Anyone have some favorites available here? Been getting back into reading and looking for some recommendations that aren’t the same top 100 books of all time lists that are all over the internet. Many of those books killed my interest in reading for a bit…

I often use national park websites if that is your destination. They have MVUM (motor vehicle use maps) that can be handy. These often list places where dispersed camping is allowed.

I remember a friend telling me how Prince could absolutely shred on guitar. As someone who didn’t really listen to Prince, I was skeptical. My friend showed me this performance.

I doubt debian is what you want if you want to stay up to date. It’s newish now, but won’t get updates for another 2 years.

I’ve never run into issues updating to all short term Ubuntu releases between LTS versions when I used Ubuntu. Though I’ve now switched to Debian as I don’t care about latest updates and some snaps consistently gave me issues.

Maybe Fedora is what you would prefer though?

KDE is available on any distro. Just need to install it if it’s not the default desktop.

I’m still getting numerous of these unknown errors getpixel errors for images that load fine on the web and in bloorp. I played with the different client agents and nothing worked.

Is Robertson the same as square head? It looks like Robertson has a slight taper?

Pocket hole screws are typically square and I find them inferior to torx.

I don’t understand this but SumatraPDF is my go-to for viewing PDFs on windows, since adobe is a giant sack of shit.

I’ve been on Lemmy for over a year, where I learned that there’s some difference between liberals and leftists, though what those are, I don’t know.  I also had never heard the term tankie before Lemmy.  I’ve never cared to look any of these terms up though.  Probably makes me one of them…

I have user agent set to let the app decide.

I installed bloorp a few days ago and started using it. I’m comparing it and summit. The 400 and 500 error images simply don’t show anything in bloorp, whereas summit shows the error, so yeah, not an app issue.

However, there are several images that load in bloorp and not summit, which gives an unknown error, getPixels failed with error invalid input.

There is also the feed ending and not showing additional posts in summit with the 400 bad request still while I can infinitely doomscroll in bloorp. Occasionally, though not often, clicking retry will load an additional page of results.

Edit: I tested all the user agents and none fixed the issue.

Honestly I’d start with the default config file to see if you like the general workflow and then begin modifying as you see fit.  That’s how I started way back when I first learned i3.

Maybe first replace it’s default swaybar with the more customizable waybar.

Happy sway user here!  Not sure I could ever go back to a floating window manager.   I’m too used to tiling now.

I’m still getting some missing images, the 500 error I think?, and eventually the 400 bad request error after scrolling way down my feed.

It’s definitely a change in thinking.  I fell in love with latex when I discovered it over 20 years ago.  Finally the software would only do things I commanded it to.  Word or any word clone makes me want to throw my computer out the window.

Yeah this has been occurring for me as well. It’s getting frustrating. Would hate to switch to another lemmy app as otherwise I really enjoy summit.

Top one is incorrect. Z needs to point outwards.

Planescape setting has it for you already! Bytopia.

Some others have said some good things, but I’ll add a few more comments:

Objects will continue moving in the same direction at constant velocity unless acted upon by an outside force. In the circular motion case, as you correctly state, the velocity vector is always perpendicular to the acceleration vector, which does point inwards towards the center of the circle. The object IS accelerating inwards – the water in the bucket in your example is accelerating inwards. It’s just that it is also already moving tangential to the circle and the result of the inwards acceleration is the object turning to follow the circular trajectory. It’s distance from the center remains constant instead of increasing.

This is all the ideas of centripetal acceleration from a stationary frame of reference outside of the water-bucket system. There is no extra centripetal force. In your water-bucket example, there is a force the bucket applies against the water to give the water its centripetal acceleration. Some people call this a centripetal force, but I don’t like that phrasing, because it sounds like its an extra force. A water-filled bucket sitting on the ground also exerts a force upwards on the bucket. We typically call this a normal force, so in the spinning example, the normal force of the bucket against the water is causing the water to move in a circle. Likewise, the string tied to the bucket - the string is exerting an inwards tension force on the bucket that causes the bucket to travel in a circle, and thus have centripetal acceleration. If you cut the string, the bucket stops turning and instead goes in the straight path in the direction of its velocity vector.

Now, think of the fictitious centrifugal force as from the frame of reference of someone moving in the circle. I like to use the example of you sitting in a school bus with those slick plastic-leather seats as the bus goes around a turn. You “feel” like you’re being pushed outwards. In actuality, there is insufficient frictional force to keep you turning in the same circle as the bus, so you are traveling in the straight line that your velocity vector is pointing. Thus you “feel” like you are being pushed outwards. The term centrifugal force arises because that “feel” can be modeled mathematically from the perspective of the rotating object, and we call it a centrifugal force. This term is mathematically equivalent to the centripetal acceleration term from the previous stationary frame of reference.

It’s a fun game, maybe the best realistic survival roguelike. I’ll usually play a new character once a year or every other year to experience the new updates. I finally figured out persistence hunting and can reliably get big game.

It really needs to update to widescreen though. Otherwise i don’t mind the simple graphics.

So sad. One of the most iconic and influential voices in metal.

I saw them about 15-20 years ago when they first reunited.

Wow 5th! I’m only at 3 with my nest. Hoping for one after this current pair.
