That’s something. I worked at Dell for a year a long time ago and I can safely say it was the worst job of my life. Hated everything about it. I was jealous of the grounds keepers id see out my windows. Only lasted about 9 months. However, I still think their computers are decent as far as the big computer manufacturers go. I’d buy one today if I needed to. Although looking into manufacturers like system 76 makes me think I’ll go that route for my next laptop.
Yeah Gmail is the hardest. Just for the sheer amount of logins. Been with it was an invite only beta in like 2005. I got a paid proton account but it’s hard to shake it because I’m constantly needing to log back in with it.
Fwiw, I got on my first adhd meds (generic Adderall )with out any of these “requirements”… I did have a blood test the same day I got my first script but it was just a standard panel for becoming a new patient with my pcp. My new doc at the time just talked to me for about 30 mins and had me do a adhd survey. Also told my doc that I was using medical marijuana previously and she said that it made sense and even supported it. I also drink and listed as such but my level of drinking isnt anything concerning. I might have a six pack of beer a week. I took a chance and found this new doc as my old PCP was an asshat that acted like he never believed anything I was saying. I had stopped using medical marijuan already for a job that still believes weed is like meth or whatever which is annoying but it’s a good job. My doc is my age and gets it… When I described my depression systems as “millennial garden variety depression” she was like “where everything just kinda sucks?” I was like yeah! Find a new doc. This isnt normal. Best of luck. I’m on vyvanse now and its definitely been the best fit for me. I wasn’t diagnosed till my 30s. Wish I would of done this twenty years ago when I realized I was different.
Pretty much the same, captain.
Yeah the media should be ashamed of how that got out of control. It was one broken English quote from a random Israeli soldier without any fact checking.
I am generally uninformed on this conflict beyond reading a a synopsis or history for the pass century or so this week, the agenda on either side seems pretty blatant from the media outlets. Now I haven’t seen Israeli media directly but seeing what us centric media is reporting My god, I watched fox news and they were basically foaming at the mouth and showing the same clips and had a woman that would say the same thing every few hours trying to dehumanize the other side. I watched al Jazeera last night for a few hours and they frame the attack on Saturday as a counter attack (forever recursively correct) overlook what happened as much as possible and frame context to give it a morality pass and generally are trying to downplay how western media is reporting it… I took a look at who owns al Jazeera, it’s state run media from Qatar. We all know foxnews is basically ultra conservatives circle jerk. It’s two sides slinging shit. However, al Jazeera seems to point out the lack of Israeli media allowing any western reporting of what’s really happening in gaza which I 100% agree with. It’s good to get perspective on either sides but to me both western and Arab centric outlets are obviously pushing their agendas.
I acknowledge my ignorance on the complexities on this issue and am only providing my take as someone trying to understand this issue from the woefully biased reporting surrounding this issue.
Yep I’m very impressed with syncthing. I just started using it a few weeks ago.
What’s amusing is I am purposely not paying for bitwarden because of the check against darkweb leaks or whatever type feature when you pay. That’s seems like an anti privacy thing. I understand it’s a good idea albeit seems to expose a lot of information about you. I would like to do vaultwarden but don’t think I can trust self hosting myself without paying monthly for a vps which I don’t want to do. Home Internet hosting seems to unreliable to me for something that important.
Just random thoughts of mine here.
I’ve had a Spotify sub for 10+ years. I’m getting really close to ditching it because imo the app design is getting worse as prices increase… I was super disappointed in the car thing too. Spotube is a really nice alternative that’s foss. Checkout https://spotube.netlify.app/.
I’m in this graph and I like it.
Yeah I’m mostly on my subscription. Go to all to find new content but that’s where I’ll end up blocking communities and depending on the day that’s incredibly annoying to experience.
I think it’s unique that we see more different sides and not just a US echo chamber that reddit was. However some communities of all spectrums have their idiots and communities that brigade stuff are very annoying. The idea that these communities exist is not the problem. I just block what I don’t want to see. I am ready for the block instance by user feature. I have to play wack a mole right now.
Is the pluriverse term a jab at the fediverse? That term seems too coincidental to not be. Equivalating the fediverse to a flavor of the week social media the writer was experiencing?
I just installed pop!_os am I safe?
I do aks. I can’t say love is the right word for it. Lol
Sad to see but not surprising due to his history. He was a brilliant lyricist and I am a big fan of his work. RIP shane.
