A reasonable concern but also a shame, because data is data and PornHub has a massive userbase. I trust Backblaze stats for hard drives because they just have a shit-ton of real-world metrics. I’m inclined to trust PornHub stats for the same reason.

How alone am I in disliking the word “allistic”? To me it feels like an outgrowth of a persecution fetish, literally defining an outgroup. Especially since it has zero mainstream adoption, where “non-autistic” is immediately clear to anyone.

I think this is funny, but it’s hard for me to hate too much on flatpaks. Disk space is practically free now, and having spent a good chunk of my career fighting DLL hell, I have a lot of sympathy for the problem it’s trying to solve.

Monoprice for cables.

Any curry dish is a relative of the porta-potty to me.

I want to be a Lore but I’m just an Odo.

Strewn across the ground were empty food containers and survival books

Please master the survival books before returning to monke.

I never understood why anyone was on it in the first place, unless it was to read Dril’s tweets, and you can buy those in books now.

Measuring galvanic skin resistance isn’t bullshit. But it’s certainly not telling them what they claim it does.

Devices of that type are usually advertised to consumers as biofeedback machines and used for detecting autonomic sympathetic arousal to train the user to control anxiety.

Because of the harsh consequences in Scientology of failing an auditing session, Scientologists also to learn to control their responses when they’re on a meter. In effect, users can train themselves to lie to it. This is how they end up with those stares that are somehow both intense and vacant.

Bothering other people is the point, making their religion an expected part of the landscape.

I’d like to see some absolute numbers before I panic about percentages. 12 people instead of 10 is a 20% increase.

I was slogging my way through TOS season 2 this week and had to go watch TNG for a while to be rejuvenated by a captain who actually listens to his officers.
