donuts, in What do you do when you're hungover?
@donuts@kbin.social avatar

Assuming it's not seriously illegal where you live, substitute alcohol for cannabis, have a great night and wake up rested and refreshed the next morning.

Seems to be less damaging to the body long term too, but that's neither here nor there.

garbagebagel,

I get a terrible headache if I smoke a lot of weed the night before. I also know many people (including myself sometimes) who get really bad anxiety even with just a bit of weed. I like to cannabis but it just has never hit the same as alcohol for me

manapropos,

Best of both worlds: get drunk as hell and smoke up in the morning to get over the hangover

CmdrShepard,

Don’t forget to grab some pho for the morning after. This is the holy trifecta.

Psythik,

I like to get drunk as hell and then smoke up the same night. It used to give me a bad case of the spins in my 20s but these days it’s fine. Plus the weed keeps me from drinking too much to the point of hangover, cause the moment it kicks in I lose all desire to drink.

manapropos,

I like doing it when I’m just by myself. If I’m at a party and get crossfaded I just turn into a mute

son_named_bort, in What popular quote are you tired of hearing?

“This hurts me more than it hurts you”

No, I’m pretty sure being spanked hurts more than doing the spanking.

MimicJar,
@MimicJar@lemmy.world avatar

Being spanked is physical harm, vs doing the spanking is emotional harm. The argument is that emotional is more harmful than physical.

Of course this ignores that being spanked very likely also inflicts emotional harm. It also ignores that emotional harm isn’t a scale.

skozzii, in What popular quote are you tired of hearing?

Whenever “woke” is brought up.

Please give me your definition of woke, because so far it’s been different for everyone I’ve talked to.

I like this Little Joel video about how conservatives use “woke”

sparky678348,

Imo woke means aware

13esq,

That’s what it should mean, but it usually implies political awareness specifically and has been hijacked by several minority groups and their allies to imply that they are wholly in support of whatever the latest minority issue is.

You haven’t heard of lgbtbbqx+? I have because I’m woke!

sparky678348,

“You haven’t heard of lgbtbbqx+? I have because I’m aware!”

Duamerthrax,

It was originally used by African American groups to describe white allies at the beginning of the last century.

It’s evolved to describe any out group that’s aware of an in group’s problems.

It’s been contorted be this decade’s scare word that conservative media uses.

optissima,

My baby was too woke last night and kept me up.

No_Ones_Slick_Like_Gaston,

Baby is woke AF, just Channel that energy to fight the right fights.

One hard drive on site. One hard drive off site. Rotate regularly.

    Ah yes, the famous quote “nazi.”

    pizzazz, in What popular quote are you tired of hearing?

    “Galileo too was ostracized for his beliefs, but he was right”

    Yeah but he did science, not that new age bullshit you think are an expert in.

    CoggyMcFee,

    They laughed at Columbus, they laughed at Fulton, they laughed at the Wright brothers. But they also laughed at Bozo the Clown.

    —Carl Sagan

    ForgotAboutDre,

    Columbus thought the world was pear shaped. Meaning it was viable to get to India by going west. If the Americas didn’t exist he would have died.

    It was well known at the time that the world was round. The ancient Greeks had a very good calculation if the circumference of the earth.

    sonovebitch, in What do you use to backup all your photos and documents, cloud or external drive or both?

    When I reached Google Photos max capacity, I invested in a good 4 bay Synology NAS with 16TB. I left the old photos and documents in Google Cloud but all new ones go to the NAS.

    I’m really happy with the NAS. I’m aware I could have saved money with a homebuilt one, but I wasn’t botheres tinkering.

    tigeruppercut, in What popular quote are you tired of hearing?

    I guess you don’t see it too much these days (outside of maybe yearbooks or collections of inspirational quotes), but Frost’s “I took the one less traveled by,/And that has made all the difference.”

    If you read the rest of the poem the narrator explicitly states in several different ways that the roads are pretty much the same. So the narrator is saying that by later on saying the roads are different he’ll be retroactively be justifying his choice or just not telling the truth about it.

    Bilbo,

    Even after rereading the poem I had to read the Wikipedia analysis section to be convinced you are right. It’s a very subtle poem, which, honestly, just makes it better.

    tigeruppercut,

    I always thought the confusion came from just seeing the last two lines out of context, because the poem itself has descriptions like “Then took the other, just as fair”, “Had worn them really about the same”, and “both that morning equally lay”. It seemed like Frost was really hammering home the equality, considering 15% (3/20) of the lines are talking about the similarities.

    Bilbo,

    That’s the thing. Being just as fair doesn’t necessarily imply it’s equally travelled. Even being worn the same doesn’t necessarily mean equally traveled, although it strongly implies it. I think the final line is so certain that it overrides the earlier lines and implies to the unwary reader that these similar paths actually were differently travelled.

    I don’t expect self contradiction in a story / poem. So that certainty of there being a difference overrides all.

    It’s only after reading the author’s intentions that I know for sure that the contradiction was intended and that was actually the point of the poem.

    As I said before, this makes me like the poem even more now.

    hperrin, in What do you use to backup all your photos and documents, cloud or external drive or both?

    I have a server in the garage with a big RAID array, and I run a Nephele WebDAV server on it. All my PCs, and my family’s PCs back up to it every 3 days.

    It also streams all my movies and TV shows on a Jellyfin server.

    Also, to be extra cautious, I have a server at my in laws’ house with a 20TB hard drive that I periodically sync that RAID array to.

    (Full disclosure: I am the author of Nephele.)

    droidpenguin, in Can anyone recommend terrible horror films?

    Monster Island (2004). I think you’ll find it lives up to being so stupid it’s great.

    wantd2B1ofthestrokes, (edited ) in What do you use to backup all your photos and documents, cloud or external drive or both?

    Backup to Synology Photos / Drive which backs up to AWS Glacier

    Granixo, in What do you use to backup all your photos and documents, cloud or external drive or both?
    @Granixo@feddit.cl avatar

    Both.

    Though i don’t really care if the HDD is external or internal, just that it stores data physically.

    Speculater, in What's the most unique role model you've heard that was a green flag?
    @Speculater@lemmy.world avatar

    Watching someone fuck something up, research, a video game, a car repair, that costs them a lot of time and took a ton of effort, then just laughing and going with the after math. It tells a lot about your character when something doesn’t go your way.

    RampageDon,

    They asked for role models, not just any random green flags.

    Speculater,
    @Speculater@lemmy.world avatar

    Ah, I was responding to the green flags part.

    new_guy, in How is your part of the world doing?

    Brazil.

    60 years ago we entered in a military regime that destroyed our economy and lasted for about 30.

    Last year we almost did the same thing again. So yeah… Things looking nice since they weren’t successfull this time.

    Everythingispenguins,

    It is the little wins that keep life worth living lol

    Seriously I was pretty happy to see you all pull that one out of the fire. I really hope that it can stay that way for you all.
