I am not a robot. I promise.


For reference, I’m now 43 years old.
Around 20 years ago, around age 23, I decided to keep my wallet in my right front pocket, 24/7, save for bathing and clothes changing. Yes I do sleep with my wallet in pocket, it never leaves my vicinity.
I keep my wallet where it can’t easily be stolen, right next to the family jewels ya know…


Interesting, I’ve never heard it called that before, thanks for sharing at least 👍


I can’t stand cantaloupe. It’s simply too rich and sweet for me, even the smell alone makes me gag.


You must not know anything about brakeless 20" BMX flatland then. Try watching some videos on it, more often than not we’re not even sitting down anyways, the seat is basically just a third handgrip.
Go ahead, check the Matt Wilhelm Warehouse Session, or the JoMoPro 2012 competition. BMX flatland isn’t in any way like normal bicycle riding. When the name of the game has almost nothing to do with sitting on the seat, we play by our own rules.

And a bonus clip, my own custom 1981 Mongoose Supergoose, my main preferred BMX flatland bike, but now the frame has stress cracks so I can’t safely perform tricks on it anymore :(


Nah, the bike is otherwise perfectly aligned for me. Whatever model frame this is under the puke pink paint, the top tube is plenty long enough to give full clearance for my knees. And I’m 5’ 10" tall, still plenty of room for my knees. Apparently this frame is notably longer than the average 20" bike.
I have an exact alignment of all the parts for BMX flatland riding. The center of the hand grips are directly lined up with the steering axis, and the seat is at exactly the height to be on the same plane as the rotation of the handlebars. The seat has to be on the same plane as the handlebars, since the seat doubles as a third handgrip with a number of flatland tricks.
The challenge here was to tweak the weight distribution of the bike to counterbalance my own body weight, the back end of the bike was just too light for me.


Can confirm, this was happening to me over 8 years ago. I just ended up disabling the Google Calendar app. I still know how to use pen and paper…
I didn’t even heat the yogurt, I just left it on top of my microwave for like a week while I went to work. Yeah I know, you’re supposed to heat the stuff up to like 160⁰F or something like that, but I basically just left it at ‘room’ temperature of around 90⁰F for like a week.
And yes it worked haha!
I made my own yogurt once, does that count?
No I’m not even joking, I literally made your.


No, sorry I haven’t…?


Well shit fire and fuck me running!
From the game Redneck Rampage, 1998.


I’ve had the privilege, or curse, however you wanna look at it, to randomly listen to and organize around 26,000 or so songs as best as I could. I managed to organize like 650 complete albums, and that was only like a 20% dent in the entire collection.
I’ve become burned out on everyday music, I like obscure crazy music anymore. Welcome to the Internet…


Those in charge, that approve the continued use of proven faulty software, should take all the blame, after significant faults have been proven anyways.
I mean you have a point, but still, 1+2+3≠15, and a bag of Doritos is not a gun. When AI fucks up this badly, the real guilty parties
(my AI keyboard wanted to replace guilty with gullible BTW, and I’m using the FUTO keyboard no less),
the real guilty parties are the ones in charge that allow such proven faulty systems to continue running for mission critical systems.
Like fuck, a bag of Doritos is not a fucking gun!


So, I think that the open source developers should file a class action lawsuit for stealing their code.
Go ahead, ask Linus Torvalds, I bet he’s not exactly happy with the current trajectory…


Okay, I’ll bite.
What am I missing here NewPerspective?


One can simply decide to never use a gun.
You don’t get that option with AI these days if you simply want to Google something, they force you to use it. Google, Alexa, Siri, fuck our own US government is now using Grok!


I’ll agree with you there, I shot myself in the arm when I was only 3 with a pellet gun. My dad realized his mistake and kept all guns away from me, until age 10, when he took me out to shoot some bottles and cans, and teach me proper gun safety.
Yes that might have been an earlier childhood lesson than many parents might agree to, but he was proper about what and when he taught me. Like, aside from the obvious of keep the gun on safety and never point it at anyone or anything unless you intend to use it, who thinks of things like, don’t lean on a rifle with the barrel in the dirt? The dirt can and will clog the barrel and cause the gun to explode!
Anyways, back on point of AI…
Most parents aren’t just up and giving their kids guns, but major corporations are shoving this AI shit up everyone’s asses, as much as they can anyways, knowing good and well that one AI model says 1+2+3=15 and another AI model is suggesting people suffering pain to use heroin…
So what’s the answer, avoid AI? Well fuck Google then…


The gun isn’t running software in the background when humans are away either. See my other comment, when shit goes sideways, blame the programmers, engineers, and now the CEOs that decided to jam screwy AI up our collective asses…


Now where does this thought come from?
Do you not know what a computer is? It’s literally a digital logical accountant! Yeah yeah, we should probably blame the programmers and engineers instead when shit goes sideways, but now I think we need to also hold CEOs accountable when they decide to inject faulty AI into mission critical systems…
It doesn’t bother me a bit, but it also largely depends on wallet design and pants design. Over the years I’ve figured out an ideal balance for all my pockets…
