What was the worst case of dejá vu you have ever experienced?
  • Not sure if it's deja vu, but sometimes I've get some dreams where I think I've dreamt it before. Before I can confidently say that I've actually dreamt it before, but now I'm not sure.

    So whenever this happens now and I'm aware of it, I'm in this weird state where I don't know what to feel.

  • In your opinion, what's the best cheap laptop (with USB C charging)
  • Still using my 2014/2015 model thinkpad (bought used in 2019), still feels brand new.

    Durability is the game, and since they're usually for work/ bought by a company for the whole office they are usually taken care of when bought used.

  • Did I install this Range Hood Correctly? It Makes a Lot of Noise Due to Some Vibrations.

    What can I do to at least dampen the vibrations?

    Somebody said use some rubber but I don't know the specifics.

    I May Have Carpal Tunnel Syndrome, What Specialty Doctor Should I Consult With?

    ---

    I did the Phalen's Test (you should try it as well, it's just a 60 second test) and I think I have Carpal Tunnel.

    I have to schedule an appointment to a specific doctor to avail my HMO (not US), I just don't know which specialty? (e.g. occupational therapy, physical therapy, gynecologist, pediatrician, etc.)

    Feeding ChatGPT 3.5 a Single Document (about 8000 words) to Train for Accurate Answers to Questions Relevant to Said Document? --- Can someone point me towards resources, starting points, etc. that would help someone achieve this goal of creating something akin to a chatbot that would give accurate answers based on a single document.

    If there's an existing tool out there that has this capabilities, that would be much preferred.

    *** I forgot to add, we would be able to use chatgpt 3.5 16k.

    Is There No Way to Automatically Record Phone Calls Anymore?

    Is There No Way to Automatically Record Phone Calls Anymore? --- I'm still using an old phone (LG G7 ThinQ), and their Phone app has a built-in recording.

    If I wanted to use another phone app (or when I upgrade phones), I would lose this feature. And I have looked (albeit not too much) and found that there's no way to record phone calls unless you root or it has to be built-in on the phone like some Samsung or Xiaomi phones.

    Young Adults, How Frequent Do You See Your Friends?

    --- Juggling between Work, Family, Rest, and Traffic, seeing my friends once every two months is already good.

    I'm just curious if there are others who actually see their friends at least once a week. How do you do it?

    UQ Holder (Negima 2) Finale Discussion

    UQ Holder (Negima 2) Finale Discussion --- All in all, I liked the series, it had its ups and downs but just expanding the end of Negima was worth the read.

    I may have to re-read the last 15 or so chapters of UQH though (43 year time skip), because I just skimmed most of it due to the convuluted plot and heavy expositions.

    I hate Ba'al the most, he felt like a shoe-horned side mini-boss with a lot of undeserved screen time. It felt like Ken Akamatsu added him in so that the finale would be Eva/Ialda(mage of the beginning) vs Touta and Negi.

    Ialda was already a great villain, he was built up for so long that another villain felt insignificant compared to Ialda.

    I do agree that Negi + Touta vs Eva/Ialda was epic, but maybe Ken Akamatsu have done it differently.

    Can someone else tell me why I'm wrong about Ba'al?

    Also, thoughts on UQ Holder as a whole, and its ending?

    I also believe that it wouldn't be as fun if you haven't read Negima beforehand, thoughts?

    What Does Fabric Conditioner Do? And Should I Use It?

    What Does Fabric Conditioner Do? And Should I Use It?

    I hear people on the internet recommend to not use Fabric Conditioner in their laundry to save the durability of the clothes. In my country, it was the norm to use Fabric Conditioner during laundry so I was at a lost.

    Is it actually necessary?

    Negima! Series Over The Years

    Note: The tail-end of the album are mostly the same because the Non-School Arc Started.

    Just finished reading Negima! and while reading I thought it'd be nice to save all the pages where the class roster was shown (it was mostly shown at the end of the every 2nd volume).

    I know the timeline of Negima! is only about a year and a half, but it still kind of showcases the relation of Negi-Sensei towards his students.

    I kind of wised they stuck with the school arcs, but the "Journey to the Magic World " arc was some real good Shounen Battle Manga.

