  • Yup. though a lot of things are more effecient and easily understood with GUIs than command line interfaces. Imagine a volume slider. on the other hand there’s a lot of things that are much more convenient in a terminal window.

    sure. you can use amixer sset Master 50%

    to set volume to 50%, but it’s faster and more intuitive to use the GUI for it.

    GUI: vs CLI:







  • If you think about a square drawn on a paper, it’s 2 dimensional- you can measure the height and the width. But it’s still a square and it’s s on a piece of paper.

    A cube is 3 dimensional- height, width and length. You can measure them and it takes up a volume of space.

    But that cube is also experiencing changes, and stuff, and that is a fourth dimension we call “time”. We can measure it, too.

    Our universe has 4 dimensions, not three. (It maybe has more, but that’s way beyond me. I’m sure someone here is far better able to explain spacetime than I.)

    It’s not that we’re moving through space and time. We’re moving through spacetime. S Part of the reason is we can’t move through space without time because moving through space is change.










  • Probably drunk. or on drugs. or something else that incapacitated her, like hitting her head on the bottom. if you’re passed out drunk, you can drown face down in a tiny puddle.

    for the others, freezing water saps your strength. again. you can die in a tiny puddle if you’re incapacitated… which, if you can’t get out quickly, you’re going to eventually sucumb to hypothermia and… drown. If it’s a weedy section, you also may not be able to get up (getting tangled in the weeds.)(especially if your panicking.)

    honestly don’t know if barriers would be enough to make them safe. people are stupid. Drunk people are incredibly stupid.
