This person better hurry. I’m almost out of Total cereal and I need to know if I should restock.

I haven’t read or seen LOTR. Everything I know about it has been pieced together from parodies and references in other media. The magic the gathering crossover set was probably the biggest exposure I’ve had.

Also Pi Approximation Day.

Also a tech worker considering a major pivot. I have a fascination with electrical work so I’m wondering if taking on an apprenticeship might give me a chance to dip my toes in.

Totally agree! It’s seemingly gotten worse recently too. My phone is 5 years old and I was still able to replace the battery at home but it took special tools and a hair dryer. The newest Pixels and Galaxy phones look impossible to do with my current skillset.

Things like Fairphone and the HMD Skyline should be the norm going forward.

There’s a rule coming into effect in 2027 that enforces user replaceable batteries for devices in the EU. https://www.pcmag.com/news/eu-smartphones-must-have-user-replaceable-batteries-by-2027

Picking up new hobbies, investing in them far beyond what would be considered a casual interest, then getting bored or disillusioned with the community after 6-24 months.

• Currently working on 3D printing, though that’s been more of a means to get back into foam blasters because it’s far cheaper to print your own blasters and mod parts.

This year wasn’t great for MTG. Modern Horizons 3 warped multiple formats and most of standard was just magic characters in silly hats. The thing that pushed it over the edge for me was the commander fiasco. Everything about that situation from the rules committee making unhealthy decisions, Hasbro taking control and the fan base sending death threats crushed my will to keep going after playing for the last 15 years. Haven’t bought a card since.

Bloomburrow was pretty cool though. Wish we had blocks again so we could have spent more time there. Foundations seems interesting but I can’t bring myself to give Hasbro any more of my money.

But then you’d ruin Christmas for the cyber goths… https://youtu.be/eJc6-DgaQa0?si=M1w4RWEBfHW1_l3v

Cheat codes that are helpful in allowing people with not enough time to sit and grind things out or fuss with mods to play through the story while still interacting with the core mechanics.

At least it’s rent free.

By breaking production, I’m referring to a situation where someone, most likely in a technical job, broke a system that was intended to be responsible for the operation for some kind of service. Most of the responses here, which have been great to read, are about messing up things like software, databases, servers and other hardware.

Stuff happens and we all make mistakes. It’s what you take away from the experience that matters.

Always skeptical of people that don’t own up to mistakes. Would much rather they own it and speak to what they learned.

My weight loss started in a thread exactly like this. I read about someone using My Fitness Pal to track their food intake and consuming less than they were burning. I tried the same thing and within days I was losing weight and feeling better.

I lost 80 pounds over the following year, took up running using the Couch 2 5K program and have been maintaining that since 2018.

Finished my first triathlon last summer.
