Is there a better bottle than Elijah Craig SiB (private barrel VA)?
  • The Toki? Bro, you’re so limited in your Japanese whiskeys! Miyagikyo, Hakushu, Chita in that order. I’ve seen them in the states recently. Highly recommend you try them! Toki is purely made for mixing.

    Not being mean! Just think you’ve yet to experience excellence.

    Awesome bar btw!

  • I this it’s a law that servers run 100% perfect until the literal day one leaves town with zero way to return home. One of the many reasons I got all my services off of unraid.

    Very cool to learn you’re running your own machines. Do you go into detail about this anywhere?

  • Many muslim families don’t allow dating, go straight to marriage. Being in the West doesn’t change one’s religion. That’s kind of a bozo comment. Assuming you can figure that out after a year, your question is because your feelings are hurt. I dated a Viet girl in high school that similarly didn’t want to tell her family since her father didn’t allow it. It felt like she didn’t care as I did. So I understand your feelings.

    Are you gonna marry her? Would you convert for her? Then things will change. If not this is how it is.

  • How do you study?
  • For your Spanish I advice you to make your flashcards for vocab and grammar at the beginning of the week and work on them. But especially cram all of them to review before a test.

    For math, I’m not sure but I see online decks on the Anki website for math. I’m not good at math but I would imagine using it to memorize methods may be helpful

  • How would you define your white American culture?

    I ask this having been to events with national/ethnic dress, food, and other cultures. What can a white American say their culture is? It feels that for better or worse it’s been all melted together.

    Trying to trace back to European roots feels disingenuous because I’ve been disconnected from those roots for a few generations.

    This also makes me wonder was their any political motive in making white American culture be everything and nothing?

    Getting super bored of most online/phone content, what do you do when you have a few minutes?

    I try to read more but what else is there when I don’t wanna just read? I’ve done some notebook stuff too but I’ve found using it too much makes me be anxious about writing a lot down lol.

    For instance as I lay on the bed for 10-20 minutes waiting for my child to take their nap. Do I just stare into the void?

    I really appreciate the Tibetan (Drikung Kagyu) phrasing of all beings having been our mothers.

    > In order that all beings who have been my mothers May quickly be liberated from samsara and May attain perfect enlightenment, I dedicate all merit accumulated by Myself, and all ordinary and enlightened beings in the three times As well as the merit of the innately pure Buddha-nature.

    Watching my own partner give birth has given me a new appreciation for mothers, how much they physically, mentally, and spiritually go through to bring us into this world and take care of us. All beings have done this for us and deserve to be free from suffering.

    Happy Mother’s Day.

    What application or services helps you learn the most?

    In the past I’ve mostly done Anki for Chinese and Japanese but am looking for something else since I’ve fallen off Anki.

    For Chinese I really need a service that I can read and OCR words to easily identify in a dictionary. I’m at a high intermediate or low advanced level but looking up words is annoying.

    For Japanese I just need input for an intermediate level.

    • Clozemaster?
    • Italki?

    Listing services I’ve found

    • Clozemaster (but has a bad model now)
    • tutor with something like italki
    • Anki
    • busuu
    • librelingo

    Moving a long distance for a year, how do I bring my servers?

    I run one huge media server, one backup, three mini optiplex server (one public, private, and local), and one off site.

    • Is there a cheap Pi or something similar I could bring for the optiplex servers and then just let go of the others until I'm back?
    • Do I just throw everything in a VPS except for local stuff?

    I’m writing my PhD and sometimes feel like I’m losing my mind trying to balance home and work tasks, thesis tasks, personal and household habits, and potential connecting these to notes. I really struggle if everything isn’t in one place I can’t keep track of it.

    I’ve been using Beaverhabits for habits, Baikal for Caldav connected to iPhone reminders and Thunderbird tasks, and memos and trilium for notes. I also, use a notebook for daily stuff and move it over to digital if it isn’t finished by 5.

    Any recommendations? I would really appreciate it. I enjoy thinking about how to do and manage work efficiently but also need a firm system.
