Sketch up or an easy cad program so you can easily measure your stuff and the rooms to find ways to fit your furniture. I used sketch up when I moved and just a top down 2d quick line drawing of our house. Then measured our furniture as objects and moved them around to see where we could fit and what direction to put our bed etc

- Comment on Looking for help/guidance on how to setup a server for a business 3 weeks ago:
For email and calendar I’D probably look into proton. For other software tools i would start with services people like that you don’t have to manage other than be like the admin and as you go try and find alternatives and self host your own and teat it out. Maybe even something like digital ocean where you can just spin up a droplet that’s presetup for you and learn more and more until you’re comfortable to transition other people to it

- Comment on What I learned from 3 years of running Windows 11 on “unsupported” PCs 3 weeks ago:
I think a lot of people have switched to Linux and realized it was just a lot better, myself included. It took me a bit to let the differences soak in, just like when I got my first smart phone but after a bit of using it and trying things out you realize you should have done it a long time ago

I always turn everything off including my pc. I was kind of surprised the other day some of the people I talk to on discord never shut down their machines or at least put them in hibernation

So wasps inject you with stuff too? I always figured it was just bees since they leave their butt behind. Wasps can sting multiple so they hold on to their butt and made me assume they just stabbed you but didn’t inject anything
- Comment on Who all wants a silent spring? 4 weeks ago:
If you’re allergic to bees does that make you allergic to wasps too?

No idea haha, I know on the old model it had a sensor for each finger so it went by taps but the newer one says you can do it on any surface so no clue
