…how did I fail to see that coming?

Respect though - the world needs more eaters

This is great and amazing. We are our own worst enemies with the absence of rigour we apply…

This is a great idea at first glance - I’ve certainly had a few usb sticks come apart on removal

What were the useful scenarios, if you don’t mind?

It’s coming up in an odd way in the mountain biking community, where they talk about min-maxing.

The idea is minimum budget, maximum effect for that expense (what’s the best I can do with the bike I’ve got, rather than going the ‘full midlife crisis’/orthodontist approach of spending $15-25k on what’s basically the latest handbag bike).

Further to this, to human is top err - so why would you start to rely on something that’s confidently incorrect so often.

It’s only a matter of time before this misleads someone terribly

Yeah, that’s a huge success. Sure beats my spaghetti

Honestly this sounds like a good idea but a flawed implementation

Sounds like the windows 10 ‘innovation’ called fast startup. Some genius decided instead of shutting down, let’s just log the user out and put the OS into standby… That’ll save a lot of boot time!

It’s universally hated by IT and made redundant by SSDs

TdF for sure. There’s been a few, though

Prepare the memes for deployment!

This is excellent!

45 checking in. I hate them

Busy busy people

Still love these books - I wish my kids enjoyed them too

That’s amazing that they’re flexible about it - I’d not credited them with nearly enough intelligence!

So …we wear a blank face mask hoping they focus in the uniform and them systematically harass/adjust m abuse crows in a police uniform and hope they take the hint?

Doesn’t seem feasible without also getting slammed for impersonating the po-po, sadly…

I love the idea, just you go first

It’s human insecurity (read: fear).

And maybe greed, too

For your last comment, I think it’s because pain is one of the only things that motivates us

Holy crap, that’s amazing!!

I’m really intrigued about this, however - it’s like it needed some training to find the accurate ‘dosage’, or some sort of warmup/acclimation period:

For Pearson, there was an eight-month wait after the 2019 procedure to see any noticeable difference.

But gradually, the all-consuming rituals that had taken up eight or nine hours every day since her teenage years began to ebb.
