  Or when Scout explains his date plan to Spy.

  Spy: you have a dinner date for 7. What time do you arrive? Scout: 7… AM. Case the restaurant, run background checks on the staff. Can the cook be trusted? If not I’ve gotta kill him. Dispose of the body, replace him with my own guy no later than 4:30.

  Quit your current life and move to a country where they speak the language you want to learn. Get a menial job in a small town, find new friends, and learn what love is. Then you’ll know what it truly means to speak a language.

  Or a different definition of “problem”.

  Things won’t make people happy, happiness comes from within. People with financial resources can afford to spend a lot of time running from that truth.

  Bullshit.

  I don’t think dogs are that judgmental.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What are the best options for computers that explicitly support linux operating systems?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I know people are going to hate me for saying this, but based on your stated priorities recommend getting a MacBook Air or MacBook Pro. As much as I love ricing Linux and playing games, I use my MacBook Air for 90% of all my computing and coding. MacOS provides the most polished user experience out of the box (although it’s going down hill with every update they push). And once MacOS hits the enshittification event horizon you can switch to Asahi.

  I suggest at least going to an Apple Store and dicking around with a display model to get a feel for the UX.

  I’d say the biggest problem with AI is that it’s being treated as a tool to displace workers, but there is no system in place to make sure that that “value” (I’m not convinced commercial AI has done anything valuable) created by AI is redistributed to the workers that it has displaced.

  I assume that when they die they’ll wake up from their wizard coma and it will coincide with some sort of cool plot point. Maybe his wizard body gets kissed by a frog or something.

  Because you’re more grounded.

  Without appropriate structure will we be able to effectively communicate ideas?

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Did rap become more popular in asia in recent years?⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Hip hop has influenced Japanese culture to some degree. Samurai Champloo (released in 2004) is the most hip hop influenced anime I can think of, with Shing02 (born in 1975) being the Japanese rapper I’m most familiar with.

  Street Fighter 3 3rd Strike (1999) had a hip hop influenced style.

  Whether or not rap is “more popular” now can probably be answered by doing some research. www.billboard.com/charts/japan-hot-100/
