“I ate sigma pie and it was delicious!” Sounds like something that’d show up on my university’s YikYak, alluding to eating out a sorority chick from Sigma Pi lol
Idk if that’s a legitimate sorority, but I know that regardless of the sorority mentioned someone would reply something like “wait till you try a pi phi 😜” and/or someone would say you’re going to get an STD from that particular sorority
Well, polyamorous relationships exist, or maybe it’s a relationship a la
Wait does that count as polyamory?
If you didn’t want me to bite it why did you bring it to my domain?
No no no
Snack the keeps, booze the purge
That’s what they meant
Lloyd Braun, I just wanted serenity
But you had to go testin’ me, gave me suicide tendencies
Free Media Heck Yeah. They lost their ml domains but do still have their main site FMHY.net which you should definitely avoid if you don’t want to accidentally pirate anything…
I was raised Mormon so let me tell you the real Zion, “new Jerusalem” is actually in Jackson County Missouri. The church just hasn’t bought every square inch of land there yet lol
Can’t “have a revelation” that “the lord says it’s time to establish Zion in Jackson Missouri” until after you can profit off all the land value increase due to demand.
First time using the internet was probably playing poptropica with my siblings.
First time really using the internet was trying to get the ancient windows XP computer in our basement to be less slow and connect to the internet secretly. Ended up going down rabbit holes leading me to learn to write simple viruses, learn what Linux was, and learn to hop on tor for anonymous chat rooms with random strangers across the world.
Sure I was super afraid of viruses and pedos, but it was a nice escape from the small religious town I was being raised in at the time. It was nice being able to talk about philosophy and my own opinions without an adult hitting me for “defying god” or saying “homeopathic medicine is pseudoscience” etc.
It’s kind of odd how nostalgic I am for basic html websites and old looking IRC clients. I’m pretty young for someone who misses “the old internet” but that was the only kind of internet interaction I could really access (without parental supervision) for a long time.
I like vocaloid music, but many of the songs are in Japanese which I don’t speak
Feel like the steps typically go the other way
Technically, yes, you are correct because I don’t inhale at all lol
I have bad lungs, so I’ve only had edibles and shit like that. The first one I tried was 15mg…? I know one of my stoner friends only took a half because a full one was “too much for right now” idk what that means since we basically just sat around and watched movies.
Tbf, that time I think it might have made me slightly more likely to laugh at stupid shit, but it was also the first time I’d been with my old friends in a while, so maybe I was just in a more relaxed mood already. Didn’t really feel any other affects.
All other times have been unremarkable. Also I really am not a fan of being able to faintly smell/taste THC for days afterwards.
Idk if I’ve completely missed the joke here, but seriously this is me with alcohol and weed and even stimulants.
The only affect I get from alcohol is a headache or slight dizziness if I drink a significant amount. THC doesn’t seem to do anything at all, and stimulants typically just make me sleepy or anxious or nothing at all (I’m ADHD)
While “varying degrees of hostility” seems valid, I don’t really agree in most cases.
“AI” is a very useful predictive tool especially in like biochemistry, but gen AI for images, especially using corpo models, is a really horrible use of it.
Trying to generate an image using a pixel by pixel based model is like trying to approximate pi using a simulation of sliding blocks, counting collisions. Will it work? Yeah. Is it very accurate? Not really unless you waste a shit ton of time and processing power.
The energy cost alone is a significant reason to despise AI generated art, but add to it the fact you’re using other people’s work without crediting them, and the fact that using and hyping up this art encourages other corpos to build their own models, wasting even more energy and practically DDOSing sites to scrape data…
Doesn’t seem like this stuff is very redeemable.
I guess I don’t have anything against personal models trained on data with permission from the artists and run locally. Hell, if you know the style you want, it’s best to train with just that style and not all the art on the internet, but if you’re already putting in that much time, you could probably just pay an artist or draw it yourself.
(Don’t tell me I chose the wrong instance lol I’m aware)
I originally used linux because I could only get my hands on ancient or broken tech.
Then I switched to Windows again because I was able to buy a modern laptop and started university which more or less required Microsoft services.
Two years ago I started using Linux on my dual booted machines more frequently. Last year I realized I mostly didn’t need Windows so I decided to find a daily driver distro.
I forgot how easy it is to get caught up in distro hopping lol. I started with Debian because I remembered apps with Linux support typically only provide .deb packages.
Then the new KDE came out and I couldn’t wait to use it so I moved to fedora. Then, in looking into visual aesthetics, I decided I wanted to give hyprland a try and honestly just try Arch and make everything my own.
That was a mistake. Too many options to the point I was only using my computer for messing with the visuals.
I moved to fedora because it would just work, used it for a semester, and then moved back to arch (w/ xfce) and have been using it ever since.
I’d say around the switch from Arch to Fedora was when I became a Linux nerd because I realized that there isn’t really a best distro for every circumstance. My nerdiness has reached enlightenment lol
