Break time is *critically* important. You will not, in your future, look back and wish "gee, I wish I had spent more time doing work." You may, however, find yourself wishing you spent more time with the people who are important in your life.

I don't think very many people share this opinion, as this is widely unheard of. A couple pretty specific internet searches provide no hits documenting it, and the fan base of Cobra definitely aren't the sort to care about such things. (But this does sound believable!)

Okay, okay, I get it! It really looks like they're going for "Detroit Style." Square pan, sauce on top. Bet there's pepperoni underneath that cheese! I bet you enjoyed the heck out of that!

If there isn't an option you're finding in PayPal account settings, maybe try their support desk? Common for streamers to setup the free business account and for the confirmations to be username, not legal name. (Set mine up like 8 years ago so I don't remember steps)

I see we've fully attained the stage of Bluesky where random people attempt to start meaningless arguments over meaningless things. This ironically bodes well for the ongoing growth of the platform. I'm still concerned about hostility towards minority communities and SW's. Fix that and win imo.

These are really good thoughts. I strongly swing between phases of "yes multiplayer" and "no multiplayer" and this definitely helps explain why at the design level. (There's also, yknow, people.)

There are these great topiaries on 33rd near Victoria in Vancouver. Last night I finally stopped to get a good picture of them. The owner of the house was outside: please make sure to zoom in on the first photo to see HOW PLEASED he looks that Iโ€™m appreciating his work. :)

Alright, here it is:

ezlinux.site

I'll be adding stuff like subheadings and more advanced stuff like terminal basics later on, but I think she's good to go as is.

Feel free to share the page around if you know anyone Linux-curious!

Also, I'm open to input, so please do share your thoughts.

Probably best a conversation had at a mutually agreed time and place when demeanours were calm and listening was most possible. Unless, of course, this is just an after-the-fact update, and similar things did already occur

A big piece of that is having spaces apart from one another, pauses between interactions, and respect for boundaries Posting here was JJs way of processing. While it might feel unflattering, that was their feelings at the time Signing on to the thread is... Muddy.

Familiar with this pain. Years of training have me better at pumping the brakes and letting my brain mull it over a bit, but it still happens I will start messaging "my friend" instead of answering in real time if I feel my heart rate increasing Everyone whips out their phones at any time anyways
