In this crazy market, do I just bite the bullet and upgrade?

You may want to check if that's 90% of active utilization or things just holding onto the memory "just in case". If your running CAD, gaming, and have containers actively running at the same time, then yeah 32GB may just be cutting it, but I would find it suprising that you're actively using 90% frequently.

I guess more ram could mean not having to worry about spinning the containers up and down, but the only time I hit anywhere near 32GB is when doing heavy data workloads and those are times I'm not worried about running anything else.

Why Women Orgasm More Alone Than With a Partner

I feel like that's expected. I would think you'd find it similar with men too.

If your masturbating, them the goal is your own pleasure. When with a partner not, only are there other people to think about, but there is more room for things to not play out perfectly (tiring out, something throwing off the rythmn, etc.), or sometimes your own gratification isnt the focus.

Ebook/Manga/Light Novel manager recommendation?

Audiobookshelf, Its designed for audiobooks and its folder structure is unintuitive, but it's got the best website and apps of all the ones I've tried (including kogma).

I messed around with a couple of different approaches (Calibre web, kogma, etc.), but the best all around experience I have had is Audiobookshelf. Kogma is probably better if just doing manga, but Audiobookshelf has worked the best for hosting comics/manga/ebooks. The only real annoying things is the folder structure. I've needed to use some scripts to reorganize/rename files so it handles them correctly.

Why Women Orgasm More Alone Than With a Partner

Reply in thread

I mean, the orgasm gap is a seperate, although related issue. The main premise of the article is that women orgasm more by themselves than with a partner. I was just saying that statement would be my baseline assumption given the reasons why people masturbate vs engage in sex.

I think the article is good, but seems to mostly just reaffirm previous findings/understanding of human sexuality.

Number of annual U.S. Pedestrian Fatalties

Reply in thread

This pdf shows that it seems "light trucks" which includes SUVs account for pretty much all the growth in pedestrian fatalities - GHSA Pedestrian Fatalitis

What's interesting is that the growth is pretty much all night time crashes. If this information is correct, it raises the question if the increase is due to slower reaction times at night compounded by the heavier vehicles or is it simply that SUVs when involved in an accident lead to death over injury.

Sadly I can't find a "pedestrian accidents" by year, as that would help to better understand if less people are surviving the same number of accidents or if more accidents are happening due to the increase in SUV usage.

What's one highly extolled piece of media that you absolutely cannot stand in any way shape or form.

I mean, I think you explain the reasoning in your own comment, the writing (at least in the English translation for me) was so rough that I couldn't get into it. I can't say I hated it, I just never got far into it because it couldn't keep my attention.

I'm surprised to hear someone say the poor writing was a plus for them. Why did that make you enjoy it more?
