  I’ve definitely had periods of depression food, but the one time I had to spend first half of day on white throne and be scared to fart for second half of day was after going to a fancy restaurant. 🌝

  Oh, come on.

  You can still DIY shit like Meshtastic

  So, you may have noticed that 5 GHz Wi-Fi has smaller coverage area than 2.4 GHz.

  It works that way all the way down to infrasound, which is <20 Hz, and natural examples would be whale communications (thousands of kilometers) or volcano eruptions (infrasound wave from Krakatoa eruption lapped around entire globe multiple times).

  As for human factors - basically any big industrial tech object is gonna be the source of ultrasound. So it’s kind of safe to assume that infrasound from data centers may be “heard” from at least several kilometers away. Dunno how it compares to refineries and power substations - but they’re also source of that.

  Infrasound. Proven negative impact on people’s health and general wellbeing, waves travel quite far and have high penetration, and data centers are absolutely the source of it with all the fans and pumps.

  If one mashes bugs in blender rather than milk them - it ain’t big milk, it’s bug juice.

  Eh, my local brewery celebrated 310 years last year and is still doing fine. So there are some issues other than age. 🗿

  I blame Jesus. If not for him - we’d probably still be believing in sacred forests and shit.

  Sometimes I happen upon articles that make me think that I’m doing wrong kinds of research myself. 🌚

  I’ve worked at different places that used Teams, and that thing with having to re- login regularly is certainly fault of whoever administers Teams within your organization.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Horror story⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  I can sometimes hear Teams notification sound from neighbour’s apartment, triggers me to check my phone almost every time.

  Now think of some folks actually being quite successful by selling courses and trainings where they just talk nonsense in bureaucratese to the audience. 💀

  Another European europeansplaining here.

  There was that thing with memes that if corporate social media people posted some meme - that would be akin to that specific meme’s death certificate. Like, people had fun with something, and now there’s corporations trying to buddy up, and it’s bo fun.

  So… kinda the same thing with celebrity endorsements. Immediately makes things feel 10x less genuine.

  I feel like AI employed to audit the company and look for ways to increase efficiency can certainly get funny ideas about guys who get seven figure paychecks for showing PowerPoints once in a while. 🌝

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Anyone get this?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Had a situation twice where one particular friend would antagonize other one (different people in both cases), and after some time rest of us would have that “oh!” moment, with that second friend no longer being a friend now.

  As for myself - became good friends for almost 10 years now with a person who’s first impression to me was not good to say the least.
