I drove black cars for a bit, I’ve definitely just taken the airport exit once when I was out of it. Glad I’m not alone.
- Comment on I want a name for this 10 hours ago:
Podcasts and technology connections on YouTube. I totally enjoy them, but if I’m halfway tired and my mind doesn’t want to focus and I put either on, I’m passing out after 10 minutes.
- Comment on Poll reveals the amount of Brits who would take weight-loss jabs for free on NHS 1 day ago:
As someone who has kids, the only time I can get my workout in is after they’re asleep (or before they wake up, but I’m NOT a morning person). I set up a gym in my garage because at that point, driving to a gym and back adds too much time so close to bedtime and also I’d feel weird about leaving my wife and kids alone at night.
After Covid, I got really out of shape, and one day, I just couldn’t take it anymore and took some steps to getting back into a routine. I have a bench press I got off nextdoor for cheap, adjustable dumbbells (not so cheap but also got off nextdoor practically new for much cheaper than retail) and a treadmill I got for free. I got some gym flooring mats from Ross for ~$60. All in all maybe a $500-$600 investment. It’s been well worth it though. I feel much better and for the first time in a long time, I can stand to look at myself in the mirror. Finding the time especially as a parent is never easy, but you’ve gotta find something that works for you. We need to move our bodies. We weren’t meant to sit around all day, and frankly, I don’t think injecting yourself with these drugs is the answer to weight gain.

- Comment on Red Dead Redemption and Undead Nightmare coming to PC October 29 1 month ago:
I’m currently running through it on a switch. If they can port it to the fucking switch of all things, I don’t see why not PC. Wild that they are finally doing it like a decade n a half later
- Comment on Explain why the US bail system is not insane 1 month ago:
It’s supposed to be scaled as a percentage of income / net worth. Whether that’s true in practice however is debatable

- Comment on I don't know what part of this headline depresses me the most: "52-year-old worked 90-hour weeks in an oil refinery to save money for his business—now he's worth $9.5 billion" 1 month ago:
Finally tried it last week on my trip to Vegas. I was underwhelmed to say the least. Chick fil A nuggets/ tenders are better.
- Comment on ‘Joker: Folie à Deux’ Makes $7M In Thursday Night Previews, Receives 36% Rotten Tomatoes Audience Score – Box Office 1 month ago:
I noped out of wanting to see it in theaters when they announced it. I thought Joker was really good, and was excited about a sequel. A musical was certainly a choice. I am waiting for streaming if I ever do watch it.

The Colosseum is in Rome.
The Coliseum is in Oakland, LA and any other place calling themselves a coliseum.
- Comment on How come LED Light Bulbs only last for about 2-3 Years? 1 month ago:
I replaced my mom’s can lights with LEDs and I was an early adopter. I believe it was ~2012-15 ish. Not a single one has died. The only reason any of them fail now is poor quality and / or planned obsolescence. The tech itself is solid AF. I had some bulbs I got from IKEA for $1. Those have failed countless times.

I miss my old HTC thunderbolt. Removable storage, IR blaster, removable battery. Phones while they have gotten faster, and the software /cameras improved, the actual phones design has gotten so much worse over the years.

I read that as “take that from a kid who doesn’t know either system,” and I was about to say are you living under a rock or something?

- Comment on Any Croatians here? 2 months ago:
The drivers seemed fine when I was there, but I’m from the US where no one follows any of the rules of the road. Fuck all that shit tho. Not important. This is.
Ask a local for a good place to get this dish. You have to call it in like 4 hours in advance but it is fucking worth the wait. When we went to Plitvice Lakes National Park, the guy that drove us out there and was a guide of sorts recommended it and asked if he wanted to stop and get it on the way back. We did, and he called it in on the way to the waterfalls. We stopped at this Podunk middle of nowhere restaurant and I was sussed af, but damn if it wasn’t one of the best meals I ever had.
