  • Are all the Backrooms videos considered "official" canon/lore? Or just the ones made by Kane?

    Jump

  • I would say there are multiple branches of this collaborative fiction with their own fandoms, and if you were to try to define what was "canon", those would have to be separate, mutually exclusive canons. The Kane pixels videos is only one of these and not even the first.

  • Slice of ketchup anyone?

    Jump

  • Yes we must relieve people from the burden of having to master the difficult skill of putting condiments on a burger.

  • Just slap it on a wound like Flex Tape!

  • Whats the dumbest thing youve ever heard?

    Jump

  • All the dumb that I hear just completely outstrips my memory capabilities.

  • Pancake breakfast, but 4% healthier

    Jump

  • About even... I do 1.5 oz of everything, but 1.75 of wheat, to bring the total to the amount of wheat in the recipe I started from: https://ansonmills.com/recipes/436?recipes_by=grain

    I have a grinder so I have a bunch of different grains on hand and throw these into the grinder. I think the buckwheat I have is toasted but that's not critical.

    I reduce the butter a little. I'll try subbing applesauce next time I have some.

    Jump

  • I use butter but I use whole grain flour instead of white. I like a mix of wheat, spelt, corn, oat, and buckwheat.

  • Does anyone else feel irritated when deeply religious people connect everything with god?

    Jump

  • I'm not in any way religious, and it does irritate me when people say, of some senseless tragedy, "everything has a purpose."

    But I do see, in your specific example, that what they say has metaphorical value. You should be grateful that you had it in you to accomplish what you did, even if you don't attribute it to some mythical being.

    I often think the phase "there but for the grace of God, go I" because I don't know a secular equivalent. Think of God as a metaphor for the universe.

  • How do you talk yourself into doing things you know are good for you but you really don't wanna do?

    Jump

  • Yeah the "talk yourself into" phrasing of the question suggests to me that there is some rationalizing or excuse making going on. If so, I agree the correct response to that part of the brain is "STFU!" and just do it. Do not accept that behavior from your brain, shut that shit right down.

  • Do you sleep with noise?

    Jump

  • Hearing loss can be a blessing...

  • The Time Being

    Jump

  • This might vary by accent, but the being in the first phase is often pronounced more like one syllable, like "beeng". In the second phase, I would say the "be" does have stress but less than "time" does.

  • Whats your best remedy for junk stuc under your nails

    Jump

  • Time?

    The way to fight inflammation is generally to leave a thing alone and stop irritating it. If some of the irritation is from harsh soaps or decreasers stripping your skin's lipid barrier, a moisturizer may help. It might even actually help loosen some of the gunk if it is something oil soluable like grease.

    Hydrogen peroxide will probably produce more irritation. It's often not even recommended for disinfection these days because it causes damage to a wound along with disinfecting it.

    Do not remove my spam

    Jump

  • The old, human internet did not work by passively getting interesting content shoveled at you. It worked by active discovery. You followed links from human content that interested you to other content you thought might also be interesting. If you had a feed, it had content you had subscribed to. You did a web search on something that interested you and the results were not all garbage (I would argue most of what a web search produces these data is essentially spam).

    Your notion to accept spam is because the enshittified internet has perverted your expectations to expect to find interesting things by passively having them shoveled at you, whether by social media feed or email.

  • Unique cake ideas for wife's birthday?

    Jump

  • This will sound facetious, but I recommend getting her a cake she likes.

    I don't know if is too late to ask questions or do sleuthing, but if there was some kind of cake from her past she really liked that she hasn't had in a long time that might be ideal. Like for my wife that was ice cream cake which isn't as much a thing anymore as it was in our childhood. For me that is certain recipes my mom made in my childhood.

  • Their AI policy looks very reasonable, and they certainly aren't vibe coding. Everything is rigorously reviewed and tested by a handful of experienced, competent humans.

  • What math operation order do you use?

    Jump

  • FWIW they all sound equally ok to me. I never learned any of these acronyms, tho I've come across them on occasion, and if someone had presented any of the 4 as THE acronym for this I'd have believed them.

  • I'd defend to the death your right to this opinion! :"^D

  • What math operation order do you use?

    Jump

  • And I think writing "3x" implies the precedence in a way that "3 * x" doesn't.
