I am 30 or 40 years old and I do not need this.

  • Without stating your age, how old are you?

    Jump

  • Back when I was a kid, The Simpsons was a really good show

  • Oklahoma schools are bringing in teachers from Mexico to fill classrooms as the state struggles with teacher shortage

    Jump

  • Half of them probably were jaded (ex-)New Yorkers

    Is fediverse turning into reddit?

    Jump

  • How is "bro" toxic...? I can see how someone who isn't a dude objecting to being called one, but that's not an issue with the word itself

  • This is the only Windows thing left on my computer

    Jump

  • The "sticker" is actually an off-cut from a laptop skin from my other laptop (which also runs Linux, and also has a sticker over its Windows key :P), so it's held up pretty well

  • This is the only Windows thing left on my computer

    Jump

  • I'm petty enough to put stickers over mine.

  • Do you ever feel full and hungry simultaneously?

    Jump

  • I used to get this sometimes. Turnes out my body doesn't process fructose well. Look into FODMAPs if none of the other suggestions work for you (usually the FODMAP thing requires an elimination diet, I just lucked out due to weird circumstances)

  • What's a personal weakness you possess that is entirely not relevant to your daily life?

    Jump

  • Regardless of age, weight, or overall fitness, I have never been able to touch my toes when bending over from standing.

  • Choosing a distro for a technophobe's computer

    Jump

  • Maybe SpiralLinux? It's basically just Debian with a few twealks, but the btrfs+Snapper might come in handy if/when you need to do tech support.

  • Does anyone actually take into account "IP Rating"/"Water Resistance" when they buy phones?

    Jump

  • Nope. Never had a water-related incident with any cellphone in the 20ish years I've been using them. Just not relevant to my life.

  • What was your last “impulse buy” and was it worth it?

    Jump

  • Demon's Tilt on the Switch. I'd been vaguely interested in it for a while and it was on sale for $10. I played a little and enjoyed it but I think it's gonna be one of those things I have to be in the mood for, and I'm just not today. I've spent $10 on dumber things, so no, I don't regret it.

  • What is your most "Fuck you, this is actually awesome?" take?

    Jump

  • That's OK. No piece of art or media is gonna be everyone's Thing.

  • What is your most "Fuck you, this is actually awesome?" take?

    Jump

  • Steven Universe. The online fandom was insane. The actual show was incredible.

  • How to validate myself?

    Jump

  • Came here to suggest this. I've been doing IFS stuff with my therapist and it's probably the most helpful therapy I've ever done.

    Is there a correlation or something between dementia and weight loss or lack of fat or something like that?

    Jump

  • Dementia specifically I don't know about, but if you don't eat enough it will affect brain function, since your brain requires energy to, yknow...work. Found a review article about it from a few years ago if you're interested.

  • What are the most upbeat songs with kind of depressing lyrics?

    Jump

  • Like half of Fall Out Boy's discography. "Hum Hallelujah" gets a special mention for literally being about a suicide attempt. Also "Dance In the Dark" by Lady Gaga, "Stomach Vs Heart" and "Humor of the Situation" by Barenaked Ladies ("Angry People" as well), "Slip Slidin Away" by Paul Simon, "When I Come Around" by Green Day...suffice it to say, I enjoy this trope a lot :P

  • ill be at your house in 10 minutes. how will you entertain me?

    Jump

  • I'm not at my place right now. If you come to my friend's place where we're at, you can have a donut and maybe pet the cat.

  • In the installer even!

    Jump

  • My current and previous laptops were/are Dell and I can count on one hand the number of hardware issues I've had with Linux (minus the Nvidia GPU but yknow. Nvidia.)

  • NSFW Deleted

    Permanently Deleted

    Jump

  • I have anxiety and I'm also into horror. I dunno if it's helped, but I don't think it's made anything worse at least.

  • What in your country/area is totally normal but visitors get excited for?

    Jump

  • The anoles are one of the few things I miss about living in Florida. There are lizards here in Kentucky, but they're more elusive.
