- Comment on YSK that treatments for back pain can cost thousands. But some of the best fixes are actually free 1 day ago:
There’s no such thing as “cracking back in place” there’s no studies showing long term benefits. It’s basically an expensive, poorly implemented massage.
You may not believe it, but you’re significantly better off with physical therapy and an actual massage.
I know a lot of people feel relief from a chiropractor visit, but it’s not helping long term, and it can permanently injure you in some rare cases.

- Comment on 'I had to RUN to my Mac mini like I was defusing a bomb': OpenClaw AI chose to 'speedrun' deleting Meta AI safety director's inbox due to a 'rookie error' 2 days ago:
I love how these models apologize like they mean it. It doesn’t mean it. It doesn’t feel bad, and it will do it again.
Apologies mean “I made a mistake and I learned from it so it won’t repeat.”
Sure it claims it added more notes to it’s config, but if it ignored the rules before, what makes you think that new rules are going to change anything?

I’d need a write up on the parallels. I’ve seen both several times and I can’t think of what they could be referencing.

Bullets yes, but primers are very dangerous to make. Gunpowder/smokeless powder is also somewhat dangerous.
- Comment on Movies characters always make it through the craziest plot and somehow not get forever traumatized by it. I wish I could be like that, but instead I stuggle to even make/keep therapy appointments. 6 days ago:
In the James Bond books, he’s pretty fucked up by the end. He completely acknowledges that he’s a broken soldier that’s always drunk and high.

FYI, you can still dedrm Amazon books. Even ones you buy today.
- Comment on How do I make a dog mean? Not that I want that but would kind of like for him to also be our protector much as his. I don't want to hit him or deprive him though he is just sometimes tooo nice. 1 week ago:
No, there’s no oversight for these kinds of trainiers, you’re way more likely to get someone who has no idea what they’re doing. This is way too dangerous to put this to chance.
On top of that, you have to work very hard to maintain that level of training.
Just teach your dog to be confident and well behaved, and they’ll know when it’s time to step in and protect you. Dogs do NOT need special training for this.

- Comment on If yours looks like this you better hope that you are in high school 1 week ago:
Anyone who’s been a college graduate with an above average job, a home, and a car, would probably have a negative net worth for quite a few years. It’s been that way since at least the 90’s.
- Comment on BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair 1 week ago:
Until you’re halfway through putting in new brake pads and realize you need a specialty bit and now you’re stuck without a working car until you get that Amazon package.
- Comment on BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair 1 week ago:
So when I’m working on my car, and find I need to find a specialty bit to undo a single screw, and they don’t sell it anywhere in town and I have to wait 2-3 days for shipping (or 2-3 weeks if I order from overseas) then it’s fine cause I shouldn’t be working on my car myself?
Is this a BMW bot?
What happened to the right to own and maintain my own property?
- Comment on Home renovations 1 week ago:
You’re confusing induction heating with resistant heating.
- Comment on BMW’s Newest “Innovation” is a Logo-Shaped Middle Finger to Right to Repair 1 week ago:
It’s not their right to decide if I get to work on my own property.
- Comment on MyMiniFactory has acquired Thingiverse 1 week ago:
No, that’s the problem. The algorithm is NOT good enough to determine if it is printable.
People assume this and upload tons of crap models.
- Comment on MyMiniFactory has acquired Thingiverse 1 week ago:
Nearly every 3d print that has an AI generated tag also has no actual pictures of a printed part.
I think people just AI generate, than assume it’s fine and post it, but never actually print it.
That’s why I keep the “no AI” filter on, really cleans up the junk posts.
- Comment on DoorDashers are getting paid to close Waymo's self-driving car doors 1 week ago:
If you leave it all the way open, the car just needs to drive a couple feet with decent acceleration to close it.
If you ALMOST close it, but not all the way, that would require some sort of intervention.

Many companies already have transitioned to mathematically proven quantum resistant encryption.
Sure, some old stuff will be vulnerable, but we’ve known the risk for a while and have already started preparation.

Keep your Synology and start hosting docker containers with open source replacements for the Synology branded ones.
That way the storage is still solid and maintenance free, but you can experiment with different options on top.

I liked this series. Dude is designing a bike in freecad and showing you how to follow along.
- Comment on Why doesn't my phone put all of my apps to "sleep" by default? 4 weeks ago:
Waking up an app costs processing power and time. If it’s an app you open regularly, like messaging, or a social app, then putting it to sleep and waking it up makes for an annoying user experience, and also wasted battery.
- Comment on Is history about to repeat itself? 4 weeks ago:
It’s half cause people aren’t used to it, and half cause there’s no infrastructure to keep the roads clear.
- Comment on Should speakers hum when they're connected to a stereo, but the volume of is turned all the way down? 1 month ago:
You can’t compare a $30 Amazon stereo to anything made before 1990. That would be equivalent to something costing $10-$15 back then, which wouldn’t have even existed.
There’s plenty of extremely high quality audio equipment that is made today, it just costs real money, just like it did back then.
Yes, for a lot of people, used gear would probably work fine, but it wouldn’t have the inputs they need (no HDMI, no Bluetooth, etc.) heck, a lot of folks would expect it to have WiFi to cast their Spotify music to it.
- Comment on Researchers turn spoiled milk into 3D printing materials — extracted proteins from dairy waste combined with polymers to create plastic alternative 1 month ago:
It’s almost impossible to find gas without at least 10% ethanol included here.
Some gas stations sell 85% ethanol, and other ratios, but it’s really the 10% mix that’s the bulk of the sales.
There are a few stations in my town that sell 0% ethanol gas, but they are increasingly rare.

FreshRSS has an API that can be called by different apps in the app store.
