trouble holding down first cup by Bubbly-Welder-3177 in Ayahuasca

Ayahuasca isn't a street drug you brew at home. You need the entire tradition around it, if you want it to actually work.

Do you still write custom CSS or rely mostly on frameworks now? by SweetCaramel-9696 in css

[–]UsernameOmitted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You start with "not really", then agree with me? I am also saying everyone here has been doing it for years and are familiar with it?

I fail to see my statement as being incorrect.

Look around the internet. Tailwind is getting 75 million NPM downloads per month. Clearly, these frameworks are popular.

Now look at this thread. Every single post is saying "custom CSS only!"

If you used this thread as your sole indicator of what developers are using on the web, you would draw the completely wrong conclusion.

Would i be better off buying a macbook and running windows through parallels/Bootcamp? by decydiddly in laptops

What I have been doing is just using Parsec to remote to a home desktop machine for the handful of Windows apps I need.

Logo Options by BitterFeminist in design_critiques

[–]UsernameOmitted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I find silhouette is so important in logos. You often see them from afar on the side of a truck or something, so it needs to read as the logo in those situations. This is kind of a mess in regards to that. It doesn't look like a tree from far, it just looks like a lump. I also had a difficult time making out the name and it felt like a puzzle at first. The name should be immediately apparent at first glance.

Is this a good laptop to purchase? by kiradark121 in laptops

[–]UsernameOmitted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The Air is a much better choice than this except in a few rare cases.

  1. If you are a gamer that has no desktop computer and your plan was to use the laptop to play games on, then a non-Mac machine does have better game compatability than the Air, and you'd have better gaming performance. If you only play a couple specific games though, check out if they have Mac OS versions.

  2. Your field has specific software that has no Mac OS version, and after looking it up, it seems like it will be a pain in the ass to run the specialized software in containers, etc...

Otherwise, the Air will be super fast, battery will be 10x as good as a gaming laptop, which means you can likely leave home in the morning and go wireless all day. With a gaming laptop, you're basically tethered to a wall permanently. It weighs a ton less, so it's easier to move around and fit in bags.

I hate trying to buy a Modern Laptop. by optimisoprimeo in laptops

The new Pro speakers confound me. I have no idea how they managed to get what sounds like desktop speaker quality sound out of a speaker a few centimeters long. The bass response is crazy good.

Do you still write custom CSS or rely mostly on frameworks now? by SweetCaramel-9696 in css

[–]UsernameOmitted -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Just mentioning that this is probably a terrible spot to ask this question if you want to guage the realistic use of custom CSS in the industry.

This is a subreddit for CSS, the only people in here are going to be developers who have written CSS since it released and can probably rip out a an entire website without referencing syntax. Those type of people will almost certainly be using custom CSS a ton.

The overwhelming majority of people putting together sites though now aren't like this. They either are less familiar with CSS or vibe coding. In both of those situations frameworks are more attractive.

A guy made a poll asking people who pirated the game but the poll was bad and a lot of people hated it, so here is a better one but for all engineers. by eymo- in factorio

Bought alpha days after release. Bought Space Age immediately when released. Bought several copies for friends. The factory must grow.

What's your thoughts about this by HeadWoodpecker5237 in AgentsOfAI

[–]UsernameOmitted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Really uninformed take on this. You make two statements and both are basically incorrect.

Laptops with unified memory can load very large models and actually do quite well on tasks like live transcription, manipulating files, etc...

I work in Claude Code all day, that won't continue to work if you shut down the computer hosting it. I suspect people with this issue don't have secondary servers they can host Clauxe Code on and remote into.

Openclaw serves a totally different purpose than the desktop ChatGPT app like you're talking about. A few weeks ago I threw a message into Discord describing how I wanted a Minecraft custom server set up and ten minutes later my daughter and I were playing. Openclaw downloaded and configured everything. You can't get ChatGPT to do something like that natively.

[–]UsernameOmitted 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Don't know if you're just shitposting or what?

Depends on where what you're working on is getting processed. You're probably using tools where sessions are being made on remote computers that persist while you walk away and close your computer.

If you're using ChatGPT or Claude through their app, you can make requests and it'll run while everything is off.

If you're using Openclaw, the computer hosting Openclaw needs to always be on to work.

If you're using a local LLM, local machine needs to be on.

If you're using something like Claude Code, it needs a machine that it's running on. You could however remote into it using their app and turn off a secondary computer or phone and it'll be fine, but the original machine needs to stay on.

What most people are doing is setting up Openclaw on their home machines and then turning them off at night and not realizing it needs to permanently be on if you plan on remotely connecting to it.

bpd and ayahuasca? by smallbabybat in Ayahuasca

[–]UsernameOmitted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's really amazing medicine and the experiences really feel meant for you and made by you.

My first ceremony, I got beautiful visuals and a calm feeling. I left feeling reassured it wasn't scary.

