Late 14c. "late" originates from Old French salade and Medieval Latin salata, meaning "salted vegetables," from Latin sal "salt," reflecting its meaning of season...
EAGLEWOOD CLIFFS, NJβDescribing it as a convenient all-in-one option for consumers in a hurry, Hellmannβs on Thursday unveiled a new meat-on-the-bottom mayo cup.
Huh. I appealed the speed camera ticket online. They sent an email saying that it was being reviewed but nothing else since. Suddenly this morning when I try to check the status of the ticket, it doesn't seem to exist any more.
I don't want to just assume they've waived it, but I don't know what else to make of this. It'd be nice to have some sort of confirmaion.
My best guess is that they're so backlogged with the appeals process that it just timed out and the appeal was auto-approved. I'll have to call the city Monday to confirm if I don't hear anything from them by then.
But Marc Andreesen said the only job that would not be automated by AI is venture capitalist (presumably because it can be automated by a bank account and an RNG)
Also if your idea of a job consists mostly of attending meetings and making powerpoints, you could be excused for thinking AI can automate the day-to-day of that.
I worked at a company years ago, & for some reason was left alone in the CEOs office. He had one of the fancy DEC terminals we all coveted, not even turned on. I unplugged the serial cable (this dates this anecdote) and left.
A month later I happened to be in there & noticed the terminal was still unplugged.
There are engaged, hard-working CEOs out there. There are also completely useless fuckwits who contribute nothing positive. Their companies run despite them, not because of them.
I was always bothered by the scene in #StarTrek II when they used Reliant's prefix code. The input device they used made absolutely no sense from an electronics (or user interface) standpoint.
It just recently occurred to me though that it makes absolute sense from a quick and dirty movie prop standpoint.
In today's age of internet security, the handful of numeric digits is clearly not an effective password.
Maybe we can assume that there was some kind of additional layer of authentication behind the scenes, such as voiceprints based on the pronunciation of the digits...or coming in on a channel encrypted with Starfleet protocols, etc.
The computer certainly had to set up the codes so the crew could just throw the switches.
Oh, of course. But it can be fun to rationalize what is in the movie with what we know today.
The switches you mention in a different post are part of what tells me that there is some sort of additional security infrastructure behind the scenes we don't see.
It happens to me. What the heck a dead router must means dead services but heck... Just play Dirty Deeds when that somehow happens! xD youtube.com/watch?v=bJ1aVeVA_eβ¦

in my experience sshfs will succeed on keeping a mount mounted(alive? what is the word for this?) despite anything, i've even rebooted the ssh daemon and it persisted, it just does not care
We were driving home and suddenly heard a clunk and the battery light on the dash suddenly came on.
Fantastic. We've been driving Instacart to make ends meet. We can't afford a huge repair bill right now. Hopefully it's just the alternator belt that snapped.
This car is 20 years old. It's not like it owes us any favours, but it's still a problem. The one positive thing I can say about this car is that of the two major issues it's had, it's always had the courtesy to break down a couple blocks from home so that we can limp back there and figure out what to do next.
@GeriAQuin Alt text: A screenshot of a social media post. It reads: I love public libraries because they are built on the principle that books are so important and so necessary to human flourishing that access to them cannot depend on your income.
My understanding is that the said pins are the key pins, not the driver pins, so if I'm gentle enough to not over set them, the shape of the pin should be completely irrelevant, right? I mean, they'd only pose a problem if they were pushed beyond the shear line, wouldn't they?
Just getting home and as we got out of the car some middle-aged guy on a moped blew through the parking lot blasting some weird hip-hop version of the national anthem... so that's a thing that just happened.
@purplepadma Iβd imagine he was responding to an emergency call about some streetlamps that had been missed in the great flagging. What you heard was his siren.
Wanted to know if I could set gelatin faster by putting it in the freezer instead of the fridge. This is the first paragraph of the first result I found on the subject.
When it comes to culinary creativity, gelatin is a versatile ingredient that can bring remarkable textures and flavors to our desserts, jellies, and savory dishes. However, those who have worked with gelatin often find themselves asking: βWill gelatin set faster in the freezer?β In this article, weβll explore the science behind gelatin, how it sets, and whether using a freezer can indeed speed up the process.
