I know DHH is incredibly controversial, but they (37signals) make some of the best software I’ve ever used. And they actually listen to their customers.

Thought it was 3M who sold it as a product to DuPont.

I’m pretty sure that inactivity fee thing is outright illegal in the US. It was made so sometime last decade. I think.

Yeah I’d like to find it though so I don’t sound like I’m just spewing conspiracy shit out of my ass. Lots of people think that LLMs just regurgitate what they’ve trained on, but it’s been proven not to be the case several times now. (I know that LLMs are quite ‘terrible’ in many ways, but people seem to think they’re not as capable and dangerous as they actually are). Maybe I’ll find the study again at some point…

I was trying to call out that dude as an idiot without getting flamed for it. Seems like they’re doing a great job of flaming themselves though. I knew it wasn’t abandoned.

Even with dispersed camping (which is not at designated sites) you can still drive to them. We do so all the time. They’re very popular here in Colorado. We literally take a 27 foot popup camper there, my brother in law brings his toy-hauler, my in laws bring their class c. And you just drive right up and camp. There’s no marked site, it’s just dispersed.

Just yesterday I got back from a trip at a designated campsite, which was marked, and you were not allowed to camp outside of 100ft of the marker. Notably this was a bit further up the road from an actual campsite, which had rules about hours, restroom use, no equines, no dogs off leash etc. and the sites were maintained spots with gravel etc.

So there’s three levels, and dispersed is just the ‘free-est’ of them all, but it has no bearing on whether you can drive up and plop down a camper or not.

moisture wetness caused by water

water is wet. water contains moisture, because water is moisture.

Or you can go the chemical route, which is so eloquently put by Professor Richard Saykally:

they’d say, “Strong tetrahedral hydrogen bonding!” But that’s the correct answer. That’s what makes water wet.

Or if you’re more into videos you can watch an entire lecture on it. https://vimeo.com/11854837

Because water is fucking wet.

Assuming that they went out to look for it, and didn’t just poke google with (“sqlite hacked my computer”) until they found a phone number.

and how in the world did they know to type the word “sqlite” in. Dude, the files are in the temp folder. The only way they know the name “sqlite” is if they literally visited the folder and looked there.

I’m not really sure what you’re arguing here… Heroin (from my googling) is like 15-20 bucks for a tenth of a gram. And also from googling it looks like it can cost users $150-$200 a day.

I go to therapy. I’ve gone to a bunch of different therapists. I go twice a month and it’s $150 a session. You don’t need therapists to “be in network” for you to go to them. And $300 a month is way cheaper than $4500 a month, no matter what way you split it.

Which like, isn’t to say that heroin is a good alternative. It’s just that when someone has a $20 in their pocket and they can either spend it on a single therapy session that may or may not be beneficial to them (or can even be retraumatizing) or they can spend it on a bag of heroin that will for sure get them high and make them feel better right now, it’s not hard to see why some people are going to choose the latter.

In regards to this, I’m pretty sure that the second you think of taking heroin you’re screwed. It commonly results in addiction after only a single try. My point is that don’t ever think of heroin as the solution, because the cost of therapy is not the problem.
