My combat boots lasted 4-years. Is that reasonable given hard use?

  • Dissenting opinion: some people need less sleep as they get older. iirc I needed the most sleep in my late 20s, but it's decreased since then.

  • Then I wanted to make robots but I went to a robotics company for a high school project and they explained engineers don’t build anything and the technicians don’t design anything.

    I was affiliated with a robotics lab for a couple years, and I'm pretty sure that's not true industry-wide. I'm mostly saying this for other folks who may be reading. Look into it first before believing what that company person said.

    • What's the smallest laptop that runs Linux and is actually usable?

  • I have an HP Chromebook 11 that I was going to install linux on (iirc you have to open it up and flip a hardware switch to do so) but I ended up keeping Chrome OS on it. Anyway I mention it bc the form-factor is nice, it's very small and light but still usable. Only thing I don't like is the touchpad so I hook up an external mouse whenever possible. You can get those chromebooks for under $100 refurbished too.

  • Glad to hear it. I think it's common for scholars and activists to ignore self-care, but it's not superfluous.

  • It really varies by person. I sleep best on a foam matress on a futon on the floor. When I go to a hotel with the ultra-soft bedding it just seems weird.

  • TIL the term "wardialing" (referring to the technique of automatically dialing numbers) was named after the 80s film WarGames, which showed it at work.

    • What's with the moths and lamps?

  • why talk about moths?

    If an extinction-level event happens soon and all this info is stored in an EMP-proof bunker somewhere, future alien historians will say that the moths and the lamps represented how helpless we felt in the face of our certain demise.
