I have bradycardia too. Mine is exercise induced. I used to be a sub elite runner, and my heart grew larger/stronger from running a lot. As a result of that, it pumps more blood per beat, and thus, beats slower for the same effect.

To me, bradycardia doesn’t feel like anything, because it’s not noticeably different from when I didn’t have it.

Bradycardia is not always that

Mine is fitness induced bradycardia, and to me, I don’t even notice it most of the time. It doesn’t feel like anything. The exception is sometimes, I get dizzy when standing up, which has historically been attributed to fitness induced bradycardia, but now they believe it’s specific to runners, and related to changes in the inner ear from running a lot

Never owned a car…

I did 16,000km on my gravel bike though before someone stole it

From the perspective of a 3rd party, it’s a technicality. From the perspective of the original continued consciousness, it’s not.

The problem with that line of thought is that even if it is true, it doesn’t apply here, because when you create a perfect copy of yourself, you don’t magically get a shared continuity where you experience the continuity of both the original and the copy. There would now be two independent chains of experience, and even if every chain of experience is endless destruction with continuity just being a trick of memory, there would still be two divergent continuities now, and one of those would end.

The difference is that you’d be dead. There would be a copy of you running around that thinks it is you, but you, your chain of continuity would not be that copy. To literally everyone else, including the copy, you may as well be the original, but the journey from your personal experience would be over. You would be dead and the world would continue on with a copy of your in your place, which you wouldn’t experience.

It’s never been the same file. It’s been a copy of it. Which is irrelevant in every scenario, and to everyone involved, except from the perspective of the original file, and even then, only if it were conscious.

If we give the original file consciousness for your hypothesis, that consciousness gets duplicated to the copied files, but consciousness doesn’t get removed from the original. And there are now a bunch of distinct consciousness streams, all of which smoothly continue on from the original, but none of which are the original. And if you delete the original, you delete that stream of consciousness, which makes no difference to anyone, except the original consciousness, for which, it’s a cessation of existence.

From the outside, the copy is the same as the original. But from the originals perspective, not so much…

Most people in this thread are coming up with an answer though. They can’t all have synesthesia!

Most people here clearly see some connection, or have some sort of “default colour” for the letter.

But unless I picked a colour at random, I couldn’t answer this question.

I had to put the drone up to get a good view of it, but I got a pretty good photo too!

I don’t even understand the question.

I mean, I know what you’re asking, but I don’t know how to answer it. Letters don’t have colours. They don’t have anything. Maybe it’s my aphantasia, but I don’t understand how a letter can have an innate colour or what that would even mean.

Transphobia, racism, misogyny…

Bumblebees are not aggressive, and even though they can sting without dying (unlike honeybees), they generally don’t. It would be like getting bitten by a Labrador. It’s possible, but something went wrong somewhere for things to end that way…

That’s just how lemmy works when you ban with content deletion. It needs to work that way so that the content removal for content posted to local communities federates correctly

Yep, pretty much. We also don’t care if people ban evade, if evading the ban means they stop the behaviour that got them banned the first time around.

The goal is to make a safe community, not to punish people.

I am banned from a bunch of blahaj because I said that they were as bad as ml once.

No, you were banned from blahaj because you were arguing that DEI is bad, and that there is no such thing as stolen land, because “everyone does it”

That won’t be terribly meaningful. lbz has a huge defederation list, because we seeded our defederation list with defeds from our sharkey instance. So as a result, lbz has hundreds of defeds of dead instances from 3 years ago and defeds of mastodon, pleroma and other instances that have never interacted with the threadiverse in any meaningful way.

If you’re just trying to work out how much of the threadiverse each threadiverse instances has defederated, you’d need to do a bit of filtering on the results.

tfw I was one of the mods there :P

Zagoroth and I both came from Reddit to this community at around the same time, so there’s at least 2 of us from the great /r/brisbane migration :p

The tl;dr answer is that it’s axiomatic. It’s built in to the model, and if it weren’t true, the model wouldn’t work.

More broadly though, symmetry in relativity exists because there is no way of distinguishing the “truth”. No one point of reference is more correct. You can’t tell who is truly moving, because as you highlight, A is moving away from B is just as valid as B is moving away from A.

Acceleration breaks symmetry though, because you can measure it. You can tell whether it’s A or B that’s accelerating, and there is a “right” answer.
