Anything that Steven Wilson has made. Dude’s a living legend.

I only do baisc maintenance and setups for my friends now.

I’ve heard of beta blockers, but I’ve never looked into it. I’m kind of hesitant when it comes to dealing with any kind of side effects.

I worked at probably the best luthiery in North America. Got let go because I couldn’t keep up. I have tremors which makes fine dextrous work very difficult. At the time I was also going through a brutal break-up too.

Really bad time for me. Also working at this place was like playing a couple good games of beer league hockey and immediately getting drafted into an NHL team. I feel like if I took another shot at it, it would go much better second time around. But it just wasn’t meant to be at the time. No matter what, it was always going to be a massive uphill climb, but I was super dedicated to doing it and doing it well. It’s unfortunate it came to such an abrupt end, but I understand why it had to happen.

There’s plenty of fiction written on this premise. It only makes sense that an LLM will write something similar to what it’s already ingested.

Now THAT is some data porn.

100% agreed. I used to hate the heat. Now I run in 30°C and, while running in that heat is miserable, I find it way more tolerable when I’m just out and about.

That song is amazing!

That damned albatross!

Withnail and I is a good one.

The Fediverse is controlled by the people. Mainstream social media is controlled by wannabe kings.

My roommate’s cat got her head through a plastic grocery bag handle then when she tried to back out of it it made a crinkly noise and she panicked. She bolted around the apartment for a solid minute with a grocery bag full of stuff in it causing absolute mayhem. The bag got caught on the leg of one of the kitchen chairs at high speed and she tore the handle right off the bag.

She ended up sitting on the arm of the couch with the handle of this plastic bag still around her neck. She looked like she had a cheapo lion’s mane. 🤣

The stone age = any time before 2005 apparently 🙄

“Un chat” is correct.

Masc. = un chat. Fem. = une chatte.

100% agree. I think its a modern classic.

“Did you tell them they were the orphans’ chips?”

Nacho Libre rules.

I don’t know the name of the instrument but its the one playing the main melody in the credits of The Legend Of Korra. Brings tears to my eyes with how expressive it is.

Theremin is beautiful too when played well.

Yeah, its food safe and everything but the whole point of soap is that it clings to the shit you don’t want on the dish so that you can rinse away all the food scraps and oils.

You can use the Aurora store for apps. You can also use Google Play for apps if you’re not super privacy minded. The beauty of GrapheneOS is that it doesn’t have to be a locked down security privacy-minded OS if you don’t want it to be. It can be just as functional as anything else with very few exceptions.

It just gives you the option to pursue security and privacy if you want.

I haven’t had issues with my banking app either but I don’t use the NFC wallet functionality and never have. I prefer to just tap my physical card.

It’s like everyone is eating the same meal, even though there’s other restaurants everywhere.

So fucking apt. Thanks for framing this the way you did. Really clears up my thoughts on how to discuss this with others.
