The Sutter Bypass and Yolo Bypass in California are examples of prescribed/controlled flooding infrastructure. When the Sacramento River is about to overflow its banks, the bulk of the flow spreads out into the bypasses, keeping the river level low and flooding agricultural areas rather than urban areas.


Resentment is a poison pill you swallow, with the hope that it harms your enemy.


Let me check what’s your IP?


Natural stone. Sintered stone (often sold as “porcelain”). Micro cement. There are alternatives.


There’s about 20-40 death sentences per year in the state, but they rarely get carried out. This was the accumulation of many decades worth of death sentences.


Consciousness requires free will. When the computer is emailing experts to fill in the gaps in its own understanding, that may be viewed as consciousness.


You could move to a new city. You could build a community cistern that captures rainwater for you and your neighbors. You could treat your tap water. You could find the nearest spring where you fill up carboys of drinking water.


Order the cheapest fast food, but, double the price to deliver it? Maybe just go to the nearest diner and try their burger and fries.


Proxmox web UI to manage my six containers. Sometimes I use sftp (ssh) to modify files in a desktop editor instead of nano over a web interface. Recently I broke things and had to go down to the basement with a keyboard and monitor to rollback my Omada container. I kinda want to make that part easier but it’s so infrequent it’s probably not worth it.


Skipping steps is faster. The height and distance energy burn is roughly the same whether you walk up normally, backwards, skipping steps, or crawling (within reason). However your baseline metabolism is constant, so the faster method burns fewer calories.
Let’s say you were walking up stairs for 10 miles. That’s about 40,000 stairs. I would estimate that would take about 10 hours to do. But skipping steps you’d be done in maybe 6 hours. So in either case the stairs burn say 5000 calories. But going slower you have like 1000 calories of baseline metabolic burn, and skipping steps only 600. So skipping steps might be about 7% more efficient overall.


I don’t like being screamed at by a computer voice/speaker. I can read. I would do it more often if it was silent like at IKEA. Also at Whole Foods I usually have one of their 50% today only deals which requires a cashier. And it’s stupid you can’t buy beer. Basically I only use self checkout as a last resort, or if I have like 2 or 3 items.


Record warm ocean water brings with it warm water sea life.


Wow not only did you read my brain rot comment, but you commented on it in a style almost like a parody. Big brain move bro!


All of the problems are really only one problem: greed. Therefore the fix is relatively straightforward: identify the egregious hoarders and reallocate their assets. Let me know when you have a list together, we’ll start the revolution.


It’s not inevitable to go to depression. I can tell you this first hand. Anger is however a severe side effect of some anti-psychotic drugs they often use to help manic patients sleep.


They should have picked an appropriate theme song:
Every breath you take, every move you make, I’ll be watching you


Mania is no joke. The big book calls it “feelings of grandeur”, but it very often feels more like oneness and pure love for everything and everyone. There’s no medical explanation for it but it can be rationally described as the Christ consciousness. Where else could such abundant unconditional love come from? There isn’t a medical explanation for love.
Its sad that our society is so triggered and frightened by this state that we feel the need to medicate it and lock it up. This guy turned to Chat GPT not as a first choice but as a last resort. We have a suicide prevention hotline because they don’t want to lose valuable workers, but they don’t have an unconditional love support line. Medicate yourself and get back to work, loser. Your infinite love is a delusion. Maybe but it feels fucking amazing.
In 2002, I was taking a computer programming class at community college. The teacher recommended a floppy disk since we’re just saving text files, but I got a 64 MB drive and loved it right away.
