  • Anyone else having a heatwave?

  • Humans are adaptable. We live at the poles. We live in the deserts. I've enjoyed time in the Arctic and the Sahara.

    I get what you're saying, but people also spend most of their lives in a 68-72 F / 19-21 C degree bubble. That trains the body only to accept homeostasis. Of course, three hours at 110 F one rooftop can be rough, but it's also a lot worse of that's 40 degrees away from what you spend 99% of your time at.

    Less AC. Be outside more. Cold showers and mid-day workouts.

  • Americans that have just picked up and moved across the country, how'd you do it and what advice/challenges did you have?

    Jump

  • Done it a few times at multiple scales. The challenges are mostly how to deal with crap you think you need and then don't.

    First, shed as much as you possibly can. Then shed more. If you genuinely can't move all your stuff yourself, then suddenly you have added layers of logistics and expenses.

    Second, I agree with finding a sublet or AirBnB for a landing place. The worst mistake I ever made was renting a place sight unseen. The only places that desperate for tenants are one's that will make it hard to leave. 3 months in a shithole while you learn the right neighborhood and find a good place is with it long term.

    Good luck!

  • The open-source, DRM-free Open Printer shows off a working prototype

    Jump

  • But you can just refill those yourself. The biggest problem with HP printers is that it times out cartridges, even if there's ink left.

  • You paid me, a long-time Linux user, to use Windows 11 exclusively for a month: here’s how it went

  • Horray!

  • Netflix hits upon revolutionary new concept: Live TV channels

    Jump

  • Y'all, the greatest joy in my media universe is the 24/7 MST3K channel that's on one of these things. Guaranteed laugh within 2 minutes. I don't need to select the episode. I don't want each episode in a row. I want random.

  • I ask out of respect the the devs that make our wonderful distros we love so much:

    Have you donated to them and their work?

    If there's not enough money to make you give it up, how much are you willing to give to keep it alive?

    Ah, the joys of being a woman in her early thirties!

    Jump

  • Homegirl, full respect here. I don't know you, but I want you to love life. This just seems like a lot of caffeine and a lot of sleep and no result. Which, to me, indicates something not OK.

    I respect that you want to manage this yourself. Get specialist perspective, please. Maybe going the other way is the solution. Less might be more. Or maybe try that out and see if getting down to 100mg a day as one cup of coffee is better.

  • Oh shit, this was 2016, too! I think a little before Harambe, so maybe I didn't mess up the greatest dicks out joke my life would ever know.

  • I used to raise ducks.

    Had a young Drake get too excited for new ladies in the yard once, and his dick popped out and stayed out. Never went back in. Drug it around for days, stepped on it, literally tripped over his own dick. Total mess. I had to try and literally coat it in antibacterial ointment and shove it back in there. Popped right back out hours later.

    Turned black and fell off a few days later. Then, understandably, he got extra aggressive. Probably on account of his dick fell off. Also probably didn't help that I was the last one to touch it.

    Sad duck. Tasted great, though.

  • What is the greatest sentence ever written in human history?

    Yeah, that's Kelly Clarkson, m'kay?

  • A lot of people really think they'll figure both out the same day the world ends.

    So if you already know how to do #2, you can take all their stuff, too.

  • Anybody Who Thinks Orbital Data Centers are a Good Idea Is Suffering from AI Psychosis, Experts Argue

    Jump

  • No, you don't get it. (Good job on the math though, btw)

    Every AI gets to have one, huge Moonraker sized LLM space station. Grok Station 1, Gemini Geosynchronous, Claude Comet. Whatever. But all eggs in one huge solar-powered basket each.

    Staffed by 1 or 2 humans each. Required. By law. Armed people. Because, of course they should have guns in space.

    Then just see what happens. I bet it would be amazing.

  • I see it as a win-win.

    Either Elom and his fellow dipshits waste a ton of cash chasing literal pie in the sky,

    Or

    A viable commercial presence in space is validated and terrestrial power needs eased.

    Can you all not even tell this or sarcasm?

  • How will the chuds, gooners and snobs who fansplains in pedantic verbosity over a Sci fi movie misconception respond with trying to think of anything clever to say now?

  • Fuuuck. Isn't that what Signal uses?
