    This is just to say that "xi" is pronounced "ksi"an not "shi" when discussing Greek letters

    The latter romanization e(xi)sts only in Chinese

    I got my prescriptions altered today and I was miffed because it meant I would have to walk down to my stupid, out-of-the-way pharmacy.

    And then I realized

    This is a new prescription, a totally clean slate.

    I can go to any pharmacy I want.

    I could solve this whole problem.

    Safe travels to all. Happy family/turkey/etc day! Or as some say around here Pilgrim Welfare Day.

    Time to head home and hunt shinies while making pumpkin pasties for dinner tomorrow.

    my favourite greek letter to use might be sigma, because ΣF=0 is like, the ancient incantation that starts the ritual of mechanics

    but my actual favourite letter is phi and in high school phi was the letter used for an unknown angle as a matter of course

    higher education seems to mostly use theta instead. Which I dislike a lot. It's not a fetching handwritten letter.

    More often than not the assignment goes "find the angle theta" and I will go "the angle phi is..."

    Also lower case sigma and lower case theta can end up looking the same which is not fantastic: a circle/oval with a loop somewhere towards the top, or is that more towards the middle, who can even tell

    ...you're doing your thetas the wrong way round :p

    but it's still a lot of effort to make it look just decent

    whereas a good swirly phi, hooh boy, now we're talking

    I mean it probably doesn't help that my introduction to this person is him going "fuck you, the set of natural numbers can have zero in it if I say it does!"

    which is like





    no

    i mean that is literally how it works. 0 as a natural number is pretty standard these days.

    To defeat your enemies, see them driven before you and hear the lamentations of their women.

    Are any of the Nier Automata PC mods necessary like DSfix was for Dark Souls? Think I'll stream it to get it off my backlog when I finish this rimworld game but want to make sure I've got the best version without spoiling myself.

    No, thats whats best in LIFE, and it doesnt really apply anymore. Drones cant hear lamentations or care about defeating enemies.

    I started watching the video in the OP and 5 seconds in saw how long it was and I was like "what is this I'm not watching 12 minutes of basketball, let me skip ahead" and it seems like this is not really a video of people playing basketball

    I will investigate further

    a fantastically relevant point

    life's a game that you're bound to lose / like using a hammer to pound in screws
    fuck up once and you break your thumb / if you're happy at all then you're god damn dumb
    that's right we're on a fucked up cruise / God is dead but at least we have booze

    The Skateboard
