  • Ooh watched an AutoPulse one!

    AutoPulse looks almost Star Trek. Very sleek and usable. It looks so unassuming when they pull it out, then it makes that chest COMPRESS. I'm aware that you have to press hard enough to get the ribcage moving, but I was not prepared for such an unassuming device to have that much force. I can see them slipping a vest onto someone in star trek that pumps their heart and helps carry them to sick bay.

    Lucas is more star wars. It looks like a rib cracker.

    So I think I'd prefer an auto pulse XD

  • I may become a Linux boy once windows 10 is EOL.

    The enshittification of Windows seems to be accelerating at a crazy rate. Haven't used linux in like 15 years when I tried using uBuntu, and I've heard it's only grown exponentially better.

  • The change in cell phones is truly unreal.

    Just really hope the cell phone software catches up and is less trash as time goes on.

  • I will use the sidewalk when approaching a busy high speed intersection so I can cross as a pedestrian using the cross walk. These are always larger sidewalks and I slow down a ton so I haven't had any problems and seems like what the bikers do.

    Otherwise I am in the bike lane/bike path/gutter/road. For places I go to a lot I've found routes that are mostly along non busy roads where it's more chill. Where I am the rules are just the same as for bikes. I have considered ebikes, since the range on those are comically long.

  • Easier management of potentially deadly medical conditions is super exciting!

  • Oh true! Which is also why my scooter is so powerful for the price.

    20 miles on a charge on a device I bought for $400? Absurd.

  • Boys will be boys got me giggling pretty hard.

    I will accept 3k subs, but you’re on thin ice!

  • Right on! Perfect little niche content creator. A channel like that is probably great for a new player cause they probably can review courses for a much more sane level.

  • Yeah offering people a chance to escape poverty and then watching them lose that hope is pretty brutal.

  • Fair enough! Yeah a lot of people complain about Mr Beast, but I've yet to see something that isn't a knock off of other game shows, so that's why I was curious if people in general just have turned against the more insane game shows.

    90% of his game shows are survivor/big brother knock offs, which sounds like you probably detest as well.

    Price is right is pretty chill! feel like people are less likely to wanna commit suicide over not winning compared to some other shows.

  • Yeah I guess for me the mr beast stuff are almost always just exact clones of other game shows so that's why I'm like... I wonder if Mr beast is just bringing out the fact that a lot of people hate the more insane game shows.

    What a novel idea /s

    So dumb how much power twitter got for politics. Fediverse for life!

  • Update on looking for a cheap escooter that can go 10+ miles!

  • Honestly never paid attention to charging speed, never actually gotten the silly thing under 25%, and most of the time after riding it's still over 50%. So I just plug it in whenever I'm done with it and I know it'll be full when I get back.

    not a super helpful answer.

  • Glad to hear you were able to stay strong! I gave up on bikes and the like for awhile, and was in Nissan Leaf for a couple years. But a bit over a year ago I took the plunge and the money savings is just absurd. Even my life required $150 a month insurance, and repairs were always nasty, be it tires or that stupid AC that would have taken 2k to fix.

    Uber also really is helpful as well, because once I had a large package I needed to take to the post office and I just grabbed an uber. Then another time I needed to take my cat to an emergency vet, so I called an uber pet.

    Another time I found a great deal on a new looking sofa for $50, so I rented a truck. Was still WAY cheaper than buying the stupid thing new.

    So having uber as a backup has really made life easier for me.
