Same, I knew something was up with my gender from a young age, I just wasn’t able to really make sense of it until my 30s when I found other nonbinary people online.

It really whips the llama’s ass.

I wasn’t aware GMail even had ads (aside from the inevitable spam). uBlock and/or PrivacyBadger must have been killing them for me.

Pretty sick of this shit from Microsoft.

Hmm... the office building where I work has been noticeably more empty ever since the lockdown, more open marking spaces and smaller lunchtime crowds at the restaurants, because everyone is doing at least partial remote work. My company has about 2/3 of its employees working remotely now, and our office got remodeled…

I’m coming over right now and bringing extra coffee with me.

But seriously, one thing that frustrates me about studies like this is they look at prevention without also looking at treatment. Prevention is of course preferable, sure, but there are also millions of people with diabetes right now.

I’ve been all over the…

Novo Nordisk’s “programs made to help patients get insulin at a cheaper price” has a couple hoops to jump through to get it, and I still have to pay $95/month for their long-acting insulin. That’s better than $450 copays with my supposedly “good” insurance, but c’mon.

Other, non-insulin diabetes meds are also stupidly…

So it’s basically just a way of gathering information on your interests for advertising purposes.

I like my customized Astral Purple controller with Ash Gray / Storm Gray parts, but that one is truly gorgeous. I can’t justify it though.

For a racing league, they sure were slow to get around to banning it.

The first TRON movie comes off a bit cheesy IMHO... but it was also cyberpunk in the matrix/metaverse/whatever before Gibson and Sterling, which has certainly got to be good for something!

The second movie, eh... it was a pretty special effects movie with a great score, and a little bit of cringey dialog.

Honestly, I’d…

Also Dylan: “New records have sound all over them. There’s no definition of nothing, no vocal, no nothing, just like... static.”

And:  “CDs are small, there’s no stature to it.”

Agreed about hobbyists... ask them what they want, don’t assume.

And then don’t be surprised if they only ask for things that are obscure, expensive and/or hard to find, because they’ve already got the stuff they really need/want anyway.

As far as cables go, sometimes you can get away with cheap unshielded ones, but…

Having played quite a bit with making fake book covers on app.wombo.art, it seems like these tools are bad at cropping in general.

They removed the “cargo run contracts” thing within the first couple of weeks of release.

At the time that I bought it:

- You could play any modes without grinding/paying.
- You could unlock about 90% of the units (depending on luck of the draw) without the Founder’s Pack or spending real money, just through the…

Yeah, there are 31 HyVee stores in all of Missouri, and the closest one to St. Louis is 110 miles away.

But there are 26 Schnucks stores just within 10 miles.

Dost thou also have a problem with singular “you”? :)

The first one might always be my favorite, but I’m not disappointed with this book at all. Yes, it’s another book where the protagonist has identity/memory issues and is being kept in the dark and there are other conspiracies afoot and the reader is pretty lost. But I find it a bit more solid and intriguing than the…

The cymatics thing in Stormlight Archive was pretty neat, and I kind of feel like we might see more on that.

But (possible spoilers) as a sound synthesis nerd, the phase cancellation stuff in book 4 was part awesome and part annoying. It’s kind of mindbending that the rhythms/tones of Roshar are phase locked (which…

Nonsensical worldbuilding, mediocre plot, but it looks really striking and once in a while manages to be as cool as it tries to be. Plus Daft Punk.

The 1982 Tron arcade game was good too. A sort of anthology game with variants of breakout/snake/tank/top-down shooter, with fun graphics for its time, and thick, layered s…
