QWOP - Lemmy.World

My six-year-old asked me how we walk and as I was trying to tell him a literal simple explanation of how our brain tells our muscles to move and lift our leg etc. he lifts his knee and as soon as I see his pose it hits me like HEY there’s a game that is about exactly this. QWOP! Ah ladies and gentleman, take a trip down memory lane to the absurdity and inanity of trying to get your able-bodied runner down the track in his quest for the 100m. My personal best is… 3.7m and I consider that a feat! Ah this game is the best of the Internet.

Happy New Year! ... in London!

How prevalent are bots on lemmy? - Lemmy.World

Was on the other site when a commenter pointed out a response that and like 5 or 6 replies to that comment that were all bots. I am finally getting exposed to dead internet theory. So, how prevalent are bots on a place like lemmy? Are there natural safeguards against bots? I’m not an engineer and probably need a dumbed down explanation. But I did make it to lemmy! So I’ve got that going for me…

After unprecedented autism-vaccine messaging change, scientists, advocates say CDC no longer trustworthy

After unprecedented autism-vaccine messaging change, scientists, advocates say CDC no longer trustworthy - Lemmy.World

Awful to see the steady dismantling of the CDC. There are doctors and science advocates coming together to scaffold and build up trustworthy sources of info outside of the CDC. I follow epidemiologist Katelyn Jetelina and she has a great newsletter she started up around Covid and has kept going - https://yourlocalepidemiologist.substack.com/ [https://yourlocalepidemiologist.substack.com/] She recommends the general public avoid the CDC web site now. She recommends healthychildren.org [http://healthychildren.org] powered by the American Academy of Pediatrics. Some U.S. states have also partnered together i.e. the West Coast Health Alliance that have pulled away from the CDC recommendations. A friend of mine in health noted it’s a big reason why we (I’m in California) can still get our Covid vaccines regardless of age while her sister in Oklahoma was denied. I know there are some North Eastern states that have also partnered up. Going to be very different healthcare messaging to navigate state by state…

Karl, doing his thing.

Saw an early screening of One Battle After Another - Lemmy.World

Saw an early screening in 70mm of One Battle After Another - highly recommend it! Great time. I didn’t really know what to expect other than I knew it was Paul Thomas Anderson and I’ve liked his films and I’ve seen this trailer. I laughed a lot. Acting is top notch. Benicio Del Toro chef’s kiss Johnny Greenwood score. I feel like anyone who appreciates movies will appreciate this one. I believe it opens wide (U.S.) tomorrow Sep 26.
