Hell, even 13-15 year olds are looking much older. I genuinely saw one in normal clothes, took a guess based on her being around maybe 20. Saw her a day later in school uniform. And only under 16’s wear them.
Really did make me realise I am shit at age guessing.
No, because whilst Linux is a good operating system, and, realistically, apple products are good at what they’re designed to do. Some of the fan base just won’t shut up and just have to insert their views wherever they want.
It’s annoying to see that type of shit. And yes, I’m fully aware hard core windows users will do it too, but here, I haven’t seen one comment where they’ve forced themselves into an unrelated question, unless it was as backstop or something.
I fully understand yoir point of view, but could it also be because their minds are linked, at least in some way, so thay instead of being focused on just one there’s two sharing the load, like, how a single core CPU could run something, but if you start doubling the cores, it makes it easier. Maybe if Rose had a child as well, that’d make it easier as well.
American women came into where I work. Asked her aboir her a cent. She told me, then said she tries to hide it. I just said, “Well, it’s a really nice accent.” Which, for me, is absolutely out there, and it just felt natural(?) To say
I’m in a nasty frame of mind right now, and this is what my 'tism brain decided to laser focus on for several hours. I’m mad that my light bulbs cost 10x more than they used to, and don’t last any longer, and my power bill is higher than ever....
I’ve had Philips hues for a few years now. And they’re still going strong.
Also. I will vouch for smart lights. Unlike some smart appliances, I can fully see the advantage to them. Laid in bed all comfy and can’t be arsed moving but need to turn them off? Have no bullets for your designated light turning off gun? Just open the app, and you can turn them off, or whatever colour that works for you. Or just tell Alexa to do it.
Ahh, okay. I haven’t seen anything about cloud stuff, but I don’t really change the colour much myself, in the bedroom at least, and the times I have domne, it’s just through the app. But I do have an account for out of home use.
I use Corsair and the desktop app to control the ones in my other room, though. But the last time I set that up, it was just the push button.
Also, you need an account if you link it to alexa. But that’s the only ones I know of that need an account.
In my opinion, I find the use of the light strip to be really helpful, as I can just set it to either match my pc lights or what’s happening on my main monitor. In the bedroom, I like having the option to dim then, or change them to a softer? Or more subtle colour if I’m watching a movie and eating. I feel it makes it a bit cosier.
They’re those things where it feels like you don’t need them until after you have them, and it’s all much easier.
I’m pretty sure you can set automations up as well so that they just do stuff. You can get them to get brighter as you’re waking up. You can set them to do stuff at certain times, such as sun rise and sunset, and to come on when you get home. And some others.
If, by some miracle, I ever get a girlfriend, and we’ve been together for ages, and we’ve got that extreme comfortability, I’m definitely trying this once.
I’m upgrading because my phone is losing (lost?) support. I use a OnePlus 7 Pro and love it and wouldn’t bother upgrading otherwise. I’d appreciate some recommendations of android phones you like, please....
Honest question. Where is all this bloat stuff coming from for Samsung?
Like, I genuinely haven’t noticed any software that I didn’t want installed. Sure, there are a few pieces that I’ve kept but don’t use, but nearly all of it can be uninstalled unless it’s stuff that’s actually needed.
I didn’t manage it in an argumentative way. Sorry. I’ve seen quite a few comments about that. But I haven’t noticed it, so I’m trying to see if it’s like a provider issue or a country thing. Or just whatever.
Ohhh. I understand. Thinking about it, i can see how some apps could be considered blaotware. Like Facebook, which I think is auto installed? Could be wrong there. And a few others, but they’re like actual things for it. I just don’t use them.
I’m gonna be honest, I fully thought you meant like a lot of absolutely useless apps. So, I’m sorry about that.
Sometimes, I get the dreams where someone comes up to me and asks for my number or something. Then, when I find myself in that deja vu moment. It never happens.
And I’m just like, yeah, I don’t believe those ones.
I think I’d be the opposite. I’d be like, “It still sucks, and the loneliness hits harder than ever, fella. But when you’re 24, you’ll get something that’ll change your life.”
Just to leave this oit there for the concerned; I’m fine.
Hey, it’s better than it always being shit. I’m sorry about the bipolar though. However, hopefully, it’s been found out. You can get help more suited for that.
The anxiety is.hinestly such a bitch. And I’m so glad coming out has helped. I wish you all the best.

There’s significantly less chance of getting fucked for life if yiu actually wear proper safety gear. Doesn’t stop the danger of others, though. But it can lower damage.

