That’s the one, and the humans making plans were called wallfacers.
Sorry I wasn’t sober when writing that comment last night.
This is a topic in the 3 body problem series of books. The aliens have photons (?) that spy on everything the humans do so the humans have no way of planning against their attack without them knowing. The humans assign a few people to make plans with no oversight and without telling anyone else their plan.
Highly recommend the books.
UK keyboards have the " and the @ symbols reversed from the US layout.
And we mix and match our units of measurement. So
milk = liters.
Beer = pints.
Distance = miles (if driving).
Distance = km if running or cycling.
Distance = inches if penis
sicarius@lemmy.worldto Games@lemmy.world•WalkScape's (RuneScape inspired fitness MMORPG) developer here, we've now released support for smartwatches on iOS & a lot of new content, and we are accepting new players to the Closed Beta!English7·1 month agoHey, thanks for the game, got accepted recently and have been really enjoying it.
Sadly I’ve just come 3rd in the parents race at my kids sports day at the cost of pulling my calf muscle so it look like I’ll not be getting many steps in over the next few days.
Keep up the great work, I’m looking forward to see how it progresses.
Nope, I have a different Owen Wilson ‘wow’ for each of my contacts and apps and it has (rarely) blurted put at exactly the right time during a meeting and been met with laughs.
So I’m keeping it.
sicarius@lemmy.worldto [moved to piefed] movies@lemm.ee•Three original movies are being released in theaters todayEnglish1·3 months agoIn that case go see a different movie, if you want something original or thought provoking you’re not going to choose to watch a statham movie by accident. “Knowing is not fun ‘for you’” there are plenty of people who do enjoy the familiar, otherwise he wouldn’t be so successful.
Ii like them as a pallete cleanser, after watching too many mind fuck TV shows sometimes I need a break with some simple fun thoughtless action movie.
sicarius@lemmy.worldto [moved to piefed] movies@lemm.ee•Three original movies are being released in theaters todayEnglish2·3 months agoI wouldn’t say Snatch was a ‘statham movie’ it’s a ‘Guy Ritchie movie’. Statham is just in it. Same with the movie Spy, although it is one of stathams best roles, playing an exaggerated version of all his other roles.

That would make sense, yes, let’s go with that.
The one on the right are for users of these
sicarius@lemmy.worldto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•What peripheral do you think should make a comeback?English19·4 months agoThere’s a gun available called The sinden lightgun it doesn’t use infra red, it had a high speed camera in the barrel and monitors it’s position relative to the border of the TV. Works brilliantly on modern tvs and even projectors.
Yes slice and dice! I would hate to know how many hours I’ve played on that game over three different phones.
If you haven’t tried them yet, slay the spire and balatro are also brilliant.
sicarius@lemmy.worldto[Dormant, please move to !television@lemm.ee] Movies and TV Shows@lemm.ee•What to watch next? Just finished The Expanse3·4 months agoI really like the idea of changing actors, it obviously fits right in with the main plot od the universe, but it felt too much like they changed the character. Joel Kinnaman really cemented what the character should be to me and I guess any other actor is going to play it slightly different.

sicarius@lemmy.worldto What is this thing?@lemmy.world•[Challenge-Solved] An accessory for a niche useEnglish4·5 months agoOoh, so close.
sicarius@lemmy.worldto What is this thing?@lemmy.world•[Challenge-Solved] An accessory for a niche useEnglish13·5 months agoIs it for abseiling, you feed the rope through the small holes down on one side and then through the big role at the bottom, around the outside back through the big hole then up through the small holes on the other side. The added friction of using this over a “figure 8” would allow you to descend slower.
Possibly used in caving.
sicarius@lemmy.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•According to you, what happens when you die?1·5 months agoTry taking a dmt trip. That often is described as feeling like dying, it’s a strange other dimension but somehow feels familiar. Also the brain dumps a load of dmt at the moment of death. But that’s just the dying stage, the actual dead stage, nothing because the brain has stopped working.
sicarius@lemmy.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•if you work night shifts, do you have a life? Are you healthy?7·5 months agoI’ve always been a night person. Absolutly useless first thing in the morning. Then I got a job working nights and it just seemed so natural.
Then as I got older I got a job working offshore, working nights. So I get to wake up at 1400, have a cup of tea, go to the gym, do some other stuff before starting shift at 1830 - 0630. Then go straight to bed, and not have any disturbances until I wake up.
Yeah, the first night it a bit tough having traveled to work through the day then staying up all night and when I get home turning around to regular life can take a couple days but melatonin helps a lot with that.
I have a friend who works as a night porter in a hotel and has to sleep at home with his family doing stuff during the day, he always looks tired and I don’t think it’s healthy for him to continue that long term. I think some people are wired for days and some for nights but they still need to get proper rest whenever it is that suits them.
I read a book by the author of fight club called “Rant” where society was split into dayshift and nightshift due to overpopulation, doesn’t seem like such a bad idea to me.
Also, if you work nights make sure to take vitamin d supplements.
Everyone is focusing on the radiation. But if you used depleted uranium is wat denser than iron so horse shoes made or uranium would last a lot longer but also be way heavier.
