Scientists definitely do not say this though, we are really interested in cross-sensory perception, cueing, memory associativity, synaesthesia, and all that cool stuff.

hughpermantoNo Stupid Questions•Is it worth closing the lid on a toilet before flushing?1·2 years agoThat assumes that it is worth avoiding a “fecal plume”. I would think that useful research would tell us whether such a thing is actually bad for us, beyond sounding gross.

Fair point, I hadn’t looked up the specific movie / director
However, let’s not forget the whole thing was created digitally then “printed” to film, so there was never a “film original”.

hughpermanto Science Communication•How Susceptible Are You to Misinformation? There's a Test You Can TakeEnglish7·2 years agoThanks! What an incredibly shit survey. They’re asking me to judge based on headline alone without any further content. It entirely misses the point of how to judge the truthfulness of the headline - by reading further information!!!

hughpermanto Medicine•Scientists make common pain killers from pine trees instead of crude oilEnglish2·2 years agoNice breakdown. Maybe update your stats a little, we’re at nearly 8e9 people on the planet. Doesn’t change your conclusion much.
hughpermanto Science•Do psychedelics really work to treat depression and PTSD? Here's what the evidence saysEnglish1·2 years agoThe difference is that placebo is an objectively measureable benefit, regardless of whether they report being better or not.
Misreporting is a reported benefit, regardless lf whether they are objectively measureably better or not.
E.g. joint inflammation could be an example. Measurable reduction in inflammation with a calipers could be induced by placebo, even if patient doesn’t report feeling better. But reporting feeling better may not come with any measured reduction in swelling.
Placebo is not (just) in the mind, it is in the entire body!
I acknowledge it is less clear-cut in mental health, but I just wanted to answer the general question outside of this specific context.
Surely ruining the atmosphere even more is a good thing…???

Yeah, leave, stop playing, don’t give good feedback. We also do a sharp AH noise when pushing them off - not a scary/mean shout, just enough of an attention grab that they learn that we mean “don’t do that”.
hughpermanto Games@lemmy.world•What are must-have games in the current Steam Sale?English2·2 years agoNoita, my source of endless frustration and satisfaction. Over 100 hours, no standard win yet, but wow is it fun. Until suddenly, dead.
It said wire less, not wire free
My cats like attacking little wriggly things - feet are very good little wriggly things. When they were young they didn’t connect them as part of me, so always were attacking. Still have to be careful sticking my feet out from the covers after 3 years, every couple of weeks I still get a pounce.
That’s gonna get real annoying real quick, would train her out of that asap
Similarly I was gonna say a couple entries to mountain bike park, and maybe a can of coke after
