lucky us Tetris wasn’t a thing back when Batman was a kid

first of all, you gotta be a lady

then they say fish helps a lot apparently

this is the correct answer. ear fatiguing is often caused by incorrect EQ settings in your system. using too much of a high-frequency band and you’ll initially get a brighter and better sound, but you’ll soon start to get fatiguing and even headaches.

Radio songs are heavily post-produced by the radio itself, strictly limited in dynamic range and they also have a mastering EQ that provides a bass boost.

I’d suggest OP to check their EQ settings and aim for a more neutral sound.

super interesting! I listened to it on Curio (which needs a subscription) but the title is:

“Magic Mushrooms. LSD. Ketamine. The drugs that power the Silicon Valley”

by Kirsten Grind and Katherine Brindley on the Wall Street Journal.

here’s the Curio link though

they actually do if your mind is susceptible to a breakdown, i.e. a latent psychosis.

I read an article on the WSJ just yesterday that said he (and many others in the Silicon Valley) are using psychedelic drugs while working in order to find new business ideas. they are into microdosing (which I’m not against), but they also throw big drug parties according to the WSJ and that might have messed with his mind. That, COVID and the recent breakup upon a narcissistic personality might be enough to explain his total breakdown.

yeah I don’t know if “fucks up” is the correct term, but it definitely is a neurological virus. see lack of smell and such.

what do you mean google is like apple privacy-wise? Google is HORRIBLE, they invented tracking in order to sell customised ads.

On the other hand, Apple has lots of flaws but a strong privacy nonetheless, since you’re paying upfront their expensive products.

this is basically not understanding what “risk” means. if you have a 1% risk of developing cancer, and by doing something (ie drinking) you double relatively-wise that risk, it’s still only 2% of risk. would you stop drinking and enjoying alcohol and living a happier life for a mere 1%?

all the numbers I’m using are totally random, but it shows that saying “it increases the risk” although technically correct doesn’t mean shit and it’s just fearmongering and a basic inability of understanding information.

oh man, I’d kill to know how to hack my fucking samsung tv. I don’t use it’s useless “business” smart functions, but every time i turn it on it nags me with that terrible menu. and there’s no way to turn it off because they completely fucked it up by pushing ads through that menu.

interesting link I found.

neurogenesis is the cause of memories fading.

this is definitely not true.

when Italy banned ChatGPT due to privacy concerns, I tried Bing that was still working and it’s just loads and loads better due to its access to the internet. when it got finally unblocked again, it felt like speaking to a past image of someone, rather than something alive and actual like Bing.

I’m going back to Reddit from time to time to check the situation and read some micro-communities that i follow and that did not jump the ship.

I gotta say that my previous feed was deeply tailored between interesting discussions, tech and gaming news and some meme and futile discussion (like askmen or aita).

right now, that fine calibrated feed has become an uninteresting mess of memes, reposts and low-quality content. I see that users are still there because upvotes are still high, but it’s not as interesting as it was before.

this might very well be my own perception based on who i followed, but I got the feeling that reddit got taken over by people who only enjoy low-quality content, kind of like facebook, where I used to enjoy discussions with my friends and now it’s just ads and influencers.

yes, hide my email thank you. it’s all part of the apple relay service so I used the general name!

I prefer Apple Relay through my iPhone, it creates an alias that gets redirected to my inbox. if I see it gets spammed, I can in any moment delete that address. and bonus, they will never have my email account, so they can’t trace me, if there’s a leak the leakers won’t know my email, usernames etc.

let’s say google didn’t care and closed their software anyways. who would have sued them? and how would they find about it, since the source code is not public?

this happens to me as well.

I don’t think the two halves of the apple exist, the soulmate etc.

I think we’re all people walking down a road, and sometimes we meet someone else who will join us down that road for a while, and walk with us. maybe after a while they’ll take a different path, the important thing is that we walked together and enjoyed doing so.
