  • I can sort of relate. I'm fat as fuck, but I really like salads and veggies. When I go out to eat, my (much smaller) partner will order like a steak and potatoes, and I might order like a chicken cobb salad, not because I'm dieting, but I because I really wanted a dinner salad. And like half the time they give the salad to my partner and give me the steak.

  • I recently became aware of the "performative male" stereotype. Basically, if you're a guy who doesn't dress the way most men dress and you like to read books in public, you're just "performing" in order to attract women.

    I think it's the whole anti-intellectualism aspect of the stereotype that irks me the most (it being shameful somehow for a guy to read).

    In some cases Tik-Tokers are filming guys just sitting alone at like a Starbucks reading a book, bothering nobody, and acting like they caught a predator.

    It reminds me of that old Bill Hicks anecdote where he's at a diner in the deep south reading a book, and some dude exclaims "looks we got a reader!" as if it were something peculiar.

    Here's a good critique of it if you're OOTL https://youtube.com/watch?v=b3jIgdbVjr4

  • DoorDasher in Indiana arrested for allegedly pepper-spraying delivery

    Jump

  • Did she open up the packaging and spray directly on the food? Article doesn't say that. Usually food delivery comes in a bag that's stapled or taped shut, and the items in the bag are in their own closed containers, except maybe for fries. I'm just not clear on how the spray could have gotten onto the food.

    I just found out that Claude Pro can't be trusted to do anything related to songwriting. Just look at the screenshot.

  • G to E is a major sixth, not a major seventh. That's the mistake. It then misidentifies the chord because of this.

  • Yeah, with chords you generally try to mentally rearrange the notes such that they stack in thirds from bottom to top in the process of identifying the chord.

  • I bought a Pentium II 450Mhz Dell tower for $40 at a flea market recently. It was in great condition except for missing a hard drive. Installed a 32gb ssd with a SATA to IDE converter kit and installed Windows 98. It works! This was my first time doing something like this.

    Looking for a good graphics card now. I want a VooDoo 2 but those are like $300 on ebay.

  • AirTags. I have 7. One for my keys, a Find My compatible third party card shaped one for my MagSafe wallet (also third party), one for my second wallet, and the rest for my bags and suitcases. They have saved me so many times.
