"Picture baby Jesus,with better abs" -- Daniel Tosh

His jokes only get better the less context you give.

Interesting fact of the day.. a magnetic compass (when properly designed) doesn't just tell you the direction to north and south poles, it also tells you how far north or south you are (latitude), Simply put magnetic dip (the tendency for a magnetic compass to dip down or up) can be measured and used to determine latitude or compass direction.

I suspect the only reason we dont have digital compasses that can do this is simply because GPS is a more accurate and simpler to measure. But it would not be technologically very difficult to do.

@peterdrake oops that was not what i meant to say. I meant to say "lattitude or compass direction". let me correct that now (it will orphan your comments) thanks.

@freemo Why wasn't this used to solve the famous longitude problem?

@peterdrake Because it addresses lattitude (distance north and south) not longitude (location west and east). It wasnt used for latitude because using a sexton would be more accurate with the tools of the time.

Looooolllll people actually say this and arent trying to be funny.

You are literally the mockery of the internet before you even responded.

@DeeGLloyd@mastodon.world This is literally the only thing Tucker has ever done I'd be willing to actually support him for. I mean he is an asshat so in general no. But a government saying news reporters cant go somewhere and talk to someone is a good ass reason to go there and talk to them. Journalism at its heart is about doing just that.

@falcennial

Your argument would be like saying "Its perfectly ok to ban books, afterall some books are child pornography books"....

@falcennial

What, who said you cant block an account for literal sex trafficking? How is this even remotely related to my statement?

@falcennial

Maga wantto make it so you cant access the books they dont like, Dems want to make it so you cant access the social media profiles and posts and other forms of free speech they dont like.

Whether your calling for the censorship of Trump's Twitter account, or Hitler's Mein Kampf your in the wrong. Not because these sources are correct, but because censoring access to words is not the solution it is the problem.

@randahl

@stux The idea could work for souls too, but hey just my idea, this is your baby and im sure it will be cool regardless.

@randahl

What do you think about this?

Combined melee and magic attacks for a boss to make it a little more badass :blobcatgiggle:

Still gotta work on the sounds though

@stux I always envisioned melee + magick as largely being limited by interference from metal. I always imagined that the process of absorbing energy fromt he world to replensh your mana was insulated by the metal you use, sort of like a faraday cage with a cell phone.

This worked well in my mind because denser heavier metals more apt at protecting better would also insulate raw mana absorption to a greater degree. This creates a natural dynamic where one can mix melee and magick but there is some penalty trying to overlap the two.

@taur10

To put it another way. If 0% of men are steralized and 90% of women, and people are having sex as often as possible on both sides, then 90% of pregnancies are prevented.

If 0% of women are steralized and 90% of men in the same scenario then 0 pregnancies are prevented.
