i get to find out if i have the covids in a few hours
i spent a whole day in close proximity to someone who currently has it, and has symptoms still so if i don't test positive for it, i can eschew logic and reason and presume that i am in fact an invincible god
Man oof The pub next to my workplace has an open streetside patio so it's not uncommon to have chatter of people getting drunk nearby as I'm waiting for my ride home Today there was a man and a woman at a table and the woman was very audibly expressing her disdain for people who identify as women without the biology to match Her argument as I was hearing it was that she doesn't like it because reduces femininity down to appearance and "to wearing heels and having long hair", that it dismisses all the biological struggles of being female I've just never encountered an actual TERF like that in public before
I think the guy was trying to, not reason with her, but go "but well maybe" so I hope he's a friend or a relative or something because otherwise Like I said, man, oof

no??? obviously not????? have you ever seen anno speak about eva or anything else? have you ever seen anno's works? have you seen 33.0+1.0? it makes very clear what his vision is
I was going to flip if 4.0 was bad, but it was good and ended the series in a nice way that was fair to the fans. I think anno treated eva respectfully and not just like it was a product.

> Humans aren't the only species with a well-developed drinking culture. The social life of the humble fruit fly also revolves around alcohol. Their favorite food, rotting fruit, ferments into a beer-strength quaff. Courtship often involves swarming boozy locales and getting frisky after imbibing. Flies also use alcohol as a palliative, taking to drink after repeated sexual rejection. And like humans, flies develop "drinking problems."
famous debate streamer Destiny appears to have... posssibly just outright eaten a sizable chunk of meth, believing it to be molly, like 30 hours back or something, and he's still tweakin'
It's unclear exactly how much of it he took, and how, but he did post about having been up for 36 hours straight with energy for days, and starting to wonder if it maybe wasn't molly the whole situation is so strange, cause how do you take meth and go more than a few hours before you start wondering if maybe that wasn't a completely different substance with very noticably different effects?
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
how could he possibly think that's molly there's no way
S C
RIGHT?

he posted that picture in his discord asking his fans to tell him if they could identify it

Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
yeah this sounds far fetched probably a publicity stunt
S C
If it is Fake, it's to get out of a debate But I mean, this incident notwithstanding, I don't think he's so smooth in the brain this is his first fake scenario for an excuse lmao
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
that's very clearly methamphetamine i struggle to believe anyone could think it is molly
S C
I mean yes it absolutely is, but either he's dumb enough to think it's molly or he's seemingly a genius who correctly predicted people have such a low opinion of him, they'd believe him when he said he did think it was molly
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
or he just failed his deceive roll crit fail on deceive
I'm struggling to believe it myself, but both scenarios are so outlandish Either he's successfully bamboozled me and many others by making himself out to be an absolute fool, or he IS an absolute fool
S C
I choose to believe it's real Because it's funnier, and it's what he claims
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
i just can't believe it is real maybe if it were some sheltered rich kid who spends no time around other people but this guy spends his time online with others who do drugs and talks about doing drugs with those people
Anno
Well I tick off all those except rich I'd have no idea what meth or Molly looks like to be honest
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
which is why i would believe it if you used a meth crystal and thought you were doing molly
Anno
Can you fucking imagine That would be absolutely horrible
Kirara 🍄 ／人◕ ‿‿ ◕人＼
i think of all the drugs you in particular should never do, meth is at the top lol
I mean you could probably have fooled me into thinking it's like, pure molly or something, but I'm pretty sure I'd have realized it wasn't fucking molly after a rather short amount of time Comparably First instinct would absolutely be to think it's meth tho

>Hi, we're Andres and Ryan, the founders of Ancana (https://en.ancana.co/). Ancana is a marketplace for buying fully managed vacation homes through fractional ownership.
nice startup you reinvented timeshares >This pushes many people into timeshares, which are notorious for hidden fees, pushy sales tactics, and difficulty to sell. With Ancana, you can own a 1/4 or 1/8 share of the home and split expenses with the other co-owners. If you buy a 1/4 share of a home, you have access to it for 3 months of the year. For each property we set up the investment trust, find qualified co-owners, and handle the entire real estate purchase transaction. Costs are split amongst the co-owners, and we take care of the furnishing and ongoing property management. what's the difference it's still a freakin timeshare
>>973209 Cool I pirated a tensor calculus book and have been trying to read it but I only got 8 pages in before I got lost.

