Colkegan from Santa Fe Spirits in pretty interesting. NM is blue for now.

Mull is supposedly no longer being developed.

If you are in a position to see a neurologist, that could be a great way to get a better answer. I have seen a neurologist regularly for almost 30 years for something else, but also have minor tremors/twitches that predated why I see the neurologist. My twitches are like an eyebrow vibing, or a small portion of thigh muscle, etc. Anyway, neither of the neurologists I saw for over ten years felt I should be concerned, but I also didn’t pursue it. I had other concerns. A main/family doctor may be able to help, also. Not sure.

Anyway, doctors should listen, and then they may have questions about things like family history. That is really where the quality of life can matter. It isn’t about now, but later. If you can afford the doctor visit.

When I first got involved in this, I had a kbin and a lemmy account. I ended up focusing on the kbin, but it was useful to have the lemmy to see how things moderated. Kbin is dead now, but I still will occasionally use the lemmy to see how things look. I find it valuable. As an mbin person now, I think I should have some other instances in the mix as well. It’s a federation, and for me, I would like things to be appropriate for all of us. It’s kind of fun! Even if I am not a big user of other instances/federations?

They are cancelling, effectively, many other things, too. Many of us have required ongoing training to do our jobs. We cannot travel for anything. So many levels of safety are at risk.

A great example of how these folks do not care about things unless it happens to them. I am glad they are getting the vaccine, but I hope they push their “network” to do the same.

Unfortunately there is a long history in the US of fudging unemployment numbers. Maybe not common, but it happens. This seems more like the Nixon deal (shocker).

Haha another “great” memory wrapped up in that video.

I see. I bought my first laptop in 2013 (used), and by then I was pretty ensconced in Linux. That machine didn’t have those ports.

Some of what you said about appearances of women vs men have to do with toxic culture. 50 yo man with gray? Hot dad bod. 50 yo woman with gray? Past her prime. It’s complete crap and enforces unhealthy habits. Not that you believe these things, but “society” does.

Could they even be hot swapped? I don’t remember trying. I remember my dad getting a CD-RW drive with a USB-A connector, I had to reboot to get the computer to recognize it, but that was Windows 95 or 98.

Because of all the pins involved with USB, I think these would end up bring more like the mouse plugs of yore. USB C seem pretty awesome to me for this scenario.

As for a “wall” plug, given the voltage there, maybe there are technical challenges with safety? This is an interesting thought to me, i haven’t really thought much about wall plugs haha. There is so much room for improvement in my country (USA).

At this point I am not sure if I am glad I switched to SAVE or I wished I hadn’t 🤷‍♂️ probably doesn’t matter.

The phrase “camera phone” really takes me back and I want that to be what this is about haha.

For most of us, 2 comes before 1 unless you mean my own leg. But seriously, I like the list 🙂

That’s interesting to hear. I remember that from when I worked for them approximately… a long time ago, and sometimes cut fabric, but their stores were different then. I imagine they will be the option for many folks anyways, but even more so now.

I confess to not being in many Michael’s… I had wondered if they could buy up what Joann will likely liquidate but of course I imagine they are operating on a similarly strained budget. A smaller footprint would make it totally unrealistic unless they swapped stores.

Ya unfortunately Joann’s really was the big chain for that. We bought my niece a starter sewing machine for Xmas at one last year. Michael’s has some stuff, maybe they can fill the gap. Hobby Lobby can burn.

It’s hyperpersonalized /s

People from all across the age spectrum (including this group) use the term “college kids” to refer to folks that are generally 18-22. So if 22 is a kid, you are barely an adult. I’m not sure what all is making you feel old, but maybe having good people on your life can help. I have a spread of ages and it helps with perspective. I am middle age 🫣
