I’ve always wanted to try both of those.

Yep, I drink mead, i.e. honey wine. It’s really good, doesn’t give me as much of a headache as beer these days. Sometimes it’s too sweet, I haven’t found a good dry one around here though.

I played around with Gentoo a few years ago, got it working but then got annoyed with some binaries taking too long. Wanted to build a machine I couldn’t hack though, and now there’s a repo with precompiled bins if you ask portage nicely, so I figured I’d give it a shot again. Maybe it was the mead but I forgot to do that for gcc though. oops

What a coincidence, I’m drinking mead and installing Gentoo. Currently compiling gcc, always takes forever, maybe I should’ve gone with the recompiled binary for that one lol.

No ragrets.

You’re talking about Hellenistic Judaism, which was definitely a thing for a century or two leading up to Christianity, and it’s thought to have been subsumed into it. It’s not an unreasonable theory given that Greek mythology was familiar with the concept of demigods.

It’s the commenter’s username.

I mean it was 0.01, at that point he was screwed anyway, and he fixed his program.

37 is my favorite, because 3x7x37=777 (three sevens), and I think that’s neat.

Reminds me of a tweet I saw once:

Unlike you jaded pessimists I still have the ability to feel optimistic about something even after a lifetime of disappointment. And you know why? Because I’m stupid.

Sure, but I don’t think increased deficit spending necessarily implies “financial collapse” as long as it’s reinvested in infrastructure/research projects or allows people the financial freedom to spend more, if anything it’d be the opposite. The thing really hastening a collapse would be pooling all the money in very few places where it doesn’t get spent. You know, like some sort of oligarchical wealth transfer.

It’s $193M in stock, which can only be cashed out once Reddit IPOs, thus the drive to do so. Aside from that he gets a “mere” $600k/yr. He can probably borrow against that to a certain point, but I’m not sure a bank would value assets that can’t be liquidated.

One of the reasons I was able to argue my ADHD was impacting my life negatively was the fact I was drinking enough coffee to hurt my health just to feel human and I still had executive dysfunction, so stimulants would be more effective and overall work as harm reduction. Now I’m not even on stimulants (technically), I’m finding bupropion works best for me. I still have a small cup of coffee in the morning, as it keeps me regular.

Most of the time I don’t even write, I type or use swipe-to-text.

I believe it’s 32 bytes, but it depends on the AP, some use a null terminator as the final byte.

Unlikely as it might be, maybe the 10% error rate is from gender queer people that haven’t realized/faced it yet.

I mean, good, but was it really only kept together by a closeted bisexual and only started collapsing after she was outed?

(I am ignorant)

I’m not sure they’re self-sufficient anymore. If I remember correctly, that one study was from 20 years ago and was done by a right-wing think tank, and the trend for Texas was overall negative. They stopped that study basically right before Texas started breaking even.

I like to bear in mind the lizardman’s constant when reading about polls like this. Never underestimate people’s desire to fuck with data, sometimes just because they think it’s funny.

I mean, being trans is perfectly valid, but I think gender dysphoria itself should be classified as a mental illness so long as it brings significant pain/distress to the individual, the solution there is just gender reassignment, surgery, hormones, etc. I don’t think there should be stigma in calling it such, it needs treatment the same as anything else. People with ADHD have a mental illness and get meds, sometimes therapy, people with poor eyesight have an ocular dysfunction of some kind and get glasses or surgery or whatever, none of it should be that big a deal. The point is it can be diagnosed and treated.

I think the response to shit like “transgenderism” being a mental disease should be “well at least their/our dysphoria can be treated now, what’s your excuse?”

I have no strong feelings one way or the other.
