No, it just feels like that because you can't keep it up anymore.

Not new, but my biggest one is physically placing things I need to remember in the path of my daily routine. Like if I need to remember to bring my laptop to work, I might put my computer mouse in my shoe.

Another one is moving things in stages. If I'm cleaning my living room and something needs to go upstairs, I'll just leave it on the stairs for the next time I go up. Otherwise I'm likely to get distracted when I get up there and forget to continue cleaning downstairs.

I also try to have multiples of things that I use in multiple rooms or places. Like a small trashcan in all my rooms so I don't have to go somewhere else to throw it away. It minimizes distractions and helps me stay focused on the current task.

As a side note, there were babies on that plane in those temperatures for that long!?

That was my thought too, that's deadly for babies and children. I'm astounded.

It concerns me that we're seeing this more and more in industry. Middle fingers to regulations because when you have enough money, it doesn't matter.

For the curious:

Speaking to MailOnline, Willot confirmed this 'was indeed a tricky procedure. They are very reactive and won't stop struggling once caught, preventing any shaving attempt if not anaesthetised.'

This was done by exposing the ants for a few seconds to carbon dioxide, then strapping them down firmly.

Hairs were removed using a high-power binocular telescope and a very sharp blade.

'It's the same as shaving your own chin: the scalpel blade has to move in the opposite direction of the hair's growth. It has to be a delicate and gentle motion,' said Willot.

After practising on large soldier ants, he found that a smaller worker ant could be entirely shaved in an hour of delicate work.

He estimates around 40 ants were shaved altogether to produce seven good examples for the experiments.

The youngest of the patients at Alcor is two-year-old Matheryn Naovaratpong, a Thai girl with brain cancer, who was cryopreserved in 2015, reports Reuters.

“Both her parents were doctors, and she had multiple brain surgeries,” More tells the publication. “Nothing worked, unfortunately. So, they contacted us.”

This is a bit chilling. How do you begin to move on with your lifeif you're holding out hope that your loved one will be revived one day? What happens to this girl's body once her parents die? What happens if they beat the odds and master cryo and the girl gets revived in 100 years? That sounds incredibly traumatic.

This article does a pretty good job of explaining why it's not a good thing.

I'm primarily a lurker. I've been trying to be better about participating lately because I'd like to help the fediverse grow and be a meaningful online meeting place.

On mobile, the link kicked me to a different post. https://www.reddit.com/r/BotDefense/comments/14riw76/botdefense_is_wrapping_up_operations/

From the post: TL;DR With the API changes now in place, we no longer believe we can effectively perform our mission so we are sunsetting BotDefense. We recommend keeping BotDefense on as a moderator through October 3rd so any unbans can be processed.

Why are they collecting financial information??

I’m not going to insult people for being ignorant about something, because that’s literally the default state of being a person.

Well stated. I try to keep this in mind, or assume this until proven otherwise.

I kind of want all the users to wipe their comments and burn it down like the library of Alexandria. Then spez can't mine it for AI.

I hate losing the window into humanity, but it would be insanely satisfying to watch the fire burn.
