We save gift bags. Some have been passed around over a decade at this point.

I just hate the consumerism of it all. Gift giving shouldn’t be or feel to be obligatory, it should just be something extra and unexpected.

What’s ZRAM?

I am honestly not sure if that’s a bad thing aside from the capitalism of it all. Almost all tasks normal people do could be done with a 10 year old computer running Linux.

I will find it hilarious if this RAM pricing issue causes people to move to Linux rather than have slow ass Windows 11.

Cameras are typically angled down and have a little rain hood.

I am wondering if a super soaker with very salty water would work. It should heavily obscure the lens when dried and if someone doesn’t clean it properly it will scratch it to hell.

100% agree.

You mention Boston, so I will share my experience with New England. There are “farmers markets” advertised everywhere, but 90% its just a free way for people to setup stands for candles, honey and overpriced crafts. The few people who bring produce to the market often realize that there is no real demand so they can sell 500% marked up veggies to upper class wives that don’t actually do any manual shopping and know what prices should be. Not to mention the difference between quality.

Same, but it’s just because I don’t comment or post as I don’t speak Mandarin, so the majority of the people wouldn’t even know what I am saying. What’s the point you know?

I have found a bunch of really cool recipes, man they love their eggs…

No, it’s not even like Tiktok at all. The vast majority of the content is in Mandarin and if you aren’t Chinese your not going to know the asinine culture rules and get banned for something you thought was silly, but they take very seriously.

The distinction is key. Honeybees are one of the biggest reason other Bees and native pollinators are going extinct. Honey bees are voracious foragers and will out compete almost all other pollinators.

There are anti honey bee non profits with missions between eradicating honey bee nests they find to just relocating them to places where they can be used for monocrops.

If the extreme native pollinator crowd got their way we would all be fucked as honey bees currently account for 75% of ag pollination, with the remainder mostly being self pollinated plants.

Doesn’t DuckDuckGo offer a subscription service that monitors/blocks those requests?

What is it useful for? I actually have a hard time finding a use for it… Its alright at book recommendations, sometimes.

You get picked up as a pet project by the Financial Engineering Professor at your college who teaches you a lot of statistical wizardry and sthochastic calculus and grooms you to become his newest and greatest quant he can brag to his Wallstreet buddies about. They have already seen your projects with the professor, the interview is pomp.

You make 2M your first year and are making well over 10M by your fifth year. You work 80+ hours a week, making some other people very, very rich. After a decade you are very burnt out and wondered why you ever wanted to do this in the first place. You quit your ridiculously high paying job at your hedge or whatever fund and move to upstate NY to get your teaching credentials and then go teach maths to high school students who will ask “when will this ever be useful” and you smile in your quietude over the whifs of the coffee in your thermos as the students finish the pop quiz of the day.

That’s what mathematicians do in my experience.

Problem, seems like a solution to me.

IR Blaster too!

I actually appreciated that they put in the “intranasal” because it would have made way more sense without it.

The shot when they come downstairs is a tad ruined by a rockstar drum pad lol.

The vertical is the worst of them.

Why can’t I see your picture? Is it the app I am using?

I would guess tourism. It seems like that’s what it’s currently used for.
