One can buy flowers, pay a cute kid to surprise a lady with them and point at you for a 100 bucks irl, and there's still enough for a drink or two. Hell, 100 bucks is enough for 1 more & refined attempt.

I had the same thought but a split second later I remembered why I'm sitting on the couch with a screen in front of my eyes on a freaking Sunday morning. There's probably something around two dozen better options where I could &qu

ok, i'm gonna try a more civilized approach: I truly believe that much of the content (can be specified but the list would be long) on the many tubes poses a serious issue, directly and indirectly, and the speed, intervals and the timi

i was indeed reacting to the title alone. shouldn't have done that. your way of questioning my fallacy (jumping to conclusions doesn't really nail it, so i'm gonna go with 'being an idiot' is quite on point) made me

yes, my bad for not reading the article properly ... classic case of wannabe-indie-thinker-judging-decades-long-training-based-on-universe-consciousness (i'm kidding but it's warranted, slightly exaggerated self-criticism)

Thinkpad 431s if you are on a low budget. It's the best performing cheap option, IMO. Obviously block access to internet nonsense. I just started using ControlD.com and it works like a charm. Or, if you have the time, make the PiHole a

The stuff keeping self-driving cars from doing backflips is not physics, but engineering. The same is true for airplanes. And most of that engineering has text-parts interfacing with electro-mechanic parts. Fuck around with one and find out

thats not a miscalculation. these miscalculations are precursors for fast track productions and deliveries, which makes two things possible: a) the shortage creates a dire straits scenario, a crisis, an imminent combat ineffectiveness but t

if you are more of a theorist, then drop any of the specific subtopics that keep you in the loop for a while and don't discuss these topics at all. if you are successful, pick up a book or stuff online that has a brutally contrarian op

for everything our logic is, it's not our main way of creating value. it's the one way we survive, hand in hand with a lot of ignorance. this planet has far more patience for us than we have for ourselves.
