Tbh the vibration motor in modern smart phones has been an absolute game changer, the sound doesn’t really matter as long as it’s a softer sound that still is an alarm. But even semi decent vibration motors in phones are leaps and bounds better than the best of early android phones, it’s like someone is tapping me through the mattress, I wake right up.

Nobody is doing anything fast enough. Regimes fall but this is my biggest fear of a trump presidency because this damage may not be permanent but it will do the most damage in my lifetime.

This title is something that doesn’t make sense said in a way that makes it look logical. If they can’t manage their fees those fees shouldn’t exist. But that’s not really why this requirement it’s going away, it’s because they were bribed.

A goal at the end of tasks that I actually want and isn’t just made up? No that’ll make me get this done faster than what should logically be possible

Man she really didn’t realize he was like this huh? She was just here for racism not the fascism, what a fool

My concern is that some of these “additives” could just be harmless preservatives, dyes, or even lab synthesized ingredients that are usually naturally occuring through some non industrial method, but they add them a different way because it’s cheaper at scale.

Not saying it’s the same but it gives me similar pause and concern as the the “natural dyes” initiative by RFK. The natural dyes are literally just the same chemicals just gotten from “natural” means rather than synthesized in a lab.

Another example is the fear mongering against high fructose corn syrup in the 00’s when it’s literally broken down into the same thing as sugar in your body before it’s used. The only difference between it and sugar, even down to flavor, is that it was created in a lab from corn because it was cheaper because of government subsidies.

Unless it’s directly harmful to you like alcohol, the term “healthy” when relating to food is very poorly defined, and is for the most part exploited by companies to make you feel bad about what you’re currently eating, and to sell you their food at a markup because it’s “healthy”

What’s healthy for is having a good idea of the levels of essential nutrients you intake, your caloric intake, and making sure you eat everything in moderation.

I’m always for the integrity of journalism because the lack thereof is part of the reason we’re where we are today. A more accurate but eaqually as cautionary of a headline would be “Whooping cough cases on the rise in Florida as vaccine skepticism is legally supported by the states lawmakers” or something like that

Ugh god don’t get me started on that, it’s literally ingrained in the work cutlure that getting the work done is more important than following the labor laws. I have gotten in trouble for not attending “”“optional”" meetings out of work hours.

I’m paying double what I was last year

I’ve seen at least two TikToks and now this tweet make this exact same joke. Good ol’ Internet reheated nachos

Yeah I actually have friends who work for my city, I told them to let me know if positions open up, but the other issue is that city jobs are so good that no one leaves lol. I’m looking to switch to sys admin work because I have a background in that, I’m hoping to get my base level cert in that this year.

The term ultra processed us pretty controversial unless they explicitly define it in this legislation. A PB & J is considered ultra processed even if you make the peanut butter, the jam, and the bread yourself because those ingredients have been processed heavily from their natural state.

Edit:

It defines such foods as those that pose the greatest risks to consumers based on scientific evidence of adverse health outcomes, and it directs the state Public Health Department to determine which particular products meet the definition by June 2028.

Ah ok that makes sense.

Oh I made it, I make more than a lot of my peers in highschool, not all of them, but I make a good wage. But I fucking hate the dev industry man. I was unemployed for 3 months and I got so much done. Agile methodology sucks the soul out of me, I don’t have anything left for my personal projects. It’s micromanagement incarnate. Oh you had two bad dev cycles in a row? Guess it’s time for a PIP. Oh you had to step away for an errand a few times this dev cycle? Let’s not make it a habit, even though all your work is done. Oh you have mutiple 2 hour meetings to attend and we still label you as having full capacity meaning you have to figure out how to do 8 days of dev work in almost half that time. I’m so fucking tired of it.

No

I mean occums Occam’s Razor, are we sure the mod(s) didn’t delete their accounts leaving the community unmoderated or something?

Literal blood money bruh

Hydrophobes be like “I’m dying of rabies!”

Yeah it took me a few hours of research and plugin setup to get feature parity with Plex, and then even so I don’t have anything to replace plexamp yet

Genuinely Plex has become so obtrusive about NEW FEATURES, NOW WE HAVE THIS, USE THIS THUS WAY!!! and then also my libraries have somehow become even slower to load. I’ve been using jellyfin way more often
