DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Ancient food are absurdly complicated.9·2 months agoI’ve done this a bunch of times when camping.
Good, crisp apples are the best. A carbonated honeycrisp apple is amazing!!!
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some people hate drinking water?13·3 months agoPeople who don’t drink water make me unnaturally irritated. It’s just so crazy. “I don’t breathe air because don’t really like the taste”.
I know I sound like an asshole. It shouldn’t matter to me what you do. It’s your body and your life.
Still…c’mon, like what? It’s water. It brings life. It’s the original thirst quencher. It’s what your body needs. Just drink it.
PCs and all devices will become more locked down, with a small rebellious minority. Pretty much what we have today, but the divide will become greater.
All consumer devices are designed for the consumer to consume content. Music, Movies, Books, TV Shows, Web Sites, Social Media, Video Games…all of it. Very, very few people at the consumer level use computing power to perform complex calculations or process large datasets.
All of that content is someone else’s creation, and they want to get paid for their creation. Either by you directly purchasing/subscribing to what they’ve created, or via advertisers. Everyone has rent or a mortgage and bills to pay and they want to buy food and buy stuff for their kids.
Any time you sit in front of a screen, whether it’s a TV or a PC or a smartphone and begin to consume content, think about that. Whoever created what you’re looking at wants money, just like you want money.
So when a PC isn’t locked down to make sure you’re somehow paying for the content you consume, that upsets the entire supply chain that is delivering this content to your eyes and ears. They have to make sure they’re somehow getting paid…
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto Work Reform@lemmy.world•Iceland approved the 4-day workweek in 2019: nearly 6 years later, all the predictions made have come true.8·4 months agoI mean getting 4 or 8 or 12 or 16 hours a day of work out of me is kind of ridiculous anyway. I don’t have a job where X hours = Y production. “40 hours” a week is just my employer’s antiquated way of quantifying my work. I would prefer they just let me handle my responsibilities.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto Work Reform@lemmy.world•Iceland approved the 4-day workweek in 2019: nearly 6 years later, all the predictions made have come true.16·4 months agoI work a 4x10 workweek right now. Huge improvement on my quality of life. I use my free weekday to handle chores and shopping and appointments, then actually spend my weekend with my family. I’ve been doing this for about 3 years.
I know I’ll lose this someday. Eventually somebody will use it against me. That’s the day I’ll start entertaining new opportunities.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Did the western world just suddenly go back to pretending wrestling is "real" for some reason?2·4 months agoTotally agree but for the opposite reason.
Wrasslin’ is very story driven. Not everyone has time to watch, and the sports news outlets is all spoilers.
It’s like a Harry Potter fan opening their news feed to “Snape kills Dumbledore after epic battle!” plastered all over the news on the day after the book came out. (my apologies to any Harry Potter fans who haven’t read all the books or seen all the movies by now, in 2025).
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Did the western world just suddenly go back to pretending wrestling is "real" for some reason?72·4 months agoI know professional wrestling is as real as the MCU or the latest episode of Severance. I am still entertained by all three.
Wrestling winds up in the “sports” section because news outlets have to classify it somehow. That’s not the fault of wrestling fans.
There’s really no need in life to yuck other people’s yum. If it’s not for you, that’s cool.
Where is your God now?!?!
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Why don't Taco Trucks have a recognizable theme song and menu like Ice Cream Trucks?2·6 months agoThat song would work! Now to convince all the Taco Trucks to play the same song so we know when they’re around the corner.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Why don't Taco Trucks have a recognizable theme song and menu like Ice Cream Trucks?2·6 months ago“It’s Raining Tacos” would work.
The song is not public domain though.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Why don't Taco Trucks have a recognizable theme song and menu like Ice Cream Trucks?5·6 months agoJust to be clear I don’t want to own and run a Taco Truck, I just heard the Ice Cream Truck and wished it was a Taco Truck.
Seems like missed opportunity to me, though.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksOPto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Why don't Taco Trucks have a recognizable theme song and menu like Ice Cream Trucks?17·6 months agoI stopped being excited for the Ice Cream Truck decades ago, but if I heard the Taco Truck coming around I’d be super excited and run outside with a big grin.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto No Stupid Questions@lemmy.world•Why do some people in the USA assume all immigrants are illegal and should "go back to where they came from"? Shouldn't that logic apply to all non-Native Americans?10·7 months agoThe answer to your question is right in your question.
“Logic”
Cold, hard logic no longer applies. Reality is manufactured now. Pointing out a logical fallacy doesn’t change anyone’s mind if that logic doesn’t coincide with their ideology.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto RetroGaming@lemmy.world•What is your favorite obscure Retro Game?English3·7 months agoBlaster Master on NES. I was so addicted. And then I got the NES Advantage controller and it was just pure Blaster Master bliss.
DJKJuicy@sh.itjust.worksto Showerthoughts@lemmy.world•Do you think there's one really obsessed T. J. Hooker fan out there who gets super pissed off that everyone always looks at William Shatner and thinks Star Trek?6·9 months agoYes. I have a buddy who is this person. I’m not kidding.
He is a big Star Trek fan, but he is also literally the only T.J. Hooker fan that I’ve ever met, and he was a T.J. Hooker fan before he was a Star Trek fan. (It’s worth noting we’re both in our late 40s.)
Coming across this randomly on a Wednesday evening renews my faith in The Internet. I was starting to think the whole thing was a bad idea. Thank you!
