Binary Large Octopus

quiz spoiler 

@Pat @willzy There is apparently (at least in the movie) a school in New York which is named after him and which plays a central role in the movie, therefore the name is part of the villain's riddle. That made him quite memorable for me.

@Pat @willzy I think Niels Bohr is a name one should have heard before.
Personally, I know Chester A. Arthur being the 21th US president from the quality education material called "Die Hard: With A Vengeance" :blobsmilesweat:

As a professional in and , I'm used to feel almost physical pain whenever security-related topics or "hacking" is depicted in movies or TV series. Presentation usually ranges from half-correct terminology without relation to the current situation to outright ridiculous chaining of technical terms without ever trying to make any sense.

I've always wondered if this is similar in other areas. Professionals of other field, how do you see your profession being represented in entertainment media?

Now it's just to hope that Twitter will finally serve as a warning example for people not to rely on centralized platforms. The purposes of Facebook, Instagram, Github, Reddit, Stackoverflow and the like may differ, the fundamental problems however are the same. Hopefully the next great migrations take place before forcefully initiated by a platform meltdown.

the New Fediverse Admin Starter Pack needs to include a copy of the Paradox of Tolerance.

If you tolerate intolerance, your space becomes intolerant.

The only way to ensure a tolerance space is to be extremely intolerant of intolerance.

I love atheists because they don’t try to takeover the government to force their lack of beliefs on others.

Math isn't for everyone. Let me explain this. If you have 100k vaccinated people and 10,000 unvaccinated people, and they die in equal numbers, it's clear that vaccinated people fair better even though the numbers are the same. 100/100k < 100/10k

Ich glaube dass mittlerweile die Grünen insgesamt nicht mehr zu den Grünen passen: Laufzeitverlängerung für AKWs, Waffenlieferungen, kein Verständnis für Klimaproteste... Von den Einzelfällen mag man halten was man will, aber nach grüner Partei klingt das nicht mehr.

this is new to me:
Objects move in spacetime at the speed of light. A stationary object isn’t moving through space at all, moving through time at the speed of light.
an object moving through space at the speed of light has no speed to move through time

for the unusual taste:

Robur, Master of the World (1961)

Vincent Price, Marlon Brando and a zeppelin - enough said!

The plot, losely basing on two novels by Jules Verne, revolves around a fanatic pacifist (), who tries to bring peace to the world by attacking military targets with his heavily armed zeppelin.
The premise of the movie is still relevant, as the notion of a self-declared savior of the world with questionable methods seems to mirror so many occurrences in this world on so many levels. Apart from that, this movie is wildly entertaining
