I’m from Iceland and this pretty much checks out. Pro tip, renting a cabin with a hot tub on days with good conditions is really good. Also travel with people who smoke so they go out and check on a regular basis.

For anyone considering running a marathon then they should know it’s easy to train for it. Elite runners train with 80% of their weekly distance as easy and going 100% on that is totally ok.

So going out there, running at a comfortable/enjoyable pace is all you need as long as you’re consistent. It’s literally that easy. Increase weekly distance by 10% a week and do a long session ideally once per week. Long distances should also follow a 10% per week max increase to avoid injury.

So basically, you end up chilling, listening to podcasts and plodding along for a year and you end up being ready for a marathon.

One quick side note: If something feels weird in any of your tendons, just chill and take some days off and do quick warm ups before running.

Also, they always play until checkmate. If there are two geniuses playing chess one of them would resign at least 3 moves before reaching checkmate.

I remember one game having the replacement mag taped to the current so it was an easy out flip in every time.

Would still watch

I think this is it. Posting is reinforced by getting feedback on posts, both up votes and comments

I mean, it’s kinda true. A rocket just makes fire which expands and pushes whatever it burns out to make it go fast. You got the fire, the fire pushes things away from whatever you’re burning and the rest is just optimisation.

If you manage to make a helium balloon that floats in the air, attach a burning log fire to the bottom of it and enclose it in a way that the air intake is on the top and outlet is on the bottom you’ve made an engine that you just need to aim with a ballast weight.

Still wrong, but you were onto something.

I feel like I’ll be prepared later on but I’m fully expecting to not be ready when the time comes.

I’m an autistic male and for me expressing myself in general is a bit awkward. During tough times I really liked expressing it to my friends and siblings since it’s a decent way to process the feelings.

nzb360 that I got a perpetual license for at 10eur. It’s so easy and convenient to torrent stuff for my Jellyfin.

Niagara launcher is free but I paid for the perpetual license. It’s a third party launcher that I really like.

I’m also a Jetbrains fan depending on the language, they have so much support for everything just out of the box and are on Linux.

Also games, but I guess people don’t want to hear those here. Factorio was definitely worth.

I’m really bad at spending stuff on myself also. I like prioritising paying back loans, buying stock and so on since it pays itself back later on.

The way I look at it is that the less I spend on luxuries the less I have to work (currently and in retirement) so I don’t feel weird about it.

Another rule of thumb is to delay purchases by 3 months and it doesn’t set back your financial goals. If you’ve been wanting this Macbook now for 3 months and you have the money for it and you feel comfortable with your current financial situation I’d tell you to get it. If it’s an expensive car it’s a financial catastrophy usually so don’t get it even if you’ve wanted it for 3 months.

No idea if that helps but don’t feel weird about being frugal. Frugality is incredibly useful and can set you up for an easy life.

Not sure why you said that. In programming I lean DRY unless it’s a separate use case. The repetitions come from the hundreds of left pad implementations in node_modules

I should learn C because of Unga Bunga reasons. I fully agree that lower RAM usage is better and cache misses are absolute performance killers but at the company I’m at there’s just no time or people or scale to do anything remotely close to that. We just lazy load and allow things to slowly cost more RAM while keeping the experience nice.

“Mature ecosystem” it’s called in JS land.

I wish nodejs or ecmascript would have just done the Go thing and included a legit standard library.

As a programmer myself I don’t care about RAM usage, just startup time. If it takes 10s to load 150MB into memory it’s a good case for putting in the work to reduce the RAM bloat.

Can’t ban chemtrails but you can reduce contrails which play a weirdly large part in warming up the planet irrespective of fuel consumed.

Just putting the word out for an underrated climate thingy.

Coffee and beer, my two favorite drinks

Yeah Adobe just doesn’t play ball with Linux but there are people that have used it successfully on Linux though.

Yeah, I love reading these and I’ve been using Linux for 8 years. I recommend Linux regularly and I want to know enough about new people’s experiences to know what questions to ask.

Do you use Photoshop? Do you have modern hardware or fancy monitor? What GPU?

Good thing we can all boot up TempleOS and find the answers we seek. 🙏

I see, it’s about flying under the radar if you’re up to something illegal. That makes a lot of sense for something like having weed in the car.
