Thanks for the playground conversation content.

I've had these. Weirdly tastes like sparkling water.

slop ad for a slop app. trying to hide the clanker speak in all lowercase and slang is really fucking gross.

This works but it potentially needs tuning to work well, including setting ssh options for keep alives and reconnection. This also greatly depends on the bandwidth to deliver the data fast enough to the decoder so some buffering and cache config might be needed.

Yeah, exactly. I also don't know how common it is in other languages for slang/shorthand to match letter/word sounds. This is probably in the same bucket as languages having different animal sounds.

EDIT: What's hilarious is that in my neck of the woods I learned this as "ducks" instead of "snakes" almost almost 40 years ago at this point.

Thanks! I had just been lazy enough to add a to blank tab. This is much easier and obviously better.

Actually, if you're two or three deep and nothing is happening after a long enough time, you might be genetically deficient and unable to metabolize the good stuff.

Ehh, this feels like some kinda survivorship bias / frequency fallacy. I'd argue the people that post and leave comments on social media are already way outside of the norm. It is a power law distribution when it comes to social media participation. Your outliers in this case are very likely outliers in other ways such as in opinions/thinking, risk taking, etc. Drugs really aren't all that normalized. Sure all my friend circle is full of degenerates, but I am still going to be guarded about my "hobbies" when meeting new people.
