That moment when your flight is canceled, the next one is tomorrow, you’ll stay the night in the fanciest hotel you’ve ever seen, you enter the room, are in awe, and then immediately spill water all over the place because you didn’t realize the weird sculpture on the table was meant for flowers and turned it upside down.
I’m really not made for fancy stuff.

Its just water. Use your 100 towels from the bathroom and dont worry about it. What did the sculpture look like?

Such a fancy hotel but flowers not included lol

At least you made a fairly minor mistake. It could've been much more embarrassing.

Nothing comes to mind, other than having no idea what the warm towel was for, the one time I got to fly first class.

This sounds like a Baskets moment. Have you seen the show, Baskets? If anyone is a fan of Zack Galifeknifukises, you might like that show. Louis CK is involved also on the back end. I think its pretty funny.

Embrace it. We stayed in a place with a grass roof in Reykjavik Iceland once. All the hotels were booked and we were in the back of the line!

I would like to see a territory here for all things mechanical. Like cars, trucks, bikes, machines of all types. Any ideas on what that could look like? Anyone interested in founding something like that or have good ideas for it.

There was ~garage for a few months this year.

Thats a decent name. Restarting an existing one, you get to have some history reclaimed. I am guessing it wasn't going super well?
I think Territory owners should be active to get their territory moving, if they want it to thrive, vs. the people just sitting on names hoping it turns into something.

Yeah, looks like the founder wasn’t very active on SN in general.

Thats how it goes. I am guessing some of the stale territories here are paid for life.

The problem with "strong opinions loosely held" is it makes you a burden on anyone that has an interest in correcting your opinions ... which means in practice you'll hold bad opinions longer than you should.
reply
Isn't it the opposite? The "loosely held" part means being open to changing your mind and honestly considering counter points.
reply
24 sats \ 3 replies \ @k00b 2h
Maybe I'm meeting bad practitioners, but the loosely held part is commonly overwhelmed by the strong opinion part.
IME strong opinions only loosen, if ever, 24+ hours after I've exhausted myself combating their "strength." In a single exchange, there's a bias to support one's strong opinion beyond its lifespan.
It's like the "fake it till you make it" of thinking.

Isn't it the opposite?
I guess that's my point. The strong part keeps people from even bothering to try and help loosen opinions.
reply
It sounds like your problem is more that people are full of shit when it comes to their own openness to new information.
I take the "strong opinion" part as meaning that you act as though you really believe it and don't hem-and-haw when expressing your views.

I take the "strong opinion" part as meaning that you act as though you really believe it and don't hem-and-haw when expressing your views.
Fair. But I suspect everyone with strong opinions believes they are intellectually honest and loosely holding them. And when I encounter a strong opinion, I'm taking a more of a risk than I want should I try to help.
I don't know what I'm advocating for exactly, but I don't mind a good hem and haw. It lets me know where I can assist them in forming an opinion.
reply
I don't mind a good hem and haw
As a regular viewer of SNL, I'm aware.
reply
A strong opinion that is loosely held isn't worth much.

THERE IS NO NEED FOR ALL THIS CRAP AWARDS!
This (assmilking) is TOTAL USELESS that is already displayed and "awarded". This contest is like making another "top SN" but voted only by a handful of users, aka voting each others (assmilking each others). that do not represent the whole Top SN (the real one).
Done, here you have already the whole "of the year". And all this is "organized" by the shitcoiner of the year

I went to a gym for a month, what made you decide to take on that challenge?
reply
1 sat \ 1 reply \ @Kontext 11h
My initial goal was to do 100 pushups a day for 7 days. It was surprisingly easy, so I decided I won't stop. So far, I haven't stopped :)
I was already in a pretty good shape and doing yoga pretty much every day tho when I started this.

That's excellent, you are surpassing yourself, that's incredible, keep it up, I hope I can take on that same discipline.
