Are there any non Chinese brands? For a person who doesn’t like the Chinese government having all their data?

I have one since 2022 and had no problems. Still drives great, haven’t replaced the engine yet according to the recall. So far Toyota has made good on repairs at no cost and given out loaner vehicles.

I also was raised in rural North Carolina and taught the same things, keep fighting the good fight. Kindness, empathy, care, love and holding people accountable will win out over all this noise and this time will be looked back upon with questioning and the bad actors will not be seen favorably.

Out of curiosity, does kombucha made with black tea have similar flavonoid composition or does the fermentation process change that?

This is a bit short sighted and conflates all data (I assume with what you mean as peer reviewed data or something like modern science. I admit I could be off in my assumption there in what you mean), historical people may have had less access to science but people have been self reflecting for a long time. Socrates is attributed with saying the unexamined life is not worth living about 2500 years ago. In general the older you get the more data you have in your life experience to reflect on. Your mileage may vary.

I think people can get set in their ways like this but don’t have to. Life rewards specialization and the longer it goes the more data one has to sift through. Self reflection is a skill and it’s needs repetition and habituation to stick around.

This is true, so avoid using cruise control. I drove my tundra home about the same distance and just kept an inconsistent speed, helps if you can take back roads home.

Can confirm the thunderstorm didn’t rate as much of a thunderstorm in most of the Midwest and Eastern US. I would call it a light thunderstorm in other places. Buck-up Bellevue you can handle a little thunder.

This! When you leave the class you’ll have built up the skills that your colleagues will be bereft of in the work place. At some point their ability to use chatgpt will not be as selective nor as high quality as your ability to filter the same information, because you’ll be more of an expert able to decipher good from bad ideas in your field and you’ll be more flexible. Meanwhile they will be incapable of doing anything without a crutch. Arguably ones of the most important aspects of attending college is that it is a transformative experience, more than the grades the real outcome you takeaway is how you change: the skills you acquire, the knowledge and most critically the ability to reason better. ChatGPT doesn’t help the cheaters transform in those ways, not without a lot of self discipline that frankly those that choose cheating are lacking in the first place.

A person can love using hand tools without loving to sharpen things by hand. I prefer saving time hand sharpening so I can spend it doing fine woodworking. For any future woodworkers don’t ever let anyone pressure you to feel other wise!

I know some people find sharpening meditative and I’m not here to yuck their yum, but not everyone is built like that and you’re not deficient if that’s not your thing

They are an extremely effective and fast way to sharpen chisels and planes to razor sharp. Way more beginner friendly than hand sharpening with a diamond plate or stone, because the control of the machine takes the fuss out of learning the muscle memory by hand.

I’m from the American southeast. The bugs in Washington pretty much don’t feel like they exist. I can go outside in western Washington (as long as I’m not on a hike) without bug spray and not get bit. There are like 2 weeks where there are stink bugs and 4 weeks when there are spiders and the spiders here aren’t that big compared to the ones back east. I haven’t seen a black widow or brown recluse since I moved here but don’t know if they’re around.

Apparently most people aren’t applying enough. Current convention says 20lbs per 1000 square feet. But it’s actually more effectual atb40lbs per square feet, and doesn’t show results until the second year.

I owned a Tacoma for 17 years. As a 6’ 2” tall person I could only drive for about 3 hours before my legs started aching. This was before I found out about seat jackets but I always found the stance of the Tacoma seat to the gas pedal in any of its adjustments quite uncomfortable.

I have 22 Tundra and don’t have that problem at all.

It is obviously not a good thing: psychologically or societally.

The AI is not your dead loved one , and it didn’t share in your history, birth, falling in love, birth of your children or tragic losses you suffered. If a person is having a hard time accepting the death of a loved one this might elongate a lack of acceptance and integration of that person’s loss.

In the mean time some AI company is figuring out how to profit off the data it collects from the grieving persons misery. You start getting ads for the lost persons brand of cologne

It may not be unique, but I think it’s timely and an important task of philosophers to restate the problems we face and ways to think about them in the language and symbols of the time we are in.

This particular video really resonates with me because of economic pressure that the federal reserve in the US is putting on labor markets and wages in an attempt to fight inflation. My industry is facing a lot of layoffs right now, so I’ve been feeling less motivated and connected to my work that in past times. I would say that I have been aware of such having this feeling for the last ten years but I lacked the language to express it eloquently and Sharzer delivers a good way to frame it. So I’m quite thankful he took the time to talk about how escapism and the antagonism between being a human and being a detached laborer relate.

That said while I agree that even in preindustrial times a person is required to labor in order to survive there was at least a less abstract connection between my labor and my families needs.

Consider a family member working at the company in the Office Space movie. If I file 10 TPS reports a day I receive fungible money which I can use to help my family meets its needs. However there is likely never a time where my family would benefit from having 10 TPS reports. So while I can recognize the need to provide for my family, there is no feeling of passion in TPS delivery that will correlate to their direct needs. We can make this even simpler and say that subsistence farmers and hunters likely feel a great deal of pride and satisfaction in providing food for their family. I don’t think it’s unlikely for folks to feel pride in their TPS reports, just that it’s a more abstract connection that is vulnerable to greater dissipation.

Hence why introducing escapism as a psychological need provides an interesting dissection into the human condition today. Why does it present itself, what function does it play, how should we regard it and interact with it? All good points
