Not The Onion@lemmy.world•Mark Zuckerberg gifted noise-canceling headphones to his Palo Alto neighbors because of the non-stop construction around his 11 homesEnglish
3·20 days agoNot trying to fight, just confused. My wife and I were in a 1800sqft townhome later on and that was like the minimum in our minds.

304·20 days agoDid you mean 2200? I had a 1200sqft apartment before and that definitely couldn’t fit a family

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Have you ever tried to "acquire" a taste? (Ie. spent time eating/imbibing something you didn't like at first to start to enjoy it.)
2·20 days agoI don’t have the soap gene, but have the same issues with artificial sweeteners. I don’t understand how anyone can be fooled by them, they taste horrible.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•So apparently full stops in texts are 'passive agressive' now. What other unwritten rules for texting have changed over the last couple of decades?
1·24 days agoBecause it can signal annoyance? It’s almost like having more possible meanings adds depth to conversation. The end of a text is already final enough, so a period doesn’t add any functionality that way unless you somehow believe someone got raptured mid sentence and still hit send.
It’s like if you asked someone, “How are you?” And they said “I’m fine” or “I’m fine.” or “I’m fine!” or “I’m fine?” or “I’m fine…”
It signals different connotations and tones for all five. Period is no longer default since they aren’t required, so they have taken on additional meaning
To answer around the question, I’d say the best way to give this gift is to work with them to get you set up! They might already have a favorite distro they want you to try, and working through it both together is a great way to spend time together.
Are there really people who mix up impulses and intrusive thoughts?
I always love explaining to people that when I handle kitchen knives a small part of me is like “Slit your fucking neck and stab everyone you know! You can do it with that knife you got!” I’ve gotten over the horror of it but it took me years to comprehend that it’s not normal.

Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Older people (30+) online, what would you advise younger generations in regards to life?
10·1 month agoDon’t compare yourself to others, compare yourself to your own past performance.
Neither of these are right. X is forward, Y is to the right and Z is down.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How does trash collection/recycling work where you live, and do you like the system?
7·2 months agoI have two bins. One black one for general trash and a county provided yellow bin for all recycling. Once a week, they come to curbside collect what you leave out. You are also allowed one “large” item per week of really any size. Threw out an old queensized boxspring once. Yard waste can be left in brown paper landscaping bags too once a week which has been really nice. Other places I’ve lived, it was a quarterly collection for yard waste. Any bulk metal collection must be scheduled or brought to the county dump directly.

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•How do I explain my reluctance to use generative AI in good faith?
3·2 months agoMy goto is basically since I have to strictly verify all the information/data AI gives me, it’s faster for me to just produce this information myself. It’s what they literally pay me for.

Lemmy Shitpost@lemmy.world•The ancient Greeks or Chinese should have already had words for this.
2·2 months agoThis is a perfect representation of how my mind is laid out. Everything is a tree with things connected together by feelings/relations. Individual events are painful to keep track of (wife constantly tells me that we’ve already had conversations multiple times). Superfluous detail is lost immediately.
But how a certain function in code breaking can ripple to the whole system is as natural as I breathe. Random trivia facts too, since they were novel enough to connect at the cool thing to know node. What someone wore yesterday or where the ketchup is (I don’t eat ketchup) is just completely filtered out. Couldn’t describe peoples faces but I know them when I see them. 99% of those “celebrity lookalike” things look nothing like them and I get baffled how people can confuse them, but I’d assume it’s from them visualizing the celebrity with some error

Ask Lemmy@lemmy.world•Whats your hot take on something that doesnt matter at all?
7·2 months agoFalse. I’d argue 90% of recipes need more salt




Red bell peppers by me are $2.50 each. It’s not just unhealthy food that’s overpriced. Also no clue where you are getting tortillas but I’ve never seen them cheap unless you make them yourself
