I bet the pirate who first said "shiver me timbers" knew right away it was fire. Him and the ship were probably cracking up all afternoon. Shiver me timbers. Shiver me timbers. They couldn't get enough.
I bet the guy who first said “dodecahedron” knew right away it was fire. Him and his boys were probably cracking up all afternoon. Dodecahedron. Dodecahedron. They couldn’t get enough

Also, in some phones you can speed up UI animations or turn them off altogether Wild how much this makes your devices feel faster
went to windows performance options and turned off the window open/close/maximize/minimize/snap animations. never before have i known such peace. computers are fast and pretend to be slow

"You are a child of this universe, no less than the trees and the stars. You belong." from a poem It taught me that my love for the world, physics and nature, could be applied to myself as self-love, because I am a piece of this beautiful universe, and that's already enough :)
does anyone have any useful sentences that will change my life immediately upon being read?

You could be about to lose The Internet Archive, one of the great resources of the internet and humanity, and you've probably not heard about it
The Internet Archive, a digital library aiming to make published materials accessible to everyone, is in danger of being shut down by four major publishers. If the publishers are successful, free access to knowledge will be in jeopardy. jacobin.com/2024/02/internet…

whenever this is brought up it will *always* remind me of one of my favourite exchanges between Sean Astin and the LoTR DoP Andrew Lesnie on the Return of the King commentary Astin- “where is the light coming from?” Lesnie- “same place as the music”
I think the worst trend in modern movies is this obsession with naturalistic lighting. Lighting is like sound design, it’s not meant to be realistic.
