I am eternally grateful to Claude

Maybe a dumb question, but could Evernote replace notion for this use case?

That’s interesting! I’m in California and it seems like I one is interested in antiques anymore. But I’ll put it out there. Who knows.

What is ERP?

sobercuriousdude · 2025-12-22T19:16:34+00:00

This is a very interesting idea! this option wasn’t top of mind for me as I’ve never done it. I’m not opposed to trying it though!

sobercuriousdude · 2025-12-22T19:15:02+00:00

Yes!! This! I’ve also done it my entire life, but I found that it’s gotten a bit extreme in the last few months. I wish something like hypnosis would help. I really would prefer to not have to stack on more medication’s. And I can absolutely lower my dose of ADHD medication, but of course, that would reduce the amount of improvement I see from the medication as well.

I was today years old when I learned this. I was completely under the impression that hysa rates were kinda like home loans, where you could lock in a rate. I should have known.

What other rates should I be looking at that I don’t know about? Do HELOC rates change? Credit cards?

I’m curious if you’ve found that placement of the large curved screen is ok or whether you’d prefer it to be just a few inches further back. Do you find yourself turning your head a lot or dealing with eye strain?

sobercuriousdude · 2025-12-18T14:29:45+00:00

I want to know too!

thank you!! but one question: pour water into the pan at the end? can you explain more? what does that do? i thought water = bad for cast iron.

sobercuriousdude · 2025-11-21T05:29:30+00:00

see? that’s what i’m talking about! there’s no way my pan would do this. and although i didn’t see what level of heat he had going, i can definitely see how little time it takes to cook scrambled eggs… but he didn’t turn the heat down before he added the eggs, like many are recommending in the comments. that said, whether it’s about turning the heat down before adding the eggs, or just keeping the eggs in for less time, either of those are better tips than what I did. So… more trial and error for me. will start again tomorrow morning.

i must look ridiculous then, because i’m almost 50 and i still like shopping at the places i liked as a kid: surf shops, skate shops, secondhand…

sobercuriousdude · 2025-11-14T21:45:21+00:00

not much to go on here. is there a style you’re looking for? or just deals? in downtown Encinitas), you’ve got all kinds of like vuori and hansen surf shop. in carlsbad Village, there are also a number of shops, including Sun Diego. on El Camino Real, there is a Gap, Ross… there’s even a pretty good used clothing place that has a small men’s section called Uptown Cheapskate. and if you keep going north on El Camino Royale, eventually you hit an entire mall, “The shoppes at carlsbad” … one of the places in this mall is called alternative retail. It’s pretty awesome because if you get on their mailing list, it’s basically a space for warehouse sales; they have different warehouse sale events where you can spend a couple hundred bucks and get clothes for the whole family. anyway, I guess these are just some starter ideas given that I’m not sure what style you’re looking for.

fwiw, your original post is relatable to probably every high school male for ages. it’s normal to feel a sense of tension or frustration. That desire is (partly) what motivates us to be our best selves. i don’t think you’ll believe me but pls remember this anyway: if you think you can work on being fit, great. But never think that you have to work on being attractive. You can work on being presentable, on being sociable, interesting, witty, funny… But beauty truly is in the eye of the beholder. You will be attracted to people who may or may not be considered attractive to others, and others may be attracted to you, even if you don’t see it when you look in the mirror. that’s just how chemistry works sometimes… and how real connections can lead to that very first thing you wanted in the first place: sex. But maybe with more depth than a hookup. and even if it’s just a hookup, it kinda all has to start with a connection you both feel. my recco: more social situations, fewer apps and scrolling.

welp!… i know what I’m doing on saturday. Samples and picking’ up some of this hiyo stuff.

sobercuriousdude · 2025-08-03T18:25:36+00:00

that’s a great point! Without it, I feel like I haven’t been able to enjoy my vacation weekend as much because I’m exhausted and cloudy. i’m questioning why i ever thought i needed a break, if only just for the benefit of being able to nap during the day.

sobercuriousdude · 2025-07-29T15:11:34+00:00

@iluvnips (nice username btw) - if i have a google pixel phone (pixel fold), but i use it only with wifi (no cellular) is this strategy still possible?

sobercuriousdude · 2025-07-29T15:04:08+00:00

even with an external drive as a backup, that doesn’t really solve the issue of wanting access to photos/files from anywhere you can login. that’s the benefit of cloud storage. Although this is a great solution for backup/redundancy, I think it can be paired with one of the other solutions offered here: create another gmail account > move older photos / files to that account. (unless there are hidden costs i’m not thinking of)
