I get that you’re trying to be uplifting and motivating and whatnot but executive distinction making it quite literally impossible to motivate myself to get up and take those first few steps is the problem here.

That’s nice and you’re very lucky. My PCP told me to schedule an appt with their drugs and mental health department (3 month minimum wait) and that he’d not renew the prescription I’d come to him with.

Then my next Dr was telehealth and kept warning me I needed to see her in person, but never had an appointment open.

Then my next Dr was 45 minutes late to every appointment.

Then my next Dr tried to get me to do IT troubleshooting on my end when he hadn’t joined the fucking Zoom call.

Many of us also lived through the era where any 13 year old could steal Mommy’s credit card and rent a botnet for that ezpz

My MC server a decade ago was tiny and it still happened every few months when we banned some butthurt kid

In Photoshop paint, it’s a single tool.

I think the real reason so many people hate GIMPs flow is that it doesn’t match the free paint tool that comes with every Microsoft OS since before I was born.

This would help explain why people who have never used PS even 10 years ago would regularly bounce off GIMP for making no intuitive sense

I’ve got a server I’m mass downloading anything I or my wife can think of and quite a few obscure movies and shows aren’t on the major sites in any form that has enough seeders to actually finish

So, Usenet it is, at least until I’m mostly done.

If I was huntig for it all by hand I’d probably not bother but I’m using the Arr stack for automation so

And you don’t see how your comment is one of many reasons crypto isn’t the future of money?

It’s also how content creators literally create chapters: put the time codes into the video description

That’s a native feature of the platform

kinda feel like those individuals shouldn’t be allowed to use computers to do their jobs. If you can’t master just pass the basics, sorry. Here’s a pencil and a pad of paper.

My wife had her HR rep get pissed at her just yesterday for sending an email to her boss and other higher-ups asking why assistant managers at her company can’t use the computers theyre on all day properly. She had asked for a screenshot of something so she could see what the other person was seeing and they replied with “I can’t do that idk how” and thought that was acceptable?

Luckily the other higher ups told HR to shut up and that she was only mad because it’s her job to ensure basic computer literacy and she clearly didn’t.

People 100% get into the mindset that “well, I already know the basics, so anything I don’t know is advanced user shit so I can’t learn it” and it’s infuriating

Nah, super focus is totally a thing, just not everyone does it.

My wife can’t sit in a computer chair for 8 hours straight playing a game/editing a video/writing something/reading Wikipedia really hard, but I can.

And no, I can’t control it so it’s not a superpower, it’s random enforced focus and it’s only sometimes a helpful thing. Usually the work I do when doing it gets worse much faster and it does major damage to your body to sit in 1 position for that long not peeing.

You can also just look at your “recent apps” under settings, if a notification popped off in the last 30s and you didn’t see a window then it’ll almost certainly be the top app in “most recent”

It’s a glitch / purposeful design in some apps where the actual popup window isn’t set to actually stick around so it just makes a ghost noise. For me it was some random app I installed for one niche purpose and forgot about

Adding warnings will only result in annoying people, not driving for improvement.

Given how poorly adoption has gone so far this might be the only way to get actual fast support rolled out. Piss people off, get change

Big change in how English speakers pronounced long vowel sounds

I used to keep my phone in my breast pocket because I wasn’t allowed to wear headphones at work but WAS allowed to put it there and play audio aloud

Thus my phone would flip out far more often than a normal person

Weird that your Pixel didn’t handle water

I’ve dropped my 8 pro into the tub like 8 times in the 8 months ive owned it and it just disabled the port and is fine

Same with my pixel 6, 4, and 2 XL

Come to think of it I haven’t lost a phone to liquid since my LG G7, which I dropped into a bucket of diesel

No, but you’re gonna scare away a lot of people who don’t wanna bother with it

So long as the light isn’t coming from BEHIND the lense then you can think of it being like a camera flash

Or just think of it as the power indication LED being made stylish

Oh look, more examples of why defederation would be a good idea.

Be honest: are you guys actually as out of touch as the MAGA dipshits or is it all one massive troll?

When my mom’s old laptop became mine in around 2011 it wasn’t even powerful enough to run Minecraft at more than 13 FPS, so I sure as shit wasn’t gonna spend the occasional money I got on a steam card at 7/11 to load up an account I couldn’t even use to play the games well with

I think every game I’ve ever pirated from childhood and actually liked enough to finish has been paid for now though

I just want to know why he’s wearing crocs

He’s a goblin, duh

It feels like George had a great idea of the key plot points but then

Lucas’s talent is in big ideas, great concepts, how a story might fit together, not in silly details!

He should be like, a director or something…

(It is funny though that his actual profession so clearly impacts his writing)
