Oh my gosh do you remember the name of a show they had in roughly 05-10i era that was just featuring prototypes for future technology?

I remember it featuring robotic exoskeleton, something that I’m pretty sure was Kevlar or at least functions very similarly, a sidewalk that can generate power from people walking on it. I even think it featured an “invisibility cloak” so basically a mix of practicality and stages of development. It was fun. I feel like there were a lot of shows about futuristic stuff then on those channels (discovery package basically if u know u know) right before reality suffocated it. And I can’t find anything about them and they aren’t ever mentioned.

Thank you!

I have zero context this graph is confusing af but also says so much

I just don’t know how to translate it lul

…and then your friend and family don’t care about those either 🙃

gestures to everything else I mean… we are fucking drowning in situations to care about.

Yeah I don’t think it is actually going to be particularly intrusive visually. It is based on data on games you play and stuff so one could argue that is intrusive. It’s 6 months from now as they start getting more bold and greedy. The ads will get worse, they always do.

I’m the weirdo who always reads the privacy policy at the bare minimum. I’ve opted out of a lot of services/apps/games/sites because of their privacy policy over the years.

Look it is bullshit they can get away with this crap but right now we only have the existing outdated legislation to work with. The absolute explosion of how technology and social media impacts the world has changed RAPIDLY in the last 15 years. It was once quaint that Obama did reddit AMA or posted a tweet.

So my point is yes be mad but ultimately it is out responsibility to be proactive with the tools that we have, and that’s privacy policies and ToS. Like you’re skipping through the villain’s monologe laying out every step of their evil plan then shocked at the consequences.

This is true.

What I also gathered from the article (for further context) is that these are the same lawyers who tried to the other 2 cases of piracy on reddit. This time the argument is that it is not a violation of the first amendment right because they want the data to go after the ISP

You don’t have to suffer abuse just because they are your parents. I would hope that if they were in their right mind they wouldn’t want you to either.

Have a support system, if you have siblings do your best to share the load of responsibilities somehow. If you can, get some sort of professional care to help. Take any government assistance available to you or your parents.

Ah okay thank you! I haven’t noticed a change but I think I had a gap between childhood and adulthood where I didn’t have it when it changed. And when I started eating it again it was only the thick and creamy cuz the regular was so runny.

Lol I relate to your love of a comfort garbage Mac and cheese AND unhealthy consumption of it.

Curious how long ago it was and if you ever tried the kraft thick and creamy? I don’t really eat much of it anymore but we always have that on hand for in case we want a frozen chicken strips + side kinda lazy night.

Use a tool. Handle of butter knife, bottle opener. Anything sturdier than a finger those litter boxes are made out of something that masquerades as cardboard, don’t believe those lies!

Be careful though, caffeine takes 12 hours for your body to process. If you have sleep trouble it is likely to impact your quality of sleep even if you feel like caffeine doesn’t affect you.

Do you ever forget to refill it? Like what about if you take middle of day, and you’re not home? That’s why I haven’t bought one yet (and tbh my alarm has been good, I almost always listen to it lol)

And I’ve seen some cute ones! Like look like citrus fruit slices

Aw thank you! Yup totally worthless if you don’t obey the alarm lol. I have totally dumped and counted pills before

I haven’t been fully tested but my doctor agrees it is likely I have ADHD and this is all new to me, grain of salt.

I definitely do things without thinking. Drinking, snacking, vaping, reaching for phone just because my hands need to be busy. Mindless stuff.

As for what I think most neurotypical people consider habits I have maybe one that is somewhat automatic for me and that is I ALWAYS do my skincare and teeth before bed. But part of that is because that routine is really good sleep hygiene. Like it is still a decision, still a bit of a chore, but it would feel VERY wrong and off if I didn’t do it.

Then um let’s see I’ve been taking the same medication at the same time for over 15 years now and I still need an alarm on my phone and I have still forgotten to take it if I don’t take it that very second. At least most of the time later in the day I suddenly remember…

Thank you! Idk why I never thought to do that before lol

I never could get into it. I type like it’s a keyboard I actually don’t even look at the keyboard I am looking at the input field and glancing down if I have to. Swipe sucks for me and is way less accurate than my method and I actually have to focus on the keyboard just to have worse WPM. I also get pissed off cuz if my hands are at all wet the typing tries to swipe.

P.s. it’s hilarious to me that this long existing android feature is treated like some unique cool thing when Apple finally adopts it 10 years later. Like wireless and fast charging. But yeah I’m lame cuz I have a green bubble and don’t use stupid personalized emoji thing

While that’s true for over the counter migraine meds which are usually just an NSAID or Tylenol with caffeine, I suspect OP is referring to the preventative RX medication you take every single day and takes a long time (months, irrc) to see if it has any improvement. Which is why it’s interesting that it helps! I wonder if that’s a known benefit.

Also OP hope it helps with your migraines too! They are horrific. And if you’re able and need a rescue/acute med when you do have please talk to doctor about if triptans would work for you. Not recommended for people with Aura headaches or on SSRIs but they work great if you can take them.
