picked up No Man’s Sky the other week at 50% off and really enjoying it

heh, I can also hear myself blink sometimes in a quiet room. my thyroid tests are inconclusive though.

have you considered getting your thyroid checked? anecdotal evidence, a former colleague mentioned they had thyroid issues (on the hyper side) and could hear their pulse in their head before solving it. somehow that bit of info stuck with me

Surprised it’s not Nessie

I’ve no idea on the relockable bootloader support with self signed keys. Though I do remember reading at some point from some lad ranting about why it’s a bad idea to relock, and seemed to make sense, so I didn’t look further into the matter. The post was on the… ehm… other website.

Aye, they have unlockable bootloaders and sony also provides instructions and firmware needed to build your own AOSP if that’s your pleasure. I just went the lineageOS way.

That’s a damn shame. I really liked their phones, their only downside, I think, was the crap support - they only give 2 years of updates. But with lineage that is no longer an issue.

In the southeast of Ireland I’ve heard it ‘bodder’, almost like the Danish soft d instead of the th, but it was just a couple of guys so maybe the sample size is a bit off.

Have you looked at what sony has to offer? They latest xperia had a headphone jack, sd card and I believe lineageOS support.

i installed lineageOS on an xperia 5 ii, so older model, and seems to be going strong. got latest update 1 week ago.

Ha. Today I learned. I read it in a Scottish tone, seemed to fit

I’m also a fan of the Scottish way.

A close second is the ‘no bodder’ from Ireland.

Fully agree with you there. I can never fully relax around family and it’d probably be a nightmare living with them.

Right back at you, fellow hobby and eldricht horror appreciator!

Aside from the Shub-Niggurath worship (I’m more of an Azathoth person, myself), I agree with most things here. I’d just add to the list, group B I guess:

• aquatic animal husbandry and aquascaping (freshwater preferably, saltwater if you are really masochistic and have money to burn on corals and expensive equipment)
• model railroading

I feel these are more ‘apex’ hobbies, wherein you need a bit of everything (chemistry, electronics, an artistic sense, lots of patience) and they will occupy most of your time. You’d think electronics and aquaria are not the closest things, but just you wait until you feel the need to build an LED lamp with simulated day/night cycles and moonlight, controlled by an arduino.

The barrier to entry is fairly low - there are starter sets available and I’ve found that hobby shops of this sort are usually staffed by very knowledgeable people, eager to help newcomers. And, you can go as deep as you want and still have fun. You will also learn an absolute fuckton of things about what you choose to model with your hobby.

An honorable mention for homebrewing, which I don’t even regard as a hobby at this point, but more of a necessity, like cooking.

using a microwave is the only way I can actually cook rice perfectly. I don’t own a rice cooker and stovetop is just a sticky mess

I don’t know what minerals they place in the packets exactly, but some salts tend to be very sensitive to moisture and attract moisture from the atmosphere (more so than sugar or table salt). Kept in a paper satchel, which is permeable to moisture, they could potentially absorb enough moisture to become a wet goopy mess in a paper packet. So my guess is that they use plastic for stability reasons of their mix. Sure, they could sell it in glass jars with a measuring spoon, I guess.

I am afraid to ask this but what cavities are you referring to? Do biohackers feel the need for more cavities usually?

I remember reading on that other site at some point about airline pilots and the ‘guard’ channel which is supposedly used for shitposts. Any pilot on here that can confirm? This about the discipline of airline pilots.

you’re fighting a losing battle. ‘having kids is a good thing’ is the only piece of propaganda that is distributed to probably every human. and probably the oldest one, too. it’s also a base instinct, sort of hard to override by reasoning, as anyone who’s ever been horny or hungry can probably attest. this is probably the best example on here related to the posted question.

for what it’s worth, I do think you are correct
