What's something you want to stop doing but can't actually stop?
  • Not to downplay your issue but I kinda wish I had something like this right now. I've been dealing with a lot of anxiety recently, to the point where my brain feels like it's short circuiting. I wish I had places I could go in my mind to escape.

  • How does it feel being in a relationship?
  • I want to give an honest answer here. I am in a relationship of 10 years and there are a couple points worth making upfront. Sex doesn't make a relationship - not everyone feels this way but you can have a loving relationship without it. Children are not something I've ever personally wanted so I can't attest to that. That being said, being in a relationship is overall good for me. It has made me do things and go places that my introverted self would have never done or gone to in the first place.

    More importantly than any of that, don't give up hope that you'll find someone. It may not be tomorrow, it may not be this year, but if you keep believing that you'll be alone indefinitely then you might just manifest it. I can't exactly give tips on how to meet people - being an introvert and out of the dating pool for so long means any direct experience is not very relevant, but I can say try to meet new people and see who you jive with. I think relationships are probably easiest to foster through shared experiences and meaningful connections, so if you can find a group of people that share a common hobby/passion, that might be a good place to start.

  • What are some popular fermented sauces in your area?
  • I make a big batch of fermented hot sauce every year around the holidays and give them out as gifts; it seems to always be a hit.

    I pretty much follow the same recipe and process that you mentioned, but I never have gone above 3% salt. I wouldn't have expected up to 6% (let alone 10%) to allow the acid producing bacteria to survive, but I guess they're pretty tolerant.

  • Antimemes rule
  • I had to look this up to verify that these are not only real styles, but there are/were some individuals had the gall to make other people consider these awful indentation styles. Of course it was only the C gods themselves to actually come up with something both readable and aesthetically pleasing.

    All joking aside, I'd have to imagine some of these make more sense when applied to languages other than C. Even still, there is clearly one true winner in my book.

  • 0% defrost speedrun rule
  • Ah yes, because those are definitely viable options for everyone. Sarcasm aside, I'm not saying that these aren't the ideal modes of transport, but they simply aren't viable options for a large portion of people (including me).

  • The shady world of Brave selling copyrighted data for AI training
  • Firefox has been super good for me as well. I switched from Chrome a few years ago and initially had the occasional issue, but thinking about it now I can't recall the last time I had an issue with Firefox that forced me to use another browser.
