Autistic and neurodivergent people are the only ones I can even begin to relax enough to have a conversation. I have a lot of baggage and being undiagnosed in school was extremely damaging. I love to talk, but I make people uncomfortable. So I usually just sit quietly somewhere, move seats/tables as bigger groups want the space, and eventually leave once the anxiety/torture becomes too overwhelming.

I grew up in Texas. I understand your confusion. Houses are oriented a little differently here, but think of the “mudroom” as the garage. You know how you have a side door and a front door? And the side door is usually sort of attached to the garage, basement, or maybe laundry room? It is just that. A lot of people have a spot right inside that door, off to the side, for piling shoes. Otherwise you have a rack when you walk in, or you can use the closet right by your front door. It isn’t really a separate room. Good idea to have mats on both sides of the door. For whatever reason people are obsessed with split levels up here, so there is easier access to basement type areas.

And I hope she will take this as a very painful lesson that other people are not there for her sole amusement. That actions have consequences.

Upstate New York or maybe Michigan. Just not Buffalo. That is some snow hell at times. As for driving in snow in general? It really isn’t that bad and I moved up here from the South. Just buy good quality tires, or if you are really paranoid, snow tires. I have always regretted my life decisions when I got shitty whatever the crooked mechanics had on sale tires. I have never needed chains in the areas I live in. You cannot be any worse than every other idiot in snow. Promise. You will be fine.

So they are across the street from each other right? Do people from the other company end up at the same lunch places? Maybe ask somebody who works there what it is really like. Either way, never stop looking. More money is more money, especially at that end of the pay scale.

I am really bad at just making shit up and it never occurs to me to lie. I can consciously withhold things, but my default is far too honest. However, do I have the ability to lie? Definitely. If I need to, there is some emotionless place I go to mentally and I just lie. That’s it. Just lie.

This is so damn wholesome. Thank you fellow humans for helping this person and even offering to pay. Why I am cutting onions this early in the day is a mystery.

I started 30 minute backups earlier. It updates from the yuzu repo and downloads all of the releases from yuzu-mainline if there are new ones. Anything else I should also backup?

I wouldn’t have a clue where to put this stuff on the interwebs, but if shit happens, I will be 1 of many backups I guess.

What is even more painful is seeing friends glued to TikTok on their phones all day when they have STEM degrees. I didn’t grow up in a typical household, so I have a hard time relating to other women, but I don’t get it either. Do your friends with kids seem to be this way more than those without?

I wonder if the $300 is sort of like extra startup money to get better hardware, infrastructure, software improvements in the short term. I honestly have no idea. I pop on there sometimes to watch the full length videos from YouTube and there is some really great content, but not necessarily enough. Their UI/apps could definitely use some work, though I have not checked recently.

I really hope they continue to run and it looks like I need to catch up on some content. I took a break from most YouTube/TV/etc. I cancelled all of my other subscriptions, but I have no reason to not support a company like Nebula, especially at their price points.

I am not going to debate the ethics of piracy or people’s justifications for or against it. It isn’t productive. I do think this is an instance where you are better off paying for a month than spending a lot of time trying to get it another way. Sometimes, I like to put things in the perspective of I make X dollars an hour, how many man hours did I spend to do X task? Cost benefit analysis. This isn’t always practical, thus the “sometimes”.

Don’t feel bad. I 100% cannot stand not rinsing that shit out immediately. It was even worse as a kid. Only saving grace is water picks sort of make up for it, but I will never be able to use toothpaste the way you are supposed to.

Definitely try the “swipe” navigation. I had no idea the other (old?) navigation scheme existed as it has probably been a decade now. I vaguely remember one of my old phones introducing it, and that was the end of the buttons on the bottom. Did the non-stock versions of Android not do that?

I still miss buttons, but with how tall/wide the screens are, the question is where do you put them. I really need to try and get a smaller phone once this one dies…

It is super easy to cancel. You even get a partial refund if you want it gone today. Wait a couple months and see if you really miss it. Join the piracy gang. Ultimately, you are the product and Internet streaming has turned into cable TV. Take back what little privacy you have left.

Best "holiday"s are the ones just chilling with friends, even if it is remote. Play some video games, go out for a walk, or maybe cook something you haven’t made in a while.

I more or less stopped doing gifts for people. Might get the kiddos something kind of useful or educational. I would rather do an activity than spend money on useless crap.

Look. The warm air feels excellent on my frozen nose. Let my dumb stoner ass enjoy it okay?

I remember when that article came out I had a passing thought that it was probably JBS Grand Island. Low and behold… Not fucking surprised.

I worked at a company that did some upgrades for that system and that place is vile. It was hard not to puke in the parking lot some days and I remember walking around the outside of building (left), and seeing all of the spray downs on the way to the freezer.

I kind of had that happen last week, but I use a waterpick for flossing, which makes a huge difference. I don’t drink soda or eat much sugar, but I was somehow praised by the hygienist and dentist for having such clean teeth when I am bad at doing the whole brush and floss daily. I am not great at habits, but I went to town that morning with the waterpick and passed inspection. Had x-rays too. 😁

However, I do realize I have to do better as this isn’t always the case. For those of you with tight spaces, get a water pick and be done with it.

Sorry, couldn’t help myself on that one. They had to push a button every 108 minutes, which is the sum of “the numbers”, and they had to enter that code. If they don’t enter the code, the world will end. 😁
