IT folks are exactly the people who will be early adoptors of technology. If lemmy can start growing to something approaching an early majority, then we'll see a big shift in the demographic of the user base. Unfortunately, that's a huge gap in expansion.

Honestly, just a depressed and jaded one. I'm not saying it's right, just where I'm at.

Supposedly, there's the second ammendment. Unfortunately, the people who are 2A advocates are nearly 1-1 with Trump supporters. So no.

Didn't want to put too many details in the question for privacy sake. Knew a guy with your name in college, was curious if you were the same. Have a great day!

Likely durability and portability. Think of it as something they use month over month and just mark the day with something like a string band. Bone would be light enough to keep with you, strong enough to not break, and common enough to be available for household use.

There's an app called tasker that let's you set up some pretty deep automation on your phone. I've used this a set up a grey list on my phone.

If a call comes in from a saved contact, all is normal. If it's an unsaved number though, it doesn't ring and goes to voicemail as if I just didn't answer at all. If, however, they call back within two minutes, it will ring as per normal and I then know it's, likely, someone who actually needs me.

I set this up because my phone number gets passed around at work quite a bit. If someone really needs me, I always figure they'll call more than once or text after a missed call.

At the same time as my wife after my daughter has established herself and no longer needs us. I don't want to be here, but they need me right now. As soon as they don't, I'm out.

My exact thoughts. Give me this choice at 19 or 20, sure I'll restart. Now though, the money would just be nice to provide security to the most valuable thing - my girls.

Same, was always a Kim stan.

Thought about it, but I never really posted at all so there's not much to poison. I may end up running a script that edits all of my comments to something redirecting them here, but Idk if I have the motivation to do so anytime soon.

Yeah, literally un-installed RIF the moment I heard about reddit bs. RIF was reddit to me, so I'm done with that now. Pretty much the only time I open that site now is when I Google "whatever whatever reddit" to find actually useful answers.

You sure you didn't just have a fever dream?
