You’re welcome to ask things like that of me. This is within the realm of stuff I will gladly do for you.

I find np a worse message when taken literally. If I even have to write an email, it’s at least a little problem. yw allows for a problem you solved for somebody without suggesting that it doesn’t come at the expense of other priorities. Both will be interpreted the same way by almost everyone, of course.

“Locally made” makes it sounds like they’re bringing them home from the farmer’s market in a canvas bag.

When I first started drinking coffee, I didn’t get the point of a packet of sugar. The coffee was still overpowering. You’d need to up the sugar content by a factor of 10 to get anywhere, so I just went with black coffee. An old roommate had the seem realization but went the other way – he would add the equivalent of 10 packets of sugar by just pouring from the sugar container for an uncomfortable length of time. Now the ridiculously sweet coffee is a regular menu item you can order without feeling self-conscious.

Standing right there, turn until you see a pile of trash bags and take a picture of that instead. There’s your legitimate gripe with Manhattan.

Nobody’s proposing banning ambulances. You should be able to take the metro to the club. You should also be able to take it outside of the city and you can figure out the remainder of your journey from there. Reclaiming land from cars would also allow more space within cities for parks and such and decrease the need to get out of the city to escape dickheads leaning on their horns.

The roads are huge because of multiple lanes in two directions with street parking on the side. An ambulance only needs one lane.

What happens more often where you live – ambulances reach capacity or somebody gets run over and dies?

Fine, two. Two-lane, no parking roads are still only a third of the size of four-lane roads with parking on both sides.

Feel free to spit on the current state of transit; it’s shit in so many places and there’s no pretending otherwise. It’s important to stress that the transit will be unrecognizable from current state if properly funded. If people think I’m talking about them ditching their cars, getting on the existing transit and watching their trip times go up 292%, they’d be right to dismiss me.

If I were a driver, I’d simply keep my automobile on land.

My experience using Fedora Atomic (Budgie) for a month or two. (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I would just like to preface this. This is the first blog post I’ve ever written, so please please please give me feedback if you can. I also didn’t intend on it being here on Lemmy, but Hugo is quite a complex tool that’ll take some time for me to understand. Webdev is not my cup of tea....

Thermostat makes a little sense – I’ve adjusted it remotely after realizing I left it on during vacation.

Is anyone else worried about the apple vision pro?

i wouldn’t normally be concerned since any company releasing a VR product with this price tag is obviously going to fail… but it’s apple and somehow through exquisite branding and sleek design they have managed to create something that resonated with “tech reviewers” and rich folk who can afford it....

It seems like a company that would require employee-purchased headsets would already require employee-purchased laptops. Do you know of any? Honest question; I don’t, but my bubble is pretty small.

The number of times I walked out of the shower without using soap plus i times the number of times I soaped at least twice to avoid that scenario.

It’s a square root of negative one. A sneaky way to get two answers with one question.

When it’s above 100, people who have options for something lower will generally go for them. Similarly for under 0. OK, so as PancakeLegend@mander.xyz pointed out, such sensitivities might be specific to US culture, but theoretically, how much would we have to expand the 0-100 Fahrenheit range so that 0 is too cold for pretty much everyone and 100 is too hot for pretty much everyone? 0 goes to -10, 100 to 140? A new-Fahrenheit degree would still be more precise than a Celsius degree.

So the saving sentence is how far below where your average executive stopped reading?
