I mean, just make students loans dischargeable during bankruptcy for chrissakes. Why doesn’t this get more attention? It’s ridiculous. Sometimes people make bad decisions. I did. A…

I visited the museum two summers ago and it is really impressive. Even though I had caught some kind of cold and felt terrible, I thoroughly enjoyed my visit. Highly recommend.

Burning Man?

Beautiful tribute. Godspeed.

I bought the ninth Mini Cooper in Illinois in 2002. My former wife got pulled over in Chicago. They just wanted to look at the car.

Flighty is a great app. I travel a lot and use it all the time to manage my flights. Highly recommend.

Love it! I had three of these (can't remember if G4 or G5 - I think G4) at the digital photo lab I ran from 1998-2010. I ended up buying the second one because the first one would …

Gave me a new appreciation for the scale of the investment /bet that is being made on transportation of the future.

I’ve sat with 5MeO-DMT over a dozen times, always in the form of Bufo flake from the toad. It has been one of the most transformational and healing modality I’ve encountered. I hav…

Yes. Came here to to say this has been done before. It was too much for the Establishment to stomach. Ram Dass, Tim Leary’s associate (Richard Alpert at the time) talks about it he…

Unless you are Brian “Hairlacher” formerly of the Chicago Bears and shilling hair replacement on Chicago area billboards for years now.

Totally agree! I started with the GIANT Legos in the mid 70's then we got the smaller ones. I used to spend hours with about eight different shapes trying to make something interes…

I've been almost completely off social media (and candy - potentially a larger problem in the past for me) for a month other than to check once or twice a day to see if somebody ha…

Just curious if you've tried psychedelics?

Happened to me while on holiday in Costa Rica. Was able to reset PW this morning, thank goodness.

But it is nowhere near as profitable as the 35mm film system was.

I’ll leave this here. http://insanebraintrain.blogspot.com/2011/07/massive-dosing-...

Thank you! I've looked for these books on and off over the years but couldn't remember any titles, just some of the plots. Loved these as a boy in the late 70s!

This cracks me up. We're still looking for the "Magic Pill".

They are doing some interesting stuff over at https://scienceandnonduality.com

I find this utility very useful for working with windows on the Mac. https://www.lightpillar.com/mosaic.html

I have a bunch (15+) Hue bulbs and can't stand using them with HomeKit. I can't figure out how to get the color temp to be consistent. It seems to just do whatever it wants.

Interesting. This was mid 90's.