That's a lot of reading for what the author knows damn well is a yes or no answer I'm looking for. I kind of understand why people like the idea of "AI summaries". Though I imagine this whole article was spit out by an LLM in the first place. Gotta keep people on the page as long as possible to drive up potential ad revenue, right?
After the news cycle recently exploded with the announcement that Google would require every single Android app to be from a registered and verified developer, while killing third-party app stores β¦
@Wintermute_BBS I suspect that I'll end up on lineage or something else android derived in the short term, and that I'll just stop carrying a cellphone in the long term.
Google are rushing the EEE of AOSP so that they've only spent a year or so on the middle phase. Hopefully this means they'll backtrack when they hit a big backlash?
I scrolled through the comments a bit and it's incredible how many people agree that this is bad, but have the reason completely wrong. I stopped scrolling when I got to an impassioned exchange about "google and verizon are commies" vs "wtf are you talking about" vs "read wealth of nations smh"
Whelp, that will save me a fortune on buying a nice phone. Anyone have recommendations for a good flip phone? Oh, and a nice pocketable Linux machine with cellular data and, preferably, a GPS? Of course, I'd rather combine those two. Let me know if that becomes possible.
Replying from my other account because I used the wrong one before.
I found my Sharp Zaurus in a tub of old tech in my storage space. It is charging now. I don't see any lights but I don't remember if there are supposed to be. If this actually powers up I will consider it a minor miracle.
@Unlikelylass @BustaMarx @geniodiabolico@wandering.shop @zillion I lived in Evanston and worked across the street from the Sears Tower in the era when I was using this regularly. I remember answering an email from the wifi in a bank lobby in the Chicago Loop and I thought I was a character in Neuromancer. Later I would haul way out to Schaumburg to attend user groups and hang out with other nerds. It was so much fun from top to bottom.
I have been putting a 9V battery across the terminals for about 30 seconds at a time. The first 5 or 6 times appears to have done nothing. This last time I measured 2.7 V across the old battery so I put it back in the Zaurus and on the charger. The light is not on. I'm not really sure what the minimum voltage needs to be for the charger and the device to recognize this as functioning. I'm just throwing spaghetti at this.

@Unlikelylass @BustaMarx @geniodiabolico@wandering.shop @zillion Aww shucky ducky! I have been assuming that this thing draws USB power. But what if it doesn't? I need to go back to the storage space and look in that tub for a Sharp 5V charger.

@Unlikelylass @BustaMarx @zillion After running around like a maniac searching for the charger in my office, my garage, the storage space and literally everywhere a charger might sit ...
Turns out that Skylight Frames have the same barrel connector and a 5V 2A charger. I have the light!
At this point that is all it does. The wifi is too old to connect to my AP and I have failed to get the USB networking from my PopOS laptop to connect. I might find an old wifi router and stand it up so that I can try to update some of the stuff on here.
This whole project has been like the 3rd act of The Graduate. Frantic rush to get this up then we all stare at each other like "now what?"
@geniodiabolico They're still for sale on Amazon! I wrote most of a book on my PalmPilot. There must be _something_ now. Perhaps Google has just opened up a whole new market.
@zillion The most affordable linux-based phone is the pinephone. I missed my old Nokia linux phones, so I got one a while back to play with, but never used it as a daily device.
Reclaim your smartphone with Jolla C2 The Jolla C2 isnβt for everyone. Itβs for those who believe their privacy is their own to control, who value trust over shortcuts, and who have the courage to make their own way.
@zillion I would kill for an open source android tablet with reasonable specs. I feel like android is pretty feature complete right now. Freeze it at the current version. Fix security bugs and thatβs all I need.
This explains why installing the early access Obsidian APK files got weirder a week or two ago. It prompted warnings I had never seen before that were overrideable. I guess they stop being overrideable soon. I guess like you I will explore Graphene on the phone I only use to download games from WatchAFL.
I feel like this is meant to point out that android is open source and that, if phones worked the way laptops do, we'd be able to just install a fork of android.
I'm surprised that they are doing this now, just that it feels like the global political tide is turning against Big Tech lock-in...
Can't imagine this is going to go over well in Europe, and they already got hit with something like $4B in fines last month. Killing 3rd-party app stores (however unpopular they may be with most users) is a real bad look.
I wonder what the strategy is going to be for Googleβpoint at Apple and yell "but you let *THEM* do it!" ?
