Hi, there!

💆

I was born in 1989, so I am an ancient grandpa and demand respect for my lawn. (/s ya right like I own a house)

(P.s. I am not a sexy hairy ripped daddy bear, but I do own a cat named Tammy 🐈‍⬛)

  • I have heard this from multiple people even when I worked at a liquor store. That when you are on an upper or something that gives you speed that you cannot get drunk. Is this true? And how?

    Jump

  • you're actually only partially correct. alcohol is a stimulant when your BAC is increasing (like it does when you're actively drinking). it only becomes a depressant when your BAC is decreasing. pretty interesting and strange, and definitely something you don't wanna mix with medical stimulants!

  • They may not actually be referring to the state of drunkeness. alcohol is also an upper, and mixing two uppers is ill-advised

  • cheaper refrigeration would DEFINITELY help this problem. the big issue with food waste is food spoils so quickly (especially produce and meat), so it makes more sense to toss it than try to find a big enough space that's REFRIGERATED because the food is usually free, no one wants to spend thousands preserving it. cheaper refrigeration would absolutely improve this scenario.

  • my program is significantly better than either of those options, including fully functional hotkeys, hybrid gamma/overlay brightness logic, hdr detection, quicktray shortcut slider, a complete scheduling system, window behavior/startup options, and an attractive dark interface all in a tiny window.

    and i did it in only 3 days. overkill? good, cuz i got the software i needed without knowing how to code in only 3 days. also, I've learned a ton about programming logic and code structure. it's hard to tell an llm to do something you yourself don't understand. at least if you want to build anything complex.

  • so what is it then? i used llms to write the code for a feature complete desktop screen dimming application. did i produce it, if not develop it? am i just a... logic guide? legitimately asking because the program works better than any available alternative

  • I got a 90$ laser printer for home 5 years ago. I've printed at least 600 pieces of paper, and have only had to change the toner cartridge once (recently). I can get a 2 pack of toner for about 24$.

    This is how i think about printing now: i needed some black paper in a pinch once, so i printed a solid black image on both sides of a sheet of paper.

    laser all the way
