Ginger and cinnamon, as well as garlic for some people, accelerate your metabolism. You feel like you have more energy, no matter what you eat. And you burn more energy just sitting down doing nothing (faster metabolism) but also because you get more active.

It’s kind of but not exactly like coffee, chocolate and chilli, but also these have an effect much much shorter. In my case, they last a couple hours, while ginger and garlic give me a boost of a couple days.

I think you’re grossly underestimating how hard it is to go from theory to actually playing half decently in lots of instruments.

Recorder, well you’re probably right. Piano, strings, guitar, drums and any woodwinds or brass: hell yeah

Intonation is not the hardest part of playing violin. NOT playing like you’re killing a cat is the hardest part for beginner.

Yep except if you press too hard the pitch goes up and you can’t slide the finger a mm up to compensate

Well it’s not like it takes 6 months to jump from piano to violin to oboe.

Wouldn’t it be better to commit the code generator instead?

Oh cool I’ll also start using “/s” folder

Living dangerously in agile times. I do it in /tmp and I set auto clean for every reboot.

I came here expecting people ranting over it. Let’s see what they have…

I read it but apparently you didn’t.

My question stands, wtf is amd doing to get into this mess?

What is going on with amd, is it a completely new stack for every model released?

The same that will ask you to present a government id number in 10 years to register to anything. Since with this decade’s data breaches and AI, anyone will know everyone’s PII and will be able to fake docs in seconds.

Oh is that how you guys install snaps?

/evil laugh

I have trouble using Mac. Besides that it sucks, last time it was my main machine was almost 10 years, so I don’t remember basic stuff.

Does that make me a normie? ☺️☺️☺️

I liked both this and the following article.

Pretty cool seeing everything it takes to have a minimalist Linux to boot, and I finally saw how to get started with strace that I’ve been postponing for like half a year.

Never played so no

Are you looking for practicing your Russian?

I can’t do that Hal.

The best I can do is install a plugin for more ads.

When I have said it to people with the intention of them growing, first of all it is meant for their own benefit, not for getting good grades or work recognition.

I find it is important for people to know what their unrealised potential is, and growing as a result of doing something hard, and making this a positive cycle.

But the experience has to provide the rewards in itself. Pursuing external validation or trying to align with someone else’s idea of a noble goal will only lead to frustration. As well as decreased confidence.

All that said, you can’t have that goal through all your life. Do that for a while, take a rest that could be a weekend, a month or even 10 years long if you’re going through raising kids. As long as it’s in your own terms and you’re not hurting anyone. Nobody likes assholes.

Not exactly since your VPN could be in a country that doesn’t give a shit about the laws in your country .

This, but I’d use separate browsers to keep seperate digital fingerprints. Otherwise your ad trackers would know it’s the exact same person going to site a directly and site b indirectly.

Also worth noting that Facebook has a back door on its mobile app, that keep listening on some port. When you use certain apps with meta code ( could be a newspaper that monetizes with Facebook ads ) or websites with meta code ( same “newspaper”), those apps/websites send your ad tracker id directly to Facebook app through that port. This de-anonimizes the shit out of your “anonymous” ad IDs. Other techniques rely on lots of data points and some degree of guessing, but this ways it’s mercilessly effective and accurate.
