Soon we will have to battle the dolphins to hold or place

How much thinking is overthinking?

And do you mean how often do I overthink, or are you asking to what extent do I overthink?

I just wish the rate of false negatives wasn't so bad. I feel like false negatives have gotten worse too. I've had textbook modern covid for two weeks, and now I'm better, but the cough wo,t go away. Never tested positive, but alternative diagnosis seems unlikely.

Already likely to be untrue, but honestly I'd happily sign up for a world wear "hold music" isn't the same 20sec loop of shit jazz

We're they arrested for working unapproved overtime?

I say high tides raise all boats.

As a straight cis male, I still remember the day, at 19 years old, that a person I trusted told me I dressed like a clown.

It was devastating and changed my life for the better.

In a long dumb story I once went to jail over a speeding ticket that was a day late.

The two cops couldn't believe they had to arrest me for it and the jail was so backed up I was there for four days.

I was still a teenager and terrified, but I put on a face and told every joke I'd ever heard to get by. My last morning there My bunkmate found me so entertaining he offered me a free prostitute, which I had to very politely decline.

I also use Raindrop for general bookmarking! It's not open source ir anything, but it's free option is excellent and I think they still have a standard export option 👍

Still trying to catch back up on Adventure Time

I wish I remembered the details, but I read a couple years ago about new batteries using the same sort of principal.

It was being studied as a way to handle a specific part of radioactive byproduct from nuclear power.

You sandwich the tiny radioactive bit in materials to generate a charge, and the whole thing is encased in conductive man-made diamond.

A battery the size of a half dollar coin could generate roughly a watt of power for, ostensibly, up to hundreds of years.

The big seller beyond its lifespan is that the diamond is dense enough to shield the tiny amount of radiation inside.

Incredible potential that probably wont be realized in consumer goods for decades. Just think about never having to change the battery in a remote ever again. Or even a lot of wireless smart home sensors and devices.

A shocking amount of things take very little power. Air tags that never die. E-book readers. You could make super dim puck LEDs that are always on and can go anywhere for illuminating pathways.

You could never scale it much in size/output because the diamond encasing would become disproportionately heavy and expensive, but for anything 1.5 Watts and less, and possibly up to 3 Watts or so, could be totally feasible.

Grandma can eat shit. Every job now expects you to do the work of 3-4 jobs from Grandma's time.

You also have to do that work while being constantly monitored and recorded in most office environments, even if you work from home.

Just because physical labor jobs have more technology doesn't mean people are working less hard. Everybody is busting ass trying to make half of what Grandma made.

Get outta here with that shit, Grandma

The sooner you can tell your kids God's not real, the better. Just make sure you tell them it's not their job to explain that to their peers.

Unless you meant Santa. In which case the same applies.
