Numbers can be fun if you play with them a bit. We may not always agree but I’ll be your friend if you ever need one.

Same. It’s awful. It’s not gout obviously but the stiffness in my knee and ankle is the most debilitating. Ironically I didn’t break my ankle or my knee. My hip was broken and keeping my foot still for the better part of a year has been problematic for movement ever sense.
The hip aches a lot but I can tolerate that by modifying my walking and using the cane. I still haven’t figured out how to get the stiffness out of my ankle and knee.
A custom cane. I know it’s silly but I get a lot of compliments on it. It’s hand crafted in Ukraine and it has a steel sculpture of Thors face adorned on the front.
If you’re someone like me that is going to need that for the rest of your life, why use some cold looking medical device or that stupid “hurry cane”? Nah I’d rather it be as beautiful as it is functional.
I’ve taken it on all my travels so far and it makes for a great conversation piece and a great way for others to broach the uncomfortable topic of my accident or walking impairment. Most people will ask about the cane first before asking me why I need it. Prior to owning the custom cane nobody asked me about anything.
I’m fine with people continuing to do shit like this. Don’t profit off of it. Flood the entire internet with so much made up shit it waters down their brand into nothing.
That’s a slippery slope fantasy in and of itself but I would love to see it 😅
I mostly ignore the Fediverse these days. I’ve been spending time making videos for YouTube as a hobby and as outlet for my anger, stress and other emotions.
Keeping busy and productive doing that is a reward in and of itself. Nobody else might like what I make but I’m not making it for them. I’m making it for me. Everyone else gets the benefit of watching too if they think it’s any good.
Yeah it’s written like an email from HR
Keep in mind that it isn’t Lemmy you are sharing it with. You’re sharing it with the Fediverse. Lemmy is like your AOL dial up connection to the wider Fediverse.
Waddle around the pond hitting up old folks for bread that is unhealthy for my diet and nipping at the toes of small children.
I do what any sane person does. I remove their stupid filter off their line outside of my house and plug it into the back of my TV for free.
They can’t stop the broadcast signal so when they turn off your cable they install the filter in the line. It’s about the size of a d cell battery.
Don’t be rooting around and touching lines or cables if you can’t tell the difference between a coax an rj45 and THHN #6. Two of those are safe and one of those could end your life if it’s live.
Wow what a great way to cherry pick that comment and have a completely empty response devoid of anything meaningful.
You plan to actually discuss any of the very valid points they brought up or you are going to continue to try to play cute and go “oh it’s a difficult conversation”? It sure is, that’s why we are having it here and now. Why even start this thread if you’re going to be this disingenuous with your responses.
Microsoft Tay was my favorite. The shit that AI posted was wild.
“Swagger before the internet was even a thing” captioned on a photo of hitler and posted on twitter. Holy shit she didn’t last long once 4chan got wind of what Microsoft was doing.
In tandem with my current settings. Adding a Firefox add on to spoof my user agent worked for me. I set it to random and disabled all the Firefox user agents.
I’ve had the opposite issue. I’m so turned off by the tracking and every app containing the equivalent of a signed agreement to scan your blood and DNA. No thanks. I’ll stick to boring old Linux where my computer does predictable things, except for when I go rooting around in .bashrc 😅
A functional microphone. I’m not talking about the ones in every pair of headphones. I mean a quality microphone for like $25 to $50.
A lot of interviews and work is conducted via video call. I conducted an interview recently where someone couldn’t get the static on the microphone to go away. Cheap dollar store headphones. It was annoying and extremely distracting. We had to end the call early because of it.
I only eat once a day usually. Twice if I’m feeling really peckish but the second meal is usually a snack bar or a handful of trail mix. You save a ton of money when you don’t cook, buy food or eat out as often.

All good my friend 😁🍻
No worries. I was just making sure I cover all my bases 😅
A bath? Not in years. A shower? Daily.
I’ll give it a shot. I’m open to trying new things. I just wish I could wake up and have one day where I didn’t feel like the tin man without any oil.
