I had no g.d. idea.
I'm a huge, HUGE Harry Potter fan, have been since I was 9...
But I'm also an ally.
So whilst I love the books, love the movies... I haven't watched or read or bought anything since Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them 1. I watched that movie and just felt awful the whole time, like my enjoyment was just completely sucked out of it.
So I haven't kept up with it. Can't believe it took this thread to let me know they're doing a huge show, teen-me would've been screaming in excitement. 32-year-old-me is just sad that that cow ruined a great world for all of us, sigh.

I ended up reading the article, as per your suggestion, and it's definitely interesting.
I will note that when I attended my neurology / psycho-pharmacology classes in the mid 2010s, there were already prevailing ideas of ADHD being related to the transmitter mechanisms, not the neurotransmitter themselves. So I wonder if these misconceptions are as ubiquitous as the article suggests, or if it's indeed just people repeating things they don't really understand, but they recognise the word 'dopamine'.

The colours etc. should remain moonlit forest anyway, so no worries on getting some stuff out of the way, we can always regrow it (and remake the natural trees!)Thanks for letting me know!!

Comment on A rant about how devices handle users with language backgrounds other than English in ~tech

WHY?! It's JUST the watch faces too, like the internal stuff understands just fine that I'm a Dutch person who wants everything in English - my weather is in celcius, my currency is the euro.
BUT NOT MY WATCHFACE, NOOOO.
Anyway, i FEEL your pain.
Here's another one: Why are CSVs, COMMA Separated Values, file formats separated by F#&£+#_@ SEMICOLONS in regions of the EU????? WHY???? Every freaking .csv I receive from a client (because I've got all my own region setting locally set to the UK to prevent this on my computer, and I just deal with the pound currency being standard) is separated by a SEMICOLON - but it's a COMMA. SEPARATED. VALUES. FILE!!!! WHO DECIDED THIS?!?!
Thank you for listening to my rant.

So there's usually an absolute max of 2 maybe 3, and then you need to get those out of there because you'll have hit the passive mob cap after 10 minutes, sigh. Ask me how I know -__-

But good one on using a happy ghast to move them, though it's ~1700 blocks away from where I need them to go, so a ghast would be very slow no?

I have started a zoo south of town :) I'm currently building enclosures and thus far have a Fox enclosure (see u/Creesch 's screenshot!) and an Aviary with far too little parrots (but I found out they're bastards to get. I have 4 now and 3 tied to a post in the jungle, but I'd ideally have like 15 total or so... Ugh. If anyone wants to wrangle them, please feel free :p).
I'm thinking I either do Sniffers or Panda's next, if anyone has any preference let me know ;)
No idea how many I'll end up building but I'm enjoying myself and they're neat little projects each, so I'm enjoying it. Later I'll finally actually make my real build - but as is tradition, I take a quarter or two before I get around to it haha.

Also, I was like 'well, I like puzzle games, and I'm pretty good at these sorts of things, let me try'. Got second place for today :p missed the number 1 spot by 1 move, darn it hah.
Really like the minimalist design of it!
An incredibly interesting article, thanks for sharing.
I find it almost unimaginable that we're still here, when I read about the locked-in syndrome tests over a decade ago in my cognitive psychology book.
How do we know all of this, but there are no standard, regularly done tests for brain activity? I mean a first-level test like 'can the patient imagine playing tennis in an fmri scan'. I'm not someone who strays towards false hope, and I'm absolutely, 100% not someone who would think my 'belief' trumps science. But the fact is that there IS NO science - hard, factual science - that would certify e.g. Tabitha's husband is conclusively without consciousness.
On the other hand, with Terri Schavio, her husband said she did not want to be kept alive on tubes, and I think she should have been removed from them way earlier. But that's because I feel like that was more about keeping someone alive in a state they never would want to be in, regardless. Even if I was fully conscious, I would never want to try for the recovery. Relearning how to do everything, even if it was possible, never knowing what quality of life I'd end up having. I wouldn't want my husband to have to go through that either.
But Tabitha doesn't know what her husband would want, and it looks like she sees a lot more signs of life than Schavio's husband.
Difficult subject to think about, but very thought provoking.
