  • Seh ich ähnlich.

    Sowohl der aktuelle als auch alte Papst kritisierten häufiger den Kapitalismus als menschenfeindlich und betonen, dass wir die Umwelt besser schützen müssen. Papst Franziskus sagte ausdrücklich er respektiert die Wissenschaft in dem Bereich und empfahl ihrem Rat zu folgen.

    Wenn es in der Politik um Migration geht, wird häufig dazu aufgerufen Menschlichkeit und Bescheidenheit walten zu lassen.

    Papst Leo sagte vor einer Woche, die Welt würde von einer handvoll Tyrannen zerstört. Es wird sich gegen Kriege ausgesprochen.

    Bei Trumps Amtsantritt sprach Bischöfin Budde eine virale Rede, wo sie ihn um Erbarmung bat und Minderheiten in Schutz nahm. Nachdem Kirk erschossen wurde und der rechte Propagandaapparat im vollen Gange war, sprach die Pastorin Annette Behnken in der Rede zum Sonntag Klartext zu dem Revisionimus und dass er kein guter Mensch war.

    Ich bin Atheistin, und natürlich machen Papst, Kirche und Menschen in ihrem Namen auch sehr viel furchtbares. Aber gerade bei Erzkonservativen und Rechten genießt sie hohes Ansehen, obwohl sie sie manchmal für woke oder marxistisch halten. Ich glaube die Wirkung davon kann nicht unterschätzt werden




  • I haven’t even left Vulcanus, though I am currently researching Gleba. Besides my starting patch of tungsten I didn’t find another without killing a medium worm. I feel like I haven’t spent enough time on vulcanus, my base there is a bit messy still, but I have all the resources I need now. Do you usually research all the planets in short succession to get all the tech before you expand your base on them?


  • I find medium worms with tanks really hard (haven’t done the bigger ones yet), because they make these magma puddles that are hard to avoid and smash the tank immediately.

    I usually set up 50 turrets in a 6x8 (roughly) rectangle and fill that with uranium ammo. I lay poison capsules and sometimes use defenders. That usually kills them, though sometimes I still need to help with the tank. If its not dead in a couple of seconds I need to try again. Maybe I’m overdoing it…


  • I have mine in a triangle. I saw it somewhere and liked it. So essentially

       X	
     X X
    

    X X X X X X X

    I have chests on three sides of the top lab that feed into it and then inserters between the labs that pass the bottles down. I haven’t had any backlog yet as long as theres always enough bottles in the chests. But then again, I don’t have that many labs. This is my first game (on my first planet, vulcanus, now) and I am taking my time, so I never fell behind on science yet.

    Because I designed this close to the beginning of my base thats more spaghetti, there is only one belt carrying all the bottles to the chests. I wired them to a combinator each and set them so that when the boxes are over a limit, the corresponding inserter between the assembler section and the main belt turns off, so that it doesnt overflow.

    I also did this because I was still experimenting with wiring. Works great!

    Where I’m from cities like Boston are the norm. When I was in a grid city for the first time, I immediately got lost on the roads because everything just looks the same.

    On the other hand, Americans seem to have a more intuitive sense of the cardinal directions than Europeans do from my experience. Which makes sense if you’re used to roads aligned with them.




  • I suppose the argument is about offshore windparks. Whales specifically have insanely sensitive hearing and can communicate over hundreds of miles, so it seems like an intuitive argument that the turbines’ vibrations affect them negatively.

    Conservational efforts are definitely important when picking a location. But in the end, it’s probably similar to the bird argument, which is not a completely fabricated concern, but has been distorted and overblown so much that it doesn’t have much to do with reality anymore.



  • I think it does. One problem we’re facing is that many people are just apathetic and keep to themselves instead of doing literally anything. Protests like these are for many people the first political protest ever in their lives. Are they gonna overthrow Trump? No. But they’re a stepping stone. People feel what it feels like to be part of something bigger, and will potentially be willing to do more. And I know that there’s leftist groups attending to inform people about further, more effective actions.

    I think people who complain about No Kings not doing anything are kind of insufferable. People always complained that liberals don’t do enough and don’t want to listen. Now that’s changing, and instead of using the opportunity to have conversations with them about how all this came to be and what’s necessary, they’re being shamed. I used to be apolitical, had I not be welcomed by empathetic people I probably wouldn’t be active today. I want to pay that forward.

    And Mercator means merchant in Latin. I thought that was because of the projection’s purpose, but turns out that the inventer’s name was actually Mercator, which was a latinisation of his Flemish birthname Kremer (meaning grocer or merchant).



  • Yes, and there’s a scientific basis to this: The double empathy problem.

    One of the symptoms of autism used to be considered a lowered sense of empathy, as autists seemed to struggle relating to other people. But that’s not the case: Autists only struggle to relate to non-autists (and vice versa), among their own both groups get along fine

    So it’s not an innate trait of autism to have lower empathy, we just communicate on a different frequency, which has to be decoded (which takes energy). If we meet someone who’s on our wavelength, communicating is intuitively a lot easier.

    It reminds of being in a different culture and meeting someone of yours.
