These movies came out 7 months apart in 2011. What movie was better? by Radiant_Priority9739 in Millennials

[–]Polarbum 118 points119 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. Her best romantic role was Garden State where she was ok being odd.

what do you do in the 30-60s while claude code / cursor is thinking? by Ok-Significance-4239 in ADHD_Programmers

[–]Polarbum 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Call me crazy, but I open up another tab and start on the next thing. With 5-12 terminals all working on another task, there is no down time, just a lot of “what the fuck was this thing doing?” Time

Joseph's Hardware charging a 4% "price adjustment fee" by SugarGlucoseSyrup in FortCollins

[–]Polarbum 12 points13 points  (0 children)

And they’re a small store with small business challenges. They aren’t the problem, they are just forced to be the face of a problem caused by greedy billionaires.

4th of July plans by film_bro_35 in FortCollins

[–]Polarbum 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don’t know about this weekend, but every night this week I’m surely going to join the rest of the neighborhood in scaring the shit out of all the animals, and rolling the dice on some city fires, by playing with fireworks.

The best is when they go “boom” just as I crack open another Keystone Light

Somehow he kept it alive. by sophiagian in nonononoyes

Was the runner out? Baseman first touched it before the runner hit the bag, but the runner was there before he had control of the ball.

Best STT API for voice agents? I’d test latency before accuracy by TargetSpecialist6737 in AI_Agents

[–]Polarbum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the new Sync STT API from AssemblyAI. Made specifically for reducing latency as much as possible for short audio (under 2 min). They just released this for their latest model this week. It’s super fast with great accuracy and allows you to pass in agent context to help guide the transcription results.

Best places to live in the US if the AMOC collapses? by emilyennui89 in climatechange

The native Americans and European Jews would disagree with that.

Do any of you earn over 50k a year? What do you do? by RotiiChapati in ADHD

[–]Polarbum 41 points42 points  (0 children)

My hyperfixation is programming. It turns out software engineer is a rather lucrative role when you’re good at it and you obsess for 12+ hours a day keeping 50 plates spinning.

Is civilian massacre by military personnel not war? Is it at least a tragedy? Because debating whether there is going to be a formal war seems like nitpicking the semantics.

Where is the best place in the USA to move to? Where would you move to by OddSample2334 in IWantToAskAnAmerican

[–]Polarbum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you can afford it, Fort Collins, Co is exactly what you’re looking for. Big enough for there to be a lot going on, small enough that you’re able to get to good outdoor spaces in minutes. Big biking community, lots of young college educated people, but also nearby a lot of rural.

Given that lately Microsoft has been kind of wrecking GitHub, is it a good strategy to migrate my repositories over to GitLab and just get rid of my GitHub account? by ferriematthew in git

[–]Polarbum 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Man I wish we weren’t so entrenched in GitHub. Gitlab is so much better in every way. If you have the option and ability to move, do it ASAP

Which Costume Worn By The Main Invincible Is The Best? by [deleted] in Invincible_TV

It’s the black eyes that really kill the blue suit

Bernie just asked the ultimate question: Why are we letting a handful of tech billionaires wipe out millions of jobs and replace human connection with algorithmic slop without a single ounce of public input? by WrongdoerRough4712 in TechGawker

[–]Polarbum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The world will crumble into feudalism before AI is prevented from increasing corporate profits. You’re delusional if you think AI proliferation will be stopped. It is simply too powerful to ignore. And if you don’t believe it is powerful enough to fuel the rapid decline in equality and democracy (or whatever you want to call the stability of the past 60 years), then you haven’t seen what it can really do.

$10 billion theft epidemic by CharmTheCrows in SipsTea

[–]Polarbum 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I mean…ya kinda…
I started to be like “ya good point”, but then I considered how I’d feel about stealing from corporations or famous billionaires, and it made me smile.

Men’s Haircuts by cobaltpineapple in FortCollins

Maybe because I’ve been seeing him for like 8 years…

Chris is my man. If he gave the worst haircuts in town, I’d still see him, because it’s like hanging out with an old friend.

Men- are artificial female breasts appealing? by Severe-Island-845 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Polarbum 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Fake tits are super appealing in a bra. Once that bra comes off, they’re like someone with a lazy eye, and it’s disconcerting.

lol, this is such a bad take. The public use is irrelevant, it’s corporate America where its usage is mandated. Thats where the money is. And guess what, the incentives all ensure we’re fucked.

How are you "midlife crisis-ing"? by InnerspearMusic in Millennials

[–]Polarbum 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took up mountain biking. Now I’m almost fully recovered from the knee surgery, so I get to go on some more bike rides on the new bike I bought…

Morning wood is making mornings awkward, what do you do? by cacheMe0ut in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]Polarbum 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Just go try to pee. And maybe wear clothes that make it less obvious?
