Flopscotch!

I'm 52 now... Probably about 10 or 15 so, I meet my kindergarten teacher (relatively small community) and she told me that she was among the first teachers that allowed children to be left handed.

Definitely have shitty left handed writing and ADHD!

Sneakers had got to be one of my all-time favorite movies. Definitely still relevant.

I moved to Linux on my desktop back in 2019. I was sick of my slightly old (4 year old) processor running constantly at 20 to 30 percent utilization.

During COVID, there were times I worked from home and did so successfully on Linux.

Gaming was one of the big for me as well but the transition to Linux was not really that painful. There was only one of two games that I had to leave behind, and even then, I was able to set up Looking Glass to play them occasionally (definitely not a task for a regular end user).

I think some people are too comfortable with MS Office to migrate, if anything, I think Office isa bigger barrier to Linux adoption than Windows is. After all, the are plenty of comments saying "Windows 10... Bad. Windows 11... Worse!" There are no comments focusing on the Office suite being bad.

Excuse me, Benedict Cumberbatch, will you pass the worcheshire sauce?

Turned 13 today. I complain that my wife only buys me a present every four years. She says if I keep saying that, it may come true. Also, at work, I tell them to excuse my behavior, I'm just acting my age.

As far as 28th vs March 1st, well, I celebrate both days. If I'm getting scammed out of birthdays three out of four years, I'm taking an extra day on those off years!

It is normal. There is some interesting discussion here and I agree that most... Almost all of the people do not desire to be in the situation there are in.

There is some discussion about giving money to the person vs giving to a charity. Whatever I choose to do, my rule of thumb is to do it with kindness. Sometimes I will give some chance to someone and chat with them. Sometimes I don't have chance/money to give them so I will say so but maybe introduce myself.

I heard the saying "the greatest lie that Americans believe is that they are much closer to being a millionaire when in reality they are much closer to being homeless." Most people are a paycheck or two away from homelessness.

There but for the grace of God go I.

See enshittification.

It's to die for.

Ahhhh, Northern Alberta. I recognize that sign.

The self centered POS's are sitting in their mom's basement on 4chan.