Dude, like 3 weeks ago, i was on a long arse bike wide, and it started chucking it down. I had full gear on, so I stayed really dry and warm. But as I was heading home along a sunny fast speed road, I’m on for about 15 minutes doing 60mph. And there was just this rainbow. I caught it in the corner of my eye, and I smiled? Like, it was just joyous. I thought it’ll leave soon. But it didn’t. The entire 15 minutes, I was just looking at it. As someone who suffers from mental health issues, it was beautiful. A reminder that just because I’m not happy with myself or the way I see things. There’s hope in nature. Humanity won’t be around forever. But nature will be. And nature is, well, it’s indescribable.
After a while, it turned into a double rainbow, too.
I’d like to hear about people’s most successful approaches or styles (even if unconventional), that helped them to overcome or at least get their various struggles under control....
My motorbike fixes my issues whenever I go on it. And the thought of going for a ride can calm me down sometimes. But it’s usually more powerful when I actually get out.
You’ll start making jokes about this, and then it’ll catch up to you. Then you’ll remembee this comment as you and your partner are sat in a pissy bath tub
The sidewalks are really dangerous where I am, where they are super uneven, have “artistic” curves, and trees that are overhanging really low so like will hit my body....
If it’s a 2 stroke vespa, yeah, they have that smell. It’s also an easier way to differentiate between old classics and new ones. I don’t have any experience with new vespas, but I think they would’ve gone to 4 strokes now.
I’ll also point out. At least in the UK, 50cc riders tend to be absolutely brain-dead morons.
You can usually tell which ones are the culprits because they’ve fucked their exhaust. And ride around like, “yeahhh look at me, I’m so cool with my shit sounding underpowered bike.” No mate, you get maybe 35mph if you’ve de-restricted it, and you’re borderline red lining it. Calm down. You just look stupid. Same goes for 125’s sure they get a bit of extra speed and can get to 70, but it’ll take like 2 minutes to get up to speed and abusing your engine.
As someone who doesn’t ride bicycles. What’s the huge issue with cars? They’re a ton more effective than bikes.
I think motorised vehicle owners and cyclists just have a universal hate for each other. Well, a lot of people do. There’s a ton of people on bikes that are absolute cunts, and that comes from bad experiences with them.
Maybe if we all use the things how we’re supposed to, a lot of this hate would disappear.
Edit: Thinking about it, as someone who rides a motorbike, some car drivers are just as bad. I’ve genuinely noticed that actual licenced motorbike riders tend to be the best out of them all. My main asking point was that you can’t really do a full weeks worth of shopping with anything other than a car. U less you get it delivered.
Are you talking aboit motorbike vespas? Because if they’re OK the pavement, then they shouldn’t be allowed to have one. Unless vespa also does scooters/bicycles.
I wouldn’t really say they’re terribly inefficient. They’ve got a lot of practical uses.
And I wouldn’t say cars themselves cause the deaths. Its the dickheads who drive the cars. Much like how a push biker, who looked like he was about to stop at some light that he was supposed at, decided to just go faster and swerve straight in front me, causing me panic, slip my bike into neutral when I wanted second, put on my revs whilst being in neutral, then having to aggressively throw my bike to the left, just so that I wouldn’t plow straight into him. This cause me to have to the thread the needle between him and another push biker who I could’ve easily hit as well. If I were in my car, chances are I would’ve clipped either of them, and it would’ve been their fault. Not the cars.
Whilst they can take up a lot of space, it should be important to know that quite a lot of the time, cars here drive over roads that would’ve originally been planned for horse and carriages. And only really just adapted for cars. You can see that on UK country roads.
Do you mind me asking where you’re from? I haven’t really seen anything like the last point where I’m from. Quite a few places are pedestrians and push bikes only. With very few exceptions. That could also be because you rarely see big cars here. This also applies to taking up excessive land.
I do believe that public transport should be a lot better. I live in a small village about 10 miles from the nearest city. And I work in the city centre. My only options are either pray that a bus actually shows up and isn’t late, or take my car to the tiny not really built for cars alley and risk scraping it. The other issue with public transport is, if I have to try to get to the very back of a bus, and pray that no one sits near me, or sit in a place I will feel extremely uncomfortable with. Both of these options mean that I need to have something I can squeeze the shit out. And shelter myself in and try to be as invisible as possible. I do not have these issues with cars or motorbikes. Cars because I’m in my own personal space where I feel a ton more comfortable, and the bike where it lets me hide the entirety of my body, again, making me feel a lot more comfortable.
See, I’m the opposite. I suffer from depression and riding/driving really helps with that.
Only I don’t get all that angry when I do. If someone annoys me, I just go for a simple under-my-breath “you twat”.
The bike works best for it. The big vroom helps quieten the sadness. Kinda hard to be sad when you’re sat on top of an explosive fuel and thousands of explosings happening between your legs. It’s kinda calming. To me, at least.
Before anyone asks, no I haven’t fucked my exhaust. It’s still the stock one.
I have no experience with next cloud. But for me, openmedoavault is fine. I’ve had no issues with it, other than basic ones, and setting up can be a bit tedious, but just read guides. Also, separately powered drives may be better. But I can’t say anything about that.

And if you’ve made strides in reversing that stigma, how have you done so?
