Maybe we weren’t meant to be the ones doing everything AI can do… perhaps the purpose to life is to *experience*, after all we are only here for a very short time and it sucks having to spend time on things we’d rather not do.
If it’s your relay, unless you are using Tor to connect to your friend’s relays, can’t it be traced back to you? I guess adding a hop is better than nothing?
I think the next generations will likely use it a lot.
The vast majority is already hooked on unrealistic ideal lifestyles, reshaping their own lives and bodies to keep up with the Fakesons and the Shamdashians. What is unreal is very well accepted by the average Joe and Jane.
Few remain original and true to their core.
To switch is hard, specially because our knowledge of what is good or bad for us is usually lacking.
Gina and I made it work by both working together with a nutritionist, experimenting and trying out new foods, learning about easy prep methods, etc. that were sustainable for us. It took us over a year to slowly and completely switch to a different diet, where we are cognizant of what we are eating. It’s a process.
If you are forced to buy meals outside, then it helps if you start making healthy choices and think about each one individually. Don’t think that because you ordered a burger you also need the fries plus the smoothie. Those are all separate choices. If you went for the burger, get water and skip the fries! Or even better, try a healthy food restaurant so there’s more healthier choices to pick from.
Choices, choices, choices.
Outdoor air quality in Ottawa isn’t the greatest but it’s not bad either. At least not in the part of town I’m living in.
With the occasional wildfires it would definitely get pretty bad, so about a year ago we got a medium-sized air purifier to improve the indoor air quality, as particles from the smoke would make their way in and linger. It also helped improve the air much faster after cooking, which unbeknownst to us got pretty bad even with the range hood fan at full throttle.
Air quality is often overlooked as one of the reasons why our sleep isn’t good. Waking up groggy, upset, with headaches, or feeling of unrest could be attributed to the air quality in your bedroom.
But what is air quality? It’s the result of combining various metrics to yield a qualitative (good, fair, poor) or quantitative (1-10) value: temperature, humidity, pressure, particulate matter in various microscopic sizes, air mixture, concentration of harmful gases, etc. The more metrics you capture the more spot on your air quality will be, but knowing the value of those individual metrics is also pretty important if you want to have any hope of addressing any issues.
Recently I got an Airlytix sensor that captures a ton of these metrics, and after running it for a bit I noticed that the CO2 levels were too high (> 1300 ppm). After spending 20 minutes in bed, I noticed it had climbed above 1600 ppm 😨. Normal concentrations are usually in the 500-1000 range. I switched on the HVAC fan and it slowly dropped to under 800 ppm over a matter of hours and has remained there since.
We rarely open windows at home, as we heavily relied on the HVAC system do its job for us. However that system is focused on temperature and humidity, completely ignoring everything else. The HVAC fan had been set to auto for as long as I can remember so as soon as the desired temperature was reached it turned off, regardless of CO2 levels or anything else I’ve mentioned.
I’ve considered getting a smart controller for the HVAC but the last thing I want is Google’s Nest or any device that requires to be online, or from some random company that can go bankrupt. For now I’ll manually toggle the fan I guess now that I am more aware of what is happening, that’s of course until I find a way to automate the process.
NostrSync DeepSync is sick!
First time I tried it on my phone and the it ran out of memory and crashed. Today I tried it from my laptop and worked like a charm.
