I was impatient so I jumped to 55 seconds, then you stole about still stole about 10 minutes of my day because I can’t understand why I found that so funny

Isn’t that the guy that got several people killed at his own show and didn’t give a fuck?

What does fein mean? Is it just shortened feign?
- Comment on Tub drain help 1 week ago:
I have so many old shitty drill heads laying around my first thought was hit the end of the flat head screw with a flat file then put a bit of jb weld on it into the head of the screw, if it doesn’t come out then, well it wasn’t going to come out.
- Comment on Chinese robots ran against humans in the world’s first humanoid half-marathon. They lost by a mile 2 weeks ago:
Strange competition as well. Let’s see a person outrun a car for 13 miles. There already Jaguars driving hundreds of thousands of miles more carefully than humans are. Why are we forcing them to be bipedal? Person in race vs a smart missile. Missile makes it to another continent before the person makes anywhere near that. Drones are flying around without need of human guidance. Computers are faster at just about everything and always will be. There’s a reason we make phone calls or emails instead of sending a letter.

I started using Cromite with OpenXNG as my search engine and it’s been good. A de-googled chromium essentially with built in privacy/ad blockers.

I remember reading about this one, able to fit in a small area and be moved, but never knew if it was thorium

Is this real? Pretty cool if they can actually stop the reaction with such
- Comment on NVIDIA to Manufacture American-Made AI Supercomputers in US for First Time. 3 weeks ago:
To do so for the first time in the US. Goes on to explain how the factories are already up and running producing units.
I also know there are other partners not listed in the article producing Nvidia based servers used for AI for Google, Meta, and others.
Source: I diagnose errors/issues for the assembled server racks and confirm they can pass stress tests and such. They are built on and assembly line in the same factory.

- Comment on Rocky rock rocking 5 weeks ago:
My first thought was it being an incorrect first line and my brain went “and I’m getting stoned.”
“She got a rock And I’m gettin’ stoned”
But then had that very programmed feeling of you shouldn’t say that because you aren’t getting stoned and you don’t want people to think of you as getting up and getting stoned on a Saturday morning. Talk about being programmed to fear what other people think.
Anyways Eric Church has a couple songs I liked
- Comment on What exercises should i do at the gym to correct winged scapula and rounded shoulders? 5 weeks ago:
Good luck out there, be kind and no matter what anyone else thinks I’m sure you’ll look good anywhere you go. Insert kindness is beautiful quote here haha
- Comment on What exercises should i do at the gym to correct winged scapula and rounded shoulders? 5 weeks ago:
Dumbledurp put a site above that lists exercises for various areas. Deltoids was one he mentioned for the back and deadlifts actually fell into that category. I know fuck all about what is healthy or not for the gym, but that site does appear to have information on there that could help point you in the right direction and then do some fact checking to make sure.
- Comment on Musk 'Pressured' Reddit CEO to Silence DOGE Critics, Leaving Moderators Outraged: Report. 5 weeks ago:
Nah, he wanted to modify what was being said. He blocked and oppressed views he didn’t like. It was never free speech. It was always oppression.

Haha, yeah I didn’t check that, was eating. 15 yards. I’m actually still sitting there.
- Comment on After 50 million miles, Waymos crash a lot less than human drivers 5 weeks ago:
How long ago was that? Last year I took a couple near Phoenix and they did great, lights or no. The hardest part was dropping me off at the front of a hotel, as people were in and out and cars were everywhere. Still didn’t have issues, just slowed down to 3mph when it had 15 years left or so
- Comment on I present my girlfriend's daughter. 5 weeks ago:
I do very often on Lemmy as well because I used to have trouble with the app I use (works great now) but when it first came out accidentally clicking the wrong button would sometimes crash it or knock me back to page before or my home feed. Then I’d realize I lost 2 paragraphs of text I typed and I’d say well fuck if it’s long enough that you don’t want to find that exact comment again to respond to and type it over, it probably wasn’t worth typing anyways. (Which unfortunately decreases interactions for users on the site, which ultimately hurts how many active users we end up with.).
Now I’m just making excuses for myself being feisty with my keyboard.
- Comment on I present my girlfriend's daughter. 5 weeks ago:
I can’t seem to learn this. I’m so used to being able to edit messages post sending them that I just use the send button as a save command. Type something. Ctrl S, go back and edit.
It’s dumb, but I still do it.
- Comment on The consequences (of my actions) have been extreme 5 weeks ago:
They hurt everyone else involved intentionally do to a sense of self richeousness. It’s a textbook definition of narcicism. It’s narcissistic for you and I to defend any of their actions as well. As you said. It’s narcissistic for us to think something is always someone else’s fault.
If someone calls the person they are going through a breakup with a self richeous dingbat who likes to tear down everyone around them in a private chat it’s not a nice thing to do. It also didn’t hurt that person until Derek brought it to their attention in an attempt to hurt the speaker while upsetting/hurting the person who was called names. Especially digging up things from years ago. These people aren’t running for office, they are kids dealing with life in a place of privacy. The number of people I’ve heard call soneone a little dicked asshole who isn’t good in bed is around 50. Never once would I think spreading that information to them or their friends group would be for the greater good. The person is hurt and lashing out. It’s often best to let them recover and sort out their own situation. If they were making plans to harm someone that’s another story, but that isn’t what happened here it appears.

