What is something that you pay attention to that most other people do not?
  • Yeah when I'd "disable" my right hand I'd have to wait for the weekends or homework that involved writing wouldn't be able to get done. You did this as an adult? That's dedication. I think in time anyone could adapt if they had to or could afford to be low-functioning for a while but I always wonder if there's shortcut steps to start rewiring your brain to not automatically assign tasks to your dominant hand.

  • What is something that you pay attention to that most other people do not?
  • I notice lefties. Im right-handed and when I was little and much dumber I wanted to be left-handed. So I did a bunch of weird shit to force it. Stuff like wrapping my right hand up for whole day, trying reverse controls for video games, wearing my watch on my right hand, etc. Some stuff did take, like the watch on my right hand, which ironically made my right hand more dominant. Being a lefty is the club that I was never able to join but think about subconsciously all the time I guess.

  • Repair or replace?
  • Have a '24 GSX R750. Brand new so I can't personally speak to longevity issues. That being said, Suzuki has kept this same bike since 2011 (trim changes only) which suggests it is a proven build. I think there was an upgrade to Brembo brakes a few years ago? But other than that it's essentially the same bike 2011-2024. Needless to say its been super easy finding/selling OEM and aftermarket parts for upkeep/upgrades. As a bonus, the GSX R600 is mostly identical to the 750 for parts swaps as well.

  • What's the most watched non porn video on porn hub?
  • There's a series of "how to politely decline your stepsister's advances" by Ryan Creamer. I watched it with my son on Pornhub. Talk about a bonding moment.

    Edit: Link for those wanting to get off.

    Alabama hospital halts IVF after court ruled that embryos are “children” — Supreme Court decision means anyone who destroys embryos could be prosecuted criminally or face punitive damages
  • Okay. Don't stop there Alabama. So if an embryo is now a child, let's talk now about dependents and tax exemptions, protective services, custodial rights and responsibilities, welfare benefits, insurance requirements, HOV rules, census counts, adoption and fostering rules, school districts and education funds, estate planning and probate.... You wanted to open Pandora's damn box - now every piece of state legislation that involves a child now needs to be adjusted.

    Might get interesting in the news as questions arise over what the new guidelines are. But of course they won't get addressed. Of course, of course.

  • Lemmy, what did i get in the mail?
  • I remember a few years ago on the other place that starts with "R", there were a bunch of people who were randomly sent seed packets from China. Big debate on whether they should plant them and if it would start the zombie apocalypse or not. Some planted them and it grew to be wildflowers...so far.

    TLDR: seeds

  • A dangerous Washington 911 staffing crisis was averted with a simple fix: remote work | Kitsap County, in Washington State, is the first to prove that 911 dispatchers can work from anywhere
  • Wow that sounds extensive enough to where there should be an expectation of higher pay. There's an argument that for civic duties such as jury duty or political positions, pay should not incentivize prople to seek those duties or positions or you attract the wrong candidates...but I dont really believe thats true. Still, kudos to you for taking on a front line job like that - I've been to the ER a few times and the environment is just so surreal and depressing. I cant imagine the daily amounts of human suffering that you are exposed to. That'd be enough to justify the weed IMO.

    On another note, you should totally do an AMA.

  • Everyone's a nerd about something. What are you a nerd about?
  • Rabbits. Had them as pets throughout my childhood and I was fascinated with their behavior. Sadly, some of my knowledge came from irresponsibleness as pet stores used to sell them willy nilly without good care instructions. This was also during the dial-up modem era so there wasn't much on the internet then either.

    Here's some things to know:

    1. You have to handle them a lot when they are young or they will not make great pets.
    2. You can litter train them. They can't use cat litter though as clay dust is bad for their lungs.
    3. If you don't get them fixed, especially the females, they can be predisposed to a lot of reproductive system cancers and be extremely aggressive.
    4. They are highly social animals. It's especially cruel to keep one alone for its entire life.
    5. They are somewhat opportunistic carnivores.
  • Anyone else hoping for new motorcycle laws in 2024?

    Just curious to see if any of you out there have been observing any trends that might lead to new motorcycle legislation - for better or worse. I noticed that for 2024 Nebraska surprisingly repealed their motorcycle helmet law making it optional for wear. Definitely raised an eyebrow as they still criminalize lane splitting.

    I try to stay on the optimistic side for lane filtering eventually passing here in Virginia but seeing how we are one of only two states where radar detectors are illegal, I think it's fair to say we may just stay in stasis for a while. Anyone else optimistic or pessimistic on new moto laws for this year?
