I'd much prefer to drink acidic or staining things through a straw. Orange juice, iced coffee drinks, soft drinks. The less those things pass over my enamel the better.

They do what?! And they don't leak while you're using them?

I had guessed it would be 0001 lol

Is his password common knowledge?

I am not as against AI as your typical lemmy user, but I think LLMs generating recipes might sometimes not work the best? Especially if you are limiting the ingredients. If your on-hand ingredients typically wouldn't be combined, it might hallucinate and spit out the recipe for some food crime creation. Maybe you've had a different experience though?

Since we are being pedantic, I think maybe you mean "apply" not implement?

Capitalism or not the claim would be true, chronic diseases are defined by their lack of effective cure.

Im begging everyone in this thread to try using a white noise machine.

What do you like about it in macOS? I have never used it, so it's hard for me to understand the appeal.

They have potential. It is time to weaponize snails.

I have trouble finding podcasts I like. Usually if I want to hear a story, I want to be engrossed and have as many details as possible. And for nonfiction, I tend to dislike a lot of commentary. I just want the information as plain as possible.

Reading can feel like such a chore, even if you enjoy it.

I have trouble getting started. I'm not sure why I feel as though I should only read a book at a time, and that I should finish every book I start.

So I am trying to treat reading more like how I watch TV. I can start and stop, maybe skip a slow episode (chapter, page). I read more than one book at a time. I just swap between books as my interest changes.

Also, audiobooks have been a really great way for me to read more. I listen on walks, while driving, doing odd jobs, or just while playing some mindless game that keeps my eyes and hands occupied while I listen.

It's just so much more fulfilling than listening to music. I find nothing is quite comparable to the way books capture a moment. Theres just so much perspective and wisdom even in fiction books, they can make other media seem somewhat shallow in comparison sometimes.

If you get/have a library card, see if they support overdrive/libby. I periodically replace my social media apps on my homescreen with a book reading app. When muscle memory decides its time to doom scroll, I end up reading a few pages of a book on my phone instead.

About caring less, I cant claim to have figured it out, but read stoic philosophy seems to help put me on the right track. My understanding is its the basis for a lot of modern psychotherapy, and it seems to make a lot of sense to me.
