Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Humans are obsessed with low probablility. From the rare picture to the rare poker hand to the sports hero, we love low odds.
14·7 days agoFrom an evolutionary standpoint, we have the most advanced pattern recognition in the world. It is, in some sense, what makes us human. It is also the root of our capacity for language, reasoning, music, etc.
Looking for exceptions to complex patterns is key to our survival over great lengths of time.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Do all wealthy people in LA drive Supercars?
10·8 days agoI don’t get it. What is your fixation on wealthy people?

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•The book of Genesis is about a family dealing with very weird generational trauma
6·12 days agoJewish people bless their children to be “like Ephraim and Menashe.” They are two of the sons of Joseph and pretty minor characters in the story, but they are the first brothers who are treated without favoritism and actually get along.
Calibre Web Automated is a completely different project. I am liking it so far.
Some people have also suggested Kavita.

No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is the "Gen z stare" a real thing?
157·14 days agoNope. It’s always safe to ignore any articles about “kids these days”
Okay, I found it. I was looking in the wrong place and going in circles instead of clicking through the documentation one screen at a time. How embarrassing!
You are 100% right that it is spelled out very clearly. Thank you for the patience.
Thanks for looking into it. What URL did you enter in the server endpoint? Is it just the HA domain? Or is it another link that I have to get from HA? I’m sorry if this is a dumb question but I genuinely don’t know.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•What are your favorite low-footprint self-hosted services?English
211·21 days agoPossibly underrated: CopyParty. Its an entire fileserver in a little over 1 MB. You can host it on anything that runs python and the client can be anything with a browser. It’s unbelievably simple and efficient. If I knew self hosting was this easy I would have started sooner.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL: How The Founder Of Zionism, Theodor Herzl, Planned on Eradicating Palestinians as Early as 1890English
35·22 days agoZion is mentioned 152 times in the Hebrew Bible, a 3000 year old book. Unless you are also suggesting he is a time traveler?
It’s not a new idea. Read what I wrote above.
You’re right that many people were skeptical of his utopian view of multicultural harmony.

Today I Learned@lemmy.world•TIL: How The Founder Of Zionism, Theodor Herzl, Planned on Eradicating Palestinians as Early as 1890English
77·22 days agoThis is abject nonsense bordering on misinformation. Herzl quite famously envisioned a future state in which Jews, Arabs, and others lived in harmony and mutual benefit.
Herzl is also not the founder of Zionism, a 3000 year old concept, but of the particular European branch of Modern Political Zionism.
Depending your needs.
If it is a static calendar, they can export an ics file that you can use in any calendar app.
If you need to be able to see updates, and if there is nothing particularly private, they can make it a public calendar.
Otherwise, you may need to make a Google account.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Finally a good self-hosted calendar frontendEnglish
1·25 days agoI’ve also had pretty good testing with One Calendar, but in general I prefer open source apps unless the proprietary app offers unique benefits.

1·25 days agoI do wish they would spin off the Calendar into a standalone app, but they haven’t shown any interest in moving that direction. I use it for email anyway so I don’t mind.

Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•When people recommend Brave browser.English
7·25 days agoThere is an inherent cost to internet freedom from using chromium browsers. It gives Google, which controls the back-end, leverage to redefine how the internet works. It’s not as though they haven’t already done it on multiple occasions.
People will say things like “some websites run better on Chrome” as though that’s a selling point and not a red flag.
I’m not saying no one should use it or develop on it, but you have to be okay with the real cost.
Shame, it was a great project. Guess I’ll be migrating to calibre-web automated.
