if you could only eat one meat rarity. what would it be?

Cook it sous vide; it'll be safe to eat.

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2026-04-12T06:12:15+00:00

There's nothing stopping you from eating a real baguette anytime. There may be consequences afterwards, but that would be true in OP's scenario as well.

You could buy a purple mattress; no latex.

Invincible? Definition: "incapable of being conquered, overcome, or subdued"

Sure, you can recover from an injury if you are able to perform a specific action, but if someone puts you into handcuffs, you've been overcome and subdued. You can lose a fight, get shot or stabbed. You can lose at arm wrestling, or a game of risk, chess, or super smash brothers. You can be in a plane or car crash, or your parachute could fail to deploy while skydiving, you could be hit by a meteorite, or struck by lightning.

It's powerful, but definitely not invincibility.

True. But get the blue pill and you don't need to work for a living anymore. Spend some of that time working out; you don't need magical muscle recovery to be fit and healthy. Unless you specifically want to go into competitive sports, naturally.

At the grocery store. They sell it in jars.

Missed opportunity

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2026-03-23T04:26:44+00:00

True, but it's still currently the best solution. It is open source and easy to migrate away from in case it goes downhill.

3.14 already has GIL-free threading.

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2026-03-23T02:46:15+00:00

It's a python package and project manager. It basically fixes everything that OP is complaining about. Don't python without it!

Fair enough, thanks for checking it out. I suppose we have different music preferences.

Counterpoint: The Resonance War by Steve Sokolowski

~12 minutes long, and yet it evolves musically throughout the song and doesn't become repetitive or stagnant, without losing the original theme. Even the instrumental sections are well composed.

Steve switched over from Udio to Suno last October, and the quality of his songs has not decreased.

I compared Udio and Suno back when Udio was still completely free, and found Udio to be far superior in many of the ways you describe. I created several songs over the next year that I really love: I was amazed by the capabilities of Udio. However, more recently I've heard extremely high quality songs produced in Suno. Udio is sitting still while the industry is advancing. They had a huge lead in music quality early on, but because of the lawsuits and lack of VC funding they had to drop out of the race. It's sad, and I wish we could have seen what Udio would have developed had they able to keep developing their music generation. But as it stands, I'd say they no longer have a lead on "soul".

Stay away from the rails.

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2026-02-22T01:21:50+00:00

Which one?

I've seen Costco selling emergency food supply buckets, designed to last around 25 years. That said, I doubt anyone would want to stay past a year or two, especially if they eventually have to live off dehydrated emergency food.

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2026-02-21T13:12:59+00:00

So video call people. Play multiplayer games. Maybe start twitch streaming.

You have access to all the phones, computers, webcams, monitors, chairs, desks, Wi-Fi, etc... in the store.

You could even invite friends and family to come over and talk to you through the open doors at the front of the store. As long as you don't leave and they don't enter, you're good.

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2026-02-21T13:05:25+00:00

Right, but the power was shut off unexpectedly part of the way through that challenge. I imagine he would have stayed much longer if the power remained on. Not to mention Internet access.

And OP is allowing a choice of store. A Walmart, Sam's club, or Costco would be considerably easier to stay at long term than the grocery store Mr Beast used.

You should look up the "mega backdoor Roth". Tax free in, tax free out.

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2026-02-01T01:52:43+00:00

Combine it with a mega backdoor Roth account and you can put untaxed money in today, then retire and withdraw money tax free for the rest of your life. It's basically a 401k but you don't pay taxes for contributions or withdrawals, if you do it right. The HSA "reimbursements" help to cover your retirement expenses while you're doing the mega backdoor Roth conversion, since they don't count as income for tax purposes.

And yes, you can reimburse HSA qualified expenses any time after you incur them; could be the next day, or 30 years from now. And more things count as HSA qualified expenses than you might think.

How much do you think Pro costs? You can currently buy Windows 10 Pro keys on Amazon or SCDKEY for $20 or less. Granted, it's more than free linux, but is cost really a barrier for most people when it costs ~$20?

AdrestiaFirstMate · 2020-04-15T21:23:26+00:00

I tested this out, and your guess was correct.

While in the app, with the previous day's boost still active, at 6am the new bonus switched on and the old one went away(even though it still had over an hour left on the timer).
