The good parts of Reddit came from Aaron Swartz. Everything since then has been these guys trying to squeeze as much money out as possible (remember Reddit Coins?).

I owe much of my career to trying to set up Linux From Scratch two decades ago. While it's a much better experience installing Linux nowadays, there's a lot to be said for the experience spending your weekend debugging a system will give you.

What you think of as important may change over time, as well - with the solution as written, you'd need to decide what the "subject" is at compress time, but what if you later realise that's the last ever photo of grandma, or the AI decides that you were wearing different shoes than you actually were. Worst case, you need to rely on some detail in a photo later, like to absolve you of a crime.

I'd swap out Roosevelt for Nixon - Teddy's interventionism set us on a bad path, but at least we got national parks and antitrust laws out of it. Nixon was just pure shit show start to finish.

Clancy Brown does Lex Luthor for DC and Mr. Krabs from Spongebob.

Normal rekeying is pretty easy, if you're careful - push out the core (the "follower" will hold your spring pins in place), dump out the old key pins, swap to the new key, and put in the new key pins, replace the core. Even when I've completely screwed it up (pushed the follower too far so the springs came out, mixed all the key pins together so I had to work out which was which, and more) it's not been more than a 10-minute job.

"Miracle Workers" hasn't been mentioned yet, it has a similar vibe, romantic comedy, some mild philosophy, very upbeat. Each season is a different storyline with (almost) the same cast, so if the first season doesn't grab you try the next. The creator had an earlier show "Man Seeking Woman" as well, that's fun too.

yy to copy, dd to cut, p to paste. Need to move 5 lines at once? No problem, move to the first line and use d5d, and p to paste it. Vim gets a bad rap for being confusing, but it's so fast to move text around once you get the hang of it.

They moved Ctrl-Alt-Backspace behind a config iirc - too easy to hit by accident.

Having just finished up 6 episodes on G. Gordon Liddy, knowing nothing about him beforehand, I second the recommendation of Behind the Bastards.

A Strobe Tuner is fantastic if you play music. I've been using the open source one by Adam Foster for years, but heard the A4Labs version is good too.

Something that took me a while to realise is that you don't necessarily need to be eating rubbish food to gain weight, just too much. I think there's this stereotype of the guy chugging down sugary drinks all day with his greasy burgers in between handfuls of sweets, but that's not the case for most people.

What was a big help for me was getting a food scale, and working out what size portions I should be eating - particularly for carby things like rice and pasta I found I was way off on my estimates of what a decent serving should be.
