What field do you work in, and how many digits of pi do you use? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] josefo@leminal.space 1 points 6 months ago

Game programmer here, lots of geometry. Usually 16 digits after the dot is ok. In graphics programming is also useful to define and use Tau (π×2), also defined to 16 digits

What method do you recommend to download Android apps outside Google Play? (leminal.space)
 

I'm looking for a certain app, that looks like it has been unpublished from GP. Googling points to a bunch of sites that I know nothing about and that could be full of stuff.

Any recommendations on good sites to do this?

For anyone curious, I'm trying to download Lightbot and others apps from the same developer aiming at teaching programming to kids.

Be thankful and be happy are different things. "Wow, I'm thankful I'm not that fucked up like the guy over there. I should take steps to totally get away from the path that leads to that place."

It's like looking your future self in a mirror, you still can do something to get away from that bad omen.

Dude, Argentina recently updated this from 100% tax to 155%. We literally pay more to the government than the full price. And this is for every purchase, no matter the amount. Be thankful that your shitty politicians are less shitty than ours, you could be worse.

What movie do you see too young, that still scares you today? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] josefo@leminal.space 3 points 11 months ago

Mosquito (1994)

My older brother really did a number renting and bringing that movie to my house. I remember I saw it on a summer afternoon with him. You know, the time of the year when mosquitoes are everywhere.

I should watch it again now, I'm sure the effects aged poorly, and maybe that heals my wounds from the past.

Nice, I'll look into it, sounds interesting. I'm definitely community driven and anarchism friendly, real freedom comes from our pairs, not from above.

This post left me thinking in something. What if we could organize, so a city-owned ISP with a built-in pihole exists? What if we can just block tracking at the metropolitan level as we do in our houses? What if we don't just stop at DNS? What if we made just one city more private? What if we start with that?
