There’s even a few that thrive in it.

I rather suspect she is one of those types who shines in the chaos. I think her stress comes more from co-workers than the situation.

Companies dont really need to know where you are. They just need to know where you aren’t. If you are not within a certain threshold of response time to certain cdn servers, then its reasonable to assume that you are outside their contractually obligated broadcast region.

This would just end up being Facebook in the long run.

Starch. This limits what I can eat. Unfortunately I didn’t know this growing up, so I ate a pretty carb heavy diet which caused health issues which caused me to be grouchy a lot. Took until I nearly 40 to figure out that I wasn’t just an unstable asshole.

If you use Windows, I highly recommend trying Mobaxterm.

Ungoogled Chromium exists. I wonder if it’d possible to do a version of Chomium that has the benefits of Edge without the downsides.

Defeating the purpose would be writing the password to your computer on a sticky note and putting it where anyone can see it.

Or just disable the cell modem.

If you like puzzle games I suggest trying portal. Portal 1 is inexpensive on Steam and playable on any modern PC including on Linux. It’s low pressure, has some humor, not very violent, and you can restart from anywhere you like.

GUUYS!!

All y’all never heard youse before?

PA-220s be like that.

The rest of humanity will eventually evolve into something you don’t recognize and can never be part of.

hot dogs in Kraft Dinner

If I had a million dollars,
we wouldn’t have to eat Kraft Dinner.

Came with the house. Changing it out would not be fun.