Although on the bright side there is a very concise explanation of Strassen's algorithm for fast matrix multiplication.

Yeah that doesn't really seem like good business design
月
it probably catches a lot of people and they're probably making money by selling information
I saw a bit of it in action I'm not 100% sold on the 2D sprites in the 3D world and the game worlds seem a little bit on the "cram in content instead of design with intent" side of things But it does look fun to move around in and the game is definitely cute, yeah
this old english dude makes some really good looking food when he cuts into the dumplings at the end i nearly died
S C
I really should consider getting a new pan the one I have is fine, but it seems to be a bit higher in the middle somehow, butter and oil all kinda collect on the outer edges all the time, makes frying stuff a bit of a pain
!C0.PerkELE
if a pan bends out of shape, it is finished
Anno
yeah one of my least favorite realizations that comes with adulthood is that pans and utensils are both expensive and temporary i thought my father had always used the same skillet growing up, the one he taught me a lot of cooking with but it turns out it was like 5 purchases of the same skillet
Anno
my pans were quite high quality when i received them, but i fear it may be time for new ones in the next year or so
There's a reason a lot of older people really swear by the cast iron tools They're a pain to clean, but they're so much more durable than these newer non-stick things
I don't have a dishwasher anyway, so maybe I'll get some of that stuff
cast-iron that's enameled with porcelain or ceramic is my favorite kind of pan i have this same pan at home it's very nice >>973282 no not really although i use wooden spatulas mostly so maybe metal would scratch it but i just never use metal spatulas
Porcelain is a bit of a pain cause it scratches easily, tho, isn't it?
S C
Though, realistically, I don't end up making too much food requiring particularly good tools, cause I'm just one person, so most recipes are simply unreasonable For some stuff you can just make less, but something like a stew, there's kind of a hardcap on how little you can make before you're just frying ingredients in a water bath in the oven
Anno
i tend to make large meals and just eat them over the course of at few days it's the most cost-effective for me, i find
That's definitely also a good option, at least for food that doesn't lose the consistency over time Some stuff's kinda supposed to be chewy and crisp, though, so those are a bit of a no-go
I did make this really good chicken and tomato soup that I ate out of for a few days once though, so it's not like I haven't done it at all It's a good idea for me when it's something I just recently started eating, but I'm a bit particular with food so at some point I'll just stop eating something I really like and it'll just be left until I have to throw it out
S C
Like I'll find something new I like, and that's gonna be the only thing I eat for maybe a week Then one day I'll just not want it anymore, and probably just not eat that day because I don't have anything lined up
Anno
the recipe for these dumplings calls for suet which is like beef lard but what if i just don't
i enjoy the game a lot but i'm not free2play by any definition of the word it's also important to know going in that there's a ton of content and gameplay up until there isn't and then it's just logging in once a day and doing dailies until the next content patch but also you don't have to pay money and the difference between top tier and bottom tier characters isn't as high as people make it out to be having the proper build and team setup and properly investing resources is _way way way_ more important
S C
do the featured character banners rotate so you get another chance if you missed it the last time? >>973291 That's fine, I was really mostly wondering if I'll have to dig up my old account to have Venti again Or whatever 5star I rolled, I don't remember >>973291 If Venti is someone you get through rolling for 5stars, Venti's who I had I just wasn't sure if you got him through story or rolling, is all
I think I got him on the first roll, too, I vaguely remember that
Anno
they do, but it's usually a few months and i imagine a second rerun will be even later
i really want Zhongli but it might be a long time >>973290 if you had Venti, you probably want that account if had Diluc or Mona, it's maybe worth it if you had Keqing, then it's worth it to me because she's cute, but Keqing or any not-previously mentioned 5-star isn't worth it probably
Anno
>>973290 Yeah i did say that thing about top tier and bottom teir and it still holds true but Venti is absolutely nuts if only because you don't need very much investment or skill to make him work he's not actually the best but he's just really easy to use and build
Well for Genshin, you just wanna have characters you like, anyway And I like Venti
Anno
yeah that's mostly true with no 5 stars or only one 5 star you can make some really good teams Xiangling and Xinqiu are better than most 5 stars Xingqiu*
Kaeya and Ningguang are sicko mode characters too Razor and Beidou can get work done and as far as healing goes, Barbara and Noelle are perfectly capable
Anno
apparently Electro Traveler is pretty good but you're gonna be a long ways off from unlocking that probably

