I tried to buy candy yesterday and the candy canes had already replaced the halloween candy. Awful.

If you tried to discuss it with anyone you would be ridiculed and sometimes even physically threatened.

I don’t know if this is true. You can read plenty of early/mid 20th century books where characters will outright talk about how they don’t believe in a god. Sure certain areas you could get away with it more, but I think there has always been some prevailing strain of people just going along with the community aspect and not being a believer.

Its sadly either an IT degree with an emphasis in looking at PCAPs and hardening servers, or its doing nationstate level hacking. For the latter, the degree doesn’t do much unless you do a TON of hacking shit in your free time and teach yourself to dream in assembly.

Don’t forget taking some of the worst photographs known to man.

What on earth are these discord servers. I don’t understand why someone would hang out on a place like that.

Have you seen this?

I haven’t written asm in years though, so I cant whip up a putc loop example.

I have this really shitty drip pot that cost 34 dollars 8 years ago. The drip valve broke off when I dropped the filter cone a couple years ago so now you have to wait until it’s good and done before you even think about taking coffee.

It maximizes my micro plastic consumption but it simply won’t die.

I grind my beans with an electric burr grinder that I have never cleaned and now it’s not outputting as much grinds as it should so I’ll have to give in and take it apart soon.

I used to use this hand grinder daily for like 2-3 years. Its a really nice japanese one with ceramic burrs that I bought on impulse. I’m really glad I got the electric grinder as a gift.

I love when I don’t log on for a couple days and I can sit out the latest struggle session

I’m not that certain about this, but I feel like you’d have a hard time finding a place that hasnt flooded in the last 100-200 years.

There’s this article going around on :reddit: about a yazidi woman rescued from Hamas and it’s making me lose my mind. Hamas and Hezbollah literally fought ISIS. Hezbollah being a huge force against them. This is a new Nayirah testimony 100% and I’m losing my mind seeing it in real time, only reported on bottom rung news sites. They’re saying it was a joint intelligence effort in the article. They’re saying the guy was hamas-isis.

I’m so tired of this

I love wizards with guns so fuckin much. They’ve been grinding for years for mid views and subscribers. I think they’re on the uptake now.

I think they’re a spiritual successor of wkuk.

Did I stutter?

Personally I think kids should vape more. Teen vaping is on a downward trend which I think is tragic. These kids are such dorks.

They pivot the anti-smoking ads to vaping, acting like its the same thing, and these losers eat it up.

Yeah that’s the typical go-to. Only good reason for the photo-id verification on the internet imo.

Holy shit c’mon. The regulators think “tobacco” is the neutral flavor that should be the only one allowed. By far worse than unflavored.

I can barely get snus online because “mint” is too attractive to children I guess.

Why cant a guy vape in peace.

I knew a few folks who were on the depressed side and I didn’t mean to lump them in. I saw a lot of it first hand and the behavior was different ime. Like the lazy kids were very “give me the answer” while the people having a seriously hard time were not pushy and sorta silently fell behind.

A lot of my friends didn’t make it to graduation. It was really hard seeing it happen but they weren’t in a headspace to accept help. A couple times a month there’d be a classmate who would just stop showing up.

10 years ago when I started college, I watched 100s of freshman lug their g*mer laptops into the lab for tutoring the night the intro CS class homework was due. They were too busy the rest of the week gaming to do the homework, so they began 4 hours before it was due and begged for help.

Most of them didn’t make it to their sophomore year. I don’t feel that bad, the work load was not that heavy, the tutors were there every day of the week. I had a really hard time grasping programming at first, so I was there daily. The homeworks were given a week ahead of time, the lecture notes spelled out 80% of the solution, and the tutors loved to help. The students just didn’t want the help.

This conjures a similar feeling. idk maybe I’m being a dick.

I use it for work and I find it clunky and an overall mid messaging experience. It feels like groupme from 7 years ago. I know the “nothing to hide trope” is shit, but sometimes you actually are saying little of substance and you want a nice user experience day-to-day rather than sacrifice features and UX for a privacy boogieman.

I said theoretically.

But also what’s worse, a colonizer or calling the cops on a colonizer?

They never were and never advertised as such. There’s secret chat’s that only work from the originating device to the receiving device that are e2e.

Group chats were never encrypted because they’re convenience chats, not places to tell secrets. IE you can look back at all the history and shared files from any device you log into. You can search for a message from 2 years ago to remember something that was discussed previously.

I’m a big telegram defender because it’s the nicest cross platform chat app to stop your parents from creating the n+1th mms group chat from their iphones, torturing all android users. It’s also not a Meta app, and doesn’t have the nerd requirements of an actual encrypted chat.
