So if I produce surplus intelligence, can I sell it back to the grid like with solar? Like if I want to just sit at home and look at memes all day, I’d have some to spare probay.

98 of world’s hottest cities

It is 98/100 of the world’s hottest cities, just fyi - not like 98 of world’s 69,420 hottest cities, or something

Yeah. Anywhere would basically be like this if you have enough money to retire luxuriously in that country. And anywhere you do that, poorer people will be making that lifestyle possible with their labor.

While I don’t doubt that the average urban Chinese citizen has a higher standard of living than the average urban US citizen, saying that moving to a poorer country where you are rich by comparison is “the american dream” is pretty wild when you’re just taking advantage of economic disparities caused by capitalism.

It’s irresponsible to move somewhere permanently when you don’t plan on really trying to integrate & instead just want to live cheaply as an expat.

Seems like a useful thing to say, though, regardless of who says it, right?

As a non-european, I’d like to see european resistance to the fascist forces of the US and Russia.

That was the point, though, I think. It’s a commentary on how society treats violence and mental health as individual, isolated character flaws rather than as systemic problems. Having a female & feminine character be the violent/troubled one was a brilliant choice imo because it goes against our stereotypes and further highlights this. That uncomfortable feeling you have would probably be less so if it was a character you expected to have issues like that

Hard to pick one, here are a few:

• Triangle of Sadness

• Challengers

• Conclave

• The Wrestler

• The Drama

Too many hitlers these days smh

Extra stupid because, even if he doesn’t care about the retail price of gasoline for normal people, gas prices drive inflation by increasing the cost to produce basically everything.

This is what I ended up doing, and it works great. I knew about aliases, but didn’t really use them at all - I didn’t know about bash functions though.

So now I have a few functions in .bashrc for short things and am just aliasing shell scripts for easy access

Oooh ty that makes a lot of sense. I was unaware of that functionality.

This should be the next step for me. When you do aliased commands, can they take arguments? Like to download a playlist with yt-dlp, could i do download-playlist [URL]?

For the unaware, they do this for livestock shows. If you can get your cow’s coat long (by cold exposure, ideally - makes them fluffy), you can shape the hair to give them the appearance of better conformation.

That can mean the illusion of a straighter back (basically by giving them like an eraser haircut along the back), more width in whatever areas might be lacking, a more balanced physique, etc.

It’s a whole thing and if you go to a livestock show you’ll see people meticulously grooming their cows like this

It’s really easy. Linux Mint. Bootable USB. Back up your important files on a separate harddrive. Plug in USB. Reboot. Install. Port old files over. Good as new

Bonus points for looking into how to optimize your partition structure, but it’d be fine to just let it do its thing. Also like… I guess you should probably make sure your audio and video cards are supported, but they like 98% are

~100mg - 300mg/day. That is 1 cup of coffee (espresso-based drink) to 3 max.

I try to limit myself to 1 now unless I am really tired or am having trouble focusing/thinking clearly. I was up to 2-3 every day, but it was messing with my anxiety more than I realized at first.

Anyone know what’s up with Fred’s head? Did he have some sort of congenital deformity or did he have part of his skull removed or something?

It’s a type of kei car - a kei truck

People believed them. That’s why there are documents detailing various agencies’ research into Epstein & co.

If no one believed them, no one would have looked into it.

Now, the Trump admin and captured agencies are trying to cover it up, redact abusers names, release victims names/info/pictures, cover the whole thing up, etc. But that’s a different story.

“West African” Peanut Stew, which is an Americanized version of various groundnut stews/maafe, is super nutritious and cheap. It is quick if you put in 1hr in advance to make like 3kg of soup, ~8 servings, for ~10 bucks. I think it’d freeze OK too.

Look up a recipe, but basically: 1 onion, garlic, 6c broth (vegetable in your case), 2lbs sweet potatoes (maybe 3lbs if vegetarian), 1 bunch greens (collards, kale, mustard greens, whichever you have/like/are ceapest), can diced tomatoes, peanut butter, 2-3tbsp vinegar, optional spices (cumin, turmeric, bay leaves, chili powder, paprika, cayenne pepper/red pepper flakes, oregano, minced ginger, msg, etc), optional garnishes: peanuts, cilantro.

Sautee 1 diced onion in a pot until translucent, add garlic and spices & sautee 30s more, add 6c broth, 2lbs cubed sweet potatoes, chopped greens, can of diced tomatoes. Bring to a boil and simmer for 20mins. Take off the heat and add 1c peanut butter and 2tbsp of vinegar (recommend adding 1tbsp at a time and tasting so as not to add too much), stir to combine. Serve.

I add 1lb chicken to mine and it makes like 3kgs of soup. Calorie dense, nutritious, very tasty. I also add a small amount of soy sauce, fish sauce, and/or worcesteshire when adding the liquid - imo this mimics some of the fermented sauces used in West African foods. Apple cider vinegar added at same time as the peanut butter really improves the dish. Salt and pepper throughout cooking, of course - but even without spices this is a tasty soup. Spices do help though.
