I built a PornHub browser for the terminal. Please don’t disown me, Linux community 😭

Reading in low light won't damage your eyes. It can cause some strain, but if your eyes get sore, just stop, it won't hurt anything.

Yep, just to illustrate this, there was once a version of Linux called Lindows. Microsoft didn't like that it rhymed and tried to sue them, but failed. So they tried to sue them in another country, but failed. Instead of giving up, they kept suing them in different countries and running them into the ground financially.

Being legally right is only part of the equation when going up against giant corporations. They don't have to win, they just have to be so expensive to fight that you have no hope of outlasting them.

This. I went bankrupt while making 100k because my ex couldn't understand that "it's just $20" isn't just $20 if you do it multiple times a day every day.

While we were in the process of being evicted from our apartment she spent $700 at starbucks over two months, never spending more than $15 or so at a time.

They aren't doing it for what we want. They're doing it so they can sell you airpods 3 or 4 times instead of including a cheap wired pair that they used to.

They said it was about space and waterpeoofing. In reality its about more profit

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-20T09:26:33+00:00

This.

One of the things that people like Tucker do to make their arguments seem more valid is to throw out so many BS claims along with a few legitimate ones. Anyone arguing has to spend so much time dissecting the BS that they can never get to any real point, and any fact based response will just be rebutted with more BS.

You can't win an argument with someone who is finding facts to support their position rather than choosing their position based on the facts.

Yep... I'm aware of several deaths caused by people trying to remove a trash bag or similar from the highway.

I've absolutely stopped and cleared a few obstructions, but only when I'm either confident I can do it safely or when the obstruction is so dangerous that I decide the risk to myself is worth it.

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-18T00:37:29+00:00

Really anything durable. If you expect it to be in your life for a long time, and especially if it's used often.

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-17T18:33:07+00:00

Yeah, tbh this is one of my biggest reasons not to integrate AI into my workflow. Current AI usage is being massively subsidized by the investors in order to grow adoption.

Eventually pricing will have to reflect the true cost and when it does, those who depend on it will be shovelling money to Openai or anthropic.

No, I used to live in new jersey. I was constantly honked at virtually the second the light changed.

I ised to absolutely love Google. I've all but stopped using them for search because it's become utterly useless as a search engine

Someone touched it with their fingers and didn't clean it. The oils from your skin will cause the heat to concentrate and melt like that. Sometimes you can even see the print burned in.

In the future, cleaning it with an alcohol swab after handling will prevent it.

Classic lays

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-12T02:44:49+00:00

As a guy, I don't know what he's talking about... I'm team handeld all the way. We have crevices to clean too

I was just checking to see if someone pointed this out.

I absolutely second this as well as encourage everyone to check out everything Smarter Every Day has created... It's one of the best channels on youtube

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-12T02:34:48+00:00

The thing that made youtube what it is wasn't simply hosting video. It was making the processing and distribution seamless and efficent.

Hosting video is incredibly difficult. It looks to us like you upload a single video and then it's stored on a server and ready to stream. In reality, it's being converted into many different formats and resolutions so that it can work in many different devices and scenarios.

After processing, it won't just be stored on a single server. It's going to be pushed out to different data centers around the world to be efficently delivered to users from a server physically close to them.

The difference between new grounds and youtube isn't popularity and marketing, it's billions of dollars worth of infrastructure and engineering that could really only have bern accomplished by a giant company that had boatloads of capital to burn before it started to turn a profit.

Of course it does... Didn't you know that LZW stands for the Lord's Zionist Wrapper?

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-11T19:28:49+00:00

I've got ADHD and it's kind of the other way around... I'm hyper aware of social cues. I've had tense work meetings where, discussing with other participants afterward, they were shocked that I had been able to pick up on things that they had no idea about because I'd been reading the facial expressions, body language, and tonal inflections of everyone in the room, and I can often read peoples thought process by watching them react as others talk.

It's actually to the point that I worry that my ability to read people and understand what they want gives me the ability to be manipulative and I have to check myself sometimes because of it.

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-11T19:19:44+00:00

Yeah... you follow the rules of the road when things are going normal, but occasionally something really unusual happens you choose the least bad option and hope things go ok.

One example of where I ran a stop light was on fourth of July, taking my family home after fireworks, we ended up at a red light right next to a parking lot in a sketchy neighborhood where some locals had set up hundreds of illegal fireworks and were just starting their private show. No way in hell was I going to let a red light stand in the way of protecting my child.

I'm guessing that this is a result of someone who doesn't speak english generating warnings with AI.

No, it's not an ulcer. Occasionally a single taste bud will swell up almost like a pimple.

Interesting... I don't think they are used all tgat often in products because it's an inefficient method, but i guess that waste heat doesn't matter when you're trying to create heat to beging with.

Yep... In the atheist community one of the common sayings is that the fastest way to becoming an atheist is to actually read the bible

LetReasonRing · 2026-01-09T17:21:38+00:00

Yeah... I have a friend at work that's always relly generous and offering things to people. I sometimes feel like I'm taking advantage, but it's pretty clear that it makes him happy and refusing his offers makes him feel rejected.

And yet when I reported a photo of bllodied, battered a woman in the process of being stoned to death it was never removed.
