I love when I see stuff like this online. As if farming is some luxurious fun time denied us by corporations.
I lived in a subsistence farming community in West Africa for a couple years. Farming isn't easy or fun.
People woke up before the sun every.single.day to go tend to the fields. They stopped working when they were exhausted from being out in the sun all day, or when they were finished with the field. The crops and the weeds grow when they want, not when you want.
If it didn't rain enough, they might starve, or their children might starve. Maybe both. The backbreaking farm labor was literally a gamble with their lives. Occasionally someone would get whacked by a tool and have to ask friends and relatives to farm their crops for them, often at a cost of some of that grain later. If that injury got infected, there's extra days or weeks you're asking someone else to do extra work to cover for you, and you owe them for this.
Everyone harvested crops at about the same time, flooding the market. But people also didn't just want to eat millet alone and wanted things like cooking oil or salt they had to buy. So being strapped for cash, they were forced to sell a lot of harvest up front because they simply couldn't afford to wait any longer for basic needs.
I can go on and on, but if you think being a farmer is so wonderful and amazing, I would encourage you to go do some WWOOFing and spend a few months on a farm and actually doing a real farmer's schedule and not some up at 9, done at 2:30 schedule.
Whether or not the average person will go to a protest is heavily studied in Game Theory.
Unsurprisingly, the consistent finding is that either the person needs to have no risk from attending (lol, facial recognition and Palintir), have no costs to attending, or things have to be otherwise be bad enough that they genuinely think that things can't get worse for them if they attend and change might actually happen if they attend.
So you're telling me the prompt "ChatGPT, take this image and make it look cute and like it was a watercolor painting, but with a very subtle but gargantuan amount of judgement" really worked?
I have a small shop with basics and a seasonal farm stand about 400 meters from me and I walk that for anything I need from there, or another larger but still small shop another 300m past the first one. But selection is limited.
There's a gross supermarket about 2km away, and I wouldn't object to walking that, but I don't think I ever have. In the same amount of time I could drive 4km to the good supermarket or large green market and get better products. I regularly go for 5-7km runs, often past the gross supermarket, so it's more so that if I need something from a supermarket, I would rather do a full shopping trip, or stop at the store or market on the way home from work.
You save it up in a can or a jar and then you have a world of options:
Throw it away
Make soap from it
Throw it away
Use it to season cast iron pots and pans
Throw it away
Cook with it if it's from the last few days
Throw it away
Add it to outdoor dog food in the winter
Throw it away
Soften dry ski-you know what, just throw it away.
To be pedantic, keyboard shortcuts aren't hacks. That's the intended use of the thing, and long lists of keybaord shortcuts exist so that people can find the ones that work for them and use them. Just because most people don't do it doesn't make it a hack.
My favorite keyboard shortcut is Super/Windows key and spacebar switches keyboard languages. That's not a hack, though.
Closer to a "hack" is going into an android phone with ADB and disabling bloatware manually.
I know this was from a week ago, but I just saw something relevant.
There's a rarely used Ancient Greek word, κακοθερής, which means "unsuitable for summer." Most modern people view this as saying there's a word that means you're "bad at summer."
In Modern Greek, the word summer is καλοκαίρι - a compound word that is basically "beautiful weather" used as one word. I couldn't agree more. So I'll just go join my fellow olive oil enjoyers in worshiping the magic of the season.
That's nice to say, but Google doesn't care. They will sign you a shadow profile and still track you across every site with google trackers. Which is most sites. I don't even need to have a Google account for this to poison HELP! their actual db entry.
Thanks, that's helpful. There's a public GTM container ID that is emerged in the JS for the site. So the extension would just (in theory) take that and replace the usual keywords with cheese. That way you can (assuming this works) automate something hitting a few sites every hour hitting serval container and spreading out the culpability.
I tried a few iterations earlier today, and I can't confirm in console if it's working is the thing.
Just start reading subject lines from spam emails.
