Not every day. Hell, not even every week. Eating before sleeping messes up my sleep

Yeah I can’t drink coffee anymore. Fucks up my entire day with intense stress ans a worn out feeling after a single cup. Though it seems to vary greatly. Every now and then I “forget” this and suffer again

Yeah this. I never really cared for them, and tbh a lot of those reaction videos are very over the top or fake. But I kinda latched onto the more grounded ones this year. It allows me to rewatch some of my favorite content “with others”. Obviously it’s not as good as doing so with friends, but getting friends to watch all this content is kinda hard. If they care, they’ve probably already seen it or it’s just very hard to plan something like this. And if they don’t care then watching together won’t be fun anyway.

Last year has been quite stressful and sometimes I just need some “mental fastfood”. Reaction content is that. There’s no stress, I know exactly what will happen when. There’s just the joy of seeing someone else watch or play something awesome for the first time. It kinda makes it feel like I’m seeing it for the first time with them. And some of these people actually see or know things that I wasn’t aware of when watching. Or they come up with interesting theories about what’s gonna happen next.

Honestly, not at all. If CS paid like shit I’d still do it. Out of all the things it’s just what I enjoy most. Studying CS didn’t feel like something I had to do but rather something I wanted to do most of the time. Programming is like solving puzzles but then much cooler

Compared to most of my friends I’m not into food tbh. But not in the way that I don’t care about it. I’ll generally eat whatever and like it. I can enjoy a microwave meal or a frozen pizza. And I get very impatient with people who insist that the rice needs to dry to the air for god knows how long because it makes the taste better. Cooking is something I used to hate, so I’d always go the easy route. Either a microwave meal or something like pasta with pre-cut vegetables and premade sauce from the supermarket.

Nowadays I have changed to a diet with more vegetables and less overprocessed stuff, so I tend to just grab some veggies and throw them in a pan with some meat (or replacement), some random herbs and spices and a little bit of pasta or rice. Sometimes it’s nice, sometimes it sucks, but I don’t really care because I’ll eat almost anything and I hate throwing away food. Most important to me is that it’s healthy most of the time. But I don’t really care for recipes or spending time to prepare something nice, I have better ways to spend my time. I also really like my rice to be sticky, so I don’t really waste time on washing the rice either.

Uhmmmm can I also teleport back from Albania? If so, then sure. I hate travelling so I never really go far, being able to go to Albania and back at the blink of an eye would be chill. Going for a nice lunch walk and then teleport back. Otherwise I’ll go with the eye colour I guess, the rest is useless.

Most people I know who do that use them as kinda bookmarks. Tbh, I do also sort of do this on my phone. I keep some tabs open with stuff I still wanted to check out. And every now and then I go through them and close the ones I don’t need. But on PC I just close the whole session with all tabs when I’m done

Is it? I doubt there are many fibers in there. Unless you count the tomato sauce it doesn’t really contain a lot of vegetables either. I’d be really surprised if tomato sauce on the average pizza is healthy, it’s probably so over processed that all the fibers and vitamins etc are gone and it’s just a big carb nuke. And a pizza contains too much fat as well. A good pizza might be decent compared to most fast food, but I can’t imagine the average fastfood or supermarket pizza being a healthy meal.

Not sure tbh. I think I’m quite a bit above Dutch average, though definitely not amazing at it either. From these I’d know kitten, puppy, calf, foal, lamb, piglet, chick, cub and fawn. Though kitten, puppy, calf, and lamb are similar or equal to the Dutch word. No idea what “kit” is. But I wouldn’t use some of these words myself because they’re not really part of my normal speaking/writing vocabulary.

Uhmmm maybe it’s because I’m not native English or just dumb, but this wording confused me greatly. I figured that young goat was the only interpretation that made sense since the image didn’t show a human kid, but for non-native speakers like me it’s a bit of a weird sentence.

Got me there

That’s probably not too hard to detect based on IP. They only do it for some content though. The only content I watch that has this block is official Formula 1 content on YouTube. It’s probably something that creators can enable when they want to region lock content or something

Do you think these massive companies will add even a single line of code for something and insignificant as this? Also that one string replace maymess with Icelandic text which actually uses it.

I think these 2 factors actually make it sort of useful. As long as not too many others do this exact thing, it makes the comments with the thorn in English enough of an anomaly to probably do more harm than good to the training of the LLM. And therefore the comments are not being used in any useful way for “AI” training.

There are some accessibility and readability concerns tho, and it’s also a bit of a weird thing to do. But it might just kinda work

Having a career. At home though, nothing :3

I bought an analog camera (Canon EOS 300) for like 15 euros at a thrift store a year ago and luckily it worked. It has kinda kick-started my interest in photography. Analog photography is quite expensive tho, so a better recommendation would be to buy a cheap used DSLR. Personally I bought a Canon EOS 40D at MBP for like 80 euros, but anything like it would probably be fine.

A camera from 2008 doesn’t sound like something that would still be relevant today, but honestly it’s a great device. It’s kinda like an old manual car in camera form. If you know what you’re doing you can absolutely take amazing photos with it. It has all the buttons and options you might need, just not the fancy new stuff like face tracking autofocus, sensor stabilisation, EVF, etc.

My dad (who is a more professional photographer) let me use his professional grade lenses on this thing and the results are absolutely stunning. But even something like Canons 50mm lens is very decent. Will it beat anything modern? Probably not. But you sure can learn and take stunning pictures with it. Since then I got a more modern camera as well, but honestly the 40D still keeps surprising me. It takes a bit more effort to get something good, but it is also super rewarding.

Okay but does that matter? I recently saw a video from Veratasium about teflon and there they mentioned that teflon is too large to be absorbed by the body, it just comes out on the other end. It’s the smaller compounds used for producing teflon that are poisoning our water, bodies, and everything else with PFAS. Companies just dumping this poison into our water supply. If this is false I’m open to learn ofc.

Wtf. How did they not at the very least build in a reasonable safe state whenever the thing gets disconnected. Something like “keep current position, disable heating” or return to flat position.

But the more pressing question is: why does a bed have an internet connection? Who does this help? And why does it NEED an internet connection? Surely a few Back-up buttons for when the service eventually goes down isn’t too much to ask? Who would buy such a thing?!

We have no guarantees that you’re human, you could be a mosquito spreading anti-spider sentiment!

I have 2 spider homies in my bedroom. The past summer they caught a lot of bugs and now they’re just chilling. As long as they don’t enter the no-no zone they can stay. Jumping spiders are always welcome too

I’m not American but Dutch, but our far-right government also really hates Antifa so the answer is probably similar.

1. Antifa is anti-fascist, yeah. But the name is most often not used by all people who are anti-fascist but rather by a rather extreme subgroup of people who have a tendency to escalate protests into riots. They often seem to fight for something good, but not really with the means that are approved by the more centre-leaning average people.

2. Both MAGA and the Dutch far right are also a bit fascist, although MAGA is more advanced in that regard, so they probably don’t really vibe with anti-fascism anyway. It’s all populist politics. They outlaw the “scary left-wing terrorists” to both vilify the left and show their voters that they care about law and order.
