Living in a smal space also helps with lifestyle creep as you can’t find a space for new things. Also, only replace something if it’s broken or unsafe.

They will then ask for a third term.

I blame the streaming boom and then password sharing crackdowns.

I put it in an eWaste pile which I hope is sending it off to be “recycled”. There was no saving my palm pre or touchpads.

It’s hard sometimes, I needed a new laptop to get a better CPU for video encoding. I now have my older laptop, which is actually a hand me down, so it’s old, but it’s going to replace my even older laptop that’s running a 2nd gen i3. So that’s going to be the one I will likely bring to an eWaste site as it will no longer serve me. Sure I could keep it around as a spare, you never know, but I really doubt that will happen.

All my laptops are running some form of Linux, except one. That’s used to run turbo tax (I know) as the windows software is typically much more affordable over the website version. So that saves me like $50 each year.

Anyway, eventually I’ll need to toss my old pixel xl as the battery only last about 45 minutes and I think lineage isn’t able to update it, I didn’t check the last few months. I was planning to have it be my kids first tablet, but a battery replacement is around $75 I think… Just seems not worth it.

My trouble is battery health of older phones and laptops. I typically purchase scratch and dents from Dell outlet and for phones wait for the battery to only make it 4hours before it needs a charge.

Yes, you can get a replacement power supply.

That’s how you can draw basic things on the c64. It’s showing the alternative symbols for the key.

Could have been made by someone local. They are likely using the SD card drive by now. I hope… I didn’t get to read the full article as it asked me to sign in and I aborted.

This might be unique to each parent as well. Some children do require extra attention and it is very difficult to managed work time in.

With most schools letting kids out around 3pm it’s not easy to keep the children occupied before the work day is finished. This leaves parents either on a work call with kids heard in the background or working late at night al week.

Think of it as if the person is a caretaker and a full time employee at your company. It’s basically two full times just that happen to overlap during the day.

I think calling it a privilege is really unfair but if the people are missing work and not meeting deadlines then management needs to step in and work out a solution. Work life balance is hard.

That picture looks like his on the set of Enterprise.

My Ring app is going crazy the last few weeks about people saying drones are flying around. I’m sure it’s normal…

I popped on the SNES with my Super Gameboy cartage for a visiting kid that’s like 7 and he was amazed playing Super Mario World 2. It was a whole new game for him. I wish I could get a cheap working gameboy for kids today, the used market is scam now with the prices people are doing.

Smart watch will be what I get my kid instead of a smartphone. Its basically the modern day bepper in my eyes.

Have we forgotten about Turning Red already?

Lion king 2 and lion king 1 1/2

My take: Lion King 2 has some rushed parts and other parts are too long. Overall, ok but forgettable addition to the series.

Lion King 1 1/2, starts a little rough for me, but once Timon leaves home the movie takes off and it’s a good time. Recommend a watch if you have the first movie burned into memory.

Good thing banks use sms for two factor codes

I love that we can reencoding the 4k HDR to 1080 while we retain the HDR color information. Looks great to me while saving a ton of space.

What’s TDD?

“The enchanted journey” it’s a favorite for me growing up.
