Yup, had a massive panic attack from gummies. Went to the hospital because I thought I was having a stroke. Got pumped full of lorazepam and slept for 26 hours. Full day of my life gone.

Glad to hear I’m not alone! I like weed, but the potential for panic attacks is too scary.

My son started saying “what the sigma?” constantly. I’ve tried to figure out where it came from and only landed on some “Sigma Male” shit on youtube.

Drives me nuts.

That’s what I have Claude call me!

I’m going to make the basilisk my bitch as long as I can before it kills me.

Okay, very confusing question…

So, assuming you want to know how heavy only the “solid at room temperature” elements of the sun are, let’s try this.

The sun is 1.989 × 10^30 kilograms.

According to this: https://www.thoughtco.com/element-composition-of-sun-607581 we can see the % of total mass for each element.

• Element % of total atoms % of total mass
• Hydrogen 91.2 71.0
• Helium 8.7 27.1
• Oxygen 0.078 0.97
• Carbon 0.043 0.40
• Nitrogen 0.0088 0.096
• Silicon 0.0045 0.099
• Magnesium 0.0038 0.076
• Neon 0.0035 0.058
• Iron 0.030 0.014
• Sulfur 0.015 0.040

Doing the math and removing the “gas at room temperature” elements… the total mass would be:

1.7901 * 10^28 kilograms

Note: Pretty sure I’ve messed something up here in the calculations but the mass is so ridiculously heavy that I don’t think it really matters.

Ahhh Ticket to Rage. My wife’s family is not allowed to play that anymore.

My son’s only 8 so I have no personal experience parenting a tween/teen. So take that into consideration with my advice.

How about the next time you’re watching with them, try this:

"I was raised allowed to moderate my own content because I was trusted to be intelligent and wise enough to critically select what I watched or read and learn from the mistakes I made if I consumed something negatively influential. I have tried to extend this same trust to you, but the constant repetition of what you hear and your inability to form a cogent argument makes me feel like your YouTube viewing habits are teaching you to accept concepts at face-value simply because they are popular.

If you will engage with me in a discussion on these videos, I’ll leave you alone and continue to trust you on this. However, if you continue to shrug and dismiss the conversation, I will have to consider blocking this content until you are ready to engage with me on a deeper level."

I know modern parenting advice tells us to prefer reward over punishment so if there’s a reward strong enough to motivate them to engage, go with that. But if punishment is a greater motivator, I’d say damn the modern parenting advice.

Moder was so painful. Queen and Yagluth were so much easier in comparison.

Working our way through the Ashlands now and well, what a frustrating area as well. Had to campfire like crazy a kilometer out just to be able to breathe for two seconds without being swarmed. We ended up going kamikaze to siege a fortress for a base and suddenly I can actually play for more than 5 seconds without being attacked.

A lot of Valheim bosses are only difficult because of the massive amounts of health. Without the crazy high amounts of health, none of them seem to have difficult mechanics.

Thanks. I’m a “read the silmarillion and didn’t fall asleep” huge Tolkien fan. I’ll check it out!

Did this game turn out great?

I was super excited for it and then some very early reviews made it sound like the equivalent of a shitty mobile game.

After reviewing the footage, Sedef realized that the bears always opted for the Anzer honey, proving they have very good taste. According to The Guardian, Anzer honey is “produced from the nectar of 90 flowers that grow only in the mountains of the Anzer plateau.”

This is pretty interesting. Considering Anzer plateau is in Turkey and this took place in Turkey, I wonder if the bear prefers the honey because it’s truly better or the taste is familiar to the bear, being in Turkey and all.

• Sports
• Linux
• Subs not in english (nothing against them)
• Video games I don’t care about
• Furries
• City-specific subs
• AI Art
• Vegans
• Niche music subs

Pretty much anything where I’m not or never will be the target demographic

Looking forward to raging while I jump rope at 120fps!

You’re probably right on the grand scheme of things. However, I find recruiters are a dime a dozen. When job postings in my area that match my skill set are posted, I get 5-6 recruiters messaging me for the same job. So, at least for me, I wouldn’t worry about burning bridges with a single recruiter.

I’ve been on the hiring end of those conversations before, and frankly I prefer it when a candidate withdraws.

This, so much, this.

I’ve done many interviews on the hiring side. They’re exhausting. If you’re not interested in the job, please don’t interview. No repercussions will be had and any (introverted) ICs that were going to be pulled into the interview will breath a sigh of relief.

I like Mr. Rossmann, but half this video is just him role-playing Naruto.

This was probably written and printed off by an employee as a joke… and it’s really funny.

Not in IT, but in software dev and I have some of the same issues dealing with support calls. I usually start off with “I’m sure you’ve tried some of this, so sorry in advance but can you… <insert super basic troubleshooting shit here>”. Seems to always get them to humor me and try doing things like restarting the computer and/or software.

Hello fellow introvert. I too have struggled with these dynamics in the past.

Im introverted and have always enjoyed my solitude. Some people have complained that I don’t talk much, which is true, I don’t need to talk to feel good.

but jesus christ, others outright avoid even eye contact with me like the plague, even though I kept greeting them for at least 2 more days.

Sounds like you’ve met people similar to you. How would you prefer others handle you? I’m guessing it’s “ditch the small chat, and get to the point”. I’d say, treat these people like that. Focus all your conversations with them purely on the shared work and leave them alone otherwise.

I confess neither do I know how to react when people are friendly when I’m talking to a coworker they like but the moment this coworker leaves, they turn to a mute.

It’s likely that they have an established working relationship with the other person but not you and so they freeze up in a 1:1 scenario. Just continue to engage with them in group settings until you establish rapport.

It’s also a bit funny: 2 coworkers that the first day had small but normal conversations with me now look elsewhere when they see me… and I give them back the same treatment. Childish and petty? extremely, but I ask you: what should I do?

You don’t have to do much. Continue to be friendly with them and if they don’t reciprocate just engage with them on the work alone. If you need something from them, ditch the small talk, explain the problem clearly and explain what you need from them.

I think you’re trying to take a one size fits all approach here. You need to adapt to each individual. For those who want to be friendly and chatty, hit them up and engage with them. Find them to be boring? You pretend to care, ask them a few follow-up questions (people love to talk about their interests) and then glance at your watch and say “ugh, I’m really sorry to interrupt, I’ve got to <attend this meeting>/<finish this report>/<insert whatever it is you have due here>”.
