Sunday is upgrade day, meaning I will update the OS on my servers and then update all my helm charts.

Everyone’s always in favor of saving Hitler’s brain, but when you put it in the body of a great white shark. Ohhh, suddenly you’ve gone too far.

She's built like a steakhouse, but she handles like a bistro!

Although not explicitly AI, the movie WarGames come to mind.

I'm not sure what the drug debate of your country is like, so please correct me if my assumptions are incorrect.

In my experience, the drug debate lacks nuance, it's mostly the hardcore fans or the drugs-will-kill-you crowd that we see, while more level-headed voices are drowned out.

There's also a problem with facts. Research on a lot of drugs have been prohibited for a long time, making this a relatively new field of study.

With more studies, we're going to see confirmation of certain theories and rejection of others, making our knowledge more fact based and less opinionated.

My highly personal opinion is that it is a mistake to talk about drugs as one thing. There are tons of different drugs, and each one should be discussed by itself, not as a part of drugs. I also firmly believe that we are individuals and we all respond different to different chemicals. Saying that a chemical will have this effect on everyone is a mistake. I do however believe that a good setting, a sensible dose and someone watching over you, can drastically reduce any negative effects.

With that said, the "high" is not for everyone and that is okay.

This will undoubtedly be the most wholesome thing I see today. Thanks for posting!

 

Are there any communities that focus more on the privacy side of using crypto?

I, probably like many others, am struggling with exhaustion that seem hard to shake. It kills my hobbies and interests one by one, it makes doom scrolling and watching stupid shows seem like the only valid activities I can handle.

I have tried the "touch grass", I regularly switch off my phone to take breaks from social media, but it is hard to find motivation to anything but sleep and watch TV on the weekends.

Are there methods to deal with this sort of exhaustion from... gestures broadly at everything ?

Edit: after the initial replies I realized I probably should mention that I already do regular therapy and take prescription drugs for depression.

Edit 2: Thanks everyone for replying and handing out advice. My plan moving forward is to get some labs done to make sure I don't have any deficiencies and have my meds adjusted if they need to be. I will try eating better, be more conscious about sleep and regular exercise.

 

Hello folks, I am currently in the market for a new laptop and I want to hear from people who have hand-on experience with Linux laptops. I am currently looking at framework and tuxedo laptops, but I know very little about these companies and have a hard time finding anyone who have actually used one of their laptops.

I would appreciate getting in touch with anyone having direct hand-on experience with products from these companies (or another company that you feel should be considered) and let me know what you think of their products and the company itself.

I am interested in companies that support the right to repair and offer good warranties for their products and I need a laptop with modern hardware and a low weight.

As I was growing up, my family had a couple of sayings I took for granted were universal, at least within my language. As I became an adult I have learned that these are not universal at all:

  • the ketchup effect. It is an expression meaning that when things arrive, they all arrive at the same time. Think of an old school glass ketchup bottle. When you hit the bottom of it, first there is nothing, then there is nothing and then the entire content is on your food.
  • faster than Jesus slid down the mount of olives. Basically a saying that implies that the mount of olives is slippery due to olive oil and Jesus slipped.
  • What you lack in memory, your legs suffer. An expression meaning that when you are forgetful, you usually need to run back and thus your legs suffer.

Please share your own weird family sayings.

I wonder if the charging port on mobile devices will go the way of the 3.5mm jack and be replaced with Qi and other wireless charging protocols. I also wonder if we will be forced into Bluetooth for all extension devices we used to connect to usb-c.
