Just a geek, finding my way in the fediverse.
I remember looking for a new watch awhile back and seeing a review that said “The battery life is outstanding! I get almost two whole days without a charge!” and thinking “naw dude”.
But, I also don’t like “smart” watches… or “smart” anything. I want a damn watch that can occasionally do GPS tracking when I want it to.
I don’t have kids, so yeah.
Edit: now that I scroll through the comments, I see this is a common theme.
Now there’s too many gay people in the population to keep them down.
Well if we made more gay people, let’s just make more trans people. Problem solved!
Damn, beat me to it.
I can also recommend this service.
Ooo, I’ll have to check this out. Thank you
There was a big headline recently about a tech company accidentally hiring a North Korean “hacker” (I’m just going off the headline) so that might be fresh in memory with regards to your laptop farm reference.
I haven’t read the manual but I don’t think you’re supposed to cook your glasses.
I bought a topo map a few weeks ago for a backpacking trip. Electronics are heavier and less suitable for that purpose in my opinion.

Do you work with me? I’m in the US south and my EU colleagues love “y’all” and have started using it (ironically or not :) pretty often.
Warms my heart.
Next you’ll start seeing your nose

The relationship with the instructor is something I wanted to touch on but thought I’d maybe rambled too much already.
If it’s a good program, they WANT you to succeed and they want to give you every possible advantage. You can show up to class, do the bare minimum, and maybe pass. But going the extra bit and asking good, useful, questions will get you much further.
I’ve never met an instructor who cares that isn’t up for side discussions, private tutoring, and literally anything that helps the student squeeze as much info as possible before, during, and after the class. I have zero respect for anyone who teaches a class and refuses to do anything outside of the prescribed class hours… Makes me angry just thinking about it.
Edit: also if the instructor is working in the industry then they have a network that you can tap into… which is often more important
Be careful about “boot camps”, and I say this as someone who teaches at one on the side (coding, not security). A lot of them are kind of like degree mills - pay money, get stamp, maybe worthwhile or maybe worthless.
If you go that route, do a lot of research. The biggest thing I’d look for is that the instructors work in the field full time and teach on the side (because they love sharing info and teaching the next generation). Hire rates for grads is also a good indicator… But take close note of where those hires are at and ask if it’s not published.
Any time I’ve come across these kind of programs where the boot camp instructors only job is teaching, the info is usually 10+ years dated and relatively useless past the absolute basics.
I just want to say that you’re a MVP for seeding that much for that long. Lots of TBs up there - you’ve helped out a ton of people.
Thank you.
Yes! I forgot about those but they’re also on the (auto block) list.
Same here.
So. Much. Hentai. Don’t forget the furries too - almost as many furry communities as hentai.
Garmin is where I landed too.
I couldn’t do the instinct 2 solar because of the 50mm size (I have dainty little wrists) but the instinct 3 solar is available in 45mm.
I’m over a month in and at 70% battery with minimal direct solar, but it does give it a 1-3% bump when I’m working outside.
At this point, I have to see how long it can go without charging.
(Again, I don’t use any of the “smart” stuff, just the heart rate monitor for sleep tracking - is that a new thing to require HRM for sleep tracking? Long ago, they did it with the accelerometer)
