The only people I've ever met who share this opinion are people who've spent their entire life viewing things that are fast-paced action movies or movies where characters are defined entirely by a handful of quippy one-liners and a melodramatic flash back and then have all of their character development confined to a singular moment of epiphany. Movies where they would be alphabet level predictable if they didn't move onto the next hackneyed trope at whiplash inducing paces.

If you spend your entire life watching the cinematic equivalent of cocaine of course sobriety is going to be boring.

Be gay. Do (cyber)crime.

Then check for spandex.

If they're considering optical media, typical BD-R, while viable, may not be be the best choice. BD-R M-Discs would probably be a better choice for backups. Especially if they're planning on needing access to the data over a period of decades, which would be potentially useful for familiy photos/videos and critical documents.

They are more expensive, as is the drive needed for them, but not by enough to be out of reach or even unreasonable given the additional durability of the discs.

The article mentions that previously they used pig cadavers with dyes and specially marked tissues to guide the robot. While it doesn't specify exactly what the "lifelike patient" is, to me the article reads like they're still using a pig cadaver just without those aids.

I usually just put my entire library from my Plex server on shuffle and listen to whatever comes up. Which is usually a lot of nu-metal, alt-rock, folk music, j-pop, rap, and j-rock.

Sometimes though I'll have something specific I want to listen to, recently that's been a lot of Colm R. McGuinness (over on YouTube) specifically his WH40K songs, but also all of his other stuff. He makes some great music and I'd recommend checking him out.

Not currently medicated for ADHD (though I am diagnosed), but I take modafinil for a shift-work related sleep disorder. It also helps with the ADHD. On the days when I take it, I find myself able to focus and get things done.

During high school and my early twenties i was on Adderall XR and IR. That was much more effective and the only reason I'm not still doing that is because my job has travel requirement to countries where those medications and similar are illegal.

It's one reason among a few that I'm currently looking for a new job.

"Abstinence is ideal, but you're teenagers so we all know you're going at it like rabbits so wear a condom. Now here's a slideshow of late stage STDs to show you what happens if you don't."

Well great, now I want to see an angry, long-haired, metal-head headbanging and spinning their hair in a circle to this song.

At least according to the USDA pork is a red meat. Presumably long pig is the same.

However, that particular red meat is ethically sourced and environmentally friendly to consume. The lack of sustainability is, in this case, desirable.

I'm curious why you rehang it every year and don't just install a retractable awning. Hell, putting some smaller retractable shades over the windows, especially the sunnier ones, would probably also save you a chunk of change on those bills.
