Well yeah, but mostly due to lacking any chance and I’m a shut-in (who probably has SzPD). Also time has already made a fool of me.

If potential is key, I say keep the context of the MAID process but instead of outright death make it cryonics. Plus other potential relevant volunteer stuff and organ donation stuff lined up. Even if the initial cryonics technique is not even close to viable, other stuff could be transformative. If cryonics has any chance to work, things will get appreciably better in 300-or-so years right?
Hopeful worst is my brain in a jar mostly playing VR and sometimes knitting yarn via robotic arms. Lots of ways it could be better. Also unlike traditional cyborg stuff with all-machine life-support, I would like to still have a complex microbiome if not taking it further with symbiosis.
Reminder on Stockholm syndrome:
According to accounts by Kristin Enmark (one of the hostages): the police were acting incompetently, with little care for the hostages’ safety.
She had criticized the police for pointing guns at the convicts while the hostages were in the line of fire, and she had told news outlets that one of the captors tried to protect the hostages from being caught in the crossfire
but the prime minister [Palme] told her that she would have to content herself with dying at her post rather than Palme giving in to the captors’ demands.
Ultimately, Enmark explained she was more afraid of the police, whose attitude seemed to be a much larger, direct threat to her life than the robbers.
Which could possibly be relevant here, particularly the civil war part.
“We want change!”
(votes for the asshat that fucked everything up previously).
Probably because it is, and then add in federation issues (at least that’s been my experience with Kbin). That and if I post about something niche people may have no reason to actually respond.
There are 186 days until the election. There is no possibility that a better candidate enters now and defeats both Biden and Trump, if the 3rd candidate could even win a single state. And a headline of another thread: Exclusive: Bernie Sanders worries young people are underestimating the threat from Trump
I think Bernie knows this and would not even run that campaign. There are too many layers of absurdity to this.
Bernie is great… but that’s not how FPtP voting works, and I don’t think Bernie would even consider running unless Biden dropped out and endorsed him.
Bernie didn’t even run in the primary, probably because it doesn’t make sense to run against an incumbent.
I just checked, apparently we have a ~16 gallon can (15 7/8ths*) and use 33gal bags. It doesn’t seem that much bigger (bc volume) but an overfilled bag will still have room in it when removed (it’s useful for last-minute additions on garbage day).
I don’t know if you need to go this far, but maybe it is why they still fit the can properly with the not-expected-fit orientation like I described to prevent overfilling. 30gal might work, I guess it seems there isn’t much choice here though (otherwise I’d say try 5-10gal/~20% higher rather than double).
*= Rubbermaid 3541, “Slim Jim” not cheap for plastic but we’ve had it for years so I’m not sure if it was that expensive when it was purchased
In my house we have slightly oversized trashbags, have the bag oriented the other way (so when you pull the bag out it does not get stuck*), make sure the drawstring is over the lip, and this depends on the design of your trash-can but just see the picture. Image link for non-Kbin.
*= this is specific to a larger bag in a tapered container. If the orientation matches closely, lifting causes it to expand at the bottom when you lift so you’re only lifting the bag at first (also this allows it to get stuck when it’s overfilled). Rotated the other way it cannot expand fully until it is out of the container.
Yeah, the only language I’ve seen/tried that actually feels right*.
But for me it falls down when it comes to needing other people and/or the specific engine-level stuff that I want to get started. I was hoping to start out simple with Raylib bindings, but even that I can’t get vertex colors on imported models to work and I tinkered w/my own 2D polygon format but it was too much work for me to finalize.
My part of the fediverse doesn’t seem to work well for asking niche questions at least, I don’t see much talk on Nim and it doesn’t help that it’s hard to find when people don’t say nim-lang. Also there are 2 replies to you that aren’t federated to where I can see them (and my art threads–lowpoly+vertex colors, for instance plant–aren’t federated to your instance).
*= That also may be a mix of my issues plus how some people style their code, though.
