Hiking Anonymage 03/03/25 (Mon) 12:48:33 No.68817 [Reply]

Is there any more uplifting sport than hiking? Everyone is pleasant, nothing but good energy and very little succubi.

Anonymage 03/03/25 (Mon) 14:03:00 No.68818

Is hiking substantially different enough from walking to not fall under that thread?

Anonymage 03/03/25 (Mon) 17:33:10 No.68820

>>68818
I'd like to think so, hiking involves walking fast on an incline, for substantial distances and for long periods of time.
I personally consider them to be two different categories.>>68818

Sometimes I go for a walk to a small forest nearby while being very drunk. I think I look comical while doing this, kind of like The Call of the Wintermoon video. But it's enjoyable, very quiet. Spring arrived and birds appeared too.

Consumption free hobbies Anonymage 06/04/20 (Thu) 04:36:07 No.53574 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

What are some hobbies that don't involve consuming anything? You purchase a 1 time item and very rarely if ever have to replace it. Learning yo-yo tricks would be a consumptionless hobby in this case. There are obviously thinks like whistling or playing the spoons too. The idea is it has to make as little foot print as possible while being something you can develop and grow at. Drawing wouldn't count because you need paper.

depends heavily on the particle size

if you are chiseling and carving stone by hand outside you dont need anything crazy

if you are sawing, grinding, cutting, etc and producing dust, then you need an air filter and dust collection and a mask tbh

for wood if you work by hand, you can cut, saw, drill, chisel, etc and you dont need a mask. the moment you use powered tools though you need dust collection and air filtering and sometimes a mask

i built a shelf outside today and the dust was so bad i had to walk away after every cut and wait for it to settle. this was with a breeze too

Provided you have accessible to you an open area, get a sling and throw rocks.
It's a lot of fun, there's teriffic room to improve through distance and accuracy, and you feel good in nature.
You're welcome.
If you still feel unfulfilled, attend the TLM.

Educational Youtube videos Anonymage 04/08/18 (Sun) 23:26:03 No.42968 [Reply][Last 50 Posts]

I recently picked up this hobby of watching pop education videos on youtube. History, science, technology, futurology, philosophy etc. It really passes the time. And a quick 10 minute tidbit is very relaxing.

I especially find the science, technology, futurology, AI videos very uplifting from the usual pessimism I dwell on.

Mathematics thread 1+1+1 Anonymage 04/09/23 (Sun) 13:14:05 No.64802 [Reply]

Recently I've become fascinated with tessellation and spent the past couple of weeks collecting pictures of mosaics from around the world. Eventually just looking at them was not enough and I want to go deeper, understand the geometric shapes and its secrets better. Not even sure why but periodic tiling feels like a brain massage to me, like I'm about to fall out of bottom of how I usually perceive the world around me. So I picked up the book Geometry by Cambridge University Press. Feel free to give a hollow laugh: I honestly thought I could just skip the math part of geometry (yes I'm an idiot) and appreciate its resulting surfaces. While you can do that, if you want to appretiate geometry even at a surface level, you need to know the bare minimum of maths. The book suggested a good grasp on the basics of linear algebra and algebraic structure. I thought 'OK, I'll read the wiki entries as a lazy primer' and quickly realized I forgot even the basics of mathematical symbols. I guess it's true after all, if you don't use it you lose it.

Long story short, I'm currently going through Pure Mathematics for Beginners. The good part of being dumb is when you learn a single thing it feels like a whole new world just opened up and it feels really good.

So yeah, maths thread.

ive been trying to figure out some math for working with game graphics, but im struggling to understand how i would use these pure mathematics in graphics at all. i am a mathlet though, im currently learning basic trigonometry, then i plan on learning some linear algebra and figuring out how 3d graphics actually work. eventually i plan on learning physics too because i want to make fun physics simulations but thats way down the line.

>Modern mathematics education is a disgrace because nobody wants to learn with dozens of tedious exercises
But that is how mathematics has been taught and learned for all of recorded history.

You cannot get good at math without doing math. You need a good grasp on rote symbolic manipulation at any level of abstraction to employ it in constructing the next.

help a bored NEET Anonymage 03/19/25 (Wed) 14:35:03 No.68885 [Reply]

I need to find interesting topics to read about as all I have is my E-reader, I like history and a little bit of philosophy (I find philosophy to be mostly cognitive masturbation, please don't hate me) but it's hard to find interesting topics to read about and for me and a lot of the books are tedious to read and full of boring informations, Please give me suggestions of topics to read about, anything goes, I am willing to try anything since I am dying of boredom here, sadly I was never able to enjoy reading fiction despite having tired countless classics, I can't even explain why, it just bores me despite the fact I can enjoy films or TV shows on rare occasions.

I learned Linux for privacy/freedom, I still learning this shit is infinite, but I don't want to live in an dis-topic 1984 world, Linux help you to combat all vicious, it give you a lot of work, you need to learn, think and read.
Linux give you an more secure operating system and help you to learn a lot about computers, I become a hard pirate too.
Linux can exploit your creativity just see the subreddit /unixporn.
Is a good hobby who helps you to protect your freedom/privacy and helps you to learn about computer.
Now I'm focus on gaming in Linux.

Yes, I am posting this in Qubes. However i have a separate computer just for gaming that runs Windows. I find it difficult to pirate games in linux. Having 2 computers is really convenient if you can afford it, the best of both worlds. Compartmentalization with multiple devices is also best for security and privacy

>If another covid like virus outbreak occurs is a gas mask a valuable item for personal use, and a good investment?
SARS-COV-2 is just the flu. Typical military gas masks use carbon filtration which doesn't kill all bacteria or viral bodies. They are for absorbing airborne poisons and heavy gasses such as ammonia, and particulate matter such as smoke and ash. A gas mask will buy you time in a firey smoke and in a cloud of mustard gas, but it won't save you from anthrax or the plague.

Genocide Studies Anonymage 01/01/25 (Wed) 10:16:32 No.68481 [Reply]

One thing that completely captivates my interest and imagination is reading about genocides. Some might perceive it as an immature morbid fascination, but for me I think genocide connects aspects of history, politics and human psychology I find interesting.

I collect certain things related to genocide. I have a ‘srbosjek’ - a Serb cutter. The hand knife was used to cut the throats of Serbs during the genocide by the Croatian Ustasze.

I have always thought that beneath the veneer of human civility and empathy, most humans are under certain conditions capable of psychopathic acts of cruelty. Humans bend to social pressure with ease and our empathy is not as strong as it is performed. Lord of the Flies is an understatement.

I visited Cambodia and was really blown away by the history there. The ideology of the Khmer Rouge was fascinating. The number of people that took part in the genocide and only 3 were prosecuted.

Look at the Ukrainian genocide, it's like nature itself has decided that ukrianians are to be done away with

If their men aren't being kidnapped and sent to the meat grinder one by one, their succubi are mixing with browns and breeding themselves out of existence, it's interesting to watch

It seems almost fateful, the only lesson I can take away from it is that a nation divided is as good as conquered, if the ukranian military would've grouped together to do away with the puppet regime they'd have had a chance at survival
