  • I suffered with what I thought was IBS for the last ~10 years. 4+ liquid shits per day with complete unpredictability.

    Turns out coffee was the problem.

    I switched to tea two weeks ago and I’m down to 2 normal and predictable shits per day. I’ve also gained a few pounds because I’m not so dehydrated anymore. That’s a good thing for me.

    Man, you’re a real insufferable cunt. Lambasting the “high road” while parking your ass firmly in the middle of it. Unreal.

    [Edit] Isn’t it funny when people act like asshokes on the internet, get rebuked for it and then delete their comments?

    If you weren’t willing to stand behind your comments why did you post them in the first place? This is some weak ass revisionist behaviour.




  • Fair enough.

    For me personally, I love having technology from right before the explosion of Bluetooth integration. For example, I have stereo receivers and other sets of speakers that require that 3.5mm jack for input. Not having that jack on my current phone (Pixel 8) has made it more annoying to use these devices. Also, I still have an iPod Classic that I used to use exclusively in the car but now I have to carry it around more so it can be used with my old stereos.

    Also, I can’t stand the bluetooth latency; especially in the car. If I’m parked having lunch somewhere, I can’t watch a video without a terrible audio desync.

    I still value the 3.5mm jack.





  • Of all the current media subscription services, this is the one I have no issue paying for. The service I get for the money I pay is appropriate. I’ve taken my own measures to limit the amount of PII that Google can vacuum up from my life as well. I’m fine with them knowing what I like to watch and providing algorithmic recommendations for new content. I police said algorithm aggressively to ensure its always on topic and never trying to show me ragebait or shit I don’t want to see.

    When the day comes that the cost outweighs the return I’ll stop paying for it and use Grayjay or Newpipe or whatever other option there is. If its a full on dystopia by then, well y’know what? I don’t need Youtube to survive. I’ll be fine without it.

    It’s fine to have AI stuff as a hobby but I’m sorry; AI generated art has no business in an art gallery with human art.

    Rent/host your own spaces, open your own galleries, hold your own events. No one is saying that people can’t engage with AI art. What they’re saying is that the effort to legitimize AI art as an equal to human art is incredibly damaging and cancerous.
