Hoohoo

Blackout curtains on the sunny side reduce a lot of daytime heat.

It’s amazing how these people are using the Star Wars Rubublic’s tragedy as a how to manual.

This is some dark Emperor BS!

Pattie boy doesn’t see rear vision in 2D world, sorry!

Has anyone considered Putin might simply be a compulsive liar, but for some strange reason it’s not recognised in Russia?

“Change always comes too late” (Star Trek - Picard iirc)

You need to account for digestion. Put your best efforts in, and provide the right situation for growth. Wait the appropriate amount of time, and then some.

Think, grandparents say profound shit that doesn’t germinate with every grandchild until they’re long gone and then some. Not everyone is a timely learner.

The way that Google and Apple approaches programming is a little obtuse and it never gets out of the way.

Without someone like Linus Torvalds rewriting a whole new approach to mobile phones we’re all stuck with the majority offerings from lock-in corporations.

Then there’s telcos and manufacturers who never get out of the way either. So, even if we run to changemakers like FDroid the desired compatibility is still limited by a cacophony of weird restrictions and unknown difficulties.

With mobile phones we need to start manufacturing with Open Source to get the compatible-mobiles industry up to standards first. It’s not something that’s happening because those guys are far too retired to come back to a new front for machine compatibles - it’s 80s stuff.

Also, a non-java scheme would be a better way to go. Java development is all about using giant washing machines to spin out compilations from esoteric versions of fragile code. Having code that didn’t break every year would be great too.

Having moved like 50 times, and lost a few households of things I want back I endorse this message.

Don’t do decluttering because it’s a fad if you’re not the type of person it suits. I work with hundreds of tools and it turns out they are essential in the course of my regular projects. Decluttering is always an experience in stupidity for me.

That said, I don’t tend to buy useless crap because I hate retail environments both online and offline. Scrap is my go to because material costs tend to exceed my budget.

Don’t hate your scrap resources for no good reason! Hate it because it’s low quality or something. Most things I clear are due to it being someone else’s wheelhouse or requiring funds I don’t normally have (at which point plans would change). Time in motion and other studies!

Not knowing the law isn’t an excuse before the law in most circumstances.

No, they are calibrated and have technicians that set them professionally.

I’ve always considered open government to be registered opinions in real time. People log an opinion, and if it’s a majority opinion for that jurisdiction or electorate then the government must consider it as a bill to be reviewed.

Nailed it

These people always approach when you’re obviously under a heavy burden.

There’s always CEOs

Same. I grew up rebuilding bicycles and skateboards. I made toys to go with my other toys.

Fighting back against this nightmare world takes it out of me. People keep complaining about my tools and equipment because they think it’s some kind of compulsive disorder.

Telling people I do repairs, innovations and inventions on the side sounds like a mental health crisis. They don’t see the brainwashing they’ve been put through as the problem.

Dating is hard. 9 out of 10 actual dates are strike outs for a second date. Upping your batting average requires you to be the ideal candidate where you are dating.

Mastery of something has a 90% proficiency requirement. The odds stack up enough against a person to the point that any apathy at all might cause them to fail horribly.

Life isn’t unfair as such. It’s between hard and impossible. You really need everyone on your team to make it all work.

My advice would be to help those that will help you and never short them when it’s your shout. Remember names when you meet people, and don’t get distracted when you should be thinking about their lives. Every little interaction will be the light in your eyes and the magnetics in your charm. Start by lighting up your world and make people resonate when they’re around you. And travel a bit to meet people with added charm

After doing research on solutions I found that many people benefit from volunteering and joining groups.

The ability to look into other people’s needs and glean some joy from solving social issues is usually overlooked by modern society.

Also, people with religions tend to take delivery of life’s goals. They accept the social bindings that find them.

Allow people to seek you out, and take intrigue and curiosity from what is happening. Obey the social contract and get beyond the niceties of not really accepting people into your life.

If you’re surrounded by streets full of bums you could see it as your challenge to work with them, rally against their terrible choices, or escape them.

Experiment with meaning. Take them all out for lunch. Throw a street party for them. Hire a bus and take them somewhere. Teach them how to live again.

Accept your reality and it might accept you back!

Electorates per capita work better because they give the population of a country an equal amount of electable government. Positioning them as just Californians makes them a lower class citizen of the United States with lesser representation.

It also means that criminals will recognise the power of the Republican states and side with them for effect.

Antigravity looked like the clear favourite for scientists, but then they all went into astronomy and the age of the universe.

If there isn’t a machine to do it then maybe there’s a quick product fix, or we get contractors. For a manual labour intensive industry it’s amazing to see the lengths a lot of men will go to to avoid actual manual tasks.
