spoilerWhen the leader of the rebellion died in the attempted heroic scene and everyone was distraught and shocked, I was just think “Why do I care? He’s said a couple of lines and been on screen for about 5 minutes…”
I don’t even understand how the characters even cared about each other. Even in the story it seems like they knew each other for like a couple days max.
5 minutes before he was clearly on his suicide mission I said, “I hope Ray Fishers character dies so he doesn’t have to be part of this garbage for part 2”
Then he died in the most meaningless and rehashed way and I was glad for him.
By luck: meeting my husband online in a random forum. Self explanatory.
By choice: getting top surgery (a double mastectomy). What a literal and figurative weight off my chest! Being able to just walk outside without wrestling into a binder or being worried about if people noticed my chest was such a game changer. You don’t realize what a gift it is to be able to get up and go outside on a whim until you can’t do it.
I didn’t until recently. I wanted to give companies I valued credit, in some way. But, ads are completely out of control and it broke me so I started using ublock a few months ago. It’s so much better and I’m not looking back.
Love finding me. I’m not particularly feely and didn’t have examples of loving couples growing up. Did not see that coming, wasn’t on the horizon at all. Got lucky.
I’ve been saying this for damn near 15 years. It’s odd that people migrated from Firefox to Chrome in the first place. Obviously not everyone who uses Chrome did that but I know quite a few people who did and are now talking about switching back. These are people who generally believe independent and open source is the best way to go too.
It’s odd that people migrated from Firefox to Chrome in the first place.
I migrated from Firefox to Chrome years and years ago when Chrome was lightning fast with a bazillion tabs open and Firefox had some memory leak that forced me to reload a couple times a day. I have since moved back and realized all my old problems are no longer a thing, but I can definitely see why some would have made the switch and never tried moving back.
From what I saw. It was more Internet Explorer to Chrome.
Back in the day Firefox wasn’t as polished as it was now. Think more Open Office than Libre Office.
All machines had IE and it sucked, crashed but was default. Then I tried Chrome and it was good. Then moved everyone to it since the alternatives weren’t as good.
Years later, chrome is still good compared to IE, but now Firefox is slightly better. For all intent and purpose it’s the same but some qol features here and there made me move.
But for everyone else they don’t want or need to move. So until it gets worse than IE they’ll stay.
Unfortunately only chrome has full support for Dragon professional, and Edge can be made to work. The dragon extension for Firefox stopped working and Microsoft, who now own dragon, doesn’t have any incentive to fix it.
The unofficial supper via the ClickbyVoice extension doesn’t have a Firefox version.
I would love to hear alternatives that support link numbering and voice commands :)
I’ve been bootstrapping the shit out of myself, picking myself up everytime the economy kicks us into a deeper well.
Hell next year we’ll actually be breaking even at the end of the month, while we’ve been eating only 2/3rd of what our bodies require to get through the day in a normal functioning manner. I wonder how long it takes for this economy to actually make us homeless because it seems like that is only a year or 2 away.
I’m a graphic designer. When I was a teenager, I enjoyed making avatars and signatures for people on forums which gave me a headstart on developing some of the skills I would use later on. My parents pushed me into nursing but after two years in, I knew it wasn’t for me so I made the switch to graphic design and I’m fortunate that it worked out.
I think this path is great and I envy you a little. Very few people manage to maintain the passion of their youth and then earn money with it. I’m keeping my fingers crossed that this path continues for you!
Also got into graphic design after starting off on a path of really not knowing what to do, but leaning towards engineering. Went into that program before I just said “Fuck it, let’s try graphic design instead” and really it was the best decision I ever made. Got a job right out of school, student loans paid off within 5 years after graduating and I’m in a relatively fulfilling career making more than either of my parents made.
Well, I can’t kill myself until my cat dies because he doesn’t like other people and I don’t want him to have a sad life. Some people would consider that a good thing.
