  • A study from the University of Oxford found vegetarians have substantially lower risk of five types of cancer

  • An unfortunate issue with Lemmy. Seems to generally skew tech which makes sense but there isn’t as much scientific literacy necessarily.

  • F1 fantasy is back

  • Never tried F1 fantasy before but seems like it could be fun

  • The U.S. spent $30 billion to ditch textbooks for laptops and tablets: The result is the first generation less cognitively capable than their parents

  • I think that repetition in any form is exceedingly helpful. It probably does help to have neuronal wiring already primed for that type of routine.

  • Anecdotally I took paper notes all through college because it allowed me to retain knowledge without studying. When I tried with an iPad as a little faux experiment on myself it didn’t have the same effect. I’d argue that this issue however isn’t from the technology itself but rather how easily you can be distracted when using it. Ultimately this is something super under studied imo and something I was interested in for a while. I’d argue however that it would be better to control for mental illness or stress effects. Considering how established social media is for us Gen Z and how damaging it’s been shown for mental health (as at least one example) I’d wonder how this would affect things. After all long term cortisol exposure is bad for memory if I recall correctly. (if anyone wants source I’ll have to go dig up an old paper I wrote).

    Edit: Oh also something obvious I don’t know how much it’s been studied is the short form content and attention span effect.

  • Without hierarchies/authority figures, the bootlickers would be totally lost. 🤠

  • This isn’t an excuse they’re just weak. Many have authoritarian fathers or parents and come out vowing to never be like that or support that behavior.

  • ‘We’re no longer attracting top talent’: the brain drain killing American science

    Jump

  • I’m a data engineer but I probably dont have enough experience to warrant being looked at by companies abroad at the moment. I’m still in junior territory on paper at least.

  • I’m not in academia anymore but I’m in tech, would love to move to Europe but immigration seems pretty tough

  • That’s fair, I’m someone who didn’t particularly like Skyrim and am hoping for better writing and better combat because I liked the overall idea of Skyrim but honestly I’m assuming it’ll be more to what you’re hoping for especially if Starfield is anything to go off of. Man was that game disappointing.

  • What's your favorite band?

    Jump

  • If you’re looking for stuff similar to Polyphia specifically check out Ichika Nito and Marcin if you haven’t listened to either.

  • Probably Sungazer but Polyphia and Casiopea are close seconds

  • Huh, never played anything earlier than Skyrim. Neat.

  • Is this an actual game?

  • FR#153 – What does a Discord replacement look like?

    Jump

  • I agree with this but why are we all pitching for completely new platforms. Why don’t we all just go and contribute to stoat and implement federation instead of waiting for an entirely new platform to come up. I understand many open source people like fragmentation, but I personally would wish for more concentrated dev time on a single project. Also having one centralized place for most work makes it easier to fork later and have a solid base to work off of instead of a bunch of different ideas over and over

  • Does the fact Stoat.chat doesn't have E2EE mean the server owner can read any and all messages, including DMs?

    Jump

  • Yeah that kinda defeats the purpose of a discord replacement for me. Also matrix seems to be a behemoth that integrates super slowly. Stoat does have e2ee planned, so now would be a great time for everyone with skills to contribute. I personally am trying to hack a different desktop frontend because I’m tired of web apps before the api becomes too complex.

  • I matrix anywhere near discord? Also last time I used element I had so many issues with e2ee

  • Not a bad idea

  • If you don’t give them enough time to train then this wouldn’t be as interesting as you think it’d just be a lot of injuries

  • Voters are worried about the cost of housing. But Trump wants home prices to keep climbing

    Jump

  • Thanks for the stats! Hm that is truly depressing. Even with better turnout there are so many fricken boomers damn. I guess that makes sense given the generation moniker. Is this based on 2024 data? I’m somewhat inclined to believe that low Gen Z voter turnout is at least partially a symptom of being disengaged from the Democratic Party putting out machine candidates all the time but I of course have no way to quantify that atm.
