I wasn’t offended, just curious about your visceral reaction.

I think I understand better now, particularly that last bit; I’ve noticed that if I crank up the volume and listen to anything with deep or punchy bass (e.g. hip hop, or metal) that it’s uncomfortable inside my head. Not sure how else to explain that, but I generally use different headphones when I want to experience bass so it’s not a common sensation for me.

People have such varied reactions to stimuli, you’re probably just part of a fraction of the population that has a sensitive vestibular system - which might be related to your superior sense of balance.

Humans are weird. Thanks for the reply.

Welp, time to abandon ship I suppose.

Are you sure they were actual bone-conducting headphones? I’ve seen quite a few offerings on Scamazon and the like that say bone conducting in the listing but aren’t actually bone conducting.

I wear a BC headset for the entirety of my workday with music playing pretty much constantly at a moderate volume and can carry on a conversation just fine without taking them off, and when I’m listening to a focus playlist (instrumentals, no vocals or high energy songs) I don’t even have to pause playback.

Do you get vertigo normally? This is fascinating to me.

I mean, in the 90s we removeded about mostly distant global things because things were pretty good in general for most. And we had time to worry about less-catastrophic domestic things like Mumia or Peltier or what have you.

Now things aren’t so good and we end up removed about far more local things because things around us are so bad.

I’m not sure which hop in the federation chain is censoring random shit but I despise it. I can’t work out what this is supposed to say.

I want an hourly Konsi but I’ll settle for daily.

If this is from the perspective of a hobbyist or brand new Python dev, that’s a fair opinion to have, I suppose.

That said, if you’re using Python in a professional capacity, you really need to learn how to use the toolchain properly.

Python packaging and virtual environments are not difficult to understand, and I’d wager based on your comments elsewhere in this thread that your frustrations are born from not taking the time to understand why following the instructions from a fourteen-year-old blog post aren’t working.

99.99% of the time, the fault isn’t with pip, it’s with the maintainer of the broken package you’re trying to use.

Science disagrees with you

Let me just correct that part real quick:

Professor of theology writes book claiming children are born religious because imagination exists

That’s not science, friend. That’s a guy trying to earn some residual passive income.

Damn it, Norm! You’re supposed to be dead!

Quit screwing around and get back to relaxing in the afterlife, we’ll handle this mess just fine. Or we won’t, and we’ll all see you soon.

I think that’s the purpose of the “next update” part. As long as the ability to refresh that timestamp is gated behind a passphrase (for 5A protection) then it functions as a deadman switch for the canary.

The 😐 button is my favorite part.

Imagine how funny it would be if more than a thousand people replied.

Ironically, if you buy a Google phone (Pixel 6 or later) you can load GrapheneOS and avoid the Google ecosystem entirely.
