How to buy from Google and still think you’re an anarchist😎

Be that crazy geezer running 5k theough the snow in his 80s!
That’s my plan at least, I’m not going away easily

It’s probably said from the point, that something that was, theough changes, becomes less that. So, more nothing, in a way.
But really, I love philosophyzing, but I’m not calling it a job. It’s like a monk is just sitting there chilling, but if you confront him about not working, he will answer: “bitch, it took me years to learn chilling that hard!”

Right now, it looks like it’s mostly usb-c everything (with “the more watts, the better”, and the apple stuff being generally compliant becaus of the legislation pressure, but really not because their stuff is (intentionally) not completely working the same way. There’s also a minority of “just shitty chargers and cables”, but I’m speaking of brand-name space

Well, I’m all for universally easy things and a consumer not being stressed, but if we really got to the “I don’t get basic numbers” territory, then go learn some school physics, and maybe that Volts is the pressure in the pipe, Amps is how fast the water flows through it, and Watts is just pressure times flow rate - it’s that simple. Go and fucking learn what is what, there’s enough information in my comment alone.

I mean, it’s not 20 of them like the picture suggests - it’s like 2 or 3 depending on what yoou have. And I have laptop chargers everywhere, and a good powerbank, so I’m covered. And I also have a GaN universal hub with several plugs, so I can plug in US or EU and have a lot of watts coming onnthe other side. So I feel like the chargers war is over and now we can just use stuff.

Oh, my powerbank charges my laptop through the high-power usb specifically marked “PD”, and that usb doesn’t charge my bike lights - the other “usual” 15w ones do. And many usb hubs also have something like this written on them.
What I’m saying is that I’m only against the picture showing 20 Usb-c ports telling that they are all different. I would divide slots and cables in 3 groups:

• “oh, this one doesn’t show fast charging”,
• “yay, this one supports fast charging”,
• and “this thing has “100000W” written on it and it charges my laptop”.
  And you usually can easily distinguish them. Like, a thin cable probably won’t do the fast charging thing

I have different work Thinkpads from 2019, so probably the first one was 2018 or 2017 generation. And they accepted whatever laptop usb charger (ok, most of them were also Lenovos, but some generic stuff our IT was ordering from Amazon as well)
My current T14 works with my AliExpress 120w powerbank.
Probably good to rely on brands who don’t mess with standards

All devices now have chips that do a handshake with the charger, exchanging information about supported standards and charging using the best common option. So I charge my prohe with a 90W laptop charger, even when it is unable to use the whole wattage

Uhh, I was born there :)
Also, a lot of household stuff makers just continued making products with oldschool packaging, because it was easily recognizable. So if in the USSR you had THE condensed milk in iconic packaging, now you would have many condensed milk brands, but most of them having some kind of variations of the og package. I even have a magnet with it

FYI, the package is styled as a soviet baking soda pack

Yep
And also I have to rewatch Lebowski now

I mean, if you create any precedent of prosecuting someone over “bad words”, you are fucked long-term

Putin and his friends absolutely deserve to die. I’m not really killing anyone, but I can say that (well, outside of Russia, because freedom of speech doesn’t work there). Freedom of speech allows me to say how exactly I don’t like him and his gang.
Also, from reading about cases where people were jailed for something they have said - if it’s allowed to prosecute people for anything, somebody might try to mess with your words to make you look guilty. For example, the law regarding “rehabilitating nazism” was used to prosecute people who were saying something about USSR working with nazi Germany in the beginning of WW2, or similar. Examples (sorry, too long to type so It’s llm summaries:

• A person in Perm was fined 200,000 rubles for sharing an article that mentioned the “joint attack on Poland by the USSR and Germany” in 1939, which the authorities portrayed as “rehabilitating Nazism.”
• A woman in Smolensk was fined for posting a historical photo of her home under Nazi occupation, where a Wehrmacht flag and soldiers appeared in the background.

So if you make a word or a concept “bad”, someone will try to use it maliciously, at some point. It doesn’t help when court is not independent, that opens up a road to charging many people you don’t like on daily basis.

Who “they”? Security services are not the hive, It’s not like everyone knows everything pr never misses anything. Or do you think it’s like a game where you unlock the “passive listening device countermeasures” technology and suddenly 100% bugs across the country are found and new bugs can’t be planted?

ah, so the first plus the second knot are forming one of those two you linked to?

All my life, I was tying the knot “wrong side up”, so it was untying. I was checking out a videonon how to tie high boots the easiest way, and the problem was mentioned. Now nothing ever happens to them.
It’s hard to explain in details, so here’s a quick check if your shoes are untying themselves. When you start tying, you hold two loops in your hands and cross them, putting one above the other, right? Well, this time, put them the other way around (left on right if it was right on left), and finish the same way you always did it.
You will immediately feel that the knot is not slipping. This is because you also do the first simple knot in a certain way, and first and the main knot has to be different relative to each other

Joint is when it’s too hot and too much with my low tolerance. I need a couple hits, so not my choice.
Pipe is hot smoke, so meh. Last resort option, for when you go somewhere and want it to fit into a pocket.
Bong is a sweet spot - not hot, and you can put however much you want.
For all the three, effect is the same, so only really depends on how much you smoke.
Edibles: for me the effect is slower and more even throughout the time. And if you make edibles yourself it’s kinda waste of product because some of the wffect is lost when you cook stuff (bake brownies, etc). But is the best option for non-smokers.
There is also an option of mixing tobacco and weed/hash with tobacco in a usual cigarette, it was a good way to not have a full joint of weed for me, but I quit smoking years ago and I don’t want to accidentally get back to it.

Oh, I just went “full 5 bucks a month” into Kagi - it is great, I haven’t used a useful (non-ai-first) websearch for a while
