I’m surprised how many people use subscribed+scaled. I’ve been doing that as soon as the scaled feature was added.

It’s definitely a volume thing. With niche interest, you’ll bump into this limitation quite frequently.

I’ve heard of mayo pizza before. I recall the was a restaurant that did that. Never tried it myself though.

Remember when people were talking about smart watches listening to you all the time? Nobody worries about that anymore. Instead, pretty much everyone wears a smart watch of some sort. My guess is, the same will happen with smart glasses eventually.

It’s all bad. Really bad. Oh, and most people don’t even have AC, so it’s off the scale kind of bad for them. This is the kind of weather when elderly people die and everyone else just suffers.

On top of that, there are systemic problems that allow the situation to escalate out of control. Why should I do this expensive thing while everyone else gets the cheap option? This sort of thinking applies to governments, companies and individuals alike. Nobody wants to contribute to fixing the problem, because it’s expensive.

Because Lemmy.

This is the corner of the internet where you’ll find people who hate AI with a burning passion. Apparently, some of them were scrolling local or all, and stumbled upon your post. Some people just downvote without even checking which community the post is in.

Who needs a space elevator when you might as well use the same tech to beat bridge records.

Just build the bridge on the moon instead. The lower gravity really helps with the main span.

Yeah, sorry. I’m awkward like that. Couldn’t come up with a way to cheer you up. Socialising is hard.

Being alone and feeling lonely aren’t the same. You could be mostly isolated from the world around you and feel fine. You could be surrounded by people but feel lonely.

You still have at least one person who cares, and that’s great. Some people have more, others have fewer. The number doesn’t really correlate with how you feel, because people don’t need the same amount of social interaction. Apparently, you would prefer more, hence the loneliness. How about a social hobby of some sort?

Anyway, this may also explain why other people didn’t bother saying goodbye. Maybe they don’t feel lonely at all.

Alternatively, you could always use the unstoppable plug and immovable socket, AKA the paradoxical connector.

What about the people who already have many computers for other purposes, and they just don’t feel like using the gaming machine for any of the purposes. What if they already get to tinker and tweak the other computers to such an extent that there’s no need for them to do any of that with the gaming system.

It’s Fedora for gamers.

Nah, you’re just imagining things.

Just buy another car with 99k already on the odometer. Next time, you could plan every trip so that the numbers are perfect during service day. Don’t forget to take a photo.

Sounds good to me. In this case, 4 flexible hours of work in the summer means about 6 fixed length hours. In the winter those 4 flexible hours translate to about 2 fixed length hours, so I think I’ll have plenty of time for my hobbies.

An 8 h work day during the winter flies by, but the lunch hour is only long enough for one bite sandwich. On the other hand, 12 h of night is plenty enough for all my hobbies.

In the summer, work devours your entire life and there’s hardly any time to sleep.

Now with wifi, HDMI, cloud storage, blockchain and AI.

When experimenting, you shouldn’t use your finest beans. When I’m getting to know a new method, I usually start with the cheapest light roast I can find in a supermarket. It’s nowhere near a specialty coffee, but it’s still a lot nicer than any medium roast I’ve ever found. As it costs about 18 €/kg, making mistakes doesn’t get too expensive. This method is ok if you’re testing a new method and you’re brewing coffee for a large crowd at the same time. Alternatively, you could brew for yourself, but you would need to drink more than a few cups.

Another option would be to use decaf, which comes with different compromises. It’s about twice the price, but you can drink a lot of it. When I was getting to know my cheap espresso machine, I went with decaf. I ended up making six double shots in a day, and that amount of regular espresso would have been way too much for me. With decaf though, I was fine. If I had used regular coffee, I would have needed to spread these experiments over several days, but with decaf I was able to do all of it during a single day.
