WhiteOakBayou,

Context?

WhiteOakBayou,

I keep my dropouts free ebooks in Dropbox and use moonreader + to read them and sync across devices. Until I lost my library in a hdd failure I had 10k books self hosted with calibre and that was straight forward and worked well. I do also use Google Books for things I buy and like it although it lacks some QoL features of moonreader

Study Links High-Refined Carb Breakfast to Lower Perceived Attractiveness Rating (www.theguardian.com)

A French study found people who eat a breakfast high in refined carbs (like pastries and juice) were rated less attractive than those who ate whole grains (like wholemeal toast) for breakfast. This might be because refined carbs affect blood sugar and insulin, potentially impacting skin health and sex hormones. The researchers...

WhiteOakBayou,

I think I’m doing okay with 12 grain bread. I guess I need to up my grain coGod. 18 or 24 grain and I will be a god.

WhiteOakBayou,

It is. A really enjoyable book trilogy.

WhiteOakBayou,

I think you’re misunderstanding the word “order.” They mean order like “Dr’s Orders” not like the Dr is generating requests to the drug warehouse.

Rep. Ronny Jackson was demoted by Navy following investigation into his time as White House physician (www.cbsnews.com)

“The substantiated allegations in the DoDIG investigation of Rear Adm (lower half) Ronny Jackson are not in keeping with the standards the Navy requires of its leaders and, as such, the Secretary of the Navy took administrative action in July 2022,” a Navy spokesperson told CBS News.

I remember the pod save America guys talking about him before he was a Texas rep. They were saying how much they liked him and how he helped them sleep and stay up. Being a Dr Feelgood is probably very expected for the role.

WhiteOakBayou,

I liked his Netflix cartoon quite a bit. I agree he was the best part of old Rogan

WhiteOakBayou,

This is unpopular. I think it’s because no matter how poorly you are treated no one wants to deal with your pee

WhiteOakBayou,

Angel band or Angel son?

WhiteOakBayou,

Last guess is Precious Angel then I’m out of probable angel songs since it isn’t Angel Flying too Close to the Ground or Seven Spanish Angels

What do you use to track your reading?

Hello all! I mostly use StoryGraph (my name is creadstoomuch if you wanna be friends), but I was wondering what other options y’all have found that work for you. There are many things I like about it (the fact that it is not an Amazon product, the design, the stats, the currently reading tracking abilities) but there are also...

WhiteOakBayou,

I use storygraph as well but haven’t tried any of the social parts of the app. I mostly just like being able to keep track and see how many and what kind of books I’m reading. Bookwyrm is often recommended on mastodon.

WhiteOakBayou,

Can Musk be VP? Want he born in South Africa to South African parents?

WhiteOakBayou,

I’m sure this was labor retaliation or something but watching YouTube music eat google music and then steadily get worse. I don’t know. Fuck google and their lack of support. I don’t like Spotify particularly but now I use it because i really hated youtube music’s suggestion algorithm.

WhiteOakBayou,

Same same. I’m thinking of trying tidal next when my introductory pricing on Spotify ends. I tried just using other apps for Spotify that uses youtube but my family is addicted to voice control through the smart speakers.

WhiteOakBayou,

Whenever I say (OK google, play xxx radio) within twenty songs all the playlists end up being The Band or electroswing. Which are things I like but I’m trying to find novel music not stuff I already like

WhiteOakBayou,

Yeah play music looked good, it was easy to find full albums by genre, and their suggestion algorithm played stuff I liked but had never heard.

WhiteOakBayou,

Yeah that’s my thing exactly. I don’t think most people who start out with swisha house radio end up with rjd2 even though the genres are related. Maybe enough people only listen to songs they know they like to skew suggestions for people looking more for discovery than previously liked?

WhiteOakBayou,

I had never heard of those until now. 5 1/4 disk size with 230 mb sounds pretty sweet

WhiteOakBayou,

I use libby and have three cards. My county library, my city and a city I used to live in. Between those three I almost constantly have new books to read. I’ve read 19 book so far this year. All of them new release literary fiction and 16 of them through libby. With the right card it is really good. I went from dling 10 books a month to 1 a month so far this year.

WhiteOakBayou,

Pagers also work even in parts of the hospital that cell phones don’t for whatever reason. At least last time I had a hospital pager a few years ago. Now a lot of places use commercial solutions like vocera that also work everywhere and allow two way voice comms.

“When life gives you lemons, don’t make lemonade. Make life take the lemons back! Get mad! I don’t want your damn lemons, what the hell am I supposed to do with these? Demand to see life’s manager! Make life rue the day it thought it could give Cave Johnson lemons! Do you know who I am? I’m the man who’s gonna burn your house down! With the lemons! I’m gonna get my engineers to invent a combustible lemon that burns your house down!”

Quote for people who hate YouTube videos for a single paragraph of information.

WhiteOakBayou,

Generals gathered in their masses / just like witches at Black Masses

WhiteOakBayou,

I’m sure this is for a cadence sensor which is really nice to have for distance running

WhiteOakBayou,

Lots of people stepping out of the shower to downvote
