Yeah I’ve seen people recommend ChatGPT for meal planning and recipes, and it’s mostly fine for common, simple recipes but it does super weird things when you ask it for something nonstandard, that has a lot of variations, or with dietary restrictions. Like it repeatedly gave me recipes with my allergens with a note to check package for said allergen and other weird things like claiming frozen vegetables take 10 minutes to roast in the oven. It’s useful for certain things but it’s not really intelligent.

Probably pressured by the church of scientology

frogfruit ,

Yes. Supposedly it was Danny Masterson that recruited them. Some of them claim to no longer be involved with the church, but celebrities have been known to lie about that before, likely a church PR move to convince people they’re totally not a cult and that people can leave any time.

Justin Roiland used his ‘Rick and Morty’ fame to pursue young fans, text messages show (www.nbcnews.com)

In the years following the 2013 debut of Adult Swim’s cartoon phenomenon “Rick and Morty,” its star and co-creator Justin Roiland became a titan of the animation and video game industry and a rock star of youth counterculture. His artistic style and caricatures became ubiquitous in cannabis culture, and his career expanded...

Sexting minors (under 18) is illegal in most places, including California, even if they’re above the age of consent.

After blocking most of the meme subs, I find it a pretty nice place.

You have to angle your body such that the water drips straight down and not toward the front. It requires some practice to get the hang of.

You can probably get it down in one sitting. Just make sure you can get the angle right before actually going so you don’t end up with an infection.

frogfruit ,

Yeah you really have to block the annoying communities. I did have to do that on Reddit too as well though. And subscribe to some nice stuff so you have a good home feed to look at when All isn’t working for you.

No, I’m not a chatbot. I’m here to help with any questions or topics you’d like to discuss.

frogfruit ,

I just wish you could do it while browsing all rather than clicking into the post.

frogfruit ,

I don’t see that option?

frogfruit ,

I have been typing my journals for over a decade. If you don’t have a fondness for handwriting, then it will not make you feel any better. I find it frustrating to write by hand. It’s significantly slower than my thoughts, it adds more clutter, it’s less convenient, it cramps my hand, and you lose out on the ability to search your notes to help you remember events or check your progress. You don’t have to use a fancy journaling app if you don’t want to. I just use Google docs.

frogfruit ,

Use habit stacking to make it part of your routine. Just start doing it after you brush your teeth or whatever in the evening. You can also set a reminder with Google tasks or whatever your preferred app is.

frogfruit ,

I thought that too. I bought a rocket book to make it super easy to scan and organize. But I never bothered to actually scan anything. It’s just one of those things I will never get around to, so I just switched back to typing. Idk maybe ymmv if you don’t have really bad ADHD like I do 🤷

My local subreddit, a liberal city, has been banning a bunch of people after it got taken over by anti-choice conservatives who don’t even live there.

Some people find it more comfortable than hanging fabric.

Texas city strictly limits water consumption as thousands across state face water shortages (www.cbsnews.com)

A small Texas city west of Austin remains under tight water restrictions amid a significant drought. After days of being at the highest emergency level for water conservation, officials said Monday that those restrictions have only slightly been loosened, limiting water consumption to “indoor use only” until further notice.

frogfruit ,

Water restrictions vary by city, but landscape irrigation is indeed restricted. Usually they go up to stage 4, which typically limits to watering once a week or once every 2 weeks.

Apparently stage 5 is defined by the city as indoor use only: kvue.com/…/269-22171b66-f29b-4e1a-b57a-9e434ecf34…

Blanco county is currently at stage 3, which limits watering from 7-10 AM or PM and not at all on non-watering weeks. txwaterco.com/…/blanco-county-drought-conditions

Interestingly, they include hand watering in the restrictions. My city has designated days and times you are allowed to water, but hand watering is allowed at any time.

The city is saying no outdoor use at all: m.facebook.com/blancocityhall?fref=nf&ref=embed_p…

Typically, yes. They issue citations and increasing levels of fines for each violation, and they disconnect your water if you don’t respond or pay in a timely manner. How quickly they respond to reports and how often they issue citations varies by city. Some cities even employ patrol units to enforce violations during severe drought conditions. Some cities aren’t giving out warnings at all anymore but going straight to citations/fines.

frogfruit ,

That would be extreme even for Texas. Texas has laws in place to prevent HOAs from prohibiting water conservation efforts such as xeriscaping, growing native grasses instead of exotic, rain barrels, etc. Most of Texas undergoes drought restrictions already. If we didn’t, we would certainly run out of water. Banning water conservation would be stupid even by Texas standards.

Granted, Texas also does stupid shit such as restricting water usage in communities while pumping out that same water to sell to 3rd parties.

You can wear masks any time you are sick to avoid spreading it. It’s not just about COVID.

frogfruit ,

Congrats on being in a position to be able to do that.

I do not see a way to hide them on mobile.