Anno
>>973365 Myth was the same way The EN branch seems to be pushing strong character roles for their members Over time they'll either settle into the roles or leak a bit of their natural personalities in And the pressure to conform to the role will lessen up
Also a follow-up to above, all the Hololive gens have this kind of character roleplay during debut It's probably easier to gloss over it when watching JP debuts if you don't have fluent comprehension of the language Over time, some of them learn how to become the role without making it too overwhelming, or just discard most of the role to be themselves

>The fastest that you can stop any bike of normal wheelbase is to apply the front brake so hard that the rear wheel is just about to lift off the ground. In this situation, the rear wheel cannot contribute to stopping power, since it has no traction. >The rear brake is O.K. for situations where traction is poor, or for when your front tire blows, but for stopping on dry pavement, the front brake alone provides the maximum stopping power, both in theory and in practice. damn TIL
>Many cyclists shy away from using the front brake, due to fear of flying over the handlebars. This does happen, but mainly to people who have not learned to modulate the front brake. >The cyclist who relies on the rear brake for general stopping can get by until an emergency arises, and, in a panic, he or she grabs the unfamiliar front brake as well as the rear, for extra stopping power. This can cause the classic "over the bars" crash.
>Jobst Brandt has a quite plausible theory that the typical "over-the-bars" crash is caused, not so much by braking too hard, but by braking hard without using the rider's arms to brace against the deceleration: The bike stops, the rider keeps going until the rider's thighs bump into the handlebars, and the bike, which is no longer supporting the weight of the rider, flips. >This cannot happen when you are using only the rear brake, because as soon as the rear wheel starts to lift, the rear wheel skids, limiting its braking force. Unfortunately, though, it takes twice as long to stop with the rear brake alone as with the front brake alone, so reliance on the rear brake is unsafe for cyclists who ever go fast. It is important to use your arms to brace yourself securely during hard braking, to prevent this.

It seems to only be on firefox, actually I dunno what could be causing it though
This is like the single worst ISP in the fucking country, so I wouldn't have been surprised if they actually did hijack DNS requests But it seems to have been some other hiccup, cause now I access the dock of smugglers without issues
That's really the main issue, since all ISPs are required by law to block it and other similar sites at a DNS level They're not required to prevent you from accessing it, they're just not allowed to have their DNS resolve it for you
Initially, the government wanted to enforce just outright blocking access to it, but some ISPs took that shit to court and won out on the grounds that it falls under free speech protections or something, and the government isn't allowed to legislate what content people can access, even though they can ban ISPs from listing said content on their DNS And that protection goes pretty hard, it's really a full stop. The government can't even legislate a ban on more morally bankrupt shit, those filters are actually wholly voluntary, not even enforced on the level this is, for some fucking reason.
S C
That said, they haven't needed to enforce them, since most ISPs have voluntarily participated in the cops' filter on that shit. I'm not certain if that's also a DNS block or what though.
