  • Yup, I still visit Reddit daily because of the small subreddits for games I’m playing, which are barely active on Lemmy.

    I mostly stay away from everything else on Reddit, but then again I already usually did that even before the recent API changes and removal of third party apps.

    You could say I can try to contribute more to those communities here on Lemmy, but even on Reddit I never posted much and would just comment on random stuff once in a while. So it’s hard to go from that to actively posting and commenting here on Lemmy…











  • I just got started testing Google Bard, so I fed this question to it and got this reply:

    No, humans cannot eat wood. Wood is made of cellulose, which is a type of fiber that is not digestible by humans. If you eat wood, it will pass through your digestive system without being absorbed. In some cases, eating wood can cause blockages in the digestive tract, which can be dangerous.

    There are some animals that can eat wood, such as termites and beavers. These animals have special enzymes that help them to digest cellulose. Humans do not have these enzymes, so we cannot eat wood without getting sick.


  • Man, that reminds me of an art installation that I saw many years ago, where an artist set up a bunch of home electronics in a completely dark room so that their LED lights looked like star constellations.

    It was kinda beautiful and yet a reminder about all the “light pollution” we get from these devices, basically what you are talking about.

    I tried to look up the name of the artist and that art installation, but couldn’t find it.
