Watership down is PTSD camouflaged as children’s media.

Idk, maybe Xanth would be better than Discworld. Slightly less likely to die in Xanth, and most decent guys end up with a beautiful wife.

And if you ever get stuck you can always take a stroll down the Runthis Bayou and everyone you meet along the way will give you some ideas for what to do with yourself.

I didltched amazon for multiple reasons.

The horrible working conditions of the people that actually package and ship the products I purchased, the anti-competitive nature of their platform, and the insane amount of shit that you find combined with the impossibility of searching or browsing their website for any product whatsoever.

I still have to use it for work because it’s the only one that our corporate overseers have approved and I fucking hate it.

It’s impossible to have any amount of ethics and shop online any more.

It’s also very fucking difficult to shop in person and have ethics.

It’s nearly impossible to have ethics and exist in America.

Fuck

It’s fun, like most other people said. And for some things, it’s nice.

I have two of my doors with network compatible smart locks with fingerprint readers so I don’t need a key to get into my own house, and I have a remote garage door opener that I can fire off with my phone to let somebody in if need be.

All of the entrances to my house have video cameras over them that alert my phone if they detect any movement, and some of my lights are on schedules to let me know when to go to bed because I have problems with that anyway.

Other than that it’s kind of nice to be able to turn on all of the lights in my house with a few clicks, although many of my lights are on motion detectors so I don’t have to try to find the light switches, mostly in hallways and closets.

The one thing I have left to set up of the stuff that I have bought is a sensor for my front door.

Once it is set up, I will set it so that when I open my front door it will turn on the main light in the living room so I don’t have to try to reach around and find a switch.

Finally, it’s nice having the peace of mind to know that if I’m away from my house I can double check and make sure all of the lights are out, adjust my air conditioning so that I’m not heating an empty building, and once I’m done with that I intend on setting up a smart watering system so if I’m away from the house during the summer I can make sure that my plants receive enough water.

It’s just handy stuff. Makes my life easier, gives me something fun to do, and it can be really cool to watch my house take care of itself without me having to lift a finger.

On the old site my username was AmNotSatan, with the premise being that I may not be good but at least I AmNotSatan.

People would constantly accuse me of secretly being Satan all of the time, to which I would invariably reply, Am Not

I have no idea. I also thought it was weird but whatever whatever

Also used it to save information to the internet for future people to find if they ever need it.

I just recently I had an issue getting an OLED display driver to work on an esp8266 board, and given that it was a cheap board on a popular sale site I recorded the information so that other people when they are looking for the exact same thing I’m looking for will be able to find it from my post.

I have little to no intention of further referencing that post

https://www.thoughtco.com/who-invented-auto-tune-1991230

From 1976 through 1989, Andy Hildebrand was a research scientist in the geophysical industry, working for Exxon Production Research and Landmark Graphics, a company he co-founded to create the world’s first stand-alone seismic data interpretation workstation.

It can be if you use your imagination.

But in all seriousness, auto-tune was invented by geologists who realized that they could use math to correct information from seismographs and then they extrapolated that concept to the concept of audio frequencies.

I enjoy Linux, I’m even suse certified for what that’s worth, but even I have to admit that there is a difference between a computer that will turn on and compute with Linux and a computer that has all of the correct drivers and works correctly in Linux.

Thou shalt not be cruel

Thou shalt not oppress your fellow man

Thou shalt not put yourself before your brethren

Thou shalt not think only of yourself

Thou shalt not live in a disordered home, nor shall you allow the cities you live in to become disorderly due to your own lack of action

I like Kbin a lot, it’s a good platform and I look forward to seeing it work out the last handful of kinks and becoming a rock solid social media system

I think that thinking about it is the problem. You might do better to chill with the thinking about it and just wait for your body to tell you that there is a problem.

Fill your time with doing things that are useful and meaningful, like dieting, exercising, improving your job and career prospects, socializing with friends, ensuring that you live in a tidy and well-kept location, and setting goals and taking steps to realizing your dreams.

There is a lot to do with life that isn’t just worrying about How it ends

I mean but it is also true in hindsight simply because it is human nature to become eventually disgruntled with change.

Even people who truly enjoy change would hate it if change stopped happening.

It’s okay to let people have their nostalgia.

The military allows you to disobey orders that you find unconscionable.

That’s part of our whole don’t commit war crimes thing

Chain of command.

The military is very good about making sure that the people that participate in it adhere to the rules they are given.

People that step out of line will be dealt with abruptly and brutally. I’m not saying there won’t be dissension in the ranks, but I am saying that the number of military people that will split with their command structure is going to be minuscule and easily dealt with.

All I’m going to say in regards to any kind of American civil war is this: Whoever fires the first shot loses.

That’s the primary issue everyone is up against. They don’t want to be the ones to fire the first shot because that will justify the national guard being rolled out and a massive escalation.

It’s not going to end well for the loser.

One thing about 4K and 8K is there’s not a lot of media available for that format.

Most streaming media is going to come in at 720p or maybe 1080p unless you are comfortable with paying top dollar for your streaming.

I think you’re looking at it from the wrong frame of reference.

Technically, time is still moving forward. Time has not moved backwards on a universal scale, you have just traveled in such a way that you arrived at a point in time where your temporal reference frame is different than the rest of the time you are currently occupying.

Your causality has remained uninterrupted by traveling faster than the speed of light.

Traveling faster than the speed of light means that you have exited the universe and re-entered it at a different point.

At the point that your causality reintegrates with the current temporal causality that you find yourself in then a new causality is created.

Once again, this does not alter causality.

You’ve just put a stitch in time.
