In addition to what @Pons_Aelius replied, it is also used as a benchmark/flex for computers, as to who can build a beefy enough machine or good enough card to calculate more digits of pi.

The answer to your question is as simple as it is unsatisfying. Additional degrees of precision in construction are only as useful as your means to use them.

If you using your saw can only cut to an accuracy of 1/8 of an inch, than any precision beyond that point is lost as you are unable to actualize it

However if you are using a saw and you’re now at the point of your personal skill that you’re measuring to the inside or outside of the mark on a ruler, then it is likely time for you to graduate between more precise form of measurement.

This video covers a lot of the interesting points around measurement and how we can never truly be perfectly accurate with any measurement of any non-discreet metric.

To give a real world example if you are off by a millimeter diameter when building a car engine cylinder it will likely fail.

I’d call it Monday personally

Don’t be so dramatic, the moderators are divinely inspired forming an absolute monarchy.

The only proper political model to implement is a tychacracy where all decisions are governed by pure random chance. Every single post shall have the following.

20% the is removed

20% the post is untouched

20% the post is pinned. If the pin count is limited, pins are organized by first in first out.

20% the user is banned for life with no chance for appeal

20% the user is made a moderator

May the odds be in your favor!

I can guarantee you that there is not a single person who would look at this symbol and know that it is the federverse symbol, the let alone whatever the hell a Lemmy is without having already known exactly those things.

This is a vanity project, nothing more nothing less.

Did anyone else accidently read Kanye?

Pesto Pasta it is! Alternatively I could go for a nice white or cheese sauce, or if those are all cheating answers well seasoned butter noodles are a good simple dish. 🍝

Lol

That’s honestly kinda sad

Baconreader’s final message

Reddit specifically said that you were not allowed to do exactly that.

I’ve just been using the mobile website

Go to lemmy.world, click the 3 bars to open the menu, click ‘create community’.

Good luck, I hope you enjoy being a mod!

It was less about trying to find posers, and more about trying to find fellows. If you’ve ever played a semi obscure game and then seen someone with a bumper sticker or decal of that game you’d get the picture.

That’s at the whole thing was very silly. Honestly the entirety of the internet at the time was much less serious and dour.

Old Reddit used to be obsessed with bacon. To be fair much of the internet was at that time.

A call sign you could use to identify a redditor in person was to ask “when does the narwhal bacon” with the response “it bacons at midnight”.

Hence where bacon reader derives its name from.

Tell me, when does the narwhal bacon?

I did not make Bacon Reader, nor did I work on its team. I’m just another displaced ex-redditor mourning the lost of what once was, and had started using Bacon Reader when it originally came out 12 yrs ago.

Didn’t Reddit TOS explicitly not allow that, and even if they did still gates NSFW content?
