Yes, I can hear them. Usually it’s not a problem but I have had 1-2 power adapters that annoyed me.

He has a good point. Specifying precisely what the program does is the actual difficult part and won’t be done properly by this current LLM system since it’s creating something new and requires actual thought and understanding.

I knew a 3/4 deaf girl who had learned ASL, who had a bf who was fully deaf from birth… he did send her videos of himself signing.

Reddit claims they didn’t and don’t have to.

Yep, the first one was by Denver University over by University and Evans. The founder states he was inspired by big ass burritos from the Mission district in California. For some reason he rejected the local Denver mex food which is more like New Mexican.

I swear a fair bit but sometimes I feel like it’s a cop-out… a lazy way to add emphasis, and if I think for a minute I can usually find more specific and expressive words.

That makes sense.

I’ve seen that for words that are considered to be ‘triggers’, as if saying ‘r@pe’ is somehow different at all than just using the normal vowel.

It’s definitely unhealthy how American society thinks that you have to suppress the natural ability to sweat to be acceptable to others.

Yep, I have some sensitivity to fragrances and perfumes and unfortunately, people who use standard shampoo, conditioner, deodorant, laundry soap and dryer sheets smell horrible to me, sometimes from 5 feet away or just being in the same room. Some shampoo is so strong that I can smell it just from them having been in the same room 3 minutes ago. It’s unfortunate that sometimes, it’s people who think they’re being civilized and responsible, while in fact their scented stuff is causing problems that won’t exist otherwise. It’s actually harder to find products that don’t do this, though, as the standard American mainstream brand ones are all awful as far as fragrances go (Pantene, pert, suave, Gain, Tide, Bounce, Snuggle etc).

Antiperspirant is one thing. Very few people use one without a fragrance though. I would rather smell basically any normal body odor over awful perfume crap, personally.

There is chatroulette.

We grew up with the story of Rikki-Tikki Tembo No Sa Rembo Charibariruchi Pip-Peripembo.

There was also this article recently about a Spanish Duke who was told he can’t give his daughter 25 names:

if he somehow turned it into a legitimized escort service, that would be actually useful to society, other than that he would be the one running it so it would be corrupt af and detrimental to society.

it’s every app in existence!! That means it will be worth every other app x 10!!

I found some jicama sliced thin like a corn tortilla at Trader Joe’s. They’re surprisingly good for many things. They’d be an awesome basis for a canapé.

Seems more like an attention issue than illiteracy.

I’m a big fan of certain cabbage like napa. Also cole slaw with purple cabbage is pretty great.
