  Gotta leave for work soon, but I am in bed, scrolling here at 7am. I feel this in my sould.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨flouride⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  I am still concerned about fluoride, but for different reasons. The federal government says there is too much natural fluoride in our water so we must import water to dilute it. The federal government doesn’t trust us with police officers, or politicians, but surely the public water company isn’t corrupt or incompetent…surely.

  But hey, our teeth are really white and no ones died from flouride, far more likely to die from sudden lead.

  If I remember correctly, they don’t have mammalian glands and instead “sweat” thier milk for thier young.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'll sleep when I'm dead⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Exactly, I’ll sleep, early. 6am is early, right? I am sleeping, early.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  See, that may be the case. Or it might not be. It’s a risk vz reward right now. I am not good with computers and have had my PC, laptop, phone and smart watch, inexplicably break, get stuck on boot and had to have them repaired. I just know my mistakes are easier to screw up my computer and data on linux. So the worse MS gets, the more I am willing to risk it.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes. I have win 10 and 11 devices. They both lack certain options and I’ve had to go around them, like using control panel. In this case only the win 11 device is at risk of getting much worse.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Right, I forgot, MS doesn’t want you to have control what programs are doing or how your computer works. Corporate way or…linux.

  I may be technologically challenged but Microsoft has been steadily selling me on linux ever since windows 10.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Microsoft finally officially confirms it's killing Windows Control Panel sometime soon⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  In favor of what? I still have to use control panel because some things are seemingly unreachable by the “settings” menus.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Fast-food chains battle for low-income diners with summer value meals⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s been good, pushed me to shop more local.

  used to be national chain fast food was cheap, buy a meal for ~$3-6, and local chains / restaurants where more expensive, $7-15.

  Now I can go to a sit down local chain for $7-20 or get a fast food for 15-20

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨“Don’t let them drop us!” Landline users protest AT&T copper retirement plan | California hears protests as AT&T seeks end to Carrier of Last Resort obligation.⁩ ⁨⁨10⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I have family that lives outside of LA, that are still on copper lines for phone and internet. How, idk.

  Also, our neighborhood just got fiber access a couple months ago, and we live in a decently large city.

  Copper landline for many, is the only option available that isn’t satellite.
