I think it can depend on where you live and dry heat vs humid and stuff, but in general I agree.
I would sleep with a fan instead of turning on AC.
- Comment on Everyday, as an American 2 weeks ago:
I love the 24 hour clock and living in London, UK I used it all the time. However, I remember one time I bought movie tickets at lunch for 17:30 and my brain thought it was for 7:30pm and I called my friend at the last moment saying: “you have to leave work early if we’re gonna make it!”

I feel like an idiot. I read “bear” and tilted my phone and squinted and all that. Time to go sleep.

He’s got terrible takes. I don’t like seeing his face or hearing his voice. Why is he in television? Only good thing about Inside the NBA going down is that we won’t see Draymond on it.

lol, okay that made me chuckle … I liked that.
Although, we both eventually got into the jobs for what we studied for. We’ve made that jokes both in university and when we got into respective fields.

My geophysicist friend laughed at me for a little long when I said “I’m a computer scientist”.
I never took that degree/job position or whatever seriously anyway. I’ve always giggled at software engineering too. I just call myself a programmer.

First time watching Lemmino and I’m an instant subscriber now, it was a great video. Not gonna lie the bait at the end was really enticing and I hope that this does get solved soon!

I think she had hair loss and a breakdown and stuff. I have to say that it just made me hate Kubrick.

Doesn’t it? It just takes a lot more shots, I think.

I remember listening to an NPR podcast and it was talking about wasting money in science. There was that “shrimp fight club” and millions being spent on it. Turns out the money was for a science lab and for students wages and just a bit of money went on the shrimp experiment. Didn’t stop the headlines though. When the scientist went to explain the point to the politicians. They said that the shrimp shells were so resilient and lightweight and studying it could yield military benefits. The politician said that they would only care about that specific use case. The scientist had to explain you don’t get one without the other.

- Comment on All are different movies. 2 months ago:
My ex had a massive crush on the Rock. So we’d go see every movie. I was happy that she was so excited and it was a great time. Like you said, I’m not watching a Nolan or Scorsese movie and my expectations were pretty much met. I honestly couldn’t tell you the plotline to Rampage or the Skyscraper neither.

Btw, we all love Valve and the Steam Deck but Valve ain’t clean either.

I’ve spent a small fortune on split keyboards now, it never came to mind for some reason. Definitely helped too.
- Comment on He's got a point 2 months ago:
I’m all seriousness everyone, take many breaks and there’s lots of wrist and hand stretches online.
Also, vertical mouse have helped my carpal tunnel. If you don’t know what that is, use the Magic Mouse for a little while and it’ll kick in.
- Comment on Marvel Rivals | Official Announcement Trailer 2 months ago:
All I could think about was it’d be nice if this were a single player game with tighter/fleshed out mechanics. Be cool to do some PvE with a good story.
I mean, there’s always Spiderman and Wolverine will be coming out soon.
- Comment on Horizon Forbidden West is now available on PC 2 months ago:
On a HZD post, I remember saying years ago I can’t wait because I’d love to play it on keyboard and mouse!
Got downvoted like hell and someone replied, “you can’t play it with a mouse and keyboard”.
I was completely baffled as to what’s going on.

Two main things I remember about that finale. Cliff ending the conversation on shoes because their topic was about shoewear. Lastly, Sam saying to the incoming patron: “we’re closed”.
I loved Cheers.

I’m an older millenial that identifies closer to Gen X. I think mine would be … Will Smith crying to Uncle Phil about his dad on Fresh Prince? That was pretty iconic. Wasn’t a good bye or finale one though.
Seinfeld finale was kinda bleh. I skipped Roseanne, Friends and Frazier’s finales to be honest and the fact no one references them. Simpsons won’t die. I’d say Futurama but like, it keeps coming back with declining quality.
- Comment on Legendary exit for a legendary creator 5 months ago:
My mate told me that he seems very smug and not very English. I found that quite funny. I don’t particularly dislike Tom but I don’t go out of my way to watch him like others. I still remember his OnlyConnect appearances from way back. He’s not everyone’s cup of tea and that’s fine.
