That’s something. I worked at Dell for a year a long time ago and I can safely say it was the worst job of my life. Hated everything about it. I was jealous of the grounds keepers id see out my windows. Only lasted about 9 months. However, I still think their computers are decent as far as the big computer manufacturers go. I’d buy one today if I needed to. Although looking into manufacturers like system 76 makes me think I’ll go that route for my next laptop.

I wanted to but my pixel bootloader is carrier locked. Supposedly you can call and ask them to unlock it if you own the device but not sure if that’s true.

Yeah same. It sucks. I got into Google stuff back when Gmail was in beta and invite only. Admittedly I really only use Gmail, drive and the calendar. But the sso aspects is the part that is the hangup I think. I have so many accounts utilizing their identity provider solution.

Wow, I thought the same op. Incredible.

For Lemmy. Moving from the alien site to it has been fantastic.

🤗 I’m sorry your having such a tough time… Everything is temporary. I know it feels hard right now… Don’t make a permanent solution to these temporary problems… Things will change. Keep going. Best of luck to you. 🤗

God damn, that sucks… Best of luck pal.

1am geezus back when I worked at Bestbuy. 2008ish I came in at 3:30am to sell shitty netbooks to customers waiting in the lines outside.

Love those camels.

As a past retail worker. Black Friday was miserable. I worked at Bestbuy. I saw a lot of people breakdown and quit thay day due to the stress. Don’t encourage it. If you do go out. Be respectful and remember it’s just things that don’t really matter. I have never gone out and don’t support it especially the trickling of businesses forcing employees to work on Thanksgiving.

Yeah Gmail is the hardest. Just for the sheer amount of logins. Been with it was an invite only beta in like 2005. I got a paid proton account but it’s hard to shake it because I’m constantly needing to log back in with it.

Fwiw, I got on my first adhd meds (generic Adderall )with out any of these “requirements”… I did have a blood test the same day I got my first script but it was just a standard panel for becoming a new patient with my pcp. My new doc at the time just talked to me for about 30 mins and had me do a adhd survey. Also told my doc that I was using medical marijuana previously and she said that it made sense and even supported it. I also drink and listed as such but my level of drinking isnt anything concerning. I might have a six pack of beer a week. I took a chance and found this new doc as my old PCP was an asshat that acted like he never believed anything I was saying. I had stopped using medical marijuan already for a job that still believes weed is like meth or whatever which is annoying but it’s a good job. My doc is my age and gets it… When I described my depression systems as “millennial garden variety depression” she was like “where everything just kinda sucks?” I was like yeah! Find a new doc. This isnt normal. Best of luck. I’m on vyvanse now and its definitely been the best fit for me. I wasn’t diagnosed till my 30s. Wish I would of done this twenty years ago when I realized I was different.

Pop_OS! Is the one I chose to finally move full time to Linux. I have zero regrets. It’s been great

Yes, I have a wood burning fireplace just seemed like a good idea.

So many orphaned branches… Poor things.

Lolllll. Happened like two days ago.

And a respectable ascot.

And I’m pretty sure that was a German AA tower from the WW2 era. This is a much better purpose.

I’m flirty, thankful and sometimes say stuff I regret the next day (usually dumb jokes). Pretty good overall.

You did a good thing! alcohol can lower the shields for good or ill. Sometimes it can allow the facade we all carry about different aspects of our perceived selves to fall away and we can truly see what we need to do.

My poor wife if she gets too drunk just cries and cries. She has had such terrible loss in her family her entire life and when she drinks way too much she just sobs almost uncontrollably. It’s terrible. Because she remembers her brother, her dad, her grandpa, all gone tragically. She hasnt done that in a few years because we are getting older and drunk stupidly less but it was a thing for awhile.

Alcohol is weird man.

Or late at night…

Or ever…
