When my nephew caught covid, the school told his parents to keep sending his two siblings to school. My niece tested positive for covid a day or two later.
My old Lenovo tablet has the USB port upside down on the plug, and consequently, the micro USB also plugs into the tablet upside down. And for some reason, stupid thing always breaks the little notches on the micro USB, so you have to position everything in a way so that it won’t slide out while charging.
Campaigners have called for “mini Holland” walking and cycling schemes to be introduced in towns across Britain after the first London pilot scheme produced dramatic results....
Clyde Loakes, the councillor who led the introduction of the schemes, faced numerous threats to his safety. “There were some pretty hairy interviews with the police about some of the stuff that was coming my way,” he recalled.
Freaking heck. Let me guess, they were all drivers getting butthurt.
Walthamstow isn’t too far from my area, I’d love to see it expand here. I’m so sick of the Chelsea tractors.
I have three yahoo email accounts I still use, the oldest from about 1997 and surprisingly, the spam folder on that one rarely gets anything. (The other two are leftovers from when you had to get a yahoo account to make a geocities site). I really like the disposable addresses. Luckily I signed up back when you could have 10 on one of them. Then they ditched it for free users, but brought it back with the three limit. But I got to keep my 10.
Excite was my jam though. I was sad when I lost my excite accounts.
That’s awesome! I’m still dipping my toes into Linux Mint. I was hoping to use it as my main OS and save windows 10 only for games. Unfortunately my art programs don’t run at all on play on Linux or plain old WINE (I know there are native Linux apps for that, but I paid for SAI and my working files are in .sai format). So far, I’m only using Mint for my media libraries, and it works well for that and saves space on my Windows SSD. I have blackscreened my Linux once when trying on edit a video on kdenlive. Back to Shotcut for me!
I’m a lot like that too. An article about a person I never knew dying can leave my heart aching days, weeks or even years later. I see a stranger crying and I start to cry too. And yet other things can leave me feeling nothing. My mum is in severe pain from terminal cancer and there are moments when it gets to me, but other times I feel almost nothing and I can’t tell if it’s because I’m just a heartless cow or I’m doing a really good job blocking it out (schizoid skills ftw).
I’m like that with violent scenes, even though I know it’s fake and no one is getting hurt, I still get highly distressed. I wasn’t always like that, it got to that point more in my late 20s I think. I can play fighting games and such like just fine, although the bit in Witcher 3 when one of the women gets her face slammed on a table made me upset.
