I so want either a Xiaomi or a Huawei when my current iphone dies. I don’t think there’s any way around the bs though

What makes people freak out about molotov ribbentrop is the agreement to partition states.

Made even “funnier” given that the Munich Agreement ALSO included a partition agreement: Germany got the Sudetenland region of Czechoslovakia. Truly just hypocrisy to single out the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact like they do

The “anti-conformity” dork wanting all the protestors to get in line come together in a quiet room with pillows and meditate. lmfaooooo

Hahahaha I keep one at my desk at work

Creamer was another expense when I was in college, and I kinda wanted to see if I could “make” myself like it. And now I have my scale, burr grinder, pour over, local beans…

From a comment there:

We are quite lucky that China is so bad at being friendly to its neighbors because we keep shooting ourselves in the foot. No wonder third-world countries see a moral equivalence between our countries: there actually is one.

I’m reeling, these fucking ghouls are so goddamn racist, jesus fucking christ. Saying that under THIS article is fucking unhinged. I know that subreddit is ran by literal feds, but fuck.

Public roads in Wyoming have stuff like this happen as well. A popular picnic stop at the top of a small mountain I went to once had a public road all the way to the top until a guy bought the land on both sides of the road and closed it off. Now you have to park about an hour’s walk down and hoof it to the top.

Damn, deleted in the seconds it took me to log-in for a response. Should have been a tagline

Don’t get me wrong, I love chilling out and being lazy, but I don’t think I totally agree: I don’t think work is inherently bad. It’s bad under capitalism because we’re exploited and alienated, but under communism I think it will actually be fulfilling and meaningful.

It’s pretty great, honestly. Simply trying it shows you how completely fucked the war on drugs has been.
Definitely be cautious about over-doing it, but have fun! It’s an incredible enhancer to experiences, but can make you very ok with being unproductive and lazy.

On three separate occasions this past school year, some contractors were removing asbestos from one of the labs in the basement. The only notice was a paper sign posted very inconspicuously on two of the building doors, the day removal started.
They did some sealing on the hallway that room was in, but otherwise no precautions were taken. My office was two hallways down, and all classes in the building ran like normal. Very safe, very good

Oof. Or like. You’re solving the genuinely interesting problem of designing the switch for the track, along with the trolley itself. And as long as you don’t think about it beyond that, you can mostly convince yourself you’re in the clear.
STEM is so cooked it’s overwhelming sometimes. Really hope I can find something that doesn’t make me hate myself or others.

Thinking back to the “GhOsT cItIeS” is hilarious while living in a hollowed out US city with rising homelessness and shrinking opportunity. But, hey, we’re getting a new baseball stadium, largely subsidized by the city!

Proof by ponder

Really good band Persefone from there. This is my favorite from them

The hype is massively overblown (of course) but I’ve recently found ChatGPT incredibly helpful with learning coding and data analysis in Python. It’s been surprisingly good at breaking down scripts of code I don’t understand, as well as giving me the skeleton of a model for me to use. And if you go back and forth with it, you can usually work out any kinks in the code it doesn’t immediately recognize.

I think if people don’t get any wack ideas in their heads about what they can do, GPTs can be pretty reasonably useful tools in some cases.

The thought of spending 20 minutes parking. not even looking for a parking spot but literally just the act of parking a car, for 20 entire minutes, is killing me

“Fade to Black” was one of the 20 songs (from limewire of course) my uncle put on my very first mp3 player. Shit still bangs.

I have an empty bottle of that stuff I use as decor hahahaha. The drink was pretty good too!
