So I signed up for this, I like it, the lessons are good, but it seems far from perfect, and it’s not till you sign up that you start to notice.

It recommends some strange moves, it’s probably thinking way too far ahead.

One game I actually broke it it got stuck in a loop and then when it was it’s turn once I did something different it stopped moving it didn’t know what to do.

Just thought I’d leave some feedback for anyone else who sees your post
Oh that's odd. I didn't have any issues with it.
Thanks for the heads up!

The hair on my left arm has been standing up for 20+ minutes, but the hair on my right arm is normal.

I think this means that I have covid.

Over the last year I’ve grown to like Elon more and more. He’s a real gem and I’m now convinced I’d enjoy talking to him face to face. Which I’m sure I wouldn’t with Gates.

Love it when he calls out billionaire hypocrisy and duplicity, the same a-holes flying their big private jets to climate conferences.

Reminds me of my (now) wife when my company was making <$3k/month less than 5 years ago. (She wasn't nasty about it, just skeptical; she's not/wasn't an entrepreneur.) Broke $100k last month. She's learning CENTS through my weekly pontifications now

USA sure likes to cry Russia a lot. Elections suck? Russians did it! Want to frame someone politically for anything? Russians did it! Some part of the world doing something that is their own business? It's Russia! Prices going up for years and then a new war starts? Russia!!!

Woke your countries energy supplies to death and then a new event causes you to rely on Russian gas? It's 100% Russia's fault! It's nothing to do with years and years of woke BS doing it!!!! Damn those Russians.

Do you ever say a word once, have it sound funny, so you say it again a few more times, then you question if it's actually a word, followed by questioning your own existence?

"The same thing happened today that happened yesterday, only to different people" - Walter Winchell

Saw this quoted by Matt Drudge. Both were reporters / journalists but of very different eras. Very cool to think about

Drudge Report was DEFINITELY fastlane, btw.

for those interested:


There is an untapped niche here for the younger conservative crowd. Babylon Bee is getting it, but they're missing the ones who aren't religious or who come from other faith backgrounds.

Drudge fills a very specific niche, but it is the old media format. Some of the new stuff is way too content heavy. There's an opportunity here.

Any plumbing experts in here? It's a national holiday here in Portugal, so can't get any professional help before tomorrow unfortunately. Maybe some of you know what could be wrong.

We just moved into our new apartment 3 weeks ago, and yesterday our neighbour's from downstairs rang the door to tell us that they a bit of water leaking from their bathroom ceiling the last couple of days.

I checked our shower drain and it was absolutely clean. Which I also find a bit odd. Isn't it supposed to be a little clogged up with hairs and stuff? Does this mean that the filter doesn't stop the hairs and it just goes into the drain and clogs it?

Then today my wife was washing the dishes in the kitchen, and I heard some strange sounds from the bathroom. I heard them before when I was washing a glass or something in the last couple of days, but didn't really pay attention to it.

Then I went to the bathroom to find water coming out of this thing:

IMG_20220425_101612.jpg
IMG_20220425_101622.jpg
When I looked into it it looked like it hasn't been cleaned since the 2nd World War.

IMG_20220425_102146.jpg

The sounds i heard doesn't appear when I shower or use the bathroom sink. Only when the kitchen sink is used. Can it be a clogg somewhere between the kitchen and the bathroom?

I will of course make sure to call a professional tomorrow. But any advice on what the problem could be, and if I can use the bathroom sink at least untill the problem is fixed would be great.

EDIT: Just tried to flush the toilet and a bit of water started dripping down there as well. Also from the bathroom sink when I turned it on. Worst is from the kitchen sink. I poured down a liter of water in the kitchen sink, and almost all immediately filled out in this hole (not sure what to call it) in the bathroom.

EDIT2: Looks like nothing drips when flushing the toilet. Only from the sinks and the shower.

Does anyone have a recommendation for some kind of voice search app? I need a way to search call recordings for specific words so I don't have to listen to the whole damn call all over again to find one thing.

Sounds like your main drain is clogged just after the kitchen sink.

Your kitchen sink drains to a main pipe and when that main pipe is clogged the water backs up and comes out your drain. Is that drain the lowest one in your apartment?

When water comes out that drain and it pools it finds the lowest point in your wall, goes through that and down onto your downstairs neighbor’s ceiling.

Otter.ai is good at that. You can can upload your audio (or record your zoom calls) and then do word searches for keywords.

The Twitter account who created that graphic is Visualize Value if anyone is interested.

Posts a lot of good stuff similar to that one.
