The idiom "like a moth to the flame" dates to at least the 12th century, to Persian love poem "Layla and Majnun". Shakespeare references it in "Merchant of Venice."

But here's the thing. Moths DON'T fly to flames. And we're just now understanding that.

Let's talk about dorsal light response.

just some wasp resting... with moth-like antennae, and a moth-like fluffy body, and kinda moth-like legs, and--hey what the heck~

Humans on mars is a useless endeavour. I'd like to see humanity successfully create a long-term colony on Earth first. Long-term meaning sustainable for an indefinite period of time.

You know, anyone who is in a position of great power is kinda stuck in a catch-22.
If you are the leader of a large country, thousands of people will die because of your actions or inactions no matter what you do.

In order to actually finish games, I'm having to uninstall most of my games so I can force myself to play one or two at a time

"Bluesky is boring."

Social media *should* be boring. Being algorithm and dopamine poisoned is bad, actually.

When your feed dries up for the day, that's your cue to go do something else until new stuff shows up later.

I really hate the term "sideloading". I preferred the original term, which was "installing software on a computer that you own"

Every 3 years I hear about a new pokemon design that everyone is sketched out by
I don't understand why we need new pokemon???
If my child wanted to play pokemon, I would hand them a DS with HeartGold or White and they would be perfectly happy

Once I'm in my own house, with my own router, and I get an extra computer, I will be back to Linux, mark my words. But only for self-hosting a server.

I am a huge nerd about the steam controller
Hoping for some high-quality low-latency gyro in this thing
Valve's ibex (steam controller 2) and roy controllers just leaked.

There's various versions of the roy controllers.

People love a simple story...
Suppose that the tariff was collected overseas, before the products are shipped. The overseas supplier would simply charge the importer more to compensate.

It doesn't matter where the tariff is collected. The whole supply chain pays whatever they can tolerate.
"So the tariff is paid in this country by the importer, is that right?" -- Eugene Robinson guides Scott Bessent into acknowledging that tariffs are in fact paid in the United States, not by foreign governments
