If I were in Picard’s place I’d be upset too. They misspelled his actor’s last name in the product description. 🤦‍♂️

Everyone knows you tap the glass with the ceramic end of a spark plug. Bonus points if the window is tinted.

Now you’re just teasing me. 😝

Baking soda and super glue!

It’s been my understanding that you do not contact Google. You read their docs and you like it. Have I been mistaken?

Thanks! I’ve been in therapy for the past year and a half, and have been doing all of the hard work. I’m definitely in a much better place than before, but I’m still stuck in the freeze. I’m sure it’ll come back eventually, but right now, like you said, I’m just letting it go little by little. 😊

I already have a lot of free time when my boys go to their moms for the week, and it’s fairly busy when they are with me. Plus I work from home, and enjoy a good amount of autonomy with my workload.

You could say I am balancing both sides of this discussion. But I’ve been dealing with a lot of baggage — both from my marriage and other trauma from growing up — so despite my available free time, I struggle to find motivation to do things outside of the basic responsibilities of being an adult/father.

It’s not for a lack of want though. I have a long list of things I want to do. Some more expensive than others. But even the free stuff isn’t that appealing at the moment.

Ideally, I would like to get into exercising regularly, and pick back up on woodworking. I want to hardscape my backyard by building a stone patio/fire pit, and rebuild my deck. Today it occurred to me that I could build a chicken coop and raise chickens, and potentially sell the excess eggs for a little extra income. I also have to paint and decorate my house.

I suck at motivating myself. 🤣

An API that developers could use to integrate search in their projects would be nice. And that would also allow developers to create an app ecosystem.

This sounds very interesting, and I can’t wait to see what comes of it.

The game will be over, I will remove the VR headset, and continue living my real life. I’m sure in time the memories will fade.

This could also work with “I came here to drink coffee and kick butt, and I’m all out of coffee.”

It’s almost as if it’s better for humans to do human things (like programming). If your tool is incapable of achieving your and your company’s needs, it’s time to ditch the tool.

You must be high. That made no sense.

It’s not an oversimplification to suggest countering negative and hostile thoughts/feelings by doing something that makes you happy. In fact, that’s one of the first things my therapist asked me about: what do you enjoy doing for fun?

Red Door?

I just finished watching the episode where Dax’s symbiont was stolen. The saga before that with The Circle was pretty good.

I had never heard of Cypher before, but yes. Just like that.

I would want the superpower of linguistics: the ability to fluently read, speak, and understand any language ever spoken or will be spoken.

You can turn it off when in Mlem. It’s worth nothing Mlem is iOS only.
