Are you claiming this is not authentic Italian mechanical work?
- Comment on I choose hating your job in unconventional ways. 2 weeks ago:
Raos is good. Pretty consistently top rated. I basically thought all jarred pasta sauces were garbage before I tried it.
…it does always hurt a little when I splurge on a jar though. Also, Costco sells two packs of the 32oz jars for just a bit more than this and it goes on sale frequently.

Good luck eating Thai sticky rice with chopsticks though 😂

- Comment on Is giving only formula long term "healthy" for a baby? 2 weeks ago:
That’s because breastmilk has all the nutrients to strengthen immunity later in life for a child. There is a difference between breastmilk and powdered milk: since formula is composed of numerous chemicals (it’s made from compounds) while breastmilk is from the mother.
Nutrients are chemicals
- Comment on Why are flat earthers so badly harassed and ridiculed by globers? 4 weeks ago:
Because they’re idiots
- Comment on Is there any reason we were taught in school that blood is blue in the body until it reaches oxygen and then it turns red other than our veins look blue? 4 weeks ago:
I was definitely told this as a kid, but I don’t remember being taught it in school.
It’s completely possible a Latin teacher or a history teacher told me too but it wasn’t a part of the curriculum.
- Comment on I wonder what would people describe the feeling of wanting to piss, without directing saying it. 5 weeks ago:
Is “pressure on my bladder” too close to just saying it?
- Comment on Can some please explain to me why it is that your health insurance can deny you medication, even if your doctor says you need it? 5 weeks ago:
I just went through this battle myself. And my insurance even approved it, but I’m traveling overseas for two months and even though they tell me my benefit covers a “vacation override” they wouldn’t approve it.
I asked the pharmacy how much it would cost to pay out of pocket. $1300 for 4 weeks, so $2600 to cover my trip.
Luckily my Dr was able to give me “samples” to get me through my trip.
Also, another thing that I learned in the past year. What your insurance will cover and how much they’ll cover changes depending on your history.
Spend a three day weekend in the ER/ICU and suddenly I DO need Ozempic and they’re giving me thousands of dollars worth of CGMs for free.
It’s all a cost/benefit analysis for them.

U.S. politicians love Israel for their campaign contributions.
- Comment on Should this be the year we finally try voting for other candidates? 1 month ago:
Every election year is the year you should vote for “other candidates” in the primaries.
That is how you work to reshape a party you’re not happy with.
Luckily primary season is here now so go make your voice heard!

- Comment on if portals are invented, will I be able to eat out myself? 2 months ago:
I don’t see how it would be different in that regard than 69ing which I’ve always enjoyed giving and receiving of
Are you saying you’d be more focused on giving yourself pleasure than romantic partner?
- Comment on if portals are invented, will I be able to eat out myself? 2 months ago:
This makes no sense to me; please explain

- Comment on The more you learn about human biology and childbirths, the more you'd realize how shitty and inferior this form of existence is... 2 months ago:
Case in point — Some animals give live birth to pregnant daughters:
A typical life cycle involves flightless females giving live birth to female nymphs who may also be already pregnant, an adaptation scientists call telescoping generations—without the involvement of males.

I think you have a different body plan than me.
- Comment on People that go commando have pee and poo on their pants 3 months ago:
Not wearing underwear is unhygienic.
If you smell pee and poo, you’re inhaling pee and poo. Breathing is unhygienic.

- Comment on Is it wiser to store one savings in Gold as superior to the average bank/savings accounts nominal interest? 3 months ago:
This is going to depend a lot on where you are.
In Thailand for example, you’ll find there are a half dozen gold shops at every grocery store that will happily liquidate your gold at a moments notice a price determined by the current gold spot rate.
- Comment on Unifi Anonymous...? 3 months ago:
It’s been a year or two since I was looking into it and I didn’t have a NAS at the time, but another one of the issues I had was the tiny selection of cameras available. I tested some Aqara G2H Pros and the Logitech Circle View. The Aqaras I added local storage to and at least could get continuous recording, but event seeking is pretty terrible. The circle view was, despite very well built hardware, essentially useless. Keeping it connected to the network was basically impossible
I’m curious how writing to the NAS works. Is it just a bunch of files dumped to a network share or is there some sort of timeline viewing software available? Are they giant continuous files? Individual files for events? Without knowing the details it seems like it would be a nightmare to navigate and actually find useful information.
- Comment on at what point in life it's too late to go back to school? 3 months ago:
I last took classes at 36. Never got a degree though. I’d feel silly with where I am career-wise taking classes now, 11 years later.
