What really grinds my gears is that metadata on pictures you have in iCloud gets stripped when downloading to Windows. I take pictures of stuff for work and label them to know what the hell I’m looking at, but the descriptions disappear on file transfer.

So I gotta either:

• Re-add in the description in the metadata

• Label something else, like a sheet of paper or something and put it in the frame

• Manually name each individual file after transfer, which is just as laborious as adding back in the metadata.

The Son of Eric must have been really good phonesmith.

What if they had an “analog hole”: pay someone to copy and paste things-to-moderate to ChatGPT and copy and paste the responses back while logged in as the mod.

He’s got that Half-Life G-Man look on his face.

“Boss, most of the bricks we have are broken in pieces. We can’t build the wall per specifications.”

“We have a deadline, get it done however possible by the end of the day today.”

Hope for a critical piss.

This is why the discriminator /s is necessary for comments like that.

If I were to tell someone from 70 years ago, “hold on let me get my phone,” while talking about taking a picture, they would think I’m nuts.

I like tuna subs. A good close second would be the ones with lots of pepperoni. 🍕

You would think that Microsoft would have implemented better functionally by now. Yeah they had WordPad but that sucked too.

Like, c’mon, allow me to alt-highlight blocks of text already.

I can think of only a few reasons why the military would have you take training in Texas:

• Gunslingin’ with revolvers, single and akimbo

• Practicing the perfect “Yeehaw”

• Wrasslin’

• Combat maneuver training in boots with spurs

• Lasso training

The best languages allow you to program not just emojis as outputs, but with emojis themselves. 🫳⌨️🖥️

This one has a cloth like padding at the forehead, it collects the sweat but gets saturated and beads up on the front and rolls off.

It’s nice to have if it isn’t a lot of sweat, but when your entire face is drenched, it does that.

I was working outside this week (Southern US) and it was an absolutely miserable week. After a half an hour I was drenched in sweat, and it was rolling off my hard hat, getting in my eyes, and I was forced to pace myself and work much slower than I would otherwise be able to do because the heat was that intense.

I was able to drink some of my coconut water reserve because it has the things plants crave.

It’s definitely the worst summer heat I’ve felt since ever.

There’s also the distance between our eyes, the mirror, and the length of the car that we drive that also play an important subconscious role in determining depth perception of the cars in our FOV behind us. This is something you just can’t replicate with a camera as it is fixed in one location that you’re not accustomed to.

We get used to this feeling quickly, even when driving rental cars that aren’t our own. Then our brain adapts to it and we’re all good.

A cool thought about sourdough starters is that they are unique. A starter from 1897 should impart a flavor unlike any other starter. It’s like the snowflake of the yeasty realm.

I’ve got a book that has been out of print for decades that I’ve painstakingly scanned in page by page. Is there a way I can donate it to the archive?

So many trackers that even a kennel of bloodhounds can’t keep up with it.

Also front left for phone and front right for wallet and keys.

For the phone in left pocket though, only the phone is placed in it to prevent it from getting scratched (even with a screen protector it’s annoying), so nothing else goes in there.

Learned that the hard way.

If they give you flak, just say it’s part of your religion.
