I knew a person who this wouldn't deter them. We were sort of friends through a common industry, and I talked to him once in a blue moon. Gave them some money after they posted a real bad sob story on FB during the pandemic and not eve

It can be caused by wearing headphones and playing music loud enough and long enough, which I had to do extensively in order to do my work and focus, because if I didn't have them on there was often 4-6 conversations that I could hear

Ooh, I own Slipways :). I don't know if I really sat down to play it (I have a bad habit of buying games and they sit for months before I get around to playing them) so I should do so. I'm working on a game I'm hoping to rele

I played Timpani for two years in high school. I never felt the need to wear ear protection. Although I did develop Tinnitus twenty years later, but I think it's more related to having to block out noise in open offices than me playing

An artist recently was banned from the r/art subreddit[1] because the moderator thought it was A.I. art when it wasn't. So yeah, we are at that point. [1]: https://www.vice.com/en/article/y3p9yg/arti

Supposedly Cleantech/ClimateTech is hiring a lot now[1], according to some articles I saw pop up recently. I did try to investigate Cleantech jobs last cycle, back in mid 2021, and didn't have a great experience, personally. Most

If you're diabetic or pre-diabetic, then the glycemic index matters quite a bit. I know someone that pretty much can't eat rice at all (or only very small servings of it) because she's diabetic and it spikes her blood sugar t

Our backyard definitely needs this, and I also hesitate to use herbicides because of pets (and insects and whatnot). Had no idea this existed. I'll definitely get one, thanks!

Counter-anecdote: I use mine regularly. It's my main source of exercise outside of walking the dogs now, between Beat Saber, Smash Drums, Space Trainer DX, Racket:Nx (basically 360 degree Racketball with targets) and Ragna Rock (and a

This might predate the web3 bubble bursting by a bit. I am somewhat adjacent to the space in my spare time (help some friends with their code sometimes) and they were getting pretty hyped up about having NFTs with A.I. personalities trained

You could just have your browser only take up half of your ultrawide monitor if you don't like it. That's what I do. You could have a second browser window in the other half as well.

I don't watch Rogan a whole lot nowadays (used to regularly before the Spotify purchase), but back when I did he spoke about Trans people (especially atheletes) way more than 5 times. It wasn't constantly, though, although it did

Happy? New Year. I get to spend NYE removing everything from a flooded basement in preparation for someone to come in and give an estimate on the damage, not until Monday since the holidays. Probably caused by the cold snap recently (got to

I've never been to Venice so perhaps I would appreciate it more after that. I did become a bit more interested in visiting Venice after watching this one video by DamiLee on Hurry Sickness and how the structure of Venice is like a laby

Needs more of an arc to the game and end more quickly naturally. Like more trash at a time as you go on, or don't ever make it so it goes down to only a single fish. I got to 49/50 and just had to keep the trash can hovering over

Meetup.com seems to be sort of back where I'm at (Chicago area). Some of the groups are now toast (including the one I used to admin), but several are back to regular events again, and there have been some new groups since. I've t

I'm sure the report is legit considering it's by Adobe, but I'm having a hard time believing it. Doesn't leave much room for anything else in the day there if people are spending that much time on it. Especially since th

You're probably right about that, I have noticed a pretty good line up on there when we had it for Silicon Valley, Game of Thrones, and Barry. But I'd expect that of HBO also. They were the original channel to go to if you wanted

It's almost completely gone in the US on Netflix also. I've had better luck watching older movies on Youtube 'Free with Ads' service, especially 80s and 90s movies, than I've had on Netflix. And there's no ads

Not necessarily. There are options to make their life short in that circumstance. Horrible and unfortunate options, but options nonetheless.

No, if I say "below zero", I mean below zero Fahrenheit. For below zero Celsius I'd just say "below freezing", which I know as 32 degrees Fahrenheit. Zero degrees Celsius is no big deal. I do long walks with my dogs

I went back to college at 28. It was a bit odd for the first couple of weeks, after that it felt normal. Graduated two years later. In the US tuition has gotten ridiculously expensive, so I would hesitate to recommend it if you're in t
