Do you have any recommendations for dash camera solutions like you mention? I’ve been telling myself I need to get a dash cam but every time I start researching what to buy I feel like the market is a sea of wanky information and it’s hard to tell what is crap and what is solid.

Every polling place I’ve ever been to was a church… Separation of church and state, amirite? 😭

I don’t have any direct info on how it works, but I would have assumed it could be done completely offline with some sort of accelerometers. But I am a Lay Person so… ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Motorcycle airbag vests that will not work if you aren’t up-to-date on the subscription payments when you have a crash…

I’ve pondered that question a LOT… Did he think it would somehow make me go out of my way to spend time with him out of some sort of primal urge to compete with my brother? Is he a psychopath? Is his brain so fucked he thought it was real?

Sad part is, I bet he doesn’t even recall doing it, and he was just bored at the time.

When my brother and I were both in university, we lived in cities about an hour apart. We grew up about another hour away, so to visit my brother my dad had to drive through the city I lived in, passed the campus for my university, to get to the city my brother lived in. You could literally see the buildings on campus from the interstate through the city.

He would call me about once a month to tell me about the awesome weekend he just had visiting my brother and seeing one of their school football games. He would rave about how much fun it was and always say “you should come down too next time”. I would always tell him I probably would if he would tell me about it before the trip instead of after…

I started to resent my brother being the “obvious favorite”. For years we barely spoke. We reconnected like a decade later when we happened to live in the same city. One night around a few beers, we started hashing out old shit, and I brought up him being dad’s favorite and all the trips dad made to visit him.

That’s when I found out my dad made it all up. Our dad only visited my brother’s campus twice, the day he moved into the dorms and the day he graduated…

Absolutely. Nothing wrong with np++ for sure. But it does feel like something someone had to make just to make up for the shortcomings of built-in options in Windows.

Speed of ram typically isn’t a problem, but ram configuration absolutely can cause a bottleneck (that usually looks like a CPU bottleneck). The amount of companies selling a “gaming PC” with one god damned stick of ram drives me crazy. Single channel ram? In 2024 my dude?

I feel like the text editors we get by default do all the things I ever wanted notepad++ for anyway.

Is this specifically things we do during work hours more than our actual job? Or what we choose to do with our free time?

Cause if it’s slacking off at work, sadly, I am probably now a professional Solitaire player. If it’s in my free time… Well, my ADHD keeps me hopping from activity to activity so often let’s just call it “Special Projects Manager”…

Mine is like 6x8 currently… Is there any special benefit to an odd number I am missing or just the extra realestate from going to larger numbers?

What’s a shavette? Is that like a brand or particular type of double edge safety razor?

I mean, I’m gonna lose that money to inflation anyway, I ain’t getting a raise.

That’s why he said to invert the handle, like take it off and reattach on what would normally be the bottom of the lid. Like it’s inside out.

Sounds more like you’re describing ai generated content than kids.

That’s real?! TIL…

I can’t decide if that changes my answer or not… lol Seems like a cumbersome way to browse files, but maybe that’s because it isn’t how I’ve learned…

That “Unix” os from the og jurassic park movie.

I hope so at some point. Drove a friend’s tesla and fuck that thing, even the speedometer was on the fucking center tablet… Fuckin why? I don’t want to hunt for my current speed in the bloated infotainment bs.

Dating apps if you can mentally survive them.

If not, then something like meetup app, find stuff you already like to do and go to events with like minded people. Make friends and maybe something more will come along.

Either way be patient. You can’t rush something like that.
