- Comment on Why do so many hand dryers not dry hands? Am I doing something wrong? 1 week ago:Rule 0 of : do NOT talk about . 
- Comment on Why do so many hand dryers not dry hands? Am I doing something wrong? 1 week ago:I have taken to doing the hand-washing gestures I learned during the pandemic. Helps dry my hands quite well. Funnily enough, I think I lost the habit of washing my hands that way, now going for a quicker method. Don’t even know when that happened 
- Comment on FUCK 2 weeks ago:For updating your waste status? Well, if you’re Scout Condor, maybe… The average person, though? I don’t think so. You can, however, get tons of coupons from cool restaurants, through targeted ads 
- Comment on FUCK 2 weeks ago:What is wrong with re-watching one’s dream? I mean, sure. I’ve written some dreams down, and looking back some of it’s kinda cringe (also crappy, cause dreams are random and I can’t remember well) Also, if dreams are “random data streams based on what is being stored into long-term memory as you sleep”, why random-ass dreams? Not always I wake up feeling like “damn, what a topical dream!” It’s, like, “Oh, Robotnik took Sonic’s wife and I gotta help him”, like. What in that is being stored in my mind? being able to view other people’s dreams I did mention it’s a private thing. Not like Smart Pipes sharing your last poo to your online followers Am baffled by the inclusion of ai in this comment, though. Feels… out-of-place? Why is AI out of place? I mean, if it (or machine learning, at least) can “see” or “learn”, or “spot” patterns, and then replicate them, it could be used to try and see a pattern between one’s brain activity, and what imagery could be associated with it. If it can find these associations, it could then work backwards from the brain activity to the image. Like, it receives brain activity when I see or think of an apple, and it knows the context of the apple. Then, without the context, and with enough training, it could figure out when you’re thinking apple. In theory, at least. Not sure how brain activity works, and if there’s anything differing in different contexts that could be picked up like that (i.e. that you could somehow differentiate between thinking apple or any other thing going on in your brain) 
- Comment on FUCK 2 weeks ago:One cool use I’d like to see for AI one day would be recording dreams. A machine that reads your brainwaves, sends data to AI. The AI could be trained by showing someone an image, and then feeding the AI the description of the image, and brainwave readings, such that it can find patterns. Later, well-trained, it could translate brainwaves into concepts. Feed that into an LLM to connect these concepts, generate a title, sinopsis, and some prompts. Use prompts to make a video out of it, a trailer, and a poster. Add to a personal library. By having a local AI of your own, with your data, controlled by you, AI could have references of you, like name, general information, how you look, etc. Wake up in the morning, make yourself a cup of milk, sit in front of your computer, open your dream library. Browse around your own Dream Stream (though local, so no streaming. Unless server). A title/poster catch your eye? Read sinopsys, watch trailer. Interested? Give it a watch! Bro, I just had the craziest dream. Come watch!!! Lying in bed? Shit, I bet there’s gonna be a sleep paralysis demon jumpscare any moment now Wait, you just gonna leave us on a cliffhanger like that? 
- Comment on FUCK 2 weeks ago:Oh, I hate stuff like that. When I’m thinking, and I get distracted for a moment with… honestly, what even. And I get stuck on my thought like a scratched vinyl, just looping on the last part. Not moving past that, and suddenly struggling to remember where I was going with it, and where I came from with it. “…and then… uhm… uuuhhhhh… uh, where was I going with this?” 
- Comment on FUCK 2 weeks ago:I, too, took to writing dreams. Had one where Robotnik takes Sonic’s wife and I have to help him or something. Hopefully no one finds these notes lol. Some things are better left in the past 
- Comment on They have a right to feel smug 3 weeks ago:Putting it back in place is kinda difficult, iirc. It’s a scary “oh, shit. Put it back, put it back” moment. It’s a lesson in not playing around wuth the door (ah, yeah, mine was a big balcony door window (small balcony, big door)) 
- Comment on They have a right to feel smug 3 weeks ago:CHAT, IS THIS REAL??? 
- Comment on What do you think the PPE is for 3 weeks ago:Yeah, I did notice Hydrogen where Helium ought to be. Other than that, though, the rest seems okay far as I know of the periodic table (meaning anything till about Uranium, in order) 
- Comment on What do you think the PPE is for 3 weeks ago:I can’t tell the numbers, but La and Ac being in the main table threw me off, had me suspecting everything was wrong

- Comment on Why are podcasters/vloggers suddenly holding tiny mics? 4 weeks ago:I was similarly intending to do so, but was also beaten 
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 4 weeks ago:Well, maybe not eternity, but that sure is a whołe lot of time for someone who’ll be around for probably less than 100 years (not sure why 100 is the number I think of when I think of an age limit to life. Is this a common occurrance, folks? Or just me? I mean, I do know some people go past it, but still…) 
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 4 weeks ago:That’s precisely the scary part. A nothingness, for all of eternity. It ends, never to continue. I do not know what it is like. Just… not seeing. Not hearing. None of the senses, and no thoughts either. No consciousness. I wouldn’t be scared after dead, cuz I’dn’t have the consciousness for that. However, being alive, I can. I can fear the eternal nothingness of inexistence I think this may or may not have some connection to a post from that monkey in the brain guy who also has a TED Talk (Tim Something?). I recall seeing a post of his about life or something. Talked about how short our lives are in the grand scheme of things. Had even an image with days or weeks or months of life, like a progress bar On the other hand, reading that people actually close to death don’t worry as much as people imagining being close to death, iirc, may have had a positive impact in my fear. Though I recalln’t well 
- Comment on Can you fuck off 4 weeks ago:
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 4 weeks ago:Idk, sounds kinda scary. Idk what it was like before, because I lacked consciousness to experience it. And the idea that it all ends, back to nothingness forever. We live a few years. Pretty much nothing, if we consider the forever before, and the forever after our existence. It’s something I recall fearing as a kid, due to the scary unknown. Glad to have enjoyed a decade of bliss. Too bad the fear has come back to haunt me. It’s not constant, though. Sometimes it comes, outta nowhere. Real strong. Not fun. But I don’t live day to day in fear. 
- Comment on Fear not, and enjoy this mere interlude to its fullest! 4 weeks ago:Just like The Butterfly Effect ending we watched in class! 
- Comment on Oa oa a 4 weeks ago:Claridryl may not be right for everyone. Consult your doctor if symptoms persist. Some patients experience side effects, including dry mouth, dizziness, double vision, reflexive memory, aggression, and fatigue. Do not use if you suffer from high blood pressue or neurological dysfunction. Call your doctor if you experience an inability to concentrate, stiff muscles, sores, or trouble walking. Do not take Claridryl before bed or immediately upon waking up. Insomnia has been reported with Claridryl and drugs like it. In some cases, the insomnia can become permanent and lead to stroke or death. Other risks include headaches, seizures, trouble swallowing, impared motor skills, extreme paranoia, loss of time, muscle twitches and spasms…

- Comment on Anon doesn't understand streamer fans 5 weeks ago:Obviously women have long hair, and that can get in the way, making it harder to see. You don’t want hair in your face when you got to fit that piece through the side precisely, making a last second rotation to fit lest you end up with a hole on your stack
