I’m actually quite interested in dress history. I’m an engineer at heart and clothing is fundamentally also an engineering problem (and design of course). It’s an area of engineering that was always dominated by women and you can sometimes see the novel approaches that brings.

For example historical corsets were actually quite comfortable when fitted right. One reason why is actually breast support. Predecessors to the modern Bra did exist but were not in fashion as a more compressed looking bust and later a shaped silhouette was in fashion.

Also it’s cool what tricks one can use to form the silhouette without extremely compressing the waist (which is how many modern people often think is the function of a corset).

I recommend Bernadettes channel on this topic: link

Source on that? As far as I know China stopped importing plastic waste as they realized it was too expensive for the state as they are burdened with the externalities, i.e. cleanup.

Do yourself the favor and upgrade to mpv

Treating it like being sick (like a cold) helps me. That way I justify taking it slow. It’s something that will pass and it’s totally normal to feel really bad. It will probably be better soon but I need a lot of rest/self-care.

We are the Pinnacle of creation! Nothing can be better than us by definition! Even the thought that a mere complex computer can be a person is heresy and absurd and can only be answered by ridicule and mockery. /s

Unfortunately a lot of professional philosophers think a bit like the above :(

For the record I did not down vote but I can see how people dislike this kind of over enthusiasm for drugs still in trial. Many people got burned before by false hope :(

It isn’t?! I was sure it’s engineer girl

Flying is still the safest mode of travel.

Funny Gentoo actually was my gateway to arch. Loved the customizability of Gentoo and the rolling release model.

But building Chrome and Firefox (I needed both for work reasons sometimes) every update was the nail in the coffin. Switched to Arch and didn’t miss a thing.

Please use parenthesis to avoid ambiguity. N/1/2 could also mean N/2…

(Also I think you made a typo “2N/2” should be “2N/1”)

Aren’t both choices technically apex predators?

Because people that don’t care about privacy find this to be a nice feature.

There are gallery apps that let’s you sort by location and it’s nice if you want to search for the cool thing you saw once again.

Did you talk to them about how it makes you feel? I would suggest doing that with the caviate that you should stay with your feelings and not be accusatory. Even though I know it is hard to do.

That’s just insecure communication. Nothing to do with beeing introverted.

In most situations it’s easier to clearly and honestly communicate ones needs. People that take offense to confident and honest communication should be avoided anyway.

Fair enough

What has your sanity ever done for you?!

Someone is putting a lot of work into including/inviting you.

Yea my first respond would also totally be: “Fuck that person in particular” /s

Problem is iirc that the blocky aesthetic is less safe for pedestrians…
