Maybe it's British English? I would use the wording like that. But I'm German. However, a "benannte Animationssequenz" is a perfectly valid construct in German, and doesn't sound weird at all given the context.

> I still don't know what a valid and an invalid feeling is supposed to mean.

Maybe that’s a topic you could dive in deeper on your own terms, then? And stay curious!

I don't have an issue with a different accent, but vocal fry sounds just outright weird to me. Maybe because I'm not a native speaker, but it's giving me snobbish, crow-like vibes. I don't like it, and I don't really understand why people aim for it. A deep voice is not vocal fry. Sam Elliot has a nice deep voice. Toni Braxton has a nice deep voice. Vocal fry is none of that. It's the tramp stamp of voice.

> most people just have a very hard time declaring “this person is worth 0 additional seconds of my time” and actually following through.

I think that's what "setting boundaries" is about: Standing your own ground, and decide: "Not worth my time and energy.", yet still believe in the good in people. I think even bad people have something good in them. It's just not healthy to figure it out for me, once the manipulative (or bad) habits have surfaced.

They do that on iOS. Integrates quite well.

Painfully? I love the stimulation of my brain to learn something new. It didn’t really hurt.

I don’t think they will. There is too much money in it now.

Of course, because there was a HOA that became financially so big (on paper), that it secured 80% of the shovel supply for the next two years. Now everyone is fighting over the remaining 20%.

I went the obvious path, back in the days.

> I wasn’t sure how to find out what an “LI????77” was […]. I would be interested to learn non-LLM ways to figure this out though. There must be a way.

Back in my days I simply googled my way through the nomenclature of batteries. I feel pretty old, somehow.

Care to elaborate? What do you mean by "end of all human labor"? How would a society without the need for human labor look like?

I recently read a comment that stated that, as democracy clearly does not work, it should be replaced with technocracy.

I'm amazed by the ignorance some people carry around.

For a long time, there was a livestream on Youtube that showed a part of Tokyo. Not sure which part, but there was a highway and railroad. And it was somehow soothing to me, because if it was night here, the sun would rise there. I always imagined myself there. I miss this stream.
