  • And it’s $1.50 in both the US and Canada! I never really paid attention and figured it would have the exchange but nope. I actually looked last week when I was there and it was $1.50.

  • This is a friend on mines life right now. I’m almost scared to pick up the phone when she calls. She’s always had an interesting life, it’s just crazy levels now.

  • I also had a deer hit me! It totally ran at the side of the truck, bounced off and then kept going back off the road. Was very weird.

  • What's a song in a language you don't speak that still gets you dancing and yelling along hyped?

    Jump

  • This one for sure! I have to turn it up every time it comes around in my playlists. It’s half in French, and I asked my Quebecois friend what he was singing and she wasn’t sure. Makes sense as I just discovered he’s Belgian when I went to get the YouTube link lol.

  • Friends with babies

    Jump

  • lol!! I feel that in my soul!! I don’t like kids, especially babies. I joke I barely liked my own. But man, my daughter is just the fucking coolest, every day she got that little bit older and we could have more in depth conversations and do more together. (I know every parent says that, but you know)

    I don’t remember having a lot of affection when I was a kid, it was either ignore me and expect me to be perfectly behaved, or intense scrutiny. No in between. So when I had my daughter I wasn’t going to be like that. Lots of hugs and cuddles and always telling her how much I love her exactly how she is.

  • Friends with babies

    Jump

  • I knew a couple that had four super easy babies in a row. Just delightful, sleeping through the night within a month of birth, no colic, easy like Sunday morning girls. So they went for one more. Had a boy that was the hardest baby in the world. Didn’t sleep through the night till 5, colic, had a nuclear reactors worth of energy in him. They said if that had been their first they never would have had a second.

    You never know what you’re going to get. My daughter was ROUGH the first 9 months, hardest thing I’ve ever been through. But then it got a lot easier and every day was better. She’s 15 now and the coolest kid. We had planned to have a second but by the time we could even wrap our heads around it she could talk, so we asked her if she wanted a sibling. She thought about her two best friends, who are brother and sister and fought like mad, and said nah. I didn’t want to go through that first 9 months again so that was that. Really glad we did that, we’ve got such a great bond with the three of us.

  • We got food at home!

    Jump

  • Unearthing a half eaten apple somewhere in the house is the worst. Or orange peels! I keep telling my daughter, we live in the country, you’ve lived here your whole life, you know that’s just an invite (with a giant flashing welcome sign) for mice and bugs. Still find them.

  • People who don't like math, why?

    Jump

  • I never thought of it that way. Brilliant!

  • I cut up my spaghetti with a knife and fork and then eat it. In front of my window. I don’t fear angry Italians.

  • Enrollment at trade schools is expected to grow 6.6% a year

    Jump

  • Yup. I work at a trade school and we have a waitlist for this year in both of our locations.

  • What in your country/area is totally normal but visitors get excited for?

    Jump

  • I live in the Gulf Islands of BC Canada. So. Many. Tourists. I don’t leave my house on the weekends in the summer. We have fabulous beaches though, and it really is lovely. I moved so much as a kid so I’ve always been like oh this is a cool place, I could move here whenever I travel. This is the first time in my life when I’m happy to be going home. Vancouver island is amazing.

  • My favourite drink is the one I have, or the one someone is offering me.

  • How are you?

    Jump

  • A 3 at this moment. Having my tea on the deck, cat in lap. But building ikea furniture and rearranging my house is in my future…

  • Is there an actor you can't stand? Do they have any exceptions?

    Jump

  • I absolutely agree with you about Stranger Than Fiction. Mine would be Adam Sandler, do not like that style of comedy. The only exception is Punch Drunk Love. One of my favourite movies! Also Jim Carey, except for Yes Men.

  • Quick, best music streaming service

    Jump

  • Sorry, I missed your reply! Apparently you can make it work with clementine but I haven’t bothered delving into it much yet, just use the web player or my phone. I was on openSUSE and it wasn’t working but I’ve switched to fedora so might give it a go again. I don’t really listen to music when I’m working as I find it distracting, mostly when I’m driving so it hasn’t been an issue for me.

  • Quick, best music streaming service

    Jump

  • Qobuz. That’s what we switched to a bit ago. Really easy to switch, they have a service that will transfer all your playlists, only a few songs didn’t maket it over and they were easy to find after. The music quality is great, that’s a big plus for us. There’s no podcasts or audiobooks either. The only gripes I have is the incredibly slow download speed for offline listening, but that comes with the better sound quality. Just plug in your phone and do other things while they download. And sometimes the music will stop in between tracks. The weekly playlist isn’t great for me, Spotify was better, but for my husband it’s spot on. I’ve also heard from others on Lemmy that say it takes a few weeks and then it’s great. Maybe it’s just having a hard time with my very eclectic music tastes. Generally I’m happy about the switch!

    I have heard that they pay artists more, but really no one is paying what the music is actually worth. I am slowly buying my music so we can self host it, just takes time and money. Also we get vinyl of the music we really love.

  • That’s exactly what I was thinking! Going to save it for my daughter’s games.
