It cost like half a trillion dollars to avert the issues of Y2K. A lot of people don’t realize how much of an issue it was.

Trudeau says there is credible evidence to suggest that India assassinated a Canadian citizen in Canada. But don’t quote me I’ve only read headlines.

I’ve got the opposite problem.

Now people hang buckets off me before they break the bad news.

Americans be like “Nothing gets between me and the job that makes me want to kill myself.”

Y’all sluts need praxis.

Do you not feel the itch of curiosity?

I’m sure a lot of people just think your a sea lion.

Every single cable you buy for Apple products is different. Not different from each other, but different from the rest of the smart phone industry. Does it need to be? No. Is it to anyone’s benefit? Just Apple’s. Is it to anyone’s detriment? To the users and the environment.

Micro USB did.

And then instead of making a connector like USB-C that everyone could use they made their own proprietary one.

I bought a Samsung. Then I bought a one plus. Then I bought a pixel.

Imagine if I had to throw out my charging cables every time I changed brands. Imagine if everyone acted like Apple. It would be incredibly degenerate.

Also, everyone brings up micro USB, but those cables still find a ton of use in my home for all the different other devices that use it. I’m not gonna find an Xbox controller that uses lightning cables for example.

If every cell phone brand acted like Apple we would have like thirty different proprietary chargers.

We shouldn’t give them a pass just because they’re the only ones brazen enough to be stupid.

I connected my phone to tether internet since the power was out but the cell network was still going.

Something paid, something something nautical term

There’s a lot of government positions that require just high school, and pay more than typical.

But they’re annoying to apply to, and often can make you wait a long time. Look into your cities job bank, same with state/province and/or federal level.

I’m hoping for a redemption arc.

Just bought this book, it’s next on my list.

Having read both, The Martian was very much a book I just simply put down (I lost so many hours of sleep because of it) whereas this one seemed decent.

If you liked the Martian, you’ll like this one probably. There definitely was some weak moments, and the science portion, while crunchy sometimes, didn’t hold up consistently.

Worth a read.

I still use Reddit for the small subreddits. Highly focused topics seems to be the only way Reddit is tolerable now.

I also just picked up reading again. Turns out part of my enjoyment of Reddit was reading comments and when that went to shit just reading books worked out for me. On my third book since the fiasco started.

Or worse, it was an n:1 and they want it n:n
