Holy shit! #6 unlocked some deep memories that have been hidden away deep in my subconscious for at least 20 years.
- Comment on Is it gay to have pleasurable sex with your wife? 1 week ago:
They perceive any act in service to anybody but themselves as weakness. People say they’re like this because they’re afraid of being seen as feminine and that may be true for some but I think many others just want to live in a world where they have no accountability and can take whatever they want while being praised by the people around them for the scraps they leave behind.

At this point I feel like it’s totally plausible that the real reason he’s fighting so hard to keep the Epstein files locked away is not because they implicate him in the sex trafficking of underaged children but rather they reveal that he engaged in gay sex with his now political rivals.

As a human being, human beings are the worst. If it wasn’t for our tendency to completely dominate our environments, I don’t know why the world would put up with us.

I’ve been happy with Tidal. Their library is extensive, you get better sound quality and it’s cheaper than Spotify. No podcasts or audiobooks but I use different services for those anyway.

Microsoft are a bunch of pussies also release the Epstein files!
- Comment on Anon is forever alone 5 weeks ago:
My advice is to get off the internet and get involved with your community. Go to social events, not with the intent of finding somebody to date but with the intent of making friends and connections. Show up as yourself, don’t try to be somebody you aren’t in an attempt to impress, that’ll only mislead people.
Our society treats dating like job interviews, you get an hour tops to make a good impression on a total stranger. It works for some people who are naturally attractive whether it’s their looks or charisma and because that works for those people other people try to emulate that and get frustrated that it doesn’t work for them. Even if it does, that attraction is often superficial because it’s based on a false version of themselves.
In my experience it’s much easier for attraction to grow naturally between people who interact regularly and is more likely to last when those people are showing up as themselves from the beginning.

That’s a neat trick but also 4% of 75 = (1% of 75) * 4 = 0.75 * 4 = 1.5 * 2 = 3
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 1 month ago:
I’m resisting the urge to jump to conclusions, however I can’t help but observe that objectively there seems to be a common denominator in your situation. Either way, it sucks that that’s been your experience and I hope things change for the better for you.
- Comment on Does anyone else notice an up tick in hostility on Lemmy lately? 1 month ago:
It doesn’t feel unique to Lemmy to me. I’m seeing higher levels of hostility in just about any environment broad enough to include left and right wingers

- Comment on Has this ever happened to you? 1 month ago:
It wouldn’t bother me if somebody wanted to bring a friend on a date. However, I would communicate that it would change the dynamic into a “hangout” over a traditional “date” for me. The difference being that a date carries romantic intent and a hangout is for the sake of connecting with others without romantic expectations. Also, a hangout means everybody pays for themselves.
This takes the pressure off by lowering the stakes since it’s now just a casual hangout between peers. It also has the benefit of making the third not feel excluded as a third wheel but a welcome part of the group.
- Comment on Dinner is ready! 2 months ago:
D without a doubt. Indian, Thai, Vietnamese, Japanese, parts of China. It’s even got some Mediterranean in there. That’s basically all I eat already.
- Comment on choice 2 months ago:
Clarification for green. Does it require physical contact or is it like a Death Note situation? If it’s the former, don’t we already have that ability? What about non-bio-based materials? If you eat a rock and poop out a rock, does it also now qualify as poo?
- Comment on A conundrum 2 months ago:
I’d wager a lot more than some need a Callum to explain what they should think about anything, given the state of things.

Have you tried turning it off and on again?
- Comment on Good news. :) 2 months ago:
Technically, only a small section of California is part of the Cascadian region. But so is most of Idaho… And I think just about everybody would be happier if we made that trade.
- Comment on WATER! 2 months ago:
I find you get much better results if you talk to the LLM like you were instructing a robot, not a human. That means being very specific about everything.
It’s the difference between, “I would like water” and, “I would like a glass filled with drinking water and a few cubes of ice mixed in”.

- Comment on We all had one 2 months ago:
Sometimes, as I approach middle-age, a desire to have kids creeps into my fantasies. And then something like this comes along and snuffs that desire out.
On a separate note, that batman suit is dope.
- Comment on From Snoop Dogg to Lap Dogg 2 months ago:
I feel like I’ve got whiplash over the general public’s perception of Snoop over the last decade or so
- Comment on California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car 3 months ago:
That car lane is such an offensive waste of hundreds of millions of dollars of infrastructure.
Replace it AND the bike lane with a train that can carry 10x as many passengers at a time as both the car and bike lanes combined! Bonus, it can even fit bikes on it! No such luck for the cars though… too bad.
- Comment on California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car 3 months ago:
Careless/reckless driving entirely normalized in America. Think of the number of people you see speeding, rolling stop signs, blowing through pedestrian crosswalks, speeding up to make the yellow light and “accidentally” running the red. Think of all the people who chat on the phone, attend work meetings, watch videos, do their makeup, and eat entire meals while behind the wheel of a moving car. Think of all the people you’ve heard essentially bragging about how much they speed, who bemoan all the “slow” people on the road who are just going the posted speed limit, or who feel they’re being unfairly targeted when they get a speeding ticket for going ten-over.
Chances are if you’ve driven a car in America then you yourself are guilty of having done some of those things. I know I certainly am, though I’ve been intentional about taming my own hubris behind the wheel over recent years. But it’s hard to accept that what is normal to you is also wrong or dangerous. Especially in a survivor biased environment like reckless driving culture, where nothing bad generally happens to you until it does and then as people get more reckless the higher the chances are you won’t walk away from an accident. And so when you see a post online, shaming people for something you do on your way to work every day, you get defensive because to you that’s just normal behavior.

As a software engineer, definitely. Things that might have taken days writing a boilerplate framework and reading through docs to find out how to figure certain things could take hours now. Now I don’t have to spend hours learning how to use the data visualisation library in order to fix the one donut chart on my company’s site, I can ask AI to do it in minutes and make edits where needed.
It’s certainly not perfect or infallible, it spits out garbage a lot still. But since I have a deep understanding of the stuff I’m working on, I can recognize when it’s spitting out garbage and recalibrate.