    I was wondering if UQ Holder would be worth the read.

    What Life Changing Item Can You Buy for Less Than 1000php? 5000php? 10000php?

    What Life Changing Item Can You Buy for Less Than 1000php? 5000php? 10,000php?

    I'll start

    1. 2nd Monitor (WFH setup), I bought mine used in Gilmore at around 2k php. Mas-productive iyong setup kasi pwedeng may meeting sa isang monitor tapos work sa isa pa, and etc.

    2. Range Hood, bought at SM Appliance Store for total 7k php (with installation). Sobrang nakakatulong sa 1 bedroom/studio type condo namin para hindi mainit/mausok sa bahay kapag nagluluto.

    3. NutriBullet Blender 900W, sobrang dali gumawa ng fruit smoothies. Hindi na ako bumibili sa foodpanda. 6k php ko nabili noong sale pero marami namang masmurang blender.

    4. Blackout Curtains, 300php lang isa sa lazada. Sobrang nakakatulong sa pagtulog sa hapon kapag pang-gabi ang duty. Nakakatulong rin naman sa gabi kung gusto niyo ng wala talagang ilaw.

    I guess Kayden being badass moments is coming to a close for now, coming to a "draw" to the world's top 10 even while not using his own techniques.

    Andrei running off was the best idea he'd ever had.

    Do We Have a Way to Give Suggestions for Arena Mode?

    Do We Have a Way to Give Suggestions for Arena Mode? ---

    Coming from TFT, the augment system in Arena is pretty bad.

    1. Augments you looked past comes back when you rer-roll or during other augment rounds. I don't want to see Phenomenal Evil three times in one game.

    2. Some augments shouldn't show up at the later augment rounds like the "You can buy any number of mythic items". Imagine you're full build, 700gold and you got that augment. You can't sell 5 legendary items and get 5 mythic, you'll probably only get 4 mythics and be down an item.

    3. I wish they'd implement the better re-roll system as well, where you can re-roll individual augments instead.

    Can Anyone Recommend me Magic/Superhero School or Guild Stories?

    Can Anyone Recommend me Magic/Superhero School or Guild Stories?

    Here's what I've read so far.

    1. Worm by Wildbow (Superhero "guild")

    2. Mage Errant (Magic School)

    3. Harry Potter Series (Magic School)

    4. Vita Nostra (Magic School)

    5. Super Powereds (Superhero School)

    6. The Circle Series by Sara Elfgren (Magic within normal School)

    --- I've also read The Magician but I didn't liked it. ---

    I may have forgotten some other books but hopefully this narrows it down.

    Can Someone Explain Gemini (2017) to Me?

    Can Someone Explain Gemini (2017) to Me?

    Spoilers ahead

    ---

    I just finished watching it and was confused. Either the mystery part was lacking or I'm missing something.

    1. What were the coins about? Was it just a red herring?

    2. Was it really just self-defense? or was it premeditated or something?

    3. Why did the detective insisted on watching the interview even though the case was officially closed? ---

    I still enjoyed the film, it was visually pleasing, it had a unique vibe to it. I especially love the city light scenes in Travy's house.

    I was all caught up with the mystery up until the "twist" where it was actually the fan who died. I was waiting for something more cathartic, but apparently that was it. It just left me wanting for more.

    7/10 maybe 7.5 if someone explain the ending to me better.

    Anybody Else Heard of Death to Smoochy (2002)?

    Just Finished Watching Death to Smoochy (2002)

    I didn't know what to expect coming in to this film. All I knew that it had Robin Williams, and I found the film from a clip of him dancing through the streets and faceplanting to the wall (btw just watch the whole thing, it's a great love letter to the late Robin Williams).

    I was disappointed that the MC wasn't Robin but was Ed Norton who plays Smoochy. Only for a bit though because Ed killed it and greatly portrayed this bundle of ethics character that had an anger management problem deep deep deep down.

    The plot was wack but the characters and their interactions with one another were the highlight of the film.

    Robin Williams still played a significant part in the movie, but I wished he was used better. He was eclectic as Rainbow Randolph, never really felt scary as a villain but maybe that was the point.

    Anyways it was an enjoyable experience, 7/10.
