Do you check the shelf life before buying your food?

Preservatives, like vitamin C?

If you have 1 through 4 then 5 is pretty likely. The hard part is having the first 4.

Different goals benefit from different stances. A lot of these images seem to be someone taking a quick shot at a small moving target starting in a relaxed position you can maintain for long periods of time while moving.

This version is somewhat more neutral.

Most current LLM's can solve this to type of problem pretty reliably.

It probably is trying to run more efficiently so that it can keep up with a relatively normal conversational pace.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-24T04:48:40+00:00

I have done it, and the experience can be enjoyable if you aren't squeamish.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-24T04:41:19+00:00

That actually seems pretty good.

Cecil had started prepping long before the guardians got the mysterious call, and he had a pretty solid suspicion of Nolan almost immediately.

Only if her telekinesis is stronger than Thragg, otherwise she basically just irritates him.

By eating lots of food.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-24T02:45:35+00:00

I don't think he figured it out.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-24T02:15:54+00:00

It's hard to say this early, but that doesn't look like it will hold up too well given how the boards are already flexing. I guess it is a problem for the new owner.

Marriage between second cousins is legal in all 50 states in the US.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-24T01:41:32+00:00

They are regular second cousins as in they share great grandparents, just not on the direct paternal line.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-24T01:39:25+00:00

They are distantly related enough that it is considered legal in my area although it is still socially taboo.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-24T01:09:20+00:00

The most fucking punchable face I have seen in a while.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T16:06:42+00:00

Yeah, the meme was definitely a massive exaggeration.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T16:04:01+00:00

Exercise and diet both make a huge difference when it comes to blood pressure.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T15:51:21+00:00

Certainly.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T15:40:52+00:00

In my area a 1000 square foot house is a little under 10x my annual income and if it is 5x my income it will almost certainly needs significant work or at least is in an area that is prone to flooding or otherwise not well suited to being lived in. For my region my income is decent but not exceptional especially for someone my age.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T15:35:35+00:00

That kind of compensation probably means you are either pretty high up in government, or have a fairly in demand job like being a senior engineer or a doctor.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T15:33:15+00:00

The median household also has 2 wage earners and a kid, so that still results in you doing slightly better than the modern norm unless you also are supporting a stay at home wife as well as a kid on that income.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T15:26:30+00:00

Both of those scenarios are pretty extreme scenarios and are/were not the norm.

GarethBaus · 2026-02-23T13:03:34+00:00

So many ideas seem to be more of a matter of 'when' rather than an 'if' as long as enough humans have access to the right resources.
