It’s gotten to a point where I just go ahead append a warning that I have no source and am just making casual conversation.

*A fourth dimension can be time.

Time is a very convenient choice for a fourth dimension, but “fourth” is purely namesake. There’s no reason we couldn’t describe our world in our three familiar spatial coordinates with an additional coordinate for temperature, for example. We just don’t easily conceptualize it that way because it feels less contiguous according to how we currently frame our model of reality.

Disclaimer: my sources include internet research and far too much time to think. I’m absolutely open to discussion and new ideas in whatever form.

Edit: Temperature is kind of a bad example at face value, but good conceptually. Hopefully I’m communicating my point at least we’ll enough to be comprehended.

I personally do YYYY.MM.DD for all of my personal filing. Sue me.

Edit: personally, of course.

People that say shit like this don’t listen to enough music to make such sweeping claims. Your parents may have had music tastes that you align with closer than that of your teenage years.

Not to mention that the “old music” is fairly selectively the ones that stood the test of time, while the younger generation is still experimenting and figuring things out. Expand your horizons; don’t fall victim to the bias.

Certainly. I don’t think I ever watched or played it, but I remember young me pronouncing it “zack-see-oh zack-see-oh” every time it came up, which was a lot because I lived on Flash games.

Instagram differs from Reddit in the sense that most people use Instagram because that’s where their friends and family are. You’re posting more personal things there. An alternative doesn’t really work for most users if no one they know is using it. Good luck with the push, though.
