@levelsio im 4/5 because cant get ac right now think its the only thing keeping me sane as my business implodes

How you should live - giant glass windows to get sunlight - AC to cool to perfect temperatures - healthy meats, vegetables and fruits (whole foods) - work in your own optimal space - exercise as your medication

@DanielLockyer Have you heard of the dodentocht? It's a 100km walk in Belgium but you can run it to troll the Belgians

Yep (myself included)

@jelmerdeboer @levelsio HaVe U tRRIedD deADLifUting

@levelsio mmmmm ritalin 10mg

How they want you to live - tiny windows to save energy - no AC to save the climate - vegan plant-based food to save the animals - work non-stop to pay tax for governments to waste it - fully medicated so you don't complain

@levelsio silly but hacky idea, and i know you like hacky ideas: hire daniel to run 5 meter infront of your car with a spray bottle filled with window cleaning liquid if it works you have clean windows if it doenst you have a small daniel sized dent

My Tesla Y 2025 windshield wiper fluid doesn't come out anymore, when I press it, it sprays it out of the bumper Seems like the hose is lose? How I fix this? I already removed the top part under the hood, but the problem isn't there, it's more below near the front bumper That part is fixed with some screws though, should I open it? THANKS

@levelsio paging @_avdept

@levelsio is it enough to bring back the goat @pretzelhds and many other great people that have left? time will tell

Hello mutuals 👋 Nice to see you again after 3 years It's great to have you all back on my timeline 🥹

@thdxr accidentally posted an internal slack message on x??? classic

please i'm begging you show me something you built not another "this is my custom agent setup" post where you pretend you're doing something smarter than vanilla claude code please

@levelsio @_ptonik lmao this east / central europe thing reminds me of people in maastricht pretending they are a part of the netherlands they always bring it up

@_ptonik Only people from Czechia and Poland think they live in Central Europe 😂 It's just Eastern Europe for everyone else

🇪🇺 The new trend in Europe now is building new houses with tiny windows, so that they stay cool and don't need to install or use AC to cool them "Less sunlight = less heat = less cooling = less energy use" is their thinking But there's a reason people buy modern design villas that are floor to ceiling glass (I did) You want as much sunlight as possible coming in for your health, because your circadian rhythm depends on it, improving your sleep quality so you produce melatonin at the right time and fall asleep easily and stay asleep all night Sunlight also affects your mood of course, it heavily boosts serotonin and decreases symptoms of depression Having wide views of the sky, nature or ocean also have a measurable effect on lowering your stress So Europe is now building houses with tiny windows all so they don't need to install AC, while the new home owner inside will slowly become miserable, stressed, depressed, start sleeping bad and as a second order effects of that become sick (but of course then you can sell them pills) The conclusion is the same I had during the ongoing heatwave in Europe where tens of thousands of people are still dying every month because they're not allowed to install AC: Europe now cares more about energy use than people's lives Degrowth is a completely delusional cult affecting all of Europeans lives now!

@DanielLockyer really makes you wonder why they didnt do it sooner

insane X algo improvement, way better

@sobedominik @thekitze @robj3d3 i agree its great, you end up using a different part of your brain you use hands, learn something new, no typing its great instead of the 24/7 hyperconnected social media AI information overflow slop machine

i’ve become more and more the person that when i was young was considered to be “lame” i’m fixing random stuff around my house, learned about motorcycles and became a half assed mechanic, manual work is so good for tech entrepreneurs imo. it’s so nice to switch off but still be challenged in a way

It is a mystery to me why lots of countries are looking at a wealth tax / capital gains tax to guarantee government income. It is almost like they expect tax revenue from labor to go down in the near future.

@sobedominik @thekitze @robj3d3 i think this would solve anxiety for 95% of people

@pbertrand_dev @thekitze @robj3d3 just sign up for some work at a construction site. problem solved.

So I dont know @thekitze and @robj3d3 and dont know their situation well enough to give advice. But what is really helping me stay sane in the most stressful period of my life is just taking a backpack, filling it with heavy weights and walking in nature for 2-3 hours.

@mauricekleine @thekitze @robj3d3 i just want to be strong

@pbertrand_dev @thekitze @robj3d3 Carrying heavy weights into nature? Bro, what are you training for?! ☠️😵

@saasisson @thekitze @robj3d3 yup

@pbertrand_dev @thekitze @robj3d3 Another one I would highly recommend : drop the phone and stop Twitter for a few days Crazy how this hurts my sleep and makes any recovering time disappear.

@forgebitz @promptwatch 🚀🚀🚀 time flies

@nikitabier Hi friends

We're rolling out a small tweak to boost visibility of your posts to your mutuals (people who you follow back). We noticed this data was missing from the algo and it made your friends appear less in your replies. This resulted in the reply section feeling more like a battleground with people you don't recognize. This should also help clusters form around interests more easily, which many people have asked for.

@nestersk I agree. Tried it because I think people are more likely to click on a local domain. Before I only had a dot com and I think local has extra value these days. I did do the href lang thing and a redirect after changing from subdirectories.

@pbertrand_dev Not sure it's worth splitting the domains vs. subdirectories for authority, but did you at least hreflang them to avoid some odd cannibalization?

Still getting some impressions, very little clicks I did split into a Dutch domain and an English domain which ruined the stats a bit

@powerbottomson congrats powerbottomson
