BleakBluets@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Golden Money Goat Loves YouEnglish1·3 months agoYeah, I wasn’t sure how the square brackets would behave in markdown quoteblocks. I don’t fully trust the post preview on mobile. Should be fixed now.
BleakBluets@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Golden Money Goat Loves YouEnglish18·3 months agoTrue, especially if you consider the line:
[15] The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed.
Sounds like Elon’s recent AI generated video of Trump cleansing Gaza.
BleakBluets@lemmy.worldtoMicroblog Memes@lemmy.world•Golden Money Goat Loves YouEnglish34·3 months agoAnd this was written before the Trump assassination attempt. Revelations 13 describes a beast healing from a fatal wound. There’s also this bit which could read like it describes a loyalist vice president who prevents economic deals with countries who don’t display loyalty to the president (i.e. wearing a hat that displays his name and number “Trump 45-47”).
[11] Then I saw a second beast, coming out of the earth. It had two horns like a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. [12] It exercised all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and made the earth and its inhabitants worship the first beast, whose fatal wound had been healed. [13] And it performed great signs, even causing fire to come down from heaven to the earth in full view of the people. [14] Because of the signs it was given power to perform on behalf of the first beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth. It ordered them to set up an image in honor of the beast who was wounded by the sword and yet lived. [15] The second beast was given power to give breath to the image of the first beast, so that the image could speak and cause all who refused to worship the image to be killed. [16] It also forced all people, great and small, rich and poor, free and slave, to receive a mark on their right hands or on their foreheads, [17] so that they could not buy or sell unless they had the mark, which is the name of the beast or the number of its name.
Edit: I see now there are updates at the bottom of the article that mention the same points I did.
Just according to kakapo. I mean kereru. I mean keikaku.

It seems the source isn’t available anymore, but here is the know your meme page.

BleakBluets@lemmy.worldto Firefox@lemmy.ml•Which are your favourite bookmarklets/user scripts?English3·10 months agoThe most convenient userscript for me is this one that automatically likes YouTube videos. It’s configurable to be able to: like the video after a specified watch percentage, ignore already disliked videos, only like videos from subscribed channels, and ignore livestreams. I like it enough that I’ve made a few pull requests to fix it when YouTube changes their UI.
When I have the time, I work on an in-progress local version to implement a few new features including: (1) Support for the YouTube shorts UI. (2) An option for a notification/toast to appear when the video has been liked. (3) An option to check the watch percentage continuously (mutation observer) instead of a user-defined poll rate which sometimes misses liking very short videos in playlists. Eventually I’d like to port something like this as a YouTube ReVanced patch.
BleakBluets@lemmy.worldto Programmer Humor@lemmy.ml•Andrew just wants to open his files on Windows 105·11 months agoI think I had this guy’s exact issue and maybe even stumbled upon his comment in that Microsoft support forum thread. It looks very familiar, but I could have just seen the meme before.
My problem was that I needed to do this for 100+ files, so using the UI individually for each file was out of the question. The eventual solution I found was in this tutorial for adding a context menu entry that changes folder/file ownership recursively. It’s been very useful!
BleakBluets@lemmy.worldto Science Memes@mander.xyz•Progress happens with every deathEnglish9·11 months agoI read this post and my first thought was “oh, it’s like how fans post videos of fun glitches in video games and then speedrunners sometimes end up finding a use for them in order to beat the game faster.”
Scientific progress is just glitch-hunting and speed/challenge-running.

I know you’re mostly joking, but that might have actually been my bad. I edited to add the spoiler tag minutes after I posted the link (mostly as a joke) even though this is probably one of the most well known plot points ever. It might have still done that if the link was inside a spoiler tag though.
I didn’t consider the bot when I commented, but next time I’ll remember not to have the clickable link text be the spoiler. That way the bot doesn’t repeat it.
Tap for spoiler of "The Lion King"
Pink: “You could be a responsible person and be productive right now.”
Green: “🥺”
Pink: “… or we could take a nap instead.”
Green: “Yes, I’d prefer that.”
There is additional context that “do the thing” in ADHD speak usually means completing the task that has been stressing you out, but that you keep putting off and feeling guilty about. Taking a nap instead, in such cases, is more about de-stressing and forgiving yourself for another day of failing to complete the task and not about being lazy. In the comic, this conversation takes place between two characters, but in reality it’s usually an individual, internal process.
Edit: Additionally, I translated “floor time” as “nap”, but it could be any non-stressful activity, even just laying on the floor, wide awake, and staring at the ceiling.
