I like trains.

10 yr olds are really talented these days.

I feel like if you picked 2 for Spaceage, your the type to pronounce females like tamales, or tomatoes like tomatoes.

Oh that's me. I'm tired and bored so I'll share my story.

I was "depressed" because of working an abusive toxic job and commuting 2 hours a day for dimes. While at the same time spending my free time in the doomerism of r/fvckcars

Filled out the doctor's questionaire and was diagonised with anxiety, and depression. I even had the bottle of pills before the hour was even over.

Lost the job, and swapped my pass-time from pessimistic r/fvckcars to more optimistics YouTube/notjustbikes

No more depression, never needed those anti-depressants because it was never a proper chemical depression.

To many doctors just want to medicate the symptoms and never bother to consider the sickness underneath.

Its profit in the long run yes. But in short term extra people accumulating debt means less cash floating around the bank to put into other investments.

This can be an actual problem if it someone goes to withdraw their balance and the bank literally doesn't have money becuse too many of their credit users spent the banks cash.

Currently learning dutch through Memrise on my phone and spaced repetition on obsidian.

Its slow going due to being swamped in school work. But i've found it more effective than my highschool french class ever was.

Time for 12ft.io I guess.

Apple is highly restrictive on their OS and over priced. They are extremely pro consumerism with heavy marketing and engineered obsolescence to ensure you are always pressured to buy their new tech, and they are historically very strongly anti-right-to-repair.

Microsoft is bad. But at least they are primarily a software monopoly.

Not OC, but some ways to "reduce consumption" are reducing our usage of inefficient technology by replacing it with more energy/resource efficient means.

Examples include replacing individual automobiles with mass transit, building more dense cities to reduce consumption of construction materials/ vehicle miles, and not training massively large language models in facilities that consume more energy than an entire small country.

/Factorio

Not a fan of the factorio.com price being 3$ cad higher than steam.

As someone who dislikes M$ word, but begrudgingly uses it for lab reports. Can someone tell me what LaTeX for citations is? I know latex as that math protocol for my personal markdown notes.

Also what other software is useful for writing formatted papers?

Not loads per say, but the workers are exposed to more radiation than a nuclear reactor operator would be.

Dang most of these resemble my old reddit favourites.

Shhh

It's hard not to become numb to this all. In grade school I was taught that oil consumption was killing the world.

A decade later its still the case. The more i read into it the more i realise it was always the case.

Oil companies want to burn the world. Theres nothing more to say.

I don't belive the legal system is capable of resolving climate disasters. This leaves two options counter-terrorism or climate induced decimation of a majority of the populous.

Its insane that they've been rolling out crazy ideas every damn week.

I practice polyphasic sleep and reducing blue light is pretty important there to avoid messing your circadian rhythm.

The community recomends wearing the orange laser protection glasses, the same ones laser cutter operators use. Because that's what glasses actually have to look like to filter blue light.

What I like more is that it looks like only half the win10 users are switching to win11

Edit: -1% win10, +0.5% win11
