Size doesn’t matter. I’m close friends with a dude dating in his 50s and his dick just doesn’t work like it used to after he had a heart attack. The women are usually very understanding and often like the challenge. Someone loving you for who you are wouldn’t even be bothered by something like that as long as it’s about love. And if she physically needs more sometimes, just buy a dildo to help her out. Nothing more or less as if she needs dirty talk. Just oblige and make her happy as she makes you happy.

Why would you buy a new car if you are dead broke?

Yes and there is a heatmap plugin that allows creating heatmaps from daily notes with tags.

Look into obsidian, especially with some community plugins

Nobody considers the risk of them going up in flames at night. They have a temp trip safety, but there is still some risk left. Especially for cheap Chinese power blocks.

This is the way.

Fascists are weird little guys. There is a podcast about that, it’s true.

He can dance if he wants?! Be can leave his friends behind.

This. Did a seminar on these techniques during my it security degree. Porn sites invented that to detect people that use competing sites.

Jup, something is missing in this story.

Jup. My kids play that daily. Great fun

Also turns out bouncing your leg and similar activities are surprisingly good at burning calories.

Gosh. Normal people get an education and learn how these things work. And now you don’t have to trust the government or anybody for that matter because it makes sense and it works.

You don’t have to be a car specialist to know that is you put gasoline in it, it goes if you need it.

An interesting addendum to your question: this is not a exclusively US based phenomenon. In Germany there are the Reichsbürgers they have similar ideas.

They think legally the state has no claim to rule and most people just don’t know they still live in the German Reich still.

So they have their own king selling them passports and they have pretty aggressive group think to try and enforce their claims.

My wife’s dad is one of them. The main thing I recognize comes from a pathological need to know better than everybody else. It’s very tightly coupled to their sense of worth and identity. They are better than everybody else because they have seen the light.

Pretty culty behavior and just enough pseudo truth to keep simple minds saying “yeah there might be something there”. Like “vaccination causes autism, they just don’t want you to know”.

Makes a loser in societies eyes, but a superhuman in their eyes. And yes, they still run into a wall and just keep trying to adjust their angle to hit that sacred sweet spot. Because now they need to prove how they are better and as they already have sacrificed so much they can’t be wrong to continue. (Just like a gambler who already lost a lot.)

So it’s a few psychological dynamics that grip into each other like gears and that ratchet them ever so tightly to their belief until there is no turning back.

Funnily enough I have written a system to do exactly that as a bachelor’s theses for IT security.

Places client certificates and a client inside the initrd and requests securely the key to unlock.

The sever waits for you to approve the request before providing the key. The key is only held in memory during boot.

I had a version that included for a hidden key provider and planned for a version that included time based auto unlocks etc.

I was planning to package that and release it as open source.

Still might do that.

Organic maps imports all business locations from google maps Afaik. Just import your own kml file to drop the pins. Even supports multiple different location markers. Live position tracking included and navigation if you ever want to return. No self hosting required at all.

Let’s not pay the guy that starts working ten years later than everybody else because he needs to study forever to be a competent doctor. Why would we do that, plenty of people willing to work without pay.

Its relevant. Am German, had to find this comment to get that this is about the cost of healthcare xD Germans don’t even think about health as something that costs money. I certainly don’t.

You want to read “stand on Zanzibar” by John Brunner. It’s about an AI that has to accept two opposing conclusions as true at the same time due to humanities nature. ;)

Agreed
