You say this sarcastically, but there have been podcasts that talk about how I credibly effective this tactic is.

If I were dying, or lost my job, or had a bereavement; I would find any one of these to be incredibly comforting:

May the force be with you

Live long and prosper

Here’s looking at you kid

My mama always said life was like a box of chocolates. You never know what you’re gonna get

You either die a hero or you live long enough to see yourself become the villain

Cowabanga

Apes together strong

If you find yourself alone, riding in the green fields with the sun on your face, do not be troubled. For you are in Elysium, and you’re already dead.

You have my sword, and my bow, and my axe.

Why do we fall sir? So that we can learn to pick ourselves up.

I live my life a quarter mile at a time.

I’ll be back

Which would be worse, to live a monster or to die a good man

Buy all the games…but play only Balatro

I thought breast support was the reason they use a bra.

Lack of pockets would be the sole reason if I used a bra.

Tik Tok vertical videos?

Someone who does not spend excessive amounts of time on specific kinds of social media to consume memes and get steeped in the current internet “culture” and in-jokes.

Nobody wants “nobody”.

1. I’ve really been getting into retro emulation recently and would highly recommend it.

2. Pixel graphics are the best even in modern games (Enter the Gungeon, Dead Cells, Stardew Valley, Celeste, etc).

“Good thanks, you?”

I think other large supermarkets do too.

Are you the actual OP here? I hope this isn’t just someone else’s content posted from elsewhere.

But now? I’ve embraced it.

This is so great to hear. Own it. Your response is great. Your feet are huge. Take up a martial art with a lot of kicking.

See myself in a Teams meeting. Try to get rid of my resting bitch face. It somehow comes back again in 2 min.

This inflicts chip damage.

All news sites should be consumed via RSS. Their front pages are the equivalent of social media algorithms and you only see what they want to show you. When you use RSS you get a list of news in time order and see news stories you would never see on their website because of how fast they drop it from their front page and bury it in menus.

I’ve got a G502 and couldn’t get Piper to work. Are there particular permissions I need to give it in Flatseal?

I sold my laptop last year and it took me 2 months for me to find the PC parts I wanted. I’ve got nothing exciting to report. I used the Steam Deck as my full time PC for 2 months and it worked perfectly for home use and as a virtual workstation for remote logon for work. This basically gave me the confidence to move to Linux fulltime and I put OpenSUSE on my PC by the time I got it built.

I still have to use my wife’s windows laptop for some hardware peripheral settings (my GP2040-CE custom controller, Logitech mouse macro button settings, gamesir controller), but overall using the Steam Deck fulltime was a good experience.

You can put down a small tub or mug to catch the room temp water to use for something else. I run water into a mug and use that to wash my kid’s asses after their bedtime poop. I mix bubble bath into the remaining room temp water in the mug for the kids to play with when showering. Then they can get straight into the tub and warm water will come from the showerhead right away.

There are tons of uses for the room temp water…water plants, fill the iron, fill the floor mop bucket, etc.

It doesn’t have to be forced ignorance. I still follow the TLDR news and sister channels. They present a summary of a few key issues quite well. I know about the political parties I support and will vote in an election. I have an app for breaking news headlines (I just look at the headlines for just urgent breaking news…but I’ve uninstalled this recently).

Mainstream news I have no interest in following anymore. Especially since they’ve pivoted to reporting on “this person said this dumb thing on social media” and “royal family/celebrity does some dumb shit”.

I would also recommend using RSS for news if you have to. Subscribe to only what you want. Get news in chronological order rather than their bullshit prioritisation. Set blacklist filter words (I used to have a news RSS with a blocklist as long as my arm…Trump, Gaza, COVID, Ukraine, Musk, Twitter, Facebook, etc etc). But now I’ve uninstalled this too.

I would be surprised if this mattered, but I don’t know for sure. The more serious problem would be if your sent emails get caught in their spam filter.

I unplugged a year ago and it has been great. Highly recommended.
