@dangillmor "but data and algorithmic manipulation!" Well we could just make those things illegal across the board, but that's not what anyone is after is it? Manipulation and harvesting and selling data is fine as long as American companies are doing it.

@amanda @dansinker ok. That's a weird one. If it's the temp differential a shower works just as well. But whatever helps you is fine! I have congenital insomnia.

@dymaxion @rafi0t @whvholst @th we should not say that ella, that would be silly #harumph

@rafi0t @whvholst @th MWAHAAHAHAHAHAH

@whvholst @rafi0t @th i love that raph has caught not using diacritics from his american partner, not the other way around :D

@cstross I think a lot about the Bronze Age collapse these days, but also about how the people who emerged from it were in many ways wiser and better people. not great, but better.

@whvholst @rafi0t @th they are all related to recipes, and the art that comes from suffering 😁

@philipbrewer @ku @stevendbrewer @dansinker sadly i probably have some kind of congenital sleep problem. But good tracking makes a huge difference, in that i am trying to gain minutes on average, not hours.

@ferdifz also the you should not be a dick to my people energy is def highest with judaism.

@ferdifz i mean you could go on with tons more details. and all the religions of the book have.

@futurebird no lies detected

Judaism: God has a favorite diet and it's a weird form of intermittent fasting by category.
Christianity: God has a favorite boy, be nice about him or you're fucked.
Islam: God has a favorite language and thinks you should travel more.

@dansinker meh. I was using a fitbit for years and it was decent but it's in the aquire and kill doom loop now at google

@kissane there is no other solution than digital and media literacy, just as there wasn't for reading and mathematics literacy back in the day. Or now for that matter.

@GustavinoBevilacqua @dansinker well, not much to do with what I was asking about but you do you!

Weird question for @dansinker and all my other insomniac club members out there... damn I forgot the question. Oh wait I remember now. Do y'all use sleep trackers and if you do does the Apple Watch seem unrealistically optimistic? I just feel like it doesn't really catch laying there or intermittent waking as well as other trackers.

To get your adult name, take your childhood first name and replace it with “I’m so” and then change your last name to “tired.”

@dansinker @amanda ohh oh ohh i have another sleep study in a couple weeks! Wish me luck!

@amanda @dansinker oooh you sweet summer child.
