Physical keyboard. I miss touch typing one handed.
fwiw I’m in Michigan, where minimum wage is $10.10.
2190 * $10.10 = $22,119
I make more than that, but I’m salary, so more work actually lowers my hourly wage. I couldn’t tell you how many years it’s been since I’ve worked only 40 hours.
I’d like more time to do fun things like read, play video games, run or go for walks, or house maintenance, etc
I was getting ready for bed, having been up several hours past the time I normally go to bed because of work, so my comment may have been situationally motivated
before it opened for companies to be allowed to do registrations I paid $70 for my first .org domain. Back then you were also required to do 2 years up front then you could lay $35 a year after that. This was back in the late 90’s, so $70 was a lot more back then.
$20 is nothing now.
Keep my job, but not stress about being laid off ever again. I like my job right now. Pay off my house. And go on a couple really nice vacations a year.
Not require sleep, ever, with no ill effects (fatigue, mental issues, shortened lifespan, etc).
So much time is wasted sleeping. I have too much shit to do! It’s 2am because I was up getting some code working for another team at work, and we just moved, so I have tons of unpacking to do!
My bartender. They’re great listeners. Sometimes you just need to get it all out to someone that listens. They don’t need to provide advice or anything.
I haven’t used it since I was a teenager 😂
Kindle.
I read a lot. I used to always keep a paperback book with me ever since I was a teenager. My Kindle goes everywhere with me, since I got my first one in 2009. I just wish they’d make them smaller, the first Oasis was the perfect size for carrying around all the time (I’m a guy, no purse).
Any Timothy Zahn books are quite good. I love Thrawn.
iirc, in the 90’s the older books had a set of guidelines they had to adhere to, like no stories that take place before episode 4, or Luke couldn’t have sex, I don’t remember much more than that, but I think they were pretty free to tell any story if they stayed within the guidelines.
TBH I have no idea what the rules are now.
PS5 and PC.
On PS5 it’s usually games like God of War and Horizon.
On PC it’s the occasional shooter, and I spend many hours on Satisfactory.
Occasionally I’ll find a fun game to play on my steam deck, but overall I don’t use it much. Make sure you evaluate the games that work on it before you spend to make sure you shouldn’t wait for the supported list to grow.
'kill me"
I say that a lot. Usually when I’m alone and frustrated, tired, in physical or emotional pain…
I don’t want to die. What I’m saying is “make whatever is causing the current situation to suck to stop”. It tends to be cathartic, and occasionally leads me to thinking about how to fix the situation myself.
In a hot second. It’s the greatest wonder, to leave the planet and be a part of the bigger universe at large.
I love my Bose wireless headphones (quiet comfort 45). They sound really great, but I also paid $200 (on sale) for them and regret nothing.
The battery is user replaceable with some care.
That we ingest several petabyte of data from our customers every month.
Buffy is the most watched, hands down.
Nowhere Man is another one I love to watch over and over again, it’s only one season, but I haven’t seen it as many times as Buffy. It’s pretty dated, but it’s a great premise, and really enjoyable.
Tailscale’s free tier is unbelievable.
Starfarers by Vonda MacIntyre
The treatment of same sex partners in the story was just mater of fact, these are love affairs same as any other. She made it feel just like a natural thing, and progressive for the time it was written. I read it when I was still in high school in 1992.
It taught me to be acceptance of everyone, and eventually myself.
