Yeah that's literally getting to leave with a parade and arriving to being an instant celebrity.

This human being was around 3,000 years ago! They've traveled deep space through hypersleep! What mysteries do they have of the long forgotten and ancient past to reveal to us?

Also, here's all of your space credits from the $1.67 you left in your savings account. You're now a multi-trillionaire.

Tesofensine is an antidepressant with weight loss effects that can be purchased online without a prescription for research purposes.

It's fairly expensive, usually running about $250 for a one month supply, but if you need a temporary break from your depression then it might work for you.

However, because it is a research chemical, all of the side effects of the chemical are not known and you would be taking a risk in using it even for a short period of time.

Chances are it is likely safe but there is still a risk and you have to weigh that against your mental health and your finances and the costs and difficulty associated with getting put on a traditional antidepressant prescribed to you by a competent doctor.

I'm not paying 5 cents to read an article unless I know in writing that 4.95 of them are going to the human person who wrote it.

They get multimillions of hits a day on a mere dozens of articles. Economy of scale works both ways.

What they should do is offer a tier system through your internet provider. $10/$20/$50 a month and you get access to tiers of services without ads or tracking other than tracking that you used the site.

Americans will use anything to avoid the metric system

When I read those things I always assume they're talking about megawatt hours.

Considering that the average american home consumes a little under 1000 kilowatt hours a month then the math starts to line up.

1000 KW hours is 1 megawatt hour. 1,000 megawatt hours is 1 gigawatt hour, so 1,000 months, while being a bit shy of 100 years, is still 83 years and change.

I used to use VLC. I still do, but I used to, too.

Because solar would be less resource intensive than fusion, at least for the first long while.

Even if we get fusion to work it's going to be quite a while to go from working fusion to working fusion in your neighborhood.

I would say it's optimism.

I'm in a similar boat, maybe a few steps further down the line than you but not that far.

Something that is really fun is getting a dynamic DNS set up with duckdns, and then put a certificate on it from certbot and then give all of your containers and self-hosted servers am SSL certificate and name using nginx reverse proxy.

If you do that and your Wi-Fi router has a VPN option then you can easily get rid of all of the certificate errors on your locally hosted stuff and navigate directly to them with a name rather than typing in IP addresses.

For me this was daunting but once I actually got it up and running it all made sense.

I agree with this. AI cannot make art, but it can make fragments that an artist can use to make a mosaic, and the mosaic is art.

I wish I had gone straight into college even though I was incredibly depressed and suffering from cptsd.

I could have been depressed and living in a dorm and possibly getting into wacky adventures or meeting somebody to love me rather than being depressed and living in my truck and scooting from minimum wage job to minimum wage job for 7 years before I finally started to get my shit together.
