The guitar intro to Money for Nothing is reminding me of the guitar intro to Welcome to the Machine

MacBook is light and functional. If you want even lighter, a foldable phone like the Pixel 9 Pro Fold might do the trick. That way, you only have one device to lug around, instead of carrying both a laptop and a phone.

If you enjoy chess, I recommend Lichess

It’s free, open source, no ads, you can play with or without an account, you play against bots or against people of all levels, you can use the app or you can play from the website or you can install the web app

Oh and it loads fast

Enjoy!

• Ask your teammate what he studied to get better
• Watch a lot of good debaters; note what they do that is good
• Watch some bad debaters; note why they were bad
• Debate, debate, debate, even if you have to do it over the phone

I checked two more computers after reading your reply (first time setups) and they all have autoplay off, so I remain skeptical of what you stated.

There are so many trolls and misinformation floating around.

As far as I have seen with those “fresh” installs, your information is not matching the reality here, so I’m moving on to other sources.

I just checked a freshly installed Windows 11 and the autoplay is off by default.

One practical way to informally assess your bilingual level:

You are bilingual when you have a friend who can only speak your second language.

You could look into “attachment style”, and perhaps you are “avoidant” or something similar.

Discussing this with a therapist, or advisor or life coach could probably help you zero in on what’s going and what to do about it.

Are you saying you haven’t taught this to everyone yet?

Sneeze into the fold of your elbow, instead of spraying around the room

That’s actually what they said when they decided to skip the testing on thalidomide.

Every day, in every way, I improve myself

Regarding the concerns you listed, it’s the option that gives you the most control over content and access to it.

All the others are a trade off in exchange for them promoting you.

Modern equivalent to blogs would probably be vlogs (videos on tiktok or other platforms like that)

Blogs are still a thing, check out WordPress.org

Another option is publishing on a place like medium.com

None of the above are optimal regarding your concerns about data collection, etc.

To address that, you could just set up your own personal website, if you don’t mind learning how to do it

I’ve read that humans are the only animals on the planet that can throw objects with a degree of accuracy.

Were you reading some Mormon booklet? Anyway, you were misled, but cheer up, you can probably find better reading material, starting with the several answers you got here.
