  • Oh I don’t want to be confrontational at all! I am just trying to understand what I am missing, as usually I am nitpicky with perspective too but could not spot the mistake there! Please dont see that as a very serious or angry argument!

    I am not assuming a ship, but a cave, so from a point of view of low altitude. I imagine the camera being horizontal, at the level of the tallest person’s head. I see 3 layers on the background: the canyon wall on the right, fairly close, the small ridge with what looks like a nice ski slope on it and a big mountain in the background. Granted, that one is huge, you may need a 1500 or 2000m differential between the window and the background mountain top but I think I could find such spots on Google Earth in the Alps or the Himalayas.





  • That’s really interesting! It shows which communities share users. I am part of jlai.lu, a french-speaking community that is relatively isolated by also slrpnk.net that seems very spread out!

    Would it make sense to compute the standard deviation of each instance’s communities? It would give an idea of which are islands and which are more extended. Not sure if it makes sense to compute it more on 2 dimensions or on the original 21934 though.







  • In the barren lands the faint sobbing voices of innocents dying was generally unheard by anyone except the uncaring cold winter tundra. Yet, occasionally, through some obscure motive of a somber chtonian deity, the useless tears would be magnified as drops of martyr blood calling for more blood. It would become a beacon of red light for the righteous and the outraged. Grief turned to flame and blood. Indifference turned into fire and statu-quo into chaos. In such times despair could become hope and indifference was banned. But even the heroes of these times of change knew better than to praise the nightly hands that ignited the ashes.
