I almost feel like there’s an answer there for you, but I can’t put my finger on it.
However, last night I had a vision about th singer of Motorhead. I think it means something…
Thanks for your words! I wish the same to you (your description of excitement is so awesome!)! Hang in there!
What your words triggered in me are fairly old emotions. Those two bad relations happened many years ago and now am I with someone I hope will last (you never know, but fingers crossed)
Am so sorry to hear about this. Your message makes me wonder about two past relationships
(1) In one I spent years with someone and it actually was a very toxic relationship, but I didn’t realize it during the whole time. What happened was that when I got dumped, I thought I’d die and instead I got over it very quickly by noticing how much I’d lost of myself and how I was rediscovering of myself. It turned out I was able to flush it from myself in less that 6 months. It probably also helped I had finally found what I wanted to do for myself
(2) About a year and a half after the previous relationship, I found someone I really wanted to be with and who made it incredibly hard to get together with. I worked so hard and then we got together. After a month together, she cheated on me with my (then) best friend of several years. It took me years to get over this and we’d been together for just a month. Somehow the fact I wasn’t able to fully live this relationship hurt me way more than the previous long (but horrible) relationship.
Finding things that you enjoy doing helps a lot, but mainly it’s time that heals your wounds.
Thanks for coming to my TED talk

When I receive things like this, I make sure to open Gmail from within Firefox with all extensions meant to defend me (like NoScript, unlock origin, privacy badger, https everywhere) and then I hover over the gigantic button “check my activity” and see if it leads to a accounts.google.com link.
Either way, I then copy the link address without clicking on it, and open it in a private window to see what happens. If it’s a scam, the page it opens has a legit looking, but wrong google address (aka, it cannot really end with google.com). Then I just stop having fun and don’t continue nor type anything
What does it look like in your case?
You’re certainly right about observing this incongruity. It’s probably one statement that feels so obviously correct that people upvote it without even bothering to read the article.
“TurboTax must die”
That would be the perfect title of a multi billion dollar franchise about rebels from the IRS tryijg to thwart known scammers from Intuit.
I’ve seen all the movies from 1 to 7 at the theater (4,5,6 when they were remastered right before Episode 1). I like the old 4,5,6 though they’re not perfect, but they are enjoyable. I tolerated 1,2,3 and applaud their existence since they made me discover Mr Plinkett and Red Letter Media. When I saw Episode 7 I had to stop. It felt too much of an insult to the viewer’s intelligence (it wasn’t enough to have two Death Stars in Episodes 4 and 6, they had to have a Mega Super Death Star in Episode 7… But this was very much not the only awful thing about the movie). I’ve watched Episode 8 on an airplane and I still have to watch episode 9
The internet is fine, it’s social media and the people using it that are toxic (aided by algorithms pushing people to give their own worst for all sorts of reasons)
I’ve read it this year for the first time. It’s fantastic. So short and so powerful.
So are there any good news in this respect?
Operation Mindcrime is a gem!
No way you have the tools to make that estimate! Admit your lies 😄
Silence!
Don’t tell the holy secret to the world!
I stopped using Windows in 2008 (juggling between a mixture of Linux and Mac OS). One of the reasons, is that at that time I thought Windows was legitimately a mess.
Over time, I thought it got a bit better when seeing it on friends’s computers.
Due to laziness, Windows 11 got installed on my office computer (which I use 1% of my time) and I thought it was honestly pretty good (as in, I never thought about switching back, but it was fine to use it when necessary).
Now that they plug in ads, I’ll certainly want to switch back /s
Very recently I started noticing that if you search anything on YouTube you don’t find what you need at all unless you add many keywords and even then, the site only gives you one coherent answer and tons of garbage you don’t need.
Mostly because, instead of giving you videos on the full set of keywords you use, it gives the first video which is based on all of them, and all subsequent videos based on just a single of such keywords, so mainly you get a lot of crap from influencers or such.
Has anyone else experienced this and knows if there is a way around it?
I don’t know if this fits the bill but, for several years, I heard the story of a man who had been released from an asylum and spent all his time on the sidewalk of a large road pretending to be a tree, raising his hands and fingers as if they were branches and bushes and would wave them in case of wind (also imitating their noise). He was nicknamed after a specific type of tree I don’t remember now
I’ve never met the guy, but it stuck with me since I heard the same story from various people who didn’t know each other

Well, you’re right in principle, but with my (old, but current) Mac+Intel configuration Firefox is not as sleek as Chrome and also often Firefox turns the fan on while Chrome doesn’t (it may just be that Google is bricking Firefox when you’re on YouTube, for example)
Anyhow, I’m trying to use Firefox as much as I can (I’ve always done so), but it’s always been true it was a better experience to use Chrome on my setup (and I’ve never used Safari)
Edit: why the downvotes? To teach me a lesson? I said he’s right, but I do have an actual problem and cannot yet make the full move (and am going to check out the suggestions below. Thanks!)
