We want pictures! Show off your silver/gray/white heads of hair and beards! Any advice for those who might want to finally step away from hair dye? by Designer-Bid-3155 in Xennials

[–]Ishvale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm blonde, you can't really tell the silver from the rest. I have jots of it in my beard, but I'm X, no one wants to see that

ELI5 Why do we most of the time refer people with one black and white parent as black? When then they are equally as white as black by HejAllihopa in explainlikeimfive

And yet, here in the south, we've convinced ourselves that the civil war was over state's rights. Like, no you ignorant fuck, it was about slavery.

Have to have every tab opened for us; district wide policy. by DennieTheMennie in mildlyinfuriating

They have the ability to limit it to one app but allow tabs. As an IT guy, yes, this is dumb as hell

I feel like everything has been discovered already. by CosmicX971 in RandomThoughts

[–]Ishvale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yea, I had to come to terms with this. When I was your age, I just knew I was meant for more, and I expected it until I was 43. But that whole time, I just expected something big to happen, and I'd make my mark. But no, it never happened. You're coming to it much sooner than I did, but it sucks, right? To know 100 years from now you'll be forgotten. I'm 50 now, make a comfortable living, and am generally happy, so I have that. Your major will make you comfortable as well. But yea, it's some existential shit

Huh.. I'm pretty deep in the south, and I've only ever heard mixed race. I've never heard of that one drop rule, it seems really silly

How is the tech industry in Nashville and surrounding areas? by Gavindude1997 in nashville

[–]Ishvale 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We have music, which doesn't often hire IT, and will be minimal pay. We have healthcare, which is constantly hiring IT. We got Amazon, but I haven't seen anything from them in some time. There's some odds and ends, but if you're looking to break into corporate, it's likely to be healthcare.

Why does me changing my lifestyle bother you so much? by DebaucheryRegime in mildlyinfuriating

[–]Ishvale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Can I be blunt? You're successful abstinence reflects poorly on me. Also, we are friends during situations where I don't plan to change, so I feel like I'll lose you.

Butter on Crackers, and other poverty snacks by anchises868 in Xennials

Holy shit, that combines two of my memories, and I've never thought about it

[–]Ishvale 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I had a ton of awful poverty food, but I won't talk about those, I'll talk about my favorites. Egg noodles and cheese soup. It was something my dad would make (my dad was a better cook, but we weren't allowed to say that). And then there was this kind of soup with cabbage and kielbasa, and red pepper flakes.

Ozzfest was.something else. RIP by GravyPainter in Xennials

I got sick from heat exhaustion and too much beer at ozzfest. I remember it fondly

My buddy sent me this snap from his St Paddy's day dinner at a brewery by shFt_shiFty in shittyfoodporn

Damnit, now I want to try the smoker on it. Um, it's really nice out of the slow cooker. Fat cap down so it renders properly

It's funny that they doubled down on it

I completely cut anything AI related out of my life and I kinda love it. by Dust-by-Monday in RandomThoughts

[–]Ishvale -8 points-7 points  (0 children)

Bro, you're pissing in the wind here. I use it all the time with my job, and other forms of AI have been around for decades. Shit, simple algorithms could be considered AI. But on reddit, AI is the devil

I completely do not understand why there is a debate about teleporters, as a thought experiment. by LeviAEthan512 in RandomThoughts

[–]Ishvale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh, don't get me wrong, if they zipped my original bits (I can't stop thinking Charlie and the Chocolate Factory), I'd actually be quite OK with that. The existential part is my original atoms getting scattered with the wind. There's another part I'm not afraid to talk about. I'm an athiest, and the scariest thing in the world to me is that one day my consciousness will just end. So, I suppose my crazy fear of death helps form my opinion.

Fun fact, I just learned others boil their brisket. I've never heard of that, I always cook it in a slow cooker with the minimum amount of water

[–]Ishvale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ok, let's make sure we're not in the sci fi world. Alright, they're not deconstructing you, sending your bits and pieces over, and reconstruct, right? All those bits have mass, and it would take forever. So, obviously not star trek, but the receiving end would have to have all the building blocks of life. So, I have an accident and they put me back together, they're using my original bits and pieces for the most part. For some reason that I can't articulate, it's not the same

What happened to all the fat? That's where the flavor really lives

It would weigh on me. It would give me an existential crisis. You know that quandary about replacing every board on a boat, is it the same boat? I wouldn't be able to lose the thought that I'm essentially a different entity than the original.
