“How to wreck a nice beach”

I’ve always felt discord was way too ephemeral and caused a lot of question to be re-asked over and over.

Well, that’s a very interesting take on that and I never quite thought of it that way. Thank you

I’ve got a great example. My wife and I argue about directions all the time. I usually think Google and Apple maps are going to give me the quickest route because it’s an algorithm based on more data than I currently have like traffic and current road conditions. She’s usually all about her “gut” feeling and it involves these very convoluted paths that involve way too many extra intersections and very unknown conditions like others thinking the exact same thing and making it way more congested. I wasn’t even going to get into things like game theory since that would be way over her head. She very smart just not about nerdy things like that. Anyway I was like fine, ok let’s test it. Let’s see which way is quicker. Of course no two situations are going to be exact given changing variables like traffic patterns, times of day, construction, etc. but given enough data we could definitely prove which way is better: her gut feeling or taking the suggested route from the appropriate app. That’s science. Come up with a hypothesis, then a method to test the hypothesis, and then do the test. In this case it’s pretty simple to figure out if it works. You’re just comparing times. But nope, doesn’t wanna do it. And she’s all about the science. During COVID she even said we should be doing what the epidemiologists and doctors suggest since they “have done the science”. Here’s a chance for use to do a very simple version of that same thing.

I think it might be from a SpongeBob SquarePants meme. You might wanna start there. Not sure why that’s tickling my brain.

Oh and I just found this: https://knowyourmeme.com/editorials/guides/whats-erm-what-the-sigma-meme-about-the-catchphrase-and-overstimulation-video-explained

So it looks like started as a TikTok thing and then spread into the SpongeBob world.

I’m not sure why my ADHD brain latched on to this question but I HAD to find the answer. I don’t know if this is definitive but it’s at least a direction.

Well I have a pretty good idea where you live :) (I used to live in Brentwood)

I’m too embarrassed to admit how long this took me.

I tried it once. It didn’t go well

Yeah I think this an mSATA port.

Edit: on second glance I think the right part of the connector has too many pins.

Fuck… guess I’m old too. Not sure when that happened.

2 is the coolest tech wise but least female friendly. The 50s thing could be cool … maybe a 50s diner as another idea. Me personally I’ve always wanted to do a 1980s arcade theme. I also think a madmen type man cave could also be cool.

Thank you. I listen to that when I need motivation. Especially “No time for caution”

Ease of grabbing content. There are so many tools that make it too easy and automated. I mean this has changed drastically in the last 10 years let alone 90s.

I was looking for Saddam Hussein in the tomatoes.

I am so glad I wasn’t drinking something when I read that.

Yep you nailed it. And flipping through the channels we could never seem to not stop on it, hence the reason we’ve probably watched the ending maybe 50-60 times usually starting at random places.

Strangely enough Shawshank Redemption

Which is why I avoid group chats….
