I really doubt anything so profound crossed his desk thst you could in any way say that it was responsible for his ideas. He might have been influenced slightly by things he saw but he just as easily could have had those ideas triggered by some other stimulus. His brain just worked differently, it allowed him to see the patterns and numerical relationships that no one else could. Give me one example of some technology from the early 1900s that was so paradigm shifting that it could have influenced relativity? I guarantee almost every patent he saw was trash.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What would be interesting to bring to a home made pizza party?
4·1 month agoI used to work in the kitchen at a place that many fancy and non traditional puzzas, and had the opportunity to experiment a lot. Theres lots of good ideas mentioned but the main one i havent seen yet is Brie
You can pair it with lots of things, my favourite was 3 mushroom mix and a truffle honey drizzle. Some other good combinations include anything a bit sweet and savory/spicy. A spicy pear Chutney, mango, spicy red pepper jelly and prosciutto/bacon. Play around with it but brie is amazing on pizza. Id use like a quarter of the mozzarella i usually would and cut the brie into small pieces as it would melt a fair amount, and have little islands of it spread all over. Delicious.
Edit: another good one that comes to mind is a pierogi/potato bacon pizza. Potatoes can either be blanched and diced, sliced thin and fried like chips and added right before finishing cooking, or sliced thin and blanched like scalloped potatoes. Some scallions and bacon and a bit of creme fraiche to top is really nice also.

102·2 months agoTheres literally an option in the linux mint installer to just wipe the drive and install, and it creates all partitions for you, if you dont understand what a partition is. You literally dont have to do anything except click the bubble and choose next.

2310·2 months agoYou’re not a victim for using windows, you’re a consumer. “I cant stop using windows because i have stockholm syndrome don’t blame me” is like the most unhinged take ive heard so far and is super disrespectful to anyone whos actually been a victim of just about anything.

186·2 months agoYes everyone can do whatever they want, thats the point. You don’t get some special privilege that makes you immune to people offering you their opinion though. And id think you’d be as sick of the problems with windows and the people who actively choose to keep using it as anyone else.

7·2 months agoYeah like even the use cases suggested in the screenshot: “Maybe theyre not a computer toucher and have no confidence touching computers” - great then someone should tell them how easy linux can be. My grandmas been using it happily for years and she couldnt tell you the difference between microsoft and google. “Maybe they were perfectly happy using the OS before some new feature was added” - well new features are gonna keep bei g added, and theyre likely to be increasingly annoying and invasive, wouldnt it be great to have an alternative without that dumb ‘feature’? “Maybe they’re stressed and don’t have time” - i can reallu relate to this one, i remember how much stress windows’ bullshit used to add to my life, im so glad i dont have to spend time or energy fixing or complaining about dumb windows problems anymore.

126·2 months agoContinue using windows no matter how fucked it gets, and continue feeling entitled to complain about it without anyone telling you what a dumb choice it is. Obviously.

82·2 months agoMore like the “if you use STILL use windows don’t bitch about it because weve all been there and are over it” community. Like i dont know what it is with windows users that you all wanna have your obesity support group and complain about your problems to everyone but then get pissed off when people say exercise and eat less. Thats not even a good example because theres plenty of reasons beyond a persons control why they might be obese. But i bet even the people with thyroid issues get annoyed when the guy who eats ten cheeseburgers says “my knees hurt all the time and nothing helps”

84·2 months agoYou know whats also tiring? Hearing people whine about easily avoidable problems that only occur because they insist on being tethered to a corporation that likes nothing more than fucking them over for profit. Whats the use in your complaining? Its fucking annoying. If you insist on using windows despite all available evidence at least shut the fuck up about it or learn to live with the people who think you’re an idiot telling you so.

437·2 months agoIf i have to listen to people complain, then they can listen to the rational and obvious solution to their problem. It doesn’t add anything of value you say? What value is there in your complaining? If i have to hear you bitch about something thats easily avoidable im gonna call yout out for it. It goes both ways.

I saw a band, i cant remember who maybe we were promised jetpacks? Anyway whatever band it was just finished their last song, asked the audience if they wanted to hear more and when they cheered said ‘okay this is your encore’ played two more songs and then left. I feel like thats a good way to handle it.
Im trying to understand how the top part of your comment is supposed to work? So if someone is stealing a low range product you tell them about the better product in the hopes that they’ll suddenly decide to spend even more money on it than what theyre stealing? Whats to stop them from just stealing the better thing?
Edit* also to be clear if i worked there this would be my personal policy, like if youre gonna steal something you might as well steal the best version, i just dont get how this is supposed to work as corporate policy

Whats a full setup in this context? A mouse and keyboard? You could always hook a pc up to a tv so thats not a factor… dont get me wrong if this is what it takes to get you to embrace pc gaming thats great, it just feels like before now if there were any barriers to it they largely existed only in your head. Hooking a pc up to a tv and using a $20 air remote from amazon and a ps4 controller(or even just the touchpad on the ps4 controller) to control the mouse was always possible.
