  • The frontend is the portion of a webserver you see. It’s the website after the server has done processing everything it needs to in the background.

    Instances in this case means a webserver which is apart of the fediverse, more specifically one that uses the lemmy API in this case.

    So tldr, a lemmy server could use tesseract in its code to have a prettier website displayed for users.


  • It absolutely is 1/4th of what remains. Rachel will be left with 9 and Tracey will have 7. They’re not going to say ‘what remains of the quarter tracy took’ because it’s nonsensical. Tracy took a quarter so there’s nothing that remains of the quarter tracy took. they’re not going to mean ‘there is only one quarter left and tracy takes It’ either, because that also is nonsense. The only meaning that makes any possible sense, then, is ‘tracy takes one quarter of what remains’, which is 12/4 = 3. Tracy takes 3, that’s the only answer that makes logical sense.

    Being repeatedly stabbed in the flesh to leave a permanent mark on yourself that signifies something important to you - that’s metal at face value.

    Plenty of people hold little-to-no value in their skin being ‘clean’, and so a symbol is more value for them than blank flesh.

    It’s also nowhere near as big of a detractor as it used to be. Nowhere near the same amount of discrimination over tatoos. Plus, they’re usually pretty easy to cover.

    Overall, who gives a fuck if someone posts a pic on their social media of a new ink? It’s barely a footnote in folks’ days, why would we care?

    In pedestrian-friendly cities, children usually just walk to school. They’re called 15 minute cities because because you can get anywhere you need, including schools, in 15 minutes.

    Also, because there’s fewer roads to maintain, and the majority of people walk, the streets actually get plowed and handicapped folks often have an easier time getting around than in car-centric cities.



  • Okay, yes, true, but they also constructed the entire N’avi language, created a fuckton of lore about the planet, and thoroughly fleshed out the lore and design of Earth and its voyage to and from Pandora.

    This wasn’t a visual feast made for the viewer, this was a feast made to employ all these skilled artisans in a massive production, and EVERYONE except the writers fucking blew it out of the water.


  • It’s not really about fault at this point, it’s about solving the issue and bringing the ecosystem back into equilibrium. Like any pest, it’s natural to put ire towards the group of organisms actively causing something to deteriorate, and thus sympathy goes away. This makes eliminating them much much easier for locals.



  • You’re aware no child left behind was literally that, and it’s a big reason for schools declining as they are right now, right? Because the standards it set were poorly thought out, and the execution of said standards was also terrible. And that was when the US government was still even mildly coherent.

    The educators - the people who actually gave enough of a fuck to go through years of college and take a dirt poor job because they believed in teaching - should be setting the curriculum. Not some bullshitting politician on the hill.
