  • Old man, take a look at my life. im a lot like you were.

  • What’s the price of a dozen eggs on average in the states? I’m Canadian and generally assume everything is more expensive up here but our egg prices really aren’t that bad, at least compared to the complaining I here of down south.

  • What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?

    Jump

  • I’ve been trying but it keeps breaking my brain for some reason. I’ll keep trying. Maybe I’ll get the hang of it. Thanks.

  • Same here, but I must say the platforming is a lot harder than I was expecting. Diagonal pogo is really messing me up. I can’t consistently get past those pogo bouncy fruit ball things and I’m stuck now. Hopefully it clicks soon.

  • The stigma of being a feminine male has left me broken, dysfunctional, and afraid to leave home. How can I get past my fear?

    Jump

  • Definitely agree with this. I’m a very “soft” man, I don’t yell, anger is very rare for me, I care deeply for others, all that jazz. My wife loves that about me and it’s a big reason she agreed to marry me. Imo a woman (or man or enby) who sees softness as a plus, that’s a massive green flag.

  • I’m super into mechanical watches for the reasons mentioned. Quartz (battery operated), not so much. But I’ve got a growing collection of mechanical watches and they’re some of my favourite possessions. Not because they’re flashy and make me look rich or whatever but because of the mechanisms inside.

  • I’m in the opposite situation. All my friends are either single or in casual relationships, meanwhile I’m married with a kid coming very soon and two cats.

    At the same rate, all my friends are either working in their field or doing their masters/post-grad studies, meanwhile I’m working a shitty job at low pay with no idea where to go career-wise so in that respect I feel behind in the whole maturity/life path thing. So I guess it balances out.

  • YouTube is now flagging accounts on Premium family plans that aren't in the same household

    Jump

  • I’m getting the same scores/results for Safari + uBOL and Orion + uBO but I’ll stick with safari for a bit just for a change in pace.

  • That was my reminder to update my system. Thanks!

    I’ll test out Safari + uBO for a bit and see if I prefer it. Do you have any sites you can check for how good your adblocker is? I used to use one but that was ages ago, I don’t remember the name anymore.

  • That app doesn’t work with the current version of safari. This is what I see when trying to enable:

    "uBO Lite" is not supported by this version of Safari.

    I’ve been using Orion with uBlock and have been satisfied the last few months.

  • uBlock Origin is also available on iOS/iPadOS but only through the Orion browser. It would be nice if other browsers figured out how to allow Firefox extensions too but so far it looks to just be Orion.

  • Company behind Jack Daniel's says Canadian boycott is 'significant' as sales drop 62%

  • I’ll check that one out, thanks for the link!

  • I’m going to have to try that. I don’t ever buy mineral water (or any water, my tap works just fine and fuck the bottling industry), but I might have to make an exception and give it a try. I’ll usually add just a touch of water in my whisky and scotch, so maybe I’ll try mineral water next time. I drink more in the winter so it’ll probably be a bit before I give it a shot, but I’ve saved your comment for future reference. Thanks for the recommendation.

  • I own an M1 MacBook. I don’t use it nearly as much as my main pc (gaming laptop with CachyOS (Arch-based, btw)) but it’s very well built and is well optimized. If I could get the build of a MacBook but with the specs of my gaming pc without spending 2x the price as I would on a pre-build windows machine I would absolutely do it.

  • Microsoft breaks Windows reset and recovery

    Jump

  • Everyone I’ve read that’s used Fedora has liked it. I’d consider it on a secondary machine or something maybe.

    Cachy has been awesome, I’d recommend it if you decide to change distros in the future. I’m enjoying Arch as a base more than Ubuntu for sure. I haven’t tried anything based on Fedora though other than Bazzite which is immutable, so I’m not sure if that really counts.

    Nix seems cool but its big selling point that I’ve read is easy reproduction which I don’t think I’d utilize much. I might be missing something, but Arch seems more for me personally.

  • Microsoft breaks Windows reset and recovery

    Jump

  • I distro hopped a bit but landed on CachyOS, which is arch-based (btw) but a lot more straightforward to install and has a faster kernel supposedly. It’s been fantastic, I much prefer it to windows. Still getting used to the occasional hiccup but it’s worth it. I was never too attached to windows anyway. I’m currently running KDE Plasma but I want to try out Hyprland or something similar. It seems really cool. I have to look into how to download it though.

  • I’d love to build my own pc, maybe in a few years. I’m currently using a gaming laptop which is good enough for most games, but when I feel the need to upgrade I’m gonna build.

  • I’m so glad I switched to Linux when I did (a couple months ago). I was dual booting for a bit but two weeks ago I removed my windows partition. Feels good to be free.
