I’m not a scientist, but I think it is because humans like patterns, which is what music is. What makes random banging and loud noises annoying and how is that different from music? I think the answer is that music has patterns. What makes people like or hate different types of music is that they like one pattern over another.

Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Games@lemmy.world•Nintendo refuses to repair water damaged Switch 2 consoleEnglish201·4 days agoRemember, Nintendo is a corporation and never on the side of the consumer. They are literal clowns - on the surface they are colorful and try and make you laugh, but inside they are dead and soulless.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•Republicans against Trump on X: "Shameless and vile. Trump gave people like this permission to show who they really are. https://t.co/hvAonPrwxy" / X22·10 days agoI hope you understand your comment is not constructive. I understand the rage and that it is a fact, but it doesn’t add to the conversation. You ignored that I said “regulated”. Some Republican ideas work “ok” under the assumption there is regulation.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto People Twitter@sh.itjust.works•Republicans against Trump on X: "Shameless and vile. Trump gave people like this permission to show who they really are. https://t.co/hvAonPrwxy" / X1210·10 days agoIt’s easy to say that, but it’s not that simple. Some traditional Republican viewpoints are valid. NOTE - I said valid, not correct or best. The problem is that they don’t fill the void when they take things away or compromise to find a middle ground.
An example is a smaller government. Do I agree with it? Not necessarily. Is it a valid opinion? Yes. As we see with the current administration, things are being chopped left and right. The real problem is that they aren’t replacing the void left by these services.
As an example, if you hold the opinion that the government shouldn’t be responsible for mail services, you can’t just cut it without making sure that there is something else well regulated there to pick up the slack. Regulation does not equate to unprofitable.
Not all party members feel that things should be stripped without replacement. This is just a small example.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Gaming@beehaw.org•What are signs that the game devs aren't gamers themselves?11·12 days agoWhen things aren’t balanced. It either tells me the devs do not play their game or they have a dominant strategy and don’t bother playing anything else.
I’ve heard stories from professionals and you would be surprised how many devs don’t actually play the game they are developing.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Is anyone else not feeling that patriotic for July 4?6·17 days agoMy friends and I use it as an excuse to have a get together. None of us use it to celebrate the United States or its independence.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Can it take months to get over being laid off?4·18 days agoI was laid off from a place I only worked at for a month and I could already tell I was going to hate it there. The separation was mutual, but still took me 3 months to get over it. It is frustrating to lose your income and coverage, and it is even more frustrating to have to jump through the hoops of hell known as the job market. You are not alone, and the feelings you have are perfectly normal in today’s society.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto politics @lemmy.world•Trump threatens to throw 'bad' citizens 'the hell out' of the U.S.8·18 days agoYes, this is the same turd that is upset he didn’t win a Nobel peace prize. What makes him think deporting/locking up more than 50% of the population is what a peace revolutionary would do?
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Ted Cruz's plan to punish states that regulate AI shot down in 99-1 voteEnglish873·18 days agoSo what I’m hearing is this is a bill to distract from more important things and to delay.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Left-Handed@sopuli.xyz•I hate right handed measuring cupsEnglish8·19 days agoAlso don’t get plastic measurers. Metal ones are slightly more expensive but don’t leak micro plastics and you don’t have to worry about the unit size coming off over time.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Programmer Humor@programming.dev•Types of development illustrated1·19 days agoThey may have more flavor but there is an increased risk of food poisoning or stomach issues later. On the other side of the argument, this comparison only works with higher-end restaurants as the image appears to be alluding to. Food trucks can be and often are better than restaurants that just don’t give a damn because food trucks are generally works of passion. The problem is that it is really hard to keep a mobile environment sanitized.
Assuming you have enterprise software that actually has a budget and isn’t driven by suits then dedicated roles will get you superior software that can last a long time almost every time.
Full stack is also slightly dangerous since you can silo entire features to a single person. The same can be said to dedicated roles depending on the setup, but the points of failure are much narrower if that one guy wins the lottery or is but by a bus.

I hope next season we actually get to see some real cause and effect.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Unpopular Opinion@lemmy.world•It doesn't matter what age you lose your virginity.English13·22 days agoAs much as some people hate to admit it, women have all of the (legal) power when determining when men lose their virginity (hetero relationship implied). In some ways it makes sense since women have to handle the risks and full burden of child birth.
In most civilized cultures it is expected that the men court the women. This puts men with social anxieties at a severe disadvantage.

Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Harry Potter creator and terrible fucking human says to commit sexual harassment on womenEnglish1·25 days agoWhy? We don’t need to take photos of her peeing to tell that cunt makes up over 99% of her total body mass.
Warning - not a happy anime.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldtoPolitical Memes@lemmy.world•Oh how terribly polite of you...441·26 days agoUkraine and Russia are bombing each other indiscriminately without warning. The US and Iran are giving warnings to evacuate before bombing. Ukraine and Russia are wondering why the US and Iran are giving each other warnings.
There are multiple different implications depending on which side you are on, so it appeals to everyone. On that front this comic is well done. On the flip side, that also means it isn’t saying anything, so it is rage bait.
My interpretation is that Ukraine and Russia are wondering why the hell the US and Iran are treating war as a game.
Shirasho@lemmings.worldto Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•What's one beauty standard that you don't agree with?162·1 month agoYou have it backwards. As with all things beauty, it isn’t about having the courage to do it - doing it gives you courage and confidence.
The Marines and ICE were not invited to California.
Maybe to visit the grand canyon, Vegas, or Hawaii, but other than that there is nothing here that you can’t find of better quality elsewhere.
Other countries have prettier parks that aren’t being shuttered or fracked. Our products are overpriced, and our food (much of which isn’t even ours) is unhealthy at best.
Our country used to be safe for tourists but that is no longer the case under the current government. To add on to it, you have to bribe your way in.
Stay away. Do not visit here unless you are on the brink of death and are trying to get something off of your bucket list.
