Porn. Always good for the money.

trying to build a community

I honestly think that’s the big part there. You can build a great app but it doesn’t matter if no one is using it and you don’t get feed back or it’s not shared around.

So, here we are trying to use the newest virtual 3rd space to create a community so that there is people will feel engaged in the product and share it around to add more.

But that’s also an issue with discord. It wants to be a social space more than a useful space and it usually gets entirely dominated by a few users with others less inclined to add in. It’s also accessible but not easy necessarily to stumble into if you are outside of the community trying to look into it more.

It just does the wrong job, slower and less efficient than old school forums or wikis, but it’s the tools we have to use in this less efficient connected Internet of the now.

Rich people with free time.

Yeah by Inspire brands, the same people that run Sonic and Arby’s. I mean I guess it’s better than Yum! In quality…

But this is also Roark capital who named themselves after an Ayn Rand character and have several violations and creepy history as a private equity firm and are currently trying to buy all sandwich companies to own a monopoly on it.

Yup. But as a tip you can store cookware in the oven, that lets you get like 1.5 of the options and if you are willing to give up some space thrift stores sometimes have cheap shelving you can use as a makeshift pantry against one of the walls.

I actually use a table I removed 2 legs from and have it using the windowsill instead just so I could have some useable counter space.

My puzzle skills are always getting a workout trying to figure out cooking.

Yeah. When you entire shift could just barely afford a days worth of calories and nothing more I think you would basically check out.

I literally had cake for breakfast most days cause you could get discount nearly expired ones from the hidden end cap in Walmarts and that was cheap and gave me some energy for the day and then nothing but hotdogs and hashbrowns.

Yeah, cheap doesn’t mean healthy. We should at least start with making sure people can get all the calories they need each day this country certainly produces enough of them and throws away so much.

I’m tired of malnutrition and starvation being looked at like a good diet for the poor.

Actually I still can get avocados for a dollar a piece and you only use half for some toast plus a single slice of bread and an egg and a some hot sauce…

I think avocado toast literally is the cheaper option.

But it’s really just older people seeing constant access to specialty foods that were rarer and thinking if we are burning the planet down to have produce whenever we want it then it must be better than it was back when you couldn’t.

I honestly think it will have to be semi curated and look a lot like a more complex digital version of an encyclopedia.

I mean I think the stupid LLM craze is from trying to make something like that in the vain of the “Hitchhikers Guide” but without having to do the actual work and using autogenerated articles except that makes them prone to being false. The Hitchhikers Guide still had writers and people entering and double checking information.

It can then further link you to related stuff from the web but the wide spread of information is somewhat dead since it’s now the product to be sold and free and easy sharing of it would ruin profit margins.

Man I really wonder what the venn diagram of Linux users/furries are. But I’m thinking it might be a circle within a circle kinda thing.

Oh absolutely. Humans love stimulants.

It’s funny to the degree that our society runs on being amped up by one drug or another.

Also wild when it doesn’t work on you and you feel left out of some drugged up rave that everyone else seems to be participating in but I really don’t want it.

It’s funny to think that previous generations were medicating themselves too without admitting it. 1930s-70s amphetamines are all the rage until it’s declared an epidemic from the incredible amount of usage.

Then hard pivot to cocaine use to replace the amphetamines, which ends up not being better (and maybe destroying some countries in the process)

And now here we are back to amphetamine usage and far surpassing the levels of the epidemic of the late 60s-70s.

So remember if your grandparents say they never had to medicate themselves back in the day just ask them how much powder they sniffed up their noses. Apparently everyone feels good with a bit of stimulation.

somehow had untreated ADHD

As if the whole diagnosed ADHD movement hasn’t only just existed for the last 20-30 years. And really picked up steam with the increase in casual use of Adderall in the early 2000s

Oh shit, English and French required, arbitrary expiration date because it’s not required.

You should be a detective I bet you nailed it in one.

Did you know you can store smoked salmon at room temp pretty much indefinitely in an unopened package?

Food storage has gotten really good, all the tricks of smoke, sugar or salt of our ancestors with now radiation sterilization and other cool tricks with science.
All that to say. It’s probably fine. You just bought it and I’m sure this was made to last as long as it can as reliably as it can so that they don’t lose money.

Most best buy dates are just made up anyways and not based on much. Check for gas build up, a weird odor, extreme discoloration, or foreign objects or growths. That will get you through pretty much every rotten food type without having to taste it.

That’s said, where are you shopping that has a mixture of Japanese, Chinese, French, and robot codes?

You know what this sounds like? Anyone ever heard of the Tulsa massacre?

Waiting outside the prison just foaming at the mouth at the chance to kill those they think of as lesser. Those that can be easily blamed for any and all issues.

I am so fucking done with humanity.

70s recession based on skyrocketing oil prices because of fighting in the middle east is what made the 80s the way it was. Everyone got uncomfortable and upset that it wasn’t all perfect and started fighting to screw over everyone else to make their life better and it worked. The lead fumes also at that point likely didn’t help but yeah the 80s was just the time of action from people disliking the 70s that sent us on this slow painful crawl towards a failing economic system with a couple stops on the way to make it worse to keep the machine chugging along.

I really don’t get these humble brags. Or are they actually just that disconnected from reality? Or maybe trying to mock people?

Well that was an interesting read.

I mean yeah. You have all those people you don’t need or care about and they are rightfully angry. But you don’t want them in your country… They might rebel and do something about their situation. So best to weaponize it and send out that anger to be someone else’s problem.