Ugh, I just read up on that and while I don't think it's as straightforward as outlawing or banning bootloader unlocking, that's certainly the approach that device manufacturers seem poised to take, since it's the easiest way for them to conform to the regulation.
I assume it's a shitty unintended consequence of a badly designed rule, but that's without knowing how corrupt the EU regulatory process is. (If it was coming out of the US FCC, I'd probably assume the opposite at the moment.)
However, one small bit of progress is that, compared to 10 or even 5 years ago, it's much easier to call up a device manufacturer in China or Taiwan and have them make you a short run of custom handheld devices to whatever specifications you'd like.
It's not economical if you only want to buy one or two (of a truly custom design), but if you're willing to buy dozens or hundreds, it's not like you need to be Samsung to make a smartphone anymore.
But 1) They still gotta have an OS. 2) in the US, we gotta deal with tariffs on all that now, making it 2x or more as expensive, 3) most of the major US carriers require your phone to be one they have personally approved.
Some of the smaller carriers are exceptions to this but, at least where I live, my options are verizon and ATT, and both are only offering esims which will only work on devices they've approved.
It's not *impossible* to route around, but it's harder than I'd expect anyone who lives nearby to undertake.
Yeah, I don't like eSIMs for a bunch of reasons, but as long as devices continue to have physical SIM slots (which is admittedly going to become more of an issue as time goes by), you can drop an eSIM-to-pSIM adapter into them.
Most of the ones I've seen generally have a companion app that will let you load and switch between multiple eSIMs on a single card, as well.
esim.me/ seems to be a popular choice, but there are lots straight out of Shenzhen too.
If you pick the right baseband / cellular modem, you can also change the IMEI to whatever value you want. (A *friend* of mine may have a bunch of Netgear LTE pucks that report themselves as iPhones to the cell network, for... testing purposes. Thanks, Quectel!)
But in general, I expect there's going to be a widening gulf between people who know enough about hardware to make the phone do what they want, and normies who are going to take it in the tradesmans' from the cellular companies. Such is deregulation.
@matthew i would love to dump android, but to use fiber i would need to increase the number of storage batteries i have. Cell connection is middling to poor at best. I would like to move to a linux moblie phone, even if all i can do with it is voice and text.
When you couple this with the recent change in the EU outlawing unlocking bootloaders, the DMCA in the US making any kind of digital tinkering illegal if Washington says so, and the various Chat Control and other "For the Children" legislation ...
We're shuffling full steam ahead into a surveillance machine the likes of which are unprecedented.
I suspect they're going to get the same sort of pushback that Windows is with Windows 11 - people aren't going to abandon Android, they're going to perch on the last "good" update that they can and rely on community patches and updates and unofficial forks to keep them alive.
And hopefully this protest with our dollars will mean something, but even if it doesn't it'll at least buy us some time until something new and better rises to fill the vacuum.
I suspect it's one of those things, not unlike piracy - we've always had the technology to do custom firmware and jailbreaking, it just stopped being a necessity once the carriers and Android codebase stopped being antagonistic towards their own users. But that technology has never gone away, there's still a thriving hobbyist community that's been lurking in the background maintaining the old ways.
And just like many of us old guard have dusted off our tricorns as streaming world has gotten more and more "all the worst parts of cable, but now with added extra bad stuff"-y, I am betting that we'll be seeing a resurgence and renaissance for Cyanogen or whoever the prime de-Googler is nowadays
UK feels likely to insist upon a digital ID "card" which will effectively mandate carrying Android or IOS. And quite probably handing it unlocked to every cop and city official.
I haven't left completely (obviously) but I have specifically built out a tech stack that is offline first and that I use whenever I can get away with it.
@daniel I read that one a while ago. Varoufakis is brilliant.
(I don't *quite* agree with the premise that technofeudalism is something distinct from capitalism; I view it as a variant of capitalism. Capitalism has always had feudal aspects to it; what else is a corporation but a little privately-held kingdom?)
@datarama I think so. Iβm still processing what I think about some of his views, but the comparisons he made to feudalism are just so visible when you start looking at it that way.
@datarama I was in Norway recently and found it to be the same way. The transit system and many businesses relied on apps, no cards, a nightmare for MIL whose phone company (verizon) insisted she wasn't eligible to purchase an international data plan (??). It took *hours* out of our trip getting the family set up with apps to exist there. I was surprised bc this is a clear equal access issue that I imagined would be better managed there than in USA.
