The next time someone calls me a know-it-all I shall inform them that I am actually just an LLM made of meat.

I feel like the chicken wing is more suited

Yup. Late 80s/early 90s The only rule my high school had was that if you brought your guns to school, you had to park in the ‘smokers lot’ since it wasn’t technically on the same property as the school building.

It was just as it sounds, the lot across the street for the students to smoke during class breaks (the teachers were allowed to smoke in the teachers lounge).

haikus don’t have a sweet bass line like this

You can’t murder a Nazi, you just relocate them to a better place (for everyone else).

I know that we have, throughout history, assigned unknowns as supernatural occurrences.

And I don’t think we know everything yet.

So yes? That doesn’t mean the supernatural things are supernatural., just that they exist, we don’t understand them yet.

I’m not starting, I’ve always been gardening.

Anyone have good/active community suggestions?

Unless you have unlimited wealth I wouldn’t go with a horse unless you can board it yourself. Otherwise you’re just leasing and will miss out on most of the bonding that makes up a large part of the horse relationship. It’s all the cost and then some for a third of the reward.

Oh yeah that’s frustrating.

At least the one I posted is easy to identify. (Dude I Got Some Fucking Banana Bread At Work Today…)

For those that don’t get it… it’s copypasta meme from that banana bread rant

They stick their faces in muck water and suck everything up while looking for food. Ducks can eat a lot of things.

We had pekin and they figured out a good food hack. We fed the flocks using gutters (then everyone can feed without fighting for space). But the pekins would straddle the gutter, stick their head in the feed with mouth open, and then flap forward and kick their feet to ‘ride’ the gutter and scoop up as much food as possible. It was highly effective.

They ate 10x more than a regular duck and were 5x louder and always involved with any shenanigans going down. Fuck Pekin ducks.

Not OP but totally sounds real.

Ducks are like that for sure. They will certainly claim a spot. And eggs just kinda come out the egg hole sometimes. Especially if they aren’t able to secure a nest to lay on a schedule.

I’ve seen eggs roll out while they are running past to get to their pond.

Do the bots at least use AI to chat? Because that’s going to be better than the one word answers I get from the real people.

25 years ago I was writing code in a paper notebook, sometimes while riding the bus. The only computer access was at college and it was easier to work through the code on paper and then quickly transcribe it once I got on campus.

Yeah, things are a bit more complicated now, but in other ways they are sooooo much easier. The fact that people are using chatGPT to ‘program’ is just crazy from my perspective.

A good bug net and a tarp are going to be just as effective as a modern tent, and breathe better.

No. Maybe better than a cheap tent from Walmart.

Don’t buy cheap tents or sleeping bags and take care of them.

Work is hard. I’ve worked for souless corporations, it’s hard not to. Sometimes you just have to be servant class and have no other option. Just be sure that you are taking money from them without giving them any excess effort. You can always work towards other opportunities. If you want to do something else, learn to do it. You can learn so many things for free. I just recently accepted a new position with a local company that shares my values. Most of the skills that got me there were things I learned on my own over the last decade. I didn’t go to school for this, nor do I have any directly comparable job experience. Before my last corporate hustle I had a long term job with a local non-profit for many years. I also did not start that position by having the necessary experience. Don’t lose hope, there are always better opportunities in the future.

I control how I spend my money. If I don’t like a company or product I don’t give them any money. Sometimes that means I spend more elsewhere. Sometimes I just have to give up something. I do allow for guilty pleasures occasionally (chocolate).

My grocery bill is minimal because I don’t eat meat, I don’t eat a lot of processed food and I don’t over-eat. I also grow a lot of food (this time of year half or more of my meal ingredients come out of the garden).

The most important thing about HOW I LIVE LIKE THIS?

I don’t judge other people who can’t.

It requires some sacrifice and not everyone can handle that. But I do encourage everyone to try, even a little. If every single person put in effort to be 10% “better” the world would be much better.
