As Pratchett said,
โ€œScientists have calculated that the chances of something so patently absurd actually existing are millions to one.
But magicians have calculated that million-to-one chances crop up nine times out of ten.โ€
I think it's from Equal Rites?

Its a 1 in a 1,000,000 chance you will get hit by a meteor in your lifetime. Even less likely it will happen today.

So, what is the chance that at some point today something, anything, will happen to you that has a 1 in a 1,000,000 chance of happening or more? In other words, how often does a day go by where something nearly impossible happens... well, the answer is it is pretty much guaranteed.

In fact every moment you are experiencing countless events that have a one in a million chance or more of happening. Try and wrap your head around that :)

So apparently Joe Biden was pro-segregation in the 70's and said he wanted to keep black kids out of white schools because he didnt want his kids to grow up in a "Racial Jungle".

People are really going to support this lunatic?

a superintelligent alien may not understand what we call mathematics. the mathematical tools we use may be built-in to their brains/bodies so they don't need to externalize ideas like prime numbers

@freemo

I have to admit, I tend to agree. I relayed Spinster after first seeing this thread and then deleted the relay after a few hours. I couldn't handle it. Toxic, negative, militant, man-hating vibe. I like Alex and I enjoy his Gleasonator site but I don't share his taste in Spinster. I don't agree with the block but I wouldn't be surprised if the reason had nothing to do with the Gab software.

I still wish I could un-relay freespeechextremist but this buggy Pleroma stuff keeps erroring out when I try. I can un-relay any other site but not that one.

@freemo might be because they all have a double carbon bond

Why is it every name that ends in -ene belongs to an elderly lady from some backwater town:

Having some fun in the lab today doing some semisynthesis on phenols using Boron Trifluoride Etherate. Everything should be done except the final distillation step ill be doing tomorrow.

Sharing this for general interest plus we have Next Cloud of course

It's clear that you canโ€™t count on large tech companies to secure data sufficiently. The more important point is that passwords do not offer sufficient security. Most experts agree that it is time for a radical change. But how? A few solutions exist!

@freemo i've created my account here yesterday exactly because of the current short rules! they are concise and, even if some may object that this is the case, i think it should be easy enough for everyone to be civilized.
