I got a Pantum laser printer and it’s free of all the rent-a-printer crap that the big ones are pulling now. It was easy to set up with my Linux system too.

Playing hypothetical games like this are poisonous to a relationship. My advice is to not do that kind of thing anymore.

I did once because the driver completely ignored my delivery instructions and I called to cancel the tip. They refunded it immediately.

Our building has a problem with theft, which I noted in my instructions, and they left the order in the lobby despite my clear warning to the contrary.

Yes.

My family was secular so I didn’t have religion shoved down my throat as a kid. I got curious about church when I was around 8. I went for a year or so then had an epiphany about how nonsensical it was that a loving god would consign people to hell and stopped going.

I toyed around some with occultism in my teens but have been an atheist ever since. Nothing about religion makes sense and I live in the material, rational world.

I feel the same way about grocery store club cards. “Let us vacuum up your buying habits to sell to information brokers while simultaneously ripping off everybody that doesn’t use a card.”

I just watched a TV series on Netflix about this exact scenario playing out in Poland. The rural folks weren’t having it but got steamrolled by the government anyway. High Water

Contact your county health & human services agency. Medicaid might be able to help, I don’t think Medicare will.

I used Power Delete Suite but with the API changes it may not work anymore.

No, it’s not safe at all. You should be disposing of that battery immediately.

Tail end of 58.

I got my first Linux system two years ago when I was 57. I took one of the COVID checks and bought a Linux laptop from System76. I had the choice of PopOS or Ubuntu so I just took straight Ubuntu. It was set up and running when I unboxed it and everything I need to know how to do I can just do a web search for. And that’s really not much. Best of all the thing starts up in seconds, when Windows was always taking its damn sweet time and shutting itself down for two and three hour updates when I needed to use it. As for gaming, that’s what my PS5 is for.

Buying a pre-built, pre-installed Linux system was perfect for me. It might be what would work for you too. It takes a lot of the guesswork out of where to start.

People know the difference between fantasy and reality. Unless someone’s questionable anyway I don’t think pretending to be evil will change someone. People play violent video games and don’t tend to go out and shoot up their neighborhoods. Same thing.

Good for you for listening, and good luck.

I’m speaking as a woman who’s been hit on at work. We’re paid to be nice to the customers and too many customers take it as some sort of come-on. It’s uncomfortable to be put in that position and you should be thinking of her comfort at her place of business above your own desires if you’re really into her.

I personally don’t think this is a thing. Acting is pretending. I used to LARP an evil character but it was all just role-playing. Being able to use one’s imagination and walk in another’s shoes (evil or not) doesn’t change who you are as a person. It just makes you a good actor.

It’s not appropriate to ask a woman out when she’s working. Service staff get hit on all day and they’re just trying to work.

You can slip her your number if she shows up at your place of business and leave the ball in her court though. If she doesn’t contact you then there’s your answer.

Warframe is free to play and nothing is locked behind money. it’s got a really steep learning curve but pushing past it is well worth it.

Well, now she knows he’s not worth the trouble of the first date.

If you post something public, people can access it. Corporations can access it. It’s one of the reasons I ditched all my social media that identified me directly. They can scrape my stuff, sure; but they won’t be able to link it to my actual name, face or existence in real life.