@leighms @datarama you can have a tablet or second phone as a backup - I happened to have both available.
I left Denmark about 2 years ago after living there for almost 7 years - the digital system was damned convenient.
Yes, Danes are typically more trusting in government and in general it works pretty well over there.
The US is a bit nuts right now and it got there without anywhere near the level of digitization they have in Denmark. Every company has their own, slightly different mechanism method of authentication and that leads to confusion for users. The MitID was used by so many companies and social services that authenticating was trivial.
@datarama All fine and dandy until you lose your phone or it stops working. Older folk may struggle with phones.
This will be all of us at some point.
I lost my phone a few weeks ago and it was challenging. I do have a laptop and tried to order a phone - the bank wanted send me a verification code by text.
Sometimes it's demoralising how I take steps to safeguard my sensitive data only to have my government deliberately hand it over to US megacorps without my consent.
activity pub/fediverse might not be as efficient or whatever but i think it has a long life ahead of it because it doesn't seem as vulnerable to political capitulation like all of the corpo socials right now
Working on a simple #web site for a client, and I'm trying to balance keeping it from becoming a bloated mess of unnecessary code, and minimizing the amount of unnecessary work I have to put into it.
For one feature they want, I'm tempted to install #jQuery. It feels like unnecessary bloat, but it makes the process easier. How much overhead does it really add?
God damn it! I just got turned away from the lab because the card they gave me for the blood work is expired. The doctor wants these tests every three months for the rest of my life, but every nine months I have to get him to re-confirm that he still wants them because reasons.
the last time i had a blood test at a proper lab place (given my weight) i had to go out of my way for i passed out and then felt bad for like 2 weeks.. i hope yours goes better than that when you do get it
@AdiposeOverclocked Yeah, I have a habit of fainting around needles. It's usually fine if I'm laying down though. The doctor wrote on the form that it's a perpetual thing, but their damn cards expire anyway.
I've been agonizing over posting this for like 46 minutes now. It started as a reply to one of @FinalGirl's posts (as we're mutuals and her posts give me a glimpse into a side of Mastodon that I don't normally get to see).
So, the meat of what I want to say is that I'd love to have more Black folx in my day-to-day life. There's so much shit that I'm just not privy to because my circles are hella white...and that's fucked up.
At least on Fedi I get to hear about some of the issues the Black community faces, but I also feel like I can't do much other than *try* not to be one of the problematic white folx while boosting Black voices into my circles.
Why the agonizing? Because I know about the three types of Queer Allyβ’, and I assume Black folx deal with something similar.
- Type 1 is "okay with you being queer", but will probably vote against you if it lowers the price of eggs.
- Type 2 puts up a "love is love" sign and congratulates themselves on being such a good allyβthey might even know some queer folx.
- Type 3 has queer friends and family because it's a normal thing to have, supports them like they would anyone they really cared about, and listens to queer voices in their lives when they say there are problems. They may not always "get it", but they actively try.
The problem is that the ratio of the three is like 100:10:1 (if I'm being *really* generous).
I want to be that third type. I worry that I'm that second type. But I know it's safest for Black folx to assume I'm the first type (or worse) because that's just how the numbers workβespecially when the cost of misplaced trust is much higher than the benefit of a potential friend.
I worked in the tech sector from 84 through 22. Everywhere that I worked was very inclusive and I worked with a lot of queer folx and never gave it much thought. My eldest child came out to us in High School and I thanked them for letting us know (it helps understand their lives) and I let THEM know it didn't change anything about how much we loved them or supported them. As a result I find myself unable to understand folks who "react" when they learn someone is queer.
I'm not "liking" β this because I actually don't like it. I hate it. But other than that...
I'm right there with you, sibling! This is *exactly* how I've been feeling about the dearth of Black folks on here for years. I want to help, but I know how I look, and I know it means I look untrustworthy. And I don't blame Black people for that.
I have many of the same worries - but not limited to that group. I grew up in Scandinavia with everyone being white, cis and straight. We had one gay dude and two adopted Asians in the entire community *.
My racism and blindness to it is ingrained from childhood and something I have to actively combat - and I fear, I fail all too often.
*I later learned another story, but that was how it felt back then and how it was -told-.
