Never tried it myself. I did provide clean urine to a friend, but I think their plan was just to wear it in/near their crotch long enough for it to warm up.

I’d imagine microwaving might work, as long as you didn’t do it too long. But, I don’t know if there’s some ions or proteins in urine that are more sensitive to microwaves than other heating methods.

Someone probably tried to heat “clean” urine to pass a drug test.

The war on drugs killed my convenience store burritos.

One executable updates the other and vice-versa. Like Robin Hood and Fryer Tuck defending one another.

That’s far from the only approach, too.

Yeah, inner work was my intention last time I tripped, but instead I ended up vegging out and getting annoyed at my trip mates. It was a waste of time and materials.

I don’t know if there will be a next time to try to do better.

I thought they had successfully converted around the time they got the infusion of funds from MS. I thought they were started as a not-for-profit, but were already shady-as-shit when they stopped publishing stuff under open licenses.

There are plenty of places where they don’t lie to you about PTO benefits, pay, and have some group insurance plan/program.

No. They use something called the “AT Protocol” and that’s about all I know about it.

I imagine some sort of compatibility layer could be designed, but I don’t know how much fidelity you could preserve.

Either is better than X/Twitter for now. Bluesky is “easier” for many people. I prefer Mastodon myself, but there’s a bridge so I can follow Bluesky profiles (and vice-versa) which is nice.

Agreed. Feet look clean and healthy, and if they were removed from shoes, I can guarantee they have less foreign matter on them then the shoes they were removed from, so I’d prefer them on the seat cushion rather than the shoes. If they were removed from shoes, they might be sweater and have more bodily products in general than the shoes they were removed from, but I doubt the seats on public transit are going to long avoid sweat and skin.

Some people’s insistence on covering all body parts at all times in public makes no sense to me.

I think you can have a POV without having a body, and you can “be somewhere” based on your POV rather than your body.

But, I also think that probably not the only reasonable guess at what the uploaded experience is like.

If it is possible for the mind to survive the death of the body, I also think uploading would be fine. It’s a risk to be sure, but not having a body would actually address a lot of my current disappointments.

If resurrection is possible, I’d like to think the death could be prevented. But, I’ll take it if uploading is not available and death of the body is still inevitable.

Any parts that can be used to improve a human life should be used that way. Then any parts that can be used to improve animal/plant life should be used that way. Then the rest should be disposed of in the manner that consumes the fewest resources.

But, I’ll be gone; you guys can do whatever with it; I won’t care.

That rate seems high. But, I have done post-mortems on a bad developer’s run at a company, and found they did very nearly nothing. No commits, no issues opened or closed, some comments, but that was almost their entire digital footprint.

Most developers I’ve worked with are obviously not doing nothing, though some of us (including myself) get stuck doing a lot of work on a project that never makes it into production due to shifting priorities.

II think it’s entirely possible the world is fucked. Climate crisis won’t come during his 2nd administration, but the 4 years we lose in national and international regulation is going to make it impossible to prevent.

It’ll be slow, but before 2061, I expect the death of the global Internet, and global shipping, and most air travel. Electrical grids will fracture or fail and the pieces used for smaller (at most regional) grid. Cities won’t be able to maintain the sewer pumps, and Cholera will start killing people again. Gas lines will stop maintaining pressure.

I don’t plan on sticking around that long. My BP has always been bad, so I figure just indulging my vices will make this no my problem, and I don’t have a partner or descendants.

If you prefer not embracing despair, I suggest looking into how you and your dearest can survive without infrastructure. Local food production, local power and medicine production. Don’t count on supplies you can’t retrieve within a day of travel, and don’t count on the state to maintain roads. “Solarpunk” might be a good search term. Also, might prepare for unpredictable shifts in the local climate, like preferring indoor growing.

If anyone has data that says we can avoid climate collapse with no new national or international regulation before 2029, I’d love to hear it. Please.

KFC / Pizza Hut / Taco Bell – the only restaurant you need!

I would have preferred Mr Mayo

At very least there’s an OCX for InteractiveHtmlView or some stuff. It’s how South Korean banks apps run. I think even the EU-specific “unbundled IE” versions still have that ActiveX / OLE control registered, though it might be crippled.

Although, he admits in the video to “faking” his footage of it working, by using a off-camera heat source. (His batteries were quite dead.)

But, as someone that lived through this time, they did work, as long as you pressed hard enough in the right places. It was hard to tell if the battery was dead or if you weren’t pressing hard enough

I like it, but I like most Mtn. Dew flavors.

Definitely inspired by peach tea, if that helps.

The whole reason I got on YT Premium was because it was free with Google Play Music. I have real issues watch non-Premiun now, because I’ve always disliked advertising methods. (Not so much th ads, which can be entertaining, but just being shown content I didn’t request instead of the content I did request.)
