The behavior in question is a viral meme just like the post. Some kitties/kiddies learn to entertain themselves unspooling the roll, some never do. In a household with the potential for some bored gremlin learning this behavior it can be safer to just not present the opportunity, even if the behavior hasn’t been seen before.

The real hack is (almost) always social.
If I encountered someone I thought was bullshitting me about some Gen alpha Internet micro genre, I’d probably just roll with it too while admiring the improv.

Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•In the same way that the glass harmonica was purported to inflict melancholia there definitely are songs that can be so depressing to the right person that they are a cognitohazard.
1·7 days agoThe Beach Boys album Pet Sounds. It’s old, but timeless. It’s not like any other Beach Boys album and probably the only Beach Boys album I have listened to repeatedly from beginning to end. Each song hits a little differently depending on where you are in life. It is the album I listen to when I’m feeling melancholy and I want to feel a little bit more okay about feeling that way by staring into the void instead of looking away. The mix of hope, joy, sadness, and existential dread are intense.

Linux@programming.dev•The new macOS 27 beta changes Apple's boot picker in a way that hides the Asahi Linux partition, preventing Apple Silicon Mac users from booting into their Linux installations.
8·9 days agoI was just saying that your own description of events made you sound like a troll. I don’t know the truth of the matter and frankly it’s irrelevant. If they are working closely with Apple, those kinds of comments on what I assume was their own public forum are an unhelpful distraction at best and potentially detrimental to their corporate relationship with Apple. You could be %100 correct about Apple and the devs could %100 agree with your sentiment, but that doesn’t mean that the social media forum they host is an appropriate place for that kind of discussion. It’s not helpful for them and only has the potential to make their situation worse. They blocked you and moved on so they could focus on the project instead of the noise. Even if your intentions were good (and I do actually believe you meant well) I understand why they did what they did.

Selfhosted@lemmy.world•Why I moved my Plex library to Jellyfin after 14 yearsEnglish
43·11 days agoNot OP, but I have similar feelings and they have nothing to do with the client or plugins. If I can’t easily and securely share my Jellyfin with the Internet beyond my LAN without resorting to a VPN, then Jellyfish is not going to come close to replacing Plex. Sharing my library securely with tech illiterate family and any browser I have access to, without modification, was the one and only reason I moved away from XBMC/Kodi and installed Plex in the first place. Jellyfin is fine inside my LAN and for my personal use, totally fails at hosting.
The 6-7 thing is just stupid to everyone else.
Sure sounds like a complaint.
Ok, Boomer.

I’m okay with the kids getting freaky with the number memes. We had out special numbers, every other generation had theirs. They can have their cool S of numbers.
Maybe that’s an E, but the rest isn’t text, it’s sheet music. It’s a shame it’s cropped because, although I’ve seen a bunch of example of illuminated texts, I’ve not often seen such embellishments on sheet music.
Yep, you caught me, I forgot to mention the very obvious detail that you shouldn’t repeat paths that you’ve already taken unless your back tracking take a new branch. But also, mazes and city grids are two very different topological spaces, so not really applicable anyway.
Think it through. That doesn’t really have any bearing. You follow a wall and turn right whenever you have the option. You’ll exit the loop the same way you came in and continue through the rest of the maze.
“Any corner will do, from there just keep making right turns. It may not be the optimal path, but it will get you out of the maze.”
A bee headbutting you is not necessarily an agressive act, could be just investigatory on the part of the bee. I’ve walked into the heart of a flowering shrub covered in hungry bees, during which they either ignored me or headbutted me. As long as “defending the hive” isn’t part of the bee interaction, they are usually very chill but remain very curious. I’m still careful when the headbutts happen because accidents happen and a confused bee tangled in hair may still sting. But I have also gently untangled a bee or two without anyone getting hurt.
Even when defending the hive, bees seem to prefer as little direct agression as possible. I’ve stepped into a clearing and suddenly found myself way too close to a wild bee hive and got stung exactly once by a bee that got tangled in my hair as I fled the approaching swarm.
I’ve also gotten a solitary wasp tangled in my hair, near no hive or any flowers, and gotten stung 3 times on one knuckle as thanks for setting them free. The bees have taught me to treat them with compassion and respect. The wasps have taught me to react with murder and extreme violence before they are even aware of me.
Both are pollinators though. So despite the animosity, I don’t go out of my way to wage war against wasps the way I do mosquitoes.

Star Trek Social Club•Star Trek: Strange New Worlds' showrunner says his biggest regret is not getting Shatner on the showEnglish
2·21 days agoInteresting take about TNG “standing on its own”. Sure that’s valid. But the first few seasons on TNG aired concurrently with the TOS movies. It’s never occurred to me that TNG is anything but a continuation of TOS, it’s Even in the name, not a spin-off, not a reboot, not an alternate timeline (until many movies later), a continuation of a story about imperialism struggling internally with morality and existential philosophy (vs. evil empire fighting rebels). New shows are welcome to be spin-offs, reboots, and alternate timelines, but (for me) not TNG.

If you haven’t grown up drinking it, coconut water tastes a bit funky the first time you try it. The first time I tried it, it was kind of funky and I didn’t care much for it. The second time I tried coconut water was after hiking several miles in high heat, sunshine, and high humidity, it still tasted a bit funky. It tasted exactly the same actually, but this time, being quite dehydrated and nearing heat exhaustion, it tasted fucking amazing. Now I love that sweet coconut water umami, so much better than Gatorade or any other sports drink.
