we gotta get back to torrent distribution, i just watched someone eat eight grand in bandwidth charges because they ran a direct-download piracy site with local file hosting through cloudflare. torrents were invented literally for this exact reason

torrents work like this

i have a file or folder on my pc that i want to share with other people. let's call it gayshit.mp3

unfortunately gayshit.mp3 is 750mb and im not paying for discord nitro so i need another way to send it

i put it into qbittorrent and it makes a torrent file. this is essentially a very small file that points to gayshit.mp3 so other computers can find it. kinda like a treasure map

i send this tiny file to my friend, who loads it into qbittorrent. their computer takes a moment to find mine over the vast expanse of cyberspace and then (as long as my pc is running and the file is still where it should be), it gets copied from my hard drive to theirs

this is the cool part: if somebody else loads that tiny file, they can download it from both of us. if i'm offline but my friend is on, the third person can still get it. this also means that if two people have separate halves of the file, they can download the other half from each other. as long as some combination of people have the pieces between them, they can all have the whole thing.

crucially this does not require a server!!! you can just upload the file to a few people and as long as they keep it, it's still accessible. as long as somebody, somewhere is still connected, it's available forever. the only way it goes away is if everybody disconnects from it.

Hm. Interesting. Apparently cortisol production depletes magnesium stores. And I have a lot of symptomatic overlap with magnesium deficiency. And it can apparently help migraine. And ADHD. I think I'm going to try supplementing magnesium glycinate. L-threonate sounds really interesting too as that's magnesium that can cross the blood-brain barrier and apparently is super useful for memory and shit.

I reblogged this a week ago because it was funny and because I was about to start taking magnesium supplements and after a few days on a half dose it appears that this may have been responsible for a solid 30% of the problems I have that aren't trauma or stress-related

I’m SEVERELY disappointed this post didn’t include the eye witness statement of the mirror crash incident in question

while we're yelling about primes. i have never stopped being mad about 1 not being a prime. i don't understand it and no one has explained it in a way that makes any sense.

oh I know this one!

so, historically, one was considered to be a prime number, though not universally. if wikipedia is to be believed, publications as recent as 1956 included one in lists of primes.

the problem was that there's a lot of really important theorems about primes that are only true if you ignore one. the biggest is a theorem so important that it's literally called "The Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic", that every integer greater than one has a unique prime factorization. if one is counted as a prime number, this is no longer true (you can multiply any number by one arbitrarily many times and get the same number), so older definitions of the Fundamental Theorem of Arithmetic would refer to "prime numbers greater than one".

and this context of primes as the components of a number's prime factorization is like, The context in which mathematicians care about prime numbers. it is the reason studying prime numbers is even a thing anyone does. so, if one were considered a prime number (as it once was), the word "prime" would basically only ever be used in A) lists of prime numbers and B) the phrase "prime number greater than one".

so, in a sense, you're right, it would make more sense if one were classified as a prime number. but the purpose of the words and symbols used in math is to describe the properties that mathematical objects have, and just in terms of practicality, "an integer which isn't evenly divisible by anything other than one or itself" just isn't as useful of a definition as "an integer which is only divisible by two factors, one and itself".

Holy god. It’s the bomb of all Drama at work today.

Okay it might be less insane than previously thought.

Basically I got in and there was an email that there was a new policy on lunch breaks which is that we are required to clock out for 30 minutes for a meal break. Which wouldn’t be a problem except we’re often staffing stores alone. And the company was like “You’re not allowed to close the store, though, just clock out and don’t get paid for 30 minutes.”

This made a lot of people very unhappy and was widely regarded as a bad move.

So our manager was trying to go over the changes and I was like, “So I’m required to clock out for 30 minutes even if I’m alone in the store for the day.” Yes.

“I am going to leave the store. I am legally allowed to leave if you are not paying me.” You will get written up.

“That violates the labor laws and this company has had to pay for these violations previously. I will leave and look at birds.”

After a very long very aggressive meeting it turns out we might be able to waive the break and still get paid but calls are flying and we still have the right to clock out and close the store if we are working alone all day. The company loves to pretend that we do not.

As a follow up on this policy the company stated that we couldn’t close the store if there was only one person on shift.

When we clock out we get an option to say whether we took a lunch. If we say no it then asks if it was voluntary or not.

If it’s not voluntary then the company has to pay us a penalty for not giving us an opportunity to take the break.

Every single shift I worked alone (which was most of my week at that time) I marked the penalty box. If I couldn’t close the store and was working alone then I did not voluntarily give up my lunch. Turns out, I wasn’t alone in doing so.

Three months later the company sent out signs that we could put on the door for lunches and an official update that we could close the store to take a lunch.

Malicious compliance their asses.

happy pride month my friends <3

those were the days... Picture the scene: Monty Python's Flying Circus ran from 1969 to 1974. Nothing, I mean nothing, had been seen like this before on TV. To really appreciate their courage and brilliance you need to know something about these days when gay marriage was not even on the horizon and most people would lose their employment if they were outed at work. The first Pride Parade was in 1970 and it was only in 1973 that the American Psychiatric Association in their generosity declared that homosexuality was not a mental disorder. Being LGBTQ+ was gradually decriminalized in various parts of the UK and a bit later in the US starting slowly in the late '60's.

Meanwhile, Monty Python was winning over hearts and minds through the funny bone. Groundbreaking.

I think Graham Chapman, the 4th man to join the scene, being gay and being a member of Monty Python is worth noting. He had a partner, David Sherlock, and was publicly open with his homosexuality as early as 1972. I just think it makes a difference in how Monty Python treated queerness in sketches when one of their members, their good friends and collaborators, is himself gay.

fetus-cakes

the Pythons did get some hatemail about Graham being gay and they would reply with shit like "thank you for telling us he's a homosexual, we took him behind the lot and shot him dead". I want to believe those who replies like that rethought their priorities a bit
