I guess that’s just the intentional innuendo I use about it. If you look up bjj memes (or Craig Jones) you’ll find most people preempt the jokes insecure people might make about dressing up in lycra and wrestling with other sweaty men in a padded room.

Cool! Yeah, they also have Ringen which also can be nice! I tried sword fighting a couple of times but I don’t like the competition form of it (also I’m bad at it).

I do more than playfully wrestle with my friends. As I do BJJ. I actively try to choke them out or try to break their limbs or try to tear their ligaments apart. It’s very fun for all. Though while it’s open to anyone I do get most people wouldn’t enjoy it. It’s personally physical to the extreme since on top of the close physical contact you’re also sweating all over each other to the point sweat dripping in your eyes or mouth will statistically happen at least once.

Honestly if you feel like you miss playful fighting with friends, do a trial class of it.

The previous videos were too long for anyone who doesn’t want to obsess about this. And this one is more pragmatic about your detergent of choice and thus more palatable for people who aren’t already fans of his.

It’s also takes him less time to make videos like this according to the messages on his patreon.

Personally I’m a fan of him remaking some videos like this. I can get my family to watch this a lot easier.

Do you still have carpets? I find that carpets are much bigger indicators of whether my dust mite allergy will kick up rather than visible dust that’s flowing around. Best of luck in any case.

The physical market was long gone before Spotify happened, don’t make your legitimate complaints look silly by blaming Spotify for it. The music industry simply had no good answer to deal with digital media.

Spotify did seem to force their hand and some artists improved and adapted. And it’s never had a true monopoly with many different services coexesting and competing with it.

Remember that you can tell him you’re too poor for that. Because even to get in the supporting classes you need to be quite a bit more than just “wealthy”.

If you only have to use it 15 minutes every week it’s probably not worth getting to know.

I work in a Windows shop, so I love everything being an object, most of the time. At least for the things that are worked out completely.

It’s great for things you need to iterate or just for figuring out what you can do by piping a result to get-member. If you are interested in getting better at powershell at some point, I highly recommend Powershell in a month of lunches. (Also because I like Manning’s model where they automatically offer the digital versions of books they sell, and also offering free previews of the entire book, given enough time)

I wish I could say the same but if you want to date you have to here. I despise and absolutely hate how you have to you use a phone number to register. And then every contact you have can add you to a group so everyone there now can have your number.

I’ve had a stalker before and I hate that stuff like that makes it trivially easy for her to get my number again. I literally can’t understand how women are okay with absolutely shitty systems like this. I really can’t repeat enough how much I strongly hate WhatsApp and how everyone else thinks it’s so good for exactly the reason that I hate it. It’s too easy to send messages despite me never giving you my number to begin with. SMS is the same but you can’t add me to a group without my permission and share my number with a group of people I don’t know.

Yes, MM DD YY only makes sense when you’re speaking

For many people it doesn’t. It’s something that’s exclusive to the US. In British English it’s day before month when speaking.

It’s something that is taught in school as “remember that the Americans say date before month so you don’t get confused”. But in a business context it’s bloody annoying you don’t switch to the international standard.

In British English you say the date before the month as well. I know that even saying the month first sounds very jarring too me.

I paid for sync for Reddit, I donated to my Lemmy instance and I’ll pay for Sync for Lemmy once I decide for myself whether I take the subscription, simply ad free or one time payment for ultra. As there’s still fixes to the pricing going on I’ll wait out for that

I guess I’m biased with paying for software since I work at a company that makes software it also offers in its’ own SaaS platform. I literally maintain the infrastructure so I’m intimately familiar with those costs. I appreciate anyone who offers software and service for free. But there’s always a cost and if you want premium service you’ll need to pay for it.

That is ofcourse another justification and easy one since paying for sync is almost nothing to me. I do hope the free Sync keeps being a good alternative for anyone who wants to try it.

Not caring what you do on your pc, within reason, is not the same as not monitoring for dangerous actions that could endanger your network or company (and client data). I don’t care what my colleagues do on their pc either. As long as it doesn’t cause me more work.

Logging security incidents is work. So we do block a lot of websites and keep an eye on what you try to run. If we see something wrong we just talk to you and explain why we don’t want you to do that. 99,9% of the time everybody is happy after that.

The idea of this being something you can get fired for or that’s taken into consideration for your evaluation is insane though. We have rights as workers. Keeping the network safe means I can see some extent of what you do. Your boss or their boss has no right to that information unless you state you will continue endangering the network. Even in that case I wouldn’t even tell them the websites tbh.

Security software isn’t tracking software. It should be able to hook into every current semi popular browser without you being able to disable it.

On the other hand, allowing users who don’t know the answer to the question you’re asking to both install VPN software and allow them this kind of traffic is a compliance violation to begin with.

Having a talk about it doesn’t mean they care. They’d just want you to stop doing that on the work network.

If you’re using company hardware on a company network and our security software says you’re visiting ransomware like URLs, it’s very much legal monitoring as it’s for a technical reason. It’s probably mandatory since you need to do this to protect the personal data your company stores.

More often than not you probably signed a document stating you understood and accepted this.

Cooking a fresh steak to 63 degrees sounds like a waste of money to me. ( And so does cooking chicken to 70) But I think we can all agree to that because we know those are the temperatures that indicate safety if it reaches that for 1 second. And lower temperatures over time are also good.

Generally I prefer reverse searing steak because it allows for a tender perfect inside with a hard crust and no gradients in the doneness. But if I don’t have time for that (or for a sous vide waterbath) I just cook straight out of the fridge in a cast iron while flipping every thirty seconds. And for anyone doubting that flipping 30 seconds is superior to not touching it before flipping once: your steaks will be less evenly cooked which I don’t like but you are free to do so ofcourse. Read Kenji’s article on it if you don’t believe me: https://www.seriouseats.com/the-food-lab-flip-your-steaks-and-burgers-multiple-times-for-better-results

A fresh steak should be safe to eat raw. I’ve never heard of a target temp for food safety for steak either tbh.

If anything bringing steak to “room temp” would be more likely to bring it in a danger zone.

I’ve never seen a comparative experiment that confirms this habit and I don’t see how that would make a difference. Especially not if you use a thermometer.

Please recommend people to update their app in a topic title. Connect couldn’t even load a topic without failing out today. An update fixed it, but I had to manually force it because it didn’t apply automatically.

This will drive people away. Literally none of the communities I subscribe to on world even seemed to have a new comment.
