wow giving them wheels is a neat trick. I'd guess it sacrifices durability (compared to peg feet), maybe weight capacity as well. But the speed gains are immense!

I don't think anyone else consistently ignores my messages like my partner does. Feels bad.

I got my (very good) thunderbolt eGPU dock from AliEx.

the "less than, greater than" names never worked for me because it bakes in left-to-right directionality which isn't inherent in mathematical relations. I still also never think of them by name.

5>4

4 is less than 5

4<5

4 is less than 5

It's all true! But a student will get marked down for saying 5>4 means 4 is less than 5.

these lyrics are about a big storm but whatever

These are almost exactly the same but it looks like the second has a few small supply sites not present in the first. It would also help to know the strategic value of a city one is considering moving to, as well as that of any rinfrastructure, geographical features, etc.

 

with the right (small-ish usually) dose, set, and setting it really is a mental performance enhancing drug. increased social performance, introspection, novel ideas, even some memory recall.

does this say something about my neurotype?

 

feel like I'm encounterimg tip requests with increasing frequency, but not jazzed about the prospect of adding a 20% charge at every point of sale.

 

It seems to be happening more frequently that I'll be listening to a pod that discusses current events (online & otherwise) and they just utterly fail to describe what the fuck even happened. Like they'll just obliquely reference some event and it's assumed the listener already knows about it and is tuning in for the discussion. maybe they'll actually explain but only after at least few minutes of comments which I have no context for and can't really parse.

maybe I'm noticing this becasuse I'm recovering from terminally online syndrome, maybe they're getting lazier, but It's happened in chapo trap house, wtyp, seeking derangements, possibly even true anon(?). Never citations needed though, they're goated.

If you're a podcaster and you're going to discuss some current event please actually relay what happened (who, what, when, where, why) for your audience before making jokes about it.

idk, maybe this is a neurodivergence thing. and yes I am actually listening.

 

I got a USB midi keyboard (pictured) from a friend but I don't know what software I should use to play it.

I'm running Ubuntu with KDE Plasma and am hoping for software that's simple to setup & use. the keyboard is for simple musical tinkering.

 

I created an account and am signed in on element, what's a good way to get the feel for things?

Any room recommendations?

 

What I mean by favorite here is

"what I often find myself greatly admiring when I notice it's done really well"

gonna go with Director of Photography (cinematographer). with emphasis on the photography.

Some things I've watched recently that illustrate this role.

  • Saltburn, great use of vertical space with the 4:3 aspect ratio, lots of color and natural light. Summer is captured well.
  • Crash (1996), Lots of night scenes (always tough to get right), the setting looks appropriately dark, grimy, and mechanical.
  • Fight Club, also a (literally) dark film and looks great.
 

I need my fix, anyone got a premium feed link?

 

I noticed a trend in some online interview show recently where hosts ask guests to bark like a dog. I really bristle at that, it would be tough to convince me you don't want to just laugh at me.

I went to Ren Faire for the first time recently, and had a hard time picking an outift to wear because I didn't want to stand out as no-fun, or as being enthusiastic but failing in execution. once I was there of course it was easy to see what an appropriate outfit is.

anyone had similar experiences/thoughts? I realized that I'm averse to being intentionally silly.

it feels like I've had to work hard in my life to not be unintentionally silly or weird (masking), so situations that ask "hey, be weird" leave me very guarded at first.

 

And it's never expanded on. 1 block over there are just parking lots, strip malls, single family homes. So silly. It'll be packed on nice weekends but it's iLlEgAl To bUiLd anything else like it in town. Maybe the (likely powerful) chamber of commerce sees expansion as a threat to their wallets.

 

watching this movie from 1995 right now, it's pretty good. Iconic, even. CW: everything.
