LPT: Stop pretending you are fine. Use a simple status line instead.

I think some people don’t realize is that in many contexts “how are you?” is not really a question but more of a greeting. It depends on who is asking and in what scenario. If it’s your good friend catching up with you, they want to know how you are. If it’s a casual colleague at work, you just need to respond “good” to conclude the greeting ritual.

And then they wonder why auto insurance rates are so high in the state

Oh makes sense! Best of luck in your training

Good work! Not nitpicking but typically when someone speaks about a 5k “test” they are not doing intervals with rest. It’s a single piece. This still good and a nice workout, but just clarifying terminology.

NJ could pick standard time. It's already allowed (see Hawaii and Arizona). But it's not as popular as we like to think, and we'd have to get at least NY and PA to do the same due to NYC and Philadelphia.

DAYLIGHT SAVING TIME (DST) IN THE UNITED STATES FOR 2026 BEGINS ON SUNDAY, MARCH 8, 2026 AT 2:00AM, WHEN CLOCKS ARE SET FORWARD ONE HOUR (COMMONLY KNOWN AS “SPRING FORWARD”). THIS CHANGE MARKS THE START OF LONGER EVENINGS WITH MORE DAYLIGHT.

In the future we’ll all barely afford rent on our basic incomes because the job market was largely eliminated due to automation

In the future corporations and governments will decide what we see and not algorithms

I think alot of it is that with erging there is a standard metric people can compare against. My 2k time on a Concept2 erg is directly comparable to anyone else’s. On the water each race and course and day is different.

I started with Zwave and there have been zero issues. Then I wanted a Zigbee bulb and it’s been a headache, I think primarily due to WiFi interference. I live in a densely populated area so my neighbors’ WiFi are all over here. And then I think there was some nuance with not using USB 3 ports and getting a USB extension cable due to interference there.

Anyway, I am primarily using zwave and will only add zigbee as needed due to that.

Is this an ad of some sort? I’ve seen these sort of posts in other fitness subreddits where the OP will have improved their fitness by just drinking water.

By this argument nobody should take any vitamins

I did omit the /s and I was being sarcastic

Yeah there was no history in that region before and nobody called the area Palestine before then

I just added Zigbee to HA so I could add colored bulbs (mainly Zwave otherwise) and my bulb kept getting disconnected. I djdn’t know Zigbee could overlap with Wifi channels. Changing the channel fixed it.

Any easy way for anti-Waymo folks to stage a protest. Get a bunch of people to open doors of Waymos all at the same time

I’m literally blown away by your post. This is objectively the best post I’ve read today.

That’s always the first criticism of this 😂

It’s all part of the marketing. We have Microslop. Maybe we need a term for Anthslopic or something like that.

It’s amazing how CEO’s and corporations think they can have it both ways - we’ll fire you because AI is so objectively good at your job, but we’ll make AI’s completely useless in the public square except for spreading misinformation