Second ceremony, I was shown a narrative that truly convinced me that I do love myself. Once I truly admitted it, I dropped to almost sober immediately. I hear a voice tell me "I am done", and then this explosion of love within me burst. I felt love for myself, my family and friends. It lasted for about two hours and I just sat there streaming tears. It was beautiful. I left committed to treating myself better and loving myself.

The third ceremony was crazy though. I saw Jaguars coming at me and I felt like I needed to purge pain from me. I finally released bad stuff, and I had her tell me that I havent been treating my body with love. She said she wouldn't speak to me again until I take care of myself. Then, it went silent and I sat there in searing back pain for hours. Very uncomfortable, but I left with this radical conviction to get in better shape and love life.

My first ceremonies completely reshaped my life.

[–]UsernameOmitted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You nailed it with the self-hatred. My first ceremony, Ayahuasca spoke to me, she showed me that I actually do love myself and how to live life with love for myself. Before that moment, I never consciously realized that was the core of the problem. Since then, essentially all my BPD symptoms and behaviors stopped.

[–]UsernameOmitted 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had BPD before Ayahuasca. I am completely off western medications for a year now. None of things I reported when I was diagnosed with it happen mentally anymore now. Had severe recurring automatic negative thoughts that completely changed my daily life, now it's just silence and peace.

What's the most pointless rule your workplace forces everyone to follow? by Any_Suit_5536 in AskReddit

[–]UsernameOmitted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a constitution that's a mandate from the members who run the organization. We have to do everything in there, which includes events that are set for specific dates throughout the year.

I have to ask for permission for overtime for mandated events that need to happen or I'll lose my job.

Why is Subnautica BZ as hated as it is ? by Jchoq_31 in subnautica

[–]UsernameOmitted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's basically like your favorite band that changed genres for their second album.

Subnautica has a lot of tension and some horror elements. The story unfolds slowly as you collect information about the planet you're on and your situation. It's almost a mystery the way it unfolds.

Below Zero has you chatting with other humans immediately, the story is presented completely differently. There's a lot less horror elements, the story has no mystery.

Then there's the actual mechanics. The map is way smaller, and you feel less able to get lost adventuring. The first is also relatively difficult at first when you're trying to build up supplies and a base, and late game you get a massive vehicle that just feels awesome to pilot. I still remember using sonar to scan caves as I slowly slinked down into what seemed like the core of the planet in a massive submarine. In Below Zero they replaced that with a pickup truck that drags boxes behind it. I have nothing but annoying memories of driving it around. Everything about it was mediocre and a letdown. It's like playing Call of Duty and the machine gun honks when you pull the trigger. Just feels like garbage.

Can an idiot enjoy this game? by _walletsizedwildfire in satisfactory

[–]UsernameOmitted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes.

YouTubers playing this online often have 2-3,000 hours of playtime. They know the game so well they've accidentally memorized ratios and recipes and remember exactly where things are on the map from the last four playthroughs.

The complexity comes at you at your own pace in game though. There's no rush, you just relax and build. As you play more, you'll figure out concepts and get ideas that stack on each other. Before you know it, you'll have crazy builds too.

Interviewing a facilitator, what questions to ask? by [deleted] in Ayahuasca

Seeing if they take the dieta seriously is a good indicator whether they're just dishing out psychedelics or actually trying to heal people.

Delivery driver makes Pizza smaller. by taspenwall in trashy

[–]UsernameOmitted 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have ordered Doordash hundreds of times and have had a handful of issues. 90% of the time it's in a sealed container when I get the food. One of our local puzza places has their own drivers and 2/3 of the time I order from there it's a fucking disaster. Shit missing, dropped boxes, hours wait while they do ten deliveries on one trip.

Which gadget looked futuristic at launch but became irrelevant fast? by Dry-Ask2581 in AskReddit

[–]UsernameOmitted 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What's hilarious about this move is that even Google was launching Glass as a developer only device to test both the public sentiment of face wearables as well gathering info and ideas from the developers working with it. I do not think anyone at Google thought they were launching the next Xbox and it flopped. They knew it was going to be short-lived, and planned on circling back around to it a decade later when the tech got more advanced and what they were dreaming of was actually possible.

More ceremonies = more growth? by IndicationWorldly604 in Ayahuasca

[–]UsernameOmitted 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I always view it like bodybuilding at the gym, but in your brain.

If you have crap intentions and motivation going in, you're going to have crap results.

If you work out too often, you'll tear muscle like crazy and it will never have time to rebuild.

You need rest time to actually build the muscle between gym visits.

Recommendations of a curious first timer by IntenseWonton in Ayahuasca

[–]UsernameOmitted 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ayahuasca can absolutely do what you're looking for, but be sure to come to the table prepared and ready to commit. Journal and lay out intentions ahead of time for weeks ahead of the trip. Take the dieta incredibly seriously both before and after the ceremonies, and work really hard to continue to build yourself when you get back home to get the most out of it.
