stract has same issue mentioned above where search engines are actually the only time i want data on me to be easily accessible. not being able to search “food near me” is frustrating, and no privacy-centered google alternative i’ve been happy with has had that feature. im fine with my location and other relevant metadata on me getting used in a search, as long as that metadata is in a black box restricted to me that doesn’t create a profile for advertising companies
Would you mind sending it my way? I’d be curious to use it
does kagi spit out location-relevant information? that’s something I’ve really missed on startpage, I like being able to just google “chinese food” and have the restaurants near me spit back out, and if a privacy-centered search engine can return a result comparable to something like google there that’d make me real happy
I think the observation that there’s more subs than doms, generally speaking, is a salient one and one worth keeping in mind. I honestly wish I had been told that when I was looking actively for a dominant partner because like, yeah you’re almost definitely right it’s just not something I’d ever really thought about bc it’s so much easier to contextualize your own struggle than try to think about the bigger picture
I’m masc presenting and I was worried for a while that women tended to not like submissive men, which was really discouraging for me. I found my current partner though, who does, and that’s really changed my perspective. I’m not remarkable in any means (I’m 6’ tall but not conventionally attractive, not thin/don’t have tremendous muscle. Just kinda average) but my perspective has changed from “women don’t like submissive men” to “lots of women do like submissive men, there’s just 1) not a ton of them, 2) they don’t tend to advertise it the same way men do, and 3) they don’t tend to look as intently as submissive men do for dominant partners” – partially because there’s just less dominant women, and partially because I think they find long-term partners that meet those needs and that’s it for them
I’m not gonna tell you it’s easy, it’s not, but I’m a thoroughly unremarkable person that was pretty comfortably in your shoes for a long time and then I lucked out into my partner. The best advice I can give is being a decent person goes a long way towards smoothing over any concerns with dom/sub dynamics, and if that dynamic is important to you it’s good to be open to talking about it even if it results in failure. Find spaces where advertising that is beneficial too, join your local kink community – I’ve been to a few kink events, namely just sloshes and munches, casual stuff out at a bar. Nothing tremendously freaky, but it’s a good place to find women that might be more interested in someone that identifies themselves as a sub. Good luck!!
its one of the use-cases that AI truly makes sense in to me, because it feels like voice assistant technology has really plateau’d, and an LLM seems like a good way to process natural language
holy shit I’m glad I saw this because i thought my screen was going or something, the colors are good but they’re just barely different enough to where I thought I was going crazy
Ooh, is there a way to do this with Spotify? I have such a hard time committing to making playlists, getting an ai to start them for me would actually be awesome
As far as price/performance ratio, iems are unbelievable. I used to be an over-ear purist but the quality of iems have blown me away that I’ve moved over almost completely. I keep a pair of high quality iems at my desk for listening/daily use at my computer, and a pair of galaxy buds 2 are my knock-arounds for daily use while out and about, doing chores, or even while sleeping (foam tips make them remarkably good as both earplugs and also for listening to whatever helps you fall asleep)
Shift your frame of reference from caring about losing to caring about improving. If you care about improving, both losing and winning are data points to further help you improve, and then suddenly there’s no negative result. It’s simple but making that shift was a really healthy change in perspective imo
And brave being built on chromium is somehow markedly better?
Just join skein gang/raid academy/the crossroads inn depending on NA/EU, it’s actually trivially easy to get into raids if you know what resources the community has – knowledge is the only hump you really have to get over
Low-key, raid legendary armor is super easy to get (6 weeks of moderate investment, less if you have LI already, and you get a set of ascended armor halfway through for your troubles to gear a build of a diff armor weight since envoy1 isn’t a precursor set) and makes gearing a whole host of builds waaaaayyyyy easier. Def been a big qol increase
Yeah, exactly. Even if it can’t, I still think that’s a preferrable solution, it’s easy enough to glaze over spoilers if you’re just scrolling to something you wanna see, or you can just ctrl+f
I think that a weekly thread that populates replies automatically as new episodes come out would be a good compromise regarding sparing people’s front pages from a deluge of posts and also keeping things relatively indexed so people can avoid spoilers
I could, and have, write multiple essays about why I think willbender is a triumph of design and a blast to play in every mode and I will never shut up about it
I hope they do. But for now I’d rather them not all lose work overnight, nor do I want all of the indie devs getting blindsided by these changes to unity to have to give up on, port, or delist their projects. I want unity to change for the better more than I want them to crash and burn. But I do think this will serve as an awakening for some segments of the industry to not put all their eggs in one basket with a company as greedy as unity. I hope Godot takes off in use, or Epic keeps using fortnite money to make unreal an attractive development platform and continues to be a good steward of it. That’s wishful thinking though, given the current state of unity lol
im super on the fuck unity train right now but like, real normal people work there that need employ and have families to support. I hope unity changes course due to public sentiment but i don’t really think that death threats forcing an office closed are going to be the way to invite that change
Truthear holas or the tangzu wan’er are generally the go-tos at that price point afaik
speaking of grayjay, how is it? I remember it releasing and then heard a whole lot of nothing after the fact, is it a solid client? I’d love something like vanced that doesn’t require a whole bunch of fiddling to achieve a similar featureset