Is the person who made the comments a narcissist, yes. Is the person who screen shorted it and shared it also a narcissist, absolutely.
- Comment on YSK that if you lose your Social Security Card (USA) more than 10 times, the Social Security Administration will have to, by law, refuse to issue anymore replacement cards, for the rest of your life. 5 weeks ago:
Got rained on when I went to a new job about 10 years ago, had it in my wallet so they could copy it for new hire bs. The colors bled and the blue stained other parts of the card. I never got it replaced but seriously, it isn’t even as durable as a dollar bill.

Where are you keeping your social security card that it keeps getting stolen? Is it in your wallet or in your house somewhere and your getting broken into a whole bunch?

- Comment on Is 33 cents a small amount of money? 1 month ago:
To be more specific the first 100,000 isn’t taxed at 28%. The 44 to 100k range would be, but below that will be taxed at lower percentages. The first ~10k you make is taxed at 10%, and then it increases throughout.
- Comment on does someone who lives very far away from me (for example 1900 miles) see the same night sky as me? (as in moon, stars, etc) 1 month ago:
Yeah it’s 7000+ km from Florida to London, yet they both can see the Sun at the same time. You can’t see every star the same, but much of the sky will overlap.

Is this a joke or did you just state these places exist without naming any?
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 1 month ago:
That’s great and all, but you do realize that in the end that ends up being pro large corporations and limiting freedoms of the people. Cities and towns would be best built that way I agree but the chances that we can completely revoke capitalism is verryyy slim. In such every convenient/grocery store in those neighborhoods would be bought up by money and reduce prices to run out small owners. People not being able to grow their own food or raise their own chickens reduces ones ability to feed themselves independently. Communal neighborhood farms are an alternative which I have seen before, but they are rare and require space as well
- Comment on Owing your home today is nearly impossible, but even if you did the ever increasing property taxes will bury you 1 month ago:
.25 acres? Can we up that to at least an acre. I need a place for my chickens to roam and to plant my gardens, and I prefer to have a fire pit with outdoor patio furniture and a grill. Many places an acre is the standard plot size.

- Comment on HELP! How do I help educate my son about his body when I know nothing about boys?? 2 months ago:
Yeah, people make stupid decisions no matter their gender, ideologies, or whatever else. I think one of the things I wish I would have learned more about at that age was the absence of structure. School is all very structured. Everything is about checking a box. Get this prerequisite, go to these classes. Be there at set times, get a set grade level and you will be fine. Get a certain score on the SAT/ACT or what not and you will be fine. Everything is almost definite. Once you leave high school/college there really isn’t any of that for your life unless you create it yourself. Get a job sure, within that job they will have structure. Nothing is telling people to check these 3 boxes and then move out of that job in 3 years and into the next step, as the steps no longer exist and staying in a single job is unlikely to land you where you need to be successful. Loyalty to a woman company doesn’t mean you will get raises or promotions. I wish I would have spent more time creating the maps and goals I want to achieve outside of the structure given to me, and work on achieving those goals and creating timelines they need to be done by. A certificate to move up/diagonal in my field, map it out and when and where you want to throw those 100 resumes out too and hope one of them will come back. Then already be working on other structured steps curated for my life aspirations.
I procrastinate on many of those things, because there are no due dates. It’s go to work, work, make dinner, clean, mow lawn, take care of chickens, blah blah blah to get to the next day week year, but then you never get around to improving yourself because I never set required boxes for me to check.
