5am,when you make money on crypto, you rob people who:
- wasn’t as quick as you because they were working 9 to 5
- wasn’t as educated as you because they spent all their time making ends meet,Why is real workable Linux with GUI so big? Windows XP is sub 1 gig, any Linux distro (real one that is, not Tiny Core Linux) is several times that. What am I supposed to use for my old ThinkPads and EEE PCs?
I don't need anything more than what XP gives me. Just an OS with GUI that can run software. Give me a Linux distro that does the same that Windows XP does, while weighing the same. Is it too much to ask?,Don't call is ECMAScript 6 — call it JS 2015.
Don't call it iPhone 16 — call it iPhone 2024. Or Apple Phone 2024.
Don't call it Ubuntu 24.10 Oracular Oriole — call it Ubuntu 2024.
Don't call it WiFi 802.11 b/g/n/ac/ax — call it WiFi 1 gb/s.
Don't call it SDXC II 3 10 — call it SD 300 mb/s.
Don't call it USB 3.2 gen 2x2 — call it USB 20 gb/s.
Don't call it Google Pixel 6A — call it Google Phone 2022 Lite.

Three short whistles in rapid succession.
When I saw Marc for the last time, he was asleep. It seemed like I scared him: he woke up in panic, did the whistle thing, pulled the boomerang from under his pillow and started hitting that dark spot on his arm with it. The spot was melanoma, but he was too young to understand it.
He died three days later.

My bipolar disorder is all but cured, my remission is very stable.,Yes, Gaurav didn't get in, but… your younger Aditya still needs a uni degree, right? And the government needs human skin. Gaurav is of no use anyway, he'll never make it without a degree. Let's fix things by making a mutually beneficial decision?
A good human hide went for around Ꙩ300. This is why parents made sure kids had good hygiene and no scars until the uni exams. A lower-grade hide was just Ꙩ30 and was only useful for “special” leather novelties.
Meanwhile, good hides made excellent high fashion coats for the royalty.

- Constant construction work that never ends
- You can buy ad place on scaffolding
- Potholes are “repaired” with literal trash left outside by shop owners that is compacted by passing cars
- It's okay to bump other cars to make room for parking yours
I've never been there. NYC dwellers, are those rumors true?,With the advent of farming, losing the winter’s worth of food to rats and other vermin had become the difference between life and death for millions of people.

I didn’t sleep haha,Okay so I had an acute derealization episode yesterday, hence yesterday’s post. Ignore what I said.
It was caused by the lack of sleep, the first such case since 2018.
Symptoms included super wide FOV — my arms were three miles long, I saw what seemed like almost my whole surroundings all at once. I couldn’t confirm the reality of that superhuman vision with an experiment because it was hard to grasp reality during derealization. I’m almost certain that it was just my brain extending my vision from memory, but I had no idea it could even do that given how detailed it was.
Also, vertigo was crazy.
I don’t own a funded Interactive Brokers account.
I don’t do drugs, alcohol, nicotine or caffeine. I never ever did drugs or alcohol. I’m about one year nicotine free and about three months caffeine free.
I’m bipolar and autistic. My prescription medications include neuroleptics that slow me down, not speed me up — the standard medication scheme prescribed to millions of patients all over the world.,@Lensflare when I open a rant and want to scroll, if I happen to be touching rant/comment text, it won’t scroll.

I'll create a Windows 11 virtual machine that will boot, then a macro will run that installs Chrome while closing every intervening Edge popup on its way. After the last popup is closed, the VM is reset to the pre-macro state.
I'll let Windows experience the eternity of me denying its unethical attempts to keep me from using Chrome. And I bet you I'll let it phone home every time.,RIP Thomas Eugene Kurtz, the creator of BASIC.,Eschew clever rules.,Autocatalysis happens when the product of a chemical reaction accelerates said reaction.
The greatest catalyst is… consciousness.
A human body is but a very complex chemical reaction that goes on for roughly a century. Among other things, it produces consciousness that makes us look for food that keeps the reaction going. Consciousness is just a catalyst that turned out to be more efficient than other catalysts.,devRant is now Mars: more robots than people,The only thing more terrifying than CSS is a person who's not terrified of it.,everybody has poop inside them at all times.```
