I like to ask a variety of questions, sometimes silly, serious, and/or strange. Never asking in an attempt to pester or “just asking questions” stuff.


Will I migrate from Lemm.ee to elsewhere? I don't know yet. If I do, you'll see here. If not, never stop questioning everything!

  • Have you tried using your subscribed feed, other custom feeds, and interfaces that enable keyword filtering?

  • Let's say ethically better then, to be more specific and explicit. Although, if we want to talk rock bottom ethically, I think we'd have to go darkweb, no?

  • Good points! Although I feel like I may be out of the loop on some of the discussion/mention of archive.org stuff, which likely speaks to me being out of it more broadly regarding discussions of other related materials.

  • Kind of surprised there aren't more comments along these lines. This was floating around the back of my head as much as some of the other responses.

  • I mostly agree, and it's the secondary part, the lack of punishment/consequences that led to asking this question. If the criticism is ineffective at persuading others toward your views, does it outweigh whatever attention/awareness it's giving the subject?

  • That disconnect in expectations is definitely what I had in mind in asking this, yeah. One hears game, thinks fun, it doesn't fit their idea of fun, and the game unintentionally disappoints in the process.

  • Or like some exhibits in a museum, but also media like Flower. It's called a video game, but I feel like that's for lack of a better term more than anything. It's lovely whatever you may call it.

  • I knew I forgot something, sorry...I'm asking in terms of crafted, interactive activities that aren't necessarily aiming to be fun. More like a little dry but still interesting and thought-provoking.

  • yeah, but you gave me an even better idea: fake eggs filled with even more dampening material! it would be eggstravagant!

  • is this how you start a polyamorous relationship?

  • but something as simple and cheap as paper egg cartons on your walls will greatly reduce how much sound gets through.

    Hadn't come across this before, thanks!

    would keeping and rotating the eggs improve the sound dampening?

  • Get a cruise ship horn (make sure it’s rated for 140-150 decibels) and play it for the entirety of the call.

    Would "TRAIN SOUNDS (true volume, horn every 5 minutes) 24-HOUR MIX" also work?

  • What does MOA stand for in this context?

  • I'm also making sure only to use drives whose S.M.A.R.T. can be read without removing their enclosure.

    That's a good call, which drives have you found that support this?

  • Thanks for the extensive response! I appreciate the perspective, particularly the nuances on peer review, and the grounded conclusion.

  • ...Does NASA have something on the web that lets people ping the Moon, by any chance?

  • It’s peer reviewed if it has the name of a peer-reviewed journal on it.

    Where do journals indicate that they are?

  • Does it work offline now?
