Last time, I used: “Anybody need anything while I’m out?” and that went over well. May not make it through this surgery on Friday, so I turn to Lemmy for top-notch suggestions for my potential last words!
<span style="color:#323232;">Who's the black private dick
</span><span style="color:#323232;">That's a sex machine to all the chicks?
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Shaft, ya, damn right
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Who is the man that would risk his neck
</span><span style="color:#323232;">For his brother man?
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Shaft, can you dig it?
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Who's the cat that won't cop out
</span><span style="color:#323232;">When there's danger all about?
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Shaft, right on
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">They say this cat Shaft is a bad mother
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Shut your mouth
</span><span style="color:#323232;">But I'm talkin' 'bout Shaft
</span><span style="color:#323232;">Then we can dig it
</span><span style="color:#323232;">
</span><span style="color:#323232;">He's a complicated man
</span><span style="color:#323232;">But no one understands him but his woman
</span><span style="color:#323232;">John Shaft
</span>
Nope. Spent 30 years working crazy hours since my early 20s with nothing to show but a beaten up body and a permanent state of stress and anxiety. I did the “right thing” and went to a well regarded university, etc. I hope things work out for you though.
Image transcription: a section of a Wikipedia article titled “Relationship with Reality”. It reads “From a scientific viewpoint, elves are not considered objectively real. [3] However,” End transcription.
God doesn’t exist. The tooth fairy doesn’t exist. Elvis Presley is dead. If you want to believe there is a possibility for any of these statements to be false, you have a questionable relationship with reality.
Yes, made up. Just like deities made up in more ignorant times.
Are you seriously arguing in good faith that “god” exists as anything more than a mass delusion? And you think not believing that is “edgy”? If so, I really think we’re done.
I would counter that your pedantic hair splitting is what is truly edgy. “I don’t believe in god, but I don’t believe in not god” makes no semantic difference and is rather perfect fence sitting.
If you can’t say god doesn’t exist, you are willing to say anything is possible. I believe 100% the sun will rise in the East tomorrow morning. I guess with your reasoning, I shouldn’t discount the chance that the sun will rise from the horizon in which it set. We don’t know anything!
I just keep waiting for them to actually produce the small suitcase sized product. It sounds like a excellent option for me, as opposed to the $4-5k desalinators that are the options now.
I had one of those devices. I was prescribed it after being in the hospital for an unrelated reason. Had no idea I needed one, made a hell of a difference. I was contacted by the recall and gave them all my info. They have let me know several times that they won’t send me a new one unless I can send the prescription from 10 years ago. The sleep study place was contracted with the hospital, but the office has since closed. I let them know and they just told me,“Too bad, so sad.” I was able to buy a used machine off Craigslist for $180 that is better than that old Phillips. Sorry for the verbal spew, all just to say, fuck Philips.

This seems to be some type of weird spam, and it seems to have nothing specifically to do with Pepsi and more with sugary drinks in general. Overall just very weird, AI or poor translation feeling.
Youtube let the other shoe drop in their end-stage enshittification this week. Last month, they required you to turn on Youtube History to view the feed of youtube videos recommendations. That seems reasonable, so I did it. But I delete my history every 1 week instead of every 3 months. So they don’t get much from my choices....
As soon as I have to see ads, I’m gone. Not mad, I get the business need for them. It’s just not worth it for me. Most of my actual subscriptions are through a rss reader, and that effectively blocks all but the sponsorblock ones. For which I have sponsorblock.
I have a back bedroom with sealed windows, and it gets dry sometimes. It’s for a person with horrible allergies. This room is so clean you could eat off the floor so to speak.

I’d outlaw sauce bottles which make getting it all out harder, especially the ones which don’t have the opening at the bottom and make it impossible to put the bottle with the opening facing downwards.
I’m wondering what could have caused that. Uneven power supply maybe? My pihole has been chugging away for years without much more than the occasional update when I remember.
Imagine being on the surface of Saturn. You’d see the rings. I mean, you’d be dead, but you get my point I hope. If not, picture Saturn being the size of rock, but the rings were still there. You’d still see them, yet you’d be “in” Saturn.
