Seat is down if thenlid is down. But whatever works for you and your wife!

That makes no sense to me tbh. If you are trained to keep the lid down, you are alerted immediately that something is off if the seat is up - you clearly see into the toilet and see that someone forgot to put it down.
If you are trained to only have the seat down and lid up, then the change between seat up and down is not significant enough to notice and stop muscle memory to sit and fall in.
Maybe I’m not understanding you but lid down is a foolproof way to not fall in from my perspective. My wife converted to the lid down way and doesn’t complain

That, and leaving the toilet seat up
Toilet seat belongs down - and the lid with it! It’s not only logical, but also just.

You are asking if it could be same experience as an MMO-lite without being online. Think about it.
Core gameplay will stay, yes. And sounds like they changed quite a bit. But if you were promissed an MMO-lite and are getting a single player game…
I hope that it is notnthe exact same game but offline, because it will not hold up. There are different expectations from a MMO and single player game.
- Comment on Announcing Wayfinder Echoes - Forging Our Own Path (online-only game soon to be playable offline) 1 day ago:
Well the MMO aspects. It is now single player game with optional co-op.
Nothing against single payer games. I just love me some MMO/MMO lite games.

Whelp. The MMO lite aspects are what made me interested.
- Comment on If somebody spends the whole day watching fox or religious propaganda, gets worked up and all he can think of is owning a liberal or converting an unbeliever, is this person a victim or just gullible? 1 week ago:
Maybe I’m missing some nuanceof the word but if they believe the stuff because they are gullible… isn’t that what makes them the victim?

This is by far the most frustrating thing
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 week ago:
I’d not see it as judgemental, just trying to inform. These days meatcis just a commodity, completely disasociated from the animals it comes from and without second thougt on how those animals are treated. If I go into detail like this, it’s really just to get the info out there in a casual way. The person in question might ignore it, or may think about it. I also needed nudges like this to realize the moral issue and I’m happy for every one of them. I don’t really go into detail much, and rarely inform someone about my preferences. But will answer truthfuly when asked
If someone chooses to ignore ot just not see the suffering behind eating meat in this day and age, it is frustrating though to say the least. Especially if simply reducing the meat intake and being more selective about the source of the meat comes a long way. But I get why it is so tough, as I’m not a saint myself and while I reduce meat most of the time, I still have some occasionally even if I feel bad about it.
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 week ago:
“meat’s another word for dick and eating dick is gay”. As problematic as it was, it worked.
It’s both sad and hillarious that this worked. I wonder if you created a new vegetarian as well

- Comment on What is Windows 11 'AI Explorer'? Everything you need to know about Microsoft's upcoming defining AI PC feature (including it always watching you) 2 weeks ago:
If I’m reading this correctly this tuns locally and will requirean NPU, so would not be present or working without AI dedicated hardware?
It honestly sounds useful and would be a little excited to use, but I imagine Microsoft will collect the data in some way (I doubt all the info the AI collects will be actually stored locally?) which would be bad as it pretty much records your screen all the time.
Hopefuly one day there will be a point when a similar software will be developed that runs 100% locally, storing the data locally and have no internet connectivity and just be a useful tool.
Good news is that unless you have Qualcomm CPU (or one with integrated NPU in the long run) you are safe from it for now

- Comment on AI Generated Videos Just Changed Forever (OpenAI Sora) 2 months ago:
Obviously people will need to be working still, a time when all work is done for us is long way off. Besides, there were studies made on this and most people would still work in some capacity (not all, obviously) - but with you getting money to cover your needs you could quit thenjob you just have for the money and do something you enjoy. Or keep the job you do just for money if lots of money is important to you - but you would be free to take sabatical if you’d start burning out without fear - because you would still have the UBI even if you spent all your money and didn’t save any.
Especially now with raise of AI this is something that will be needed sooner rather than later - question is when, not if. And another question is how will humanity fuck it up - because that’s what wedo best and the theory behind it sounds too good to be true.

The idea behind universal basic income is that hpu get enough money to cover your basic needs - then you can do a job you like to earn more so that you have more than basic needs fulfilled. So you could still earn money if that’s what you so enjoy.

Imaginary [something] was a naming convention for different subredits with art depicting [something].
May have origins elsewhere but I’m personally familiar with it from Reddit
- Comment on Beer and Wine are vegan drinks. 2 months ago:
Vegan food being a joke is also a misconception. Vegan stuff can be pretty fucking delicious, but it’s more dependent on you flavoring it correctly.
If you fuck up non-vegan food, there is a good chance is it is still alright. If you fuck up vegan food, there is a good chance it’s not great.
But properly prepared it can be so awesome.

Fair. It’s not foolproof like that. All networks are not created equal and also different people may have different thresholds for noticing

I use one and it’s pretty smooth. Depends on the connection though. Definitely needs wired connection.
