Even today, Alcibiades divides scholars. For Malcolm F. McGregor, former head of the Department of Classics in the University of British Columbia, Alcibiades was rather a shrewd gambler than a mere opportunist.[149] Evangelos P. Fotiadis, a prominent Greek philologist, asserts that Alcibiades was "a first class diplomat" and had "huge skills".

"mirror mirror on the wall, who's the fairest of them all"

cool things I just learned about the Japanese version of that phrase:
  • "mirror mirror" is "鏡よ鏡", lit. "mirror, hey mirror"
  • it took me a solid 15 minutes to figure out that the top left character was just 美. This is because I'm not good at stroke order! And also, Japanese handwriting is the absolute worst.

we don't really have a non political news thread, which is something we could probably use, and this thread is like a "fun" links thread sort of thing, or, uh, interior design in my case, but hey this is pretty fun:

https://www.science.org/content/article ... rs-disease?

maybe this belongs in the long reads actually, but i can sum it up pretty quickly. it turns out two decades ago a guy made up some shit because apparently that's all you gotta do in the science industry and then unfortunately a whole lot, a whole lot of research into the thing, two decades worth, became based on this totally made up thing, so, uh, so much for alzheimer research i guess

As federal agencies, universities, and journals quietly investigate Schrag’s concerns, he decided to try to speed up the process by providing his findings to Science. He knows the move could have personal consequences. By calling out powerful agencies, journals, and scientists, Schrag might jeopardize grants and publications essential to his success.

Yeah if I didn't go to my LGS I would have 1 place. And it still feels like too few places, maybe you really do need exactly 3.

I really like the idea of a rhythm game where making a mistake has an audible effect on the song

It makes the game very funny
