Boomers retiring in large numbers doesn't seem like a bad place for things to stop going up for a decade or more as they gradually dump their holdings to pay for retirement. Dump unto generations who are strapped for cash trying to buy

I spent a solid hour with chat GPT writing a story about a guy who meets a talking cat that leads him to a magical word within our world (sort of like the wizarding world being hidden in plain sight in Harry Potter) and it was tons of fun.

Bad idea or not, I had never in my life opened Bing intentionally before today. I have little doubt that it will help Microsoft steal some users from Google, at least for part of the functionality they need.

I really like Keybase. I don't even use it much but if I had the choice of paying a few dollars per month or having it be shut down, I'd pay for sure. Maybe it's because development slowed down to a crawl but it has such an &

It's weird cause it feels almost condescending to the target audience of product managers and engineering leads. The product itself looks good at a glance but the inspirational style blog post makes it feel like they're trying to

Thanks for the kind words :) I don't even have kids and I have plenty of time so I need to get my mindset under control lol. TMI here but due to a feeling of wasted potential because of inattentive ADHD (treated but still), I have guil

I hate that I feel guilty for playing games which require a time investment. Factorio is exactly the type of game I would like to play. However I'm "stuck" playing games with short matches and no long single player games. It&

Never though about my taste buds in terms of dynamic range but I will never think of them any other way again. Reducing salt from your diet is like loudness management.

Same as with any asset or stock, to a lesser extent obviously given higher liquidity in regular markets.

"Voluntarily" They need a job and being a soldier is a job. A glorified one where words like bravery and valor are thrown around in the US to make people accept risking their life in a noble way. And I realize that some people wil

I think that's what he means too. Other people are talking about sacrifice. It's a job, like any other job. People do it because they want to get paid and military worship is ridiculous.

You're right, I think that it's currently the most widespread form of what I'm trying to express. However it lacks in character and clarity to be something that unites people. It's not enough of a way of life or way of t

It's an interesting read but to me this is too intense perhaps. I think it's the whole spirituality aspect that is pushed strongly and there's teachings and books and one on one sessions etc. It doesn't seem like a cult

What I would love to know is what percentage of the population have a pessimistic view of the future currently.

What interests me most about the current zeitgeist is that there is an generalized, or at least spreading, feeling of emptiness. What replaces religion to fill this gap for a new generation who is not religious? (including myself) Something

I would definitely take the time to shop on an AR/VR based e-commerce site that had all products as visible demos. For certain categories of products anyways.

Not sure if amusing but referring to someone as "it" makes it seem like an insult. I realize (per the bottom of the wiki article) that those are the chosen pronouns but still.

My parents gave us everything they could growing up and had very little for themselves. They're good and honest people. I gave them a secondary credit card on my account and told them to spend up to 1k per month on it. They rarely rea

I just use photopea in the browser these days. It's pretty much exactly Photoshop, at least for my non-advanced purposes.

I don't know which idea is harder for me to conceptualize. That something has always existed or that it came to exist out of nowhere-ish.

Definitely, I really enjoy the powerblocks. There are few things that are buy it for life anymore but weights seem to fit that category.

While it's a nice sentiment, it's not very actionable. The question is coming from someone who saw his family go through financial hardship previously. We're all in the same boat, like the people on the titanic were. OP is as

My model has a built in dryer. When I have time I let it dry for a minute before wiping while I mess around on my phone. Otherwise just a bit of extra paper on a first wipe is enough.

I got an expensive one (~usd 1000) with a remote, heated water and seat, dryer, moving nozzle, etc. There's just no comparison with just wiping. I let it spray, wipe, spray quickly again and wipe clean. Takes thirty seconds. The real p