I worry about this too. For all that I try to be a good ally, I basically live my life in a privileged little bubble that is pretty much exclusively white or British Asian, very cis (think I know maybe two trans people IRL? More on Fedi, natch), and occasionally queer in an affluent-middle-aged-lesbians-in-Volvos sort of way. I like to think I'm a good person, but I'm rarely actually faced with any kind of significant moral challenge.
I wonder how much of the invisibility of harassment comes from federation/decentralization.
I will often see someone complaining about the replies to their post and think "but all of these seem fine" before clicking through to the home instance and seeing the ones that did not get federated over to my instance.
I know there was some work recently to fix the "get all replies to this post" code and I wonder if it's changed anything there
I feel like there's another likely element at play for Fedi too. Plenty of us here are marginalized ourselves whether it be because of our sexuality, gender identity, religion or lack-there-of, and/or disability status.
As a result, a lot of us are in a position where we have the privilege of being white, abled or abled passing, and have given up some of our privilege in order to be who we are.
Plenty of us come from bigoted upbringings. Arguably, I would say that any white person has come from a bigoted upbringing whether it be obvious or not. I'm from Mississippi and from a part of it that is overwhelmingly black. So in my case you'd have to actually be trying to miss it instead of being allowed the freedom of ignorance that comes from being raised in a whitetopia where you could live you whole life and never see a person of color more times than you could count on one hand.
As a result, when we move from privilege to being more marginalized, I think a lot of us look at that and think that makes us the minority whisperer that can relate to anyone of marginalized status. A lot of us don't do the work and as a result we have problematic behaviors and because we're also marginalized we don't listen and learn as we should in order to be able to do that work.
I am one of a small minority of white people in the US who will know what it's like to go to school with people who don't look like you, to have had mentors who don't look like you, and to have authority figures in local government who do not look like you. I understand why black people have to code switch because I have actually had to code switch in my life. People accept you better if you engage with them in a way that they recognize and feel comfortable with.
All that said, I cannot speak for black people. I can talk about a minority experience because I am a minority, but only for the specific minorities I am a part of. I may have a fraction of an experience that's in common with the black experience but that's from the other side of things and due to whiteness, people who have had experiences like mine can use those experiences to further justify the bigotry they were raised on.
There are a bunch of us who are supportive on paper, have some means of relating, and will then talk over black people anyway because we think our marginalization makes us special.
What I find, as someone trying to move from type (2) to type (3), is that it is important to do several things: A) Follow and Boost Black voices (or better BIPOC) -- they are the experts. B) If you've been doing (A) and a type (1) person is being vocal about being right ("not ALL white people ... for example), talk about how you learned to listen without getting out of joint about it. C) Basically, teach type (1) and (2) about how to move to (3): that shouldn't be the job of which ever minority we are trying to help. D) Report any abusers/nazis. You can report on behalf of someone else, and more people reporting may get a faster response. E) Again, listen and boost!
@Retreival9096 the BIPOC folks I follow have mostly gone silent. I don't know if they left Fedi entirely or just don't bother. This place was hostile and when they pointed it out, they were told the equivalent of "it works for me" or "can't reproduce, won't fix".
I reiterate that white people should believe BIPOC people when they report abuse, especially when they have receipts. Don't downplay it or excuse it or be like, "lol switch instances". Report those who abuse, no matter who they are. Tell abusers to STFU or GTFO and fucking mean it.
Just picked up a $3 "secure" lock from the dollar store. Let's see how long it takes me to get it open. I love how the diagram on the back shows six pins but I can tell by just looking at the key that it's four.
Not gonna lie, this lock is giving more difficulty than I expected. The shape of the key hole is making it difficult for me to get consistent torque, and everything in the lock feels mushy, making it hard to get a feel for what's going on inside.
So far, in my absolute newbie opinion, this $3 lock is outperforming my $10 Master lock. Who'd have guessed?
Broke down and tried the key, just to be sure I hadn't damaged the inside of the lock like I did my last dollar store lock. It works but feels mushy even opening it with the key. Despite my difficulties defeating it so far, it certainly doesn't feel like a quality lock.
The biggest problem I'm having with this new lock is that my tension bar keeps slipping like so:
When it does this, it doesn't leave enough room for the pick to move around freely. I've tried a using a wider tension bar, but while it doesn't slip, it also crowds out the pick just on its own.
I'm starting to think that the solution is a narrower tension bar. I just don't have one is all, and with the Canada Post strike, I'm gonna have some trouble getting one.
