good stuff!

walking > standing > sitting > lying down

Walking digests food fastest (obviously because you are moving your body/burning calories), and lying down digests foods most slowly. Gravity is also working against you to an extent

thank you for this information @SatansMaggotyCumFart@lemmy.world

Not sure - you’d have to do some research on what that article is referencing. Search “Decree of Memphis” - that’s essentially what’s written on the Rosetta Stone.

For the history of those decrees you may want to look into “Ptolemaic decrees”

The stone was a part of a steele that was displayed in a temple.

The translated text is essentially an announcement or decree for a new Egyptian regime, and wasn’t necessarily written with the intent to preserve history.

The reason why it’s in three languages is because each of those languages served a different purpose.

“hieroglyphs (suitable for a priestly decree), Demotic (the cursive Egyptian script used for daily purposes, meaning ‘language of the people’), and Ancient Greek (the language of the administration – the rulers of Egypt at this point were Greco-Macedonian after Alexander the Great’s conquest.”

^ original article btw

Ah Yueko art always so good. I have a few of her works hanging on my wall

to me having a funded arts curriculum is a sign of an fully developed/advanced education system. Of course you need the mandatory subjects for function like reading, math, science, etc. But to complete the full human experience you need subjects like history, music, art, philosophy, etc. You take those things away, it’s like removing a part of what makes being alive enjoyable, and also in parallel, the ability to express struggle in an an almost universal way. The education is no longer for thriving, but for surviving

wait they were so cute

Actually underrated game. Thanks for reminding me to schedule game night lol

Ah. I started that game, then chickened out of finishing it

Couldn’t sleep in the wee hours of the night, so I went “f*ck it” and downloaded Tetris on my phone. I really only like playing marathon mode, but I found myself enjoying the stages in the game as well.

Certain actions like rotating and hard drop or soft dropping pieces translate surprisingly well into swipe amd drag motions on the app.
