Presidents of the United States of America - Peaches. Who wouldn’t want to see a musical comedy with ninjas?

Instant ramen. Or if I’m feeling fancy, ramen that takes 6 whole minutes to cook

I read that as “the tool to report websites is broken.”

Mayonnaise sandwich. Or mayo squirted directly on a Ritz cracker.

We call this a “load-bearing could.” Or, “could is doing a lot of work in that sentence.” I mean, sure, it could, in the same sense that angry ticks could fire out of my nipples.

When AI starts telling us how to efficiently manufacture these new materials, now that would be revolutionary.

Yeah, it will help and it won’t. If you’re uploading through a typical cable internet connection, WiFi will almost never be the bottleneck. But if you’re streaming 4k in a part of your house that doesn’t have good coverage while other people use the same connection, it could make a difference.

I do a lot of streaming from my desktop to my TVs and I occasionally have bandwidth problems, so this could help that. And I have 300 up / 300 down fiber Internet, and in parts of my house I have problems getting anywhere close to that on WiFi. So WiFi 7 might help with those cases even if in the end your ISP is usually the bottleneck.

Something that helped me is setting smaller goals, like studying just a little before taking a break. If I ordinarily study for 0 minutes and screw around for an hour, I’d try to study for 5 minutes and screw around for 55 minutes. Smaller goals are more achievable and take the pressure off. Then you can build on that small success instead of feeling like it has to be all or nothing.

We just got 2 new Carrier Infinity 24 heat pumps and I don’t think I’ve ever heard them running (except for the fan pushing air through the ducts, but that’s part of a traditional furnace too). It’s an expensive system that is advertised as being particularly quiet, and I think they deliver - I haven’t noticed any change in noise levels. One of them had an issue for a while so we ran the backup gas furnace instead, and I couldn’t tell the difference between the one that was using the heat pump and the one that was using gas.

So it’s possible to get a quiet heat pump, depending on the model.

If I’m thinking about the future and it’ll take just a minute or two, I’ll do it right then. If it’ll take lots of time I’ll put a task on my calendar for another day and deal with it then, then get back to living my life (well, posting memes, but I didn’t come here to be judged). Now planning has a time but I don’t have to think about it until then.

Some of my more intelligent friends were punching holes in drywall. Sure enough one poor guy found the stud and fucked up his wrist so badly he has a metal pin in it now.
