By don’t phone home you mean don’t phone YOUR home, right? 😂 I got plenty of their calls last week.

Ringworld has the best and worst books in a series I’ve ever read. It still manages to be amazing, even with book 3.

I have an account that has been having that same behaviour for years. I changed my password multiple times after and have 2fa. I was uneasy at the time but realized the best I could do is move on from those accounts as main accounts and just keep them locked tight.

“Imported”

Whenever I let out a big fart close to her I say her name out loud in a surprised tone accompanied by “that’s absolutely disgusting!” and she eye rolls immediately lol

Not sure about hand tools. I always buy the cheapest ones that apply to my needs, and they last. The only time I broke one was when I bought a screwdriver at Dollarama, but I understand that I went too far with the cheap tool. Power tools is correct 👍

I noticed I’m in the same situation (tongue tied), and the only downside I noticed is when speaking Spanish I can’t really say the R as in the word “Rico” correctly. I do it in a very simple way but can’t hold it like most speakers can. And I though about having it corrected, but to me a surgery would be too big a risk for a small benefit.

Yes, that’s a fair point. But even with an investment in better wages, training and more education a critical shortage will take at least a couple years to be mitigated, and a couple years doesn’t seem to be a viable option right now.

Sure. Imagine how bad it is being from a poor country and being offered a lot more money, better work and life conditions. Truly awful.

Upvote because of random Bolsonaro burn.

I love mine so much. I got it in a Costco promotion because my last earbuds were so bad I couldn’t take it anymore and just bought it thinking a higher end one would be better. Probably the best non researched purchase I had and didn’t even know they were noice canceling. Such a nice surprise haha it sounds very good to me and the battery life is very impressive!

Yessss! Awesome earbuds!

No. But I’ll check her out, thanks ;)

I have two middle names, and they are exactly the same names from a porn star turned politician in my country. Plenty of jokes about it.

The weirdest moment was when a teacher was correcting one of my essays and asked about the origin of my name, after I explained, he mentioned that he liked one of the movies that my name doppelgänger made, I had no answer and just said “ah…” and after some awkward silence he gave me back my essay.

Woo that’s a nice link! Thank you!

Funny that I found out about it this morning and at night it was abandoned. Makes it look like it was one of my projects lol

Elantra

I thought they would disable my esim after the grace period was over, they gave me the option to pay for a subscription and I said “Hell no!”. But I guess I’m more valuable driving that thing than I thought. So yeah, probably only hacking it to disable the esim.

Mostly, a bunch of alarms for the daily things, like get ready for work or lunch time, and listing what I have to do for the day in a piece of paper. The last one helps with tasks like folding laundry, calling some company, setting up some kind of appointment. If I just let it loose I’ll avoid/forget doing it for months.
