Twice the shoulders, double the sharp pain

When the love of her life left her, she washed her hands and went to the replicator for another cup.

I’ve heard good things about Nomad Goods. I have some of their other accessories for iPhone and watch, and it’s the best quality stuff I’ve ever found. I can’t personally recommend the USB-C cables or wall adapters, but I plan to get some soon. I have a leather case, MagSafe mount stand, and a few watch bands. All are incredible, but pricey.

I do have some Anker cables and they’re perfectly fine. Much better than others I’ve tried, including Apple shit. Anker also makes some nice outlet extension/USB adapter combos that are super convenient.

If you want a fancy coiled cable, try Ventec edit: Ventev. It’s amazing for the car - keeps it off the floor.

CableMatters is my go-to when I need something I can’t find above, like a USB extension cable or high-speed HDMI. They don’t feel as premium and are a bit stiff, but they’re reliable, and they just seem to make every option you can think of.

I’ve used this argument unironically with creationists without realizing it was a thing. “If God is omnipotent, why couldn’t God create something that didn’t exist a moment ago but then comes into existence with billions of years of history.”

It’s just an attempt to at least get them to acknowledge science while still leaving room for faith, since carbon dating isn’t really up for debate and cosmology offers more than enough convincing evidence against a young universe, just to name two examples.

Anyway I thought I was being creative and original… guess not.

This is my problem with YouTube’s ads. If it was a 5-15 second video ad at the beginning/between videos, plus a banner ad or ads on the side/page, that could be sufferable. But constantly interrupting videos at random points for long ass ads does not mesh well with a short-video platform.

And I also enjoy reminding people whenever I get the chance that the FBI recommends using an adblocker for security/safety reasons: https://www.ic3.gov/Media/Y2022/PSA221221

It is a good day to Balenciaga

Because of ensign.

I think we had Prime before streaming even started, so that was like a bonus.

But lately we hardly use it. The site is so janky and bloated with trash, I’d rather pay shipping and buy directly from a brand website or a normal retailer. Most have free shipping nowadays anyway.

I just bought an Apple USB wall adapter from Amazon because Best Buy was out of them. I spent like 20 minutes inspecting it and the package and watching videos about how to make sure it isn’t counterfeit. Buying a $20 thing shouldn’t be a stressful ordeal.

I recently switched from Voyager to Avelon. Voyager is great and I’m keeping it because it’s always been so reliable, but I just really like Avelon. It has a nice explore tab for finding new communities, and it’s SwiftUI, so it has that clean native iOS look to it. They’re very similar otherwise.

At this rate, toothpaste will soon be sold in tiny single-use tubes.

Hondas have 3 views, at least on my 2020 Civic and wife’s 2023 HRV.

“Wide” is for checking for vehicles, pedestrians, etc. when your view is obstructed on the sides (it’s probably more like 178, but I can see at least 200 ft down the sidewalk in both directions when backing out of my driveway, including beyond my neighbor’s overgrown bushes.) The picture is skewed on the sides though.

“Regular” is undistorted for maneuvering and seeing directly behind you. This is like the default mode you’d expect to see.

“Top-down” shows about 3-4 ft of the pavement below/behind the car for backing up close to walls, parking barriers, other parked cars, etc.

You change them with touchscreen buttons. All of them have guidelines and distance markers that move with the steering wheel.

My current car is my first car that has a backup camera, and I actually find it much easier to see backing out of a space with the camera’s wide field of view.

Driving forward, especially in a sensible normal-sized sedan, your view can easily be blocked by someone’s giant Suburban on your left and Billybob’s overcompensating pickup truck on your right, both of which always come with shit parking jobs. Your best chance is to very slowly inch forward and hope any oncoming drivers notice the front of your car moving into the lane before your windows clear the taller vehicles.

But the backup camera sees 180 degrees from the bumper, so you can always see traffic in both directions well before any part of your car might get in anyone’s way.

This is not perfect… but:

I pack small bowls - small enough to entirely inhale till the embers go out, so that no smoke comes off the bowl after. Then crack open the outside door JUST enough to blow it all out the crack, then shut the door immediately. You’re basically kissing a tiny crack in the door, then shutting it. A fan won’t work - it’ll blow a bit of the smoke up and down and all over.

99% of the smoke goes into the lungs and out the door. The 1% still smells a bit though. If you cough, you fuck it up.

Then of course the weed itself smells - not much you can do about that. But it doesn’t seep into carpet/furniture as bad as smoke does.

Since you’re using a vape, try a cart (oil) instead and use the lowest temp you can stand. Do what you’re doing or try the window/door-crack method.

If you’re trying to hide it from others who live with you, you can’t. Just go find a spot outside and leave a hooded jacket and gloves there or in your trunk (but only if it’s legal and you can’t be harassed for smells.)

Only foolproof way is to buy edibles that are made elsewhere and keep them sealed. Febreze or dry shampoo can help a little with mild non-smoke smells after opening certain edibles.

Luckily we offer a guillotine protection insurance policy for an affordable $85,000,000 per year. It’s optional, but the upfront cost could be $650,000,000,000 if you get caught in a guillotine without it. Just be sure to get dragged to one of our in-network guillotines.

Searching for any question +Reddit and finding multiple answers/discussions related to it that are usually reliable or at least lead to ideas for more research. Especially for finding products and reviews.

I still sometimes look at old.reddit search results even though I don’t have an account any more, but I think those answers will soon become obsolete. And eventually I think new questions will be flooded with low effort trash answers that would make Amazon reviews blush.

We are all landed gentry on this blessed day.

It’s frustrating to see peoples’ imaginations run wild with AI. They’re not building “sentient” machines. There will never be machines that are sentient in anything other than appearance, and we’re notoriously easy to fool in that way.

My favorite way to describe AI that I’ve heard is “applied statistics.” It’s basically just processing huge amounts of data, very fast, simultaneously, and then presenting conclusions that are usually very likely.

Yes, it will be used to make weapons that are horrifically efficient, but likewise it will be used to make defenses that are equally efficient.

I think the good will ultimately outweigh the bad. Hopefully by a long shot.