Just went back to picking my Master lock briefly for a change of pace (and to rebuild some confidence). A thing I hadn't noticed until just now is how small the keyway is on the new lock. I put my pick back in the old one and there's so much room for activities!
It doesn't look like that much of a difference but it really is. I think that "mushy" feeling I was feeling was the resistance from my pick scraping ever so slightly on the sides of the keyway.
@π °π »π Έπ ²π ΄ (ππ¦) I think I understand what you're saying about the purple one, but I'm havng difficulty holding the lock, the tension bar, and the pick with only two hands. π
@π °π »π Έπ ²π ΄ (ππ¦) Oh, I will figure this out. I'm down the rabbit hole now. I'm considering possibly filing one of my lesser used tension bars down to try to get it to fit better.
Has anyone ever used those "talking buttons" with their pets (especially cats)? Katy's YouTube algorithm keeps pushing them, but it seems kinda Ouija board-esque. To be clear, I'm not afraid of angering spirits or anything; I just wonder how much of it is actual communication and how much is people just projecting their own thoughts onto random button presses.
@silverwizard You wuold think so, but in this case, it was just that they wanted a really precise measurement. As @Judy Anderson pointed out, I don't know why they didn't just go with 7/8 of a cup, except that perhaps they didn't expect anyone to have something that could measure in eighths of a cup.
In their defense, my measuring cup didn't have that mark. I just went half way between the 3/4 and 1 cup marks.
Busting out #LibreCAD to design a logo for a client. Every time I use it I have to re-learn how. #AutoCAD has trim an extend commands to trim and extend lines. In LibreCAD, they're both trim for some reason.
Open ai (capitalized like that) has just emailed me from a .ru domain, telling me that I need to update my payment details to continue using their "Premium" service that I never subscribed to.
I love how when PHP fails on this project it just gives me a blank page rather than an any kind of useful error message, essentially "something bad happened, you figure it out."
@Matthew Skala I'm 99% certain it's a mismatched brace bracket issue. I just had to take a break because this whole thing is making me want to yeet my computer into the sun.
It wasn't supposed to involve PHP in the first place.
Watching a YouTube video about "fake foods" and the announcer was talking about how Velveeta isn't legally considered to be cheese, but "admittedly makes for a great queso".
PROLONGED EXPOSURE TO SOLID DHMO CAUSES SEVERE TISSUE DAMAGE. GASEOUS DHMO CAN CAUSE SEVERE BURNS. ACCIDENTAL INHALATION OF DHMO EVEN IN SMALL QUANTITIES CAN CAUSE DEATH.
I think, in American English, "queso" is a type of dip/sauce that is _primarily_ cheese-ish. This is opposed to Spanish (Hispanic or Castilian) where "queso" IS cheese.
But, maybe I've just been beaten down my the internet for being to "prescriptive". In any case, people often use language in ways that don't match my understanding, and it certainly doesn't mean _they_ are wrong/flawed.
@BoydStephenSmithJr absolutely. We all speak our own language, I think, with some tolerance for variance. Everything outside that is wrong.
I would argue people who speak more than two languages come around to the point that there is no "wrong". Just failure to convey meaning in a particular context.
I need to get more locks. I'm getting too familiar with the one I've been picking over and over. Oddly though, I'm finding that the pins don't always bind in exactly the same order. Is that normal? #locksport
I just successfully picked my first lock. It was actually a little scary how quickly I got it open. I can only imagine how quickly someone who knows what they're doing could do it. #locksport
@Paul Martin It was a Master 140.* I don't know the name of the technique, but it basically involves using as light a pressure as possible on the tension bar and just feeling around the pins with the pick. Sometimes it works straight away, other times I have to fiddle with it for a while. I'm not very consistent yet. Nevertheless, for one day of practice, I'm pretty satisfied with the result.
* This was recommended to me as a beginner-friendly lock.
@Paul Martin Yeah, my kit came with a couple rakes, but I've not successfully used them. I find I get a better feel for what's going on inside the lock with the single pin approach anyway though.
YouTube just recommended for us a video about the transit system in the region I've lived in my whole life. It felt weird because the whole thing was footage of familiar places, which is not something I'm accustomed to in a random* YouTube video.
* Okay, not random because YouTube obviously knows where I live and that likely informs their algorithm.
