Am doctor, can confirm. Don’t trust lying morons on the Internet.
his songs/poetry are terrible
To be fair, Tolkien’s songs/poetry are terrible. He was a great writer, an amazing storyteller, and an unparalleled world-builder. But he was not a lyricist or poet by a long shot.
The songs and poems do convey a lot of information and help build the world. But that doesn’t mean they’re good.
I was primarily a PC gamer. Life happened.
Time was already tight. I was working 2 jobs totaling ~80 hours a week. About the time I finally quit one, my computer let out the magic smoke. Rent went up, replaced my beater of a car, bought a house because rent was going up again, found out I was going to be a parent, house needed work, replaced my SO’s car, fixed fire damage to the house, SO quit their job, found out I was gonna be a parent x2.
Things just got busy fast. That computer blew the magic smoke 6-7 years ago now. I’ve saved up the money to replace it several times, but something else more important always comes up. I’d still love to replace it and game again, but I’ve been out of it so long that I don’t even really know what games are out anymore or what I’d like to play, and honestly I get more joy out of occasionally playing Smash Bros on the Switch with my first kiddo. The game is ok, but time with the kiddo is valuable.
The best time to plant a tree is 20 years ago. The second best time is today.
Today is always a good day to make the world a better place. Don’t add to the inertia.
Tldr, get a basic associates degree. Do more later if it will prove advantageous.
My perspective is from living in the US.
It’s always worth going to a local community college, even if you have no idea what you want to do, and taking basic classes (writing, speech, etc.). You can come out with a general associates degree without any specialization, low cost, and learn a ton of skills that are broadly applicable in any profession. And if you decide to get a specialized degree later, those classes should transfer in, saving you time and money in the more advanced/specific degree. But there are currently lots of jobs that don’t require a specific degree, or any degree at all.
I personally feel like much of my time in college was wasted. I spent 6 years in college (4 is typical) pursuing degrees because I felt pressured into going to college, rather than working some basic jobs, saving money, and figuring out what I wanted in life. I was fortunate to come out without debt (thanks to some fortunate scholarships and hard work), but also with no money, a 2-6 year lag behind all my friends, and a degree with very little earning potential that I’ve ended up never using. I was fortunate enough to stumble into a great career where we do look at what degree someone had on their resume, but only as a point of conversation - it’s fun to see what studies someone had, and ask them to share what they learned. For the job, we don’t care what the degree is or if they even have one.

For what it’s worth, logging out and back in didn’t work for me, but clearing data on the app did. Now if only I’d remembered to back up my settings…
Totally understand. I also have a Rush 5.11, which I love because I can change the pockets on the outside to match whatever I’m doing, thanks to MOLLE. But that bag sucks for travel. Not because it can’t hold anything, but because I got profiled hardcore. Every single time I traveled with that backpack, I got extra security screenings. I got tired of having to dump my bag out every time I flew, so I switched.
LTT backpack. It does what they say it does - holds a metric ton of stuff, fits under an airplane seat, comfortable even when loaded. Bought it to use for work, and I can fit all my work gear for trips as well as clothes.
Any app I’ve found that can do this requires rooting. Some ROMs include this by default.
Google does not include this setting.
That’s actually how I found AA. AP finally got shitty enough for me to bail a few months ago, so I googled to see where Rita went.
I’ve found Android Authority to be pretty decent. As a bonus, they have Rita!
Got me started on Feedly. Still haven’t left, although I’d be surprised if I still had more than a couple of the same feeds from then.
I think at some point someone paid me and I just never cashed it out. I think it was the default payment method for Google Play, so app subscriptions and whatnot just got charged against it until there was almost nothing left.
Oof. Big dumb. Thanks!
The fun part is you still can’t transfer out less than $1. I had 81¢. So I tried to transfer in 19¢ so I could transfer a whole $1 out.
Nope, can’t transfer in less than $10.
I was able to transfer in $10 so I can get my $10.81 out. But fuck, Google, if you’re the one shutting shit down, how about you let me transfer my money out regardless of how much/little there is?

While I agree (I paid for it on Reddit and Lemmy), the dev does disappear for stretches of time, like now. When my main instance updates to 0.19, I expect things will break in Sync as it hasn’t been updated since the release of 0.19.
That said, I’m using Sync to post this, so…🤷🏻♂️
I have T-Mobile and don’t have this toggle, so it’s not all accounts.
Edit: Well, ain’t that some shit. I have it in the app, but not online.
