I have to use a windows box when I initiate my Reolink security cameras as an example. Haven’t been about to figure out a way to do the initial setup on them without and I couldn’t get it to run on Linux. Honestly been less of a time consuming pain to just have a windows box with the software. It’s only plugged into the isolated LAN anyway so whatever.
My brother dated a gal that did that pregnancy scare crap. He was with her for three years. Even if you wanted a kid one day, at that time even, nobody wants a kid or pregnancy like that. Glad you got out of that situation. I only have experience with the person that did it to my brother but she was very controlling, abusive, and unhinged if she happened to not be the center of attention in whatever room she happened to grace with her presence.
The fortune teller gave me some grim news, she said that I’m going to die after eating at Arby’s 8(. I haven’t been to one in decades but now I’ll never go back for sure.
I’m glad you asked. This is something I never realized how often I have brief flashes of curiosity about before I yolo it and never bothered looking up. As soon as I saw the title I was looking forward to reading what people had to say.
The most conventionally attractive woman I ever dated, and she had it all, was so incredibly negative about her body but she thought everyone else was beautiful. It actually got kind of exhausting because I would compliment her, not just her looks either, I spent a lot of time trying to learn how to compliment well while dating her. Complimenting her wardrobe choices, hair styles, jewelry; things she actively put effort into is where I’d try to deliver most of my compliments. Anyway, I felt like I was taking crazy pills because she was an absolute bombshell and the most receptive response to any compliment I ever received was “you’re biased”. I didn’t compliment her because I needed her to respond any certain way but I often wonder what happened that kept her from seeing how gorgeous she was. Another behavior I couldn’t figure out is that she almost seemed more drawn to people that would put her down, almost like she expected that treatment or it was a comfort zone for her or something.
Well this reminded me of some trauma I forgot I had buried
Nice, I get to play the game again
It does make it less funny when someone tries to politely correct and is wrong vs belligerently doing so with inaccurate information though.
I hadn’t gone to a fast food place in years and figured fuck it, on my way to a morning meeting one day where I had to leave a lot earlier than normal. I got a breakfast meal with a small coffee. That shit fucked with my insides so much it convinced me I’m just never going to eat fast food again. With how much prices have increased at fast food places these days you can go to a sit down restaurant and not spend all that much more. Wild world we live in.
I like it, surely such a society has reasonable means for law abiding and respectful people to integrate. Do you have a website or something where I could start the process?
I feel like a lot of topics could be covered in a 1 semester course that explained the scientific method, why it’s important, difference between a theory and idea, statistics, misrepresentation of data, narrative tuning in media and reporting, proven study and information retention methods. Just like a ‘this class is going to teach you to study, research, retain, and grow with the knowledge you learn throughout life better’ course. Right now these foundational things kind of exist in some capacity, if you’re lucky, but it’s easy to blow over it and just get a grade without realizing what’s actually going on while your teachers are attempting to teach. I don’t know, it’s probably dumb but I think a lot of people don’t have the tools to accept and grow with a knowledge base that is constantly evolving and maturing. So instead of maturing and growing they dig into their preconceived and learned emotional safe space deeper and deeper until they die.
Don’t lie, everyone fucked ops mom
I’m not saying it’s specifically legal, I’m saying the police never pull anyone over for speeding on this particular highway unless they are going over 10mph over or have another reason to stop someone. Almost everyone goes 5 over. A decent amount go 10 over.
That actually is illegal where I live though. If you are in the far left lane going the speed limit and not letting someone pass you will get an impeding the flow of traffic ticket for holding up a vehicle trying to go above the speed limit. In my experience that will be prioritized over ticketing the speeding vehicle.
I regularly have my cruise set at 10 over, going 80 on the 70 mph highway. Most people seem to only go like 75. In well over a decade of traveling forty miles each way doing this and not once slowing down when I see a cop in the median have I ever been pulled over. I like when cops are in the median because then jackasses tend to move over. My adaptive cruise keeps me several car lengths back but it’s still annoying that people just hang out going five over in the far left lane when there’s no other cars around. I prefer not to pass on the right but I’m not sitting behind some jackass for miles just because they think they own a lane of the road. It pleases me the dozen or so times I’ve seen a cop whip out and I’m sure they think I’m going to be pulled over for passing on their right going faster than them and so far every single time their dumbass has been the one the cop pulled over.
I kind of like how it’s ever changing and evolving, I know that sours some people’s pickles but I think it’s neat. I like how it incorporates and is built on so many other languages. I enjoyed reading a short story posted here a while ago that progressively walked backwards in time as a language and it was really neat to me. I’m an idiot though so most other languages probably do this also.
This is so cool…I wish this would have taken off. I had to find some videos to see what you were talking about in action so I’m sharing here:

This third one in rain is wild:
Playing MUDs felt like an advanced typing course to me. Especially before scripts and shit became available in the front end. Running around, going through attacks, spells, changing stances, running back to town, roleplaying with other players, reading description text and needing to figure out if a had to go through or climb something and it would get real fun if someone was fighting a mob in the room you entered. Raids and stuff were just insane. Trying to keep up with everything and typing constantly without using the mouse for anything. I haven’t thought about playing those games for a long time, thanks for the walk down memory lane!
The purpose of the ‘stupid’ safe disconnect is the same as it is today, to finalize cached writes. If you are transferring large files to the device and don’t safely remove/disconnect the device then don’t act confused because the data isn’t there when you plug it into another computer. Or do, because that’s what users do.
I have what was a bedroom next to my kitchen. Tiled the floor and painted the walls the same as my kitchen, put a stand up freezer, nice white metal shelves along the walls, a coffee bar by the door, storage bench under the window, and snack table in the center of the room. Bulk sealed packages and less often used appliances in the closet. I can store so much food and ingredients, it’s probably my favorite room of the house. I often just sit on the bench and have a small snack for breakfast with my morning coffee in there.