My point is, going by the language in what you linked, the manufacturer you went with sells neither electronic devices nor devices that facilitate the use of any liquids/oils. So it does seem like their dumb policy/cautiousness not them being forced, though I am not a lawyer. Even being strict, if there was a device they sold that fell under the law I think it’d be the torches, as you said if someone has a lighter and material+paper or anything else that’s all that’s needed for smoking.
I was pointing out another manufacturer (quite popular/known and they only do electronic stuff, but AFAIK nothing for liquid/oils) and they have not bothered with this policy at all. They do allow the customer to request a signature check, but that’s all I see.
I saw that after posting. I’m not sure if the shipping law depends on the product but I got an Extreme Q from Arizer years ago and just checked: there is no mention of a required signature (though being a desktop unit and twice the price, it is a different product).
So maybe you could’ve just bought from somewhere else, assuming this is the seller being overly cautious and not a wide-sweeping law.
I think it would just burn the tobacco rather than vaporizing it
I mean if the temperature is set low enough (also convection) it should prevent combustion(/harmful byproducts) for most materials. Like under 200C especially.
Although I’m not sure vaporizing tobacco intended for smoking would taste all that great and smokers generally don’t seem to care anyway. Sounds gross to me, then again so does nicotine in general.
I could see it in the specific case of a cheap (steam) vape pen purchased without debit/bank card off of a general store site. They check the mail and pocket it, get vape juice from somebody. Charge+fill and it’s ready in a pocket or backpack etc. Similar for concentrates, portable dry vaporizers (or something like dynavap) maybe a bit less.
A $100+ desktop dry vaporizer purchased from a dedicated website seems like it’d be harder to hide unless parents are really inattentive. Miss the credit/debit record, miss the delivery at the door, then them carrying it in (+branded boxes), a dedicated spot in their room where it’s plugged in, and an almost ritual to properly heat up the glass/material that might give it away (glass clinking, balloon bag filling, fan on/off etc).
It was a streaming site that pulled from a large amount of other sources automatically.
Funnily enough it didn’t have any discovery features whatsoever (no front page, popular, latest etc), it was just a search bar that took you right into the video so you needed an idea what it is you wanted to see. And I don’t think it was nearly as popular as other sites (like you probably weren’t finding it from search results, as I don’t think it even had the info that’d be grabbed, and probably didn’t even have SEO or anything like that)
I’m thirsty for tritium water. I’m sure it’s not a health thing, but it probably tastes better (more quenching).
And I want them to pay me a dollar in store credit to drink it. I want them to study me for the effects after years (and many many gallons) of having done this, and then I want to get a medal from some nuclear safety commissioner in Japan or something and look stupid when they show a still of my face on the Japanese news programs.
Is that too much to ask? But fine, I’ll just drink my well water that probably just has gasoline in it or something like a normal PFA-blooded American. No I know what you’re thinking, it’s not the same.
allowing them to later create or sell space for their own advertising
I’ll just stay here and wait for some free popcorn instead, thanks
EDIT: Personal stuff aside, you might have better luck in a programming community, particularly in a programming-centric instance (though IME federation w/Kbin may be an issue), and probably even better with an example of an article.
Then again, it might be an uphill battle when it comes to actually convincing people to use your place over others.
I don’t like most programming languages, and I want probably too much. Problem with me or the timeline or something.
I do like one language and it’s a bit niche.
Even still I don’t really use it. The last code I did (months ago, in September), load format example.
Also recently made a few 3D models with only vertex colors (no textures) such as plant and that didn’t work exactly as hoped with Raylib (bindings-specific? maybe not?) either. Guess old tech isn’t as supported as I thought it would be.
That’s all I have to post now.
I hope it’s popcorn. With an M&M lottery too. I’d say that shows how old I am, but I don’t know if that was a common thing.
Also, welcome to the internet where everything is made up and the points don’t matter.
I mean… Teresa certainly wouldn’t involve a condom even if aware of having an STD…
