Yay strawberries! I hope you get to eat from the mature plants.

Together for 16, married for 11 or 12

Good write up. Spotify is the lsdt for me to replace

In that form factor/size are the android handhelds better screens worth the trade-off of what I assume is better build quality from Nintendo (I’ve never used a ds so I assume the build quality is better)

Poor girl lol

I can hear it in his voice

To add to this users data, I used my supplied att router for Homelab stuff for like a year and it worked very well. I did go back to openwrt but didn’t really need to, just for familiarity’s sake. My networking needs at the time were headscale/wireguard and adguard home. All my other services were unaffected by switching routers.

I bought Hexen at one of those knife and gun shows that you have to pay to get into. 10 yr old me was way into it.

One month rent was the going rate for a real estate agent to fill a rental for you in my area 6 months ago. Paid by the landlord/property owner

You’ll have to chip me out of my coal house.

For just running a fridge and lights you don’t need too much solar/battery. They have 12v compressors now that are pretty efficient and blow absorption fridges out of the water in cooling. AC is a beast though. No getting around that. Heat could be wood, Propane gche or whatever. Not electric.

Every time you figure out what’s for dinner bam you gotta do it again.

Same for me, maybe I was a bit older but it scared the bejesus out of me and got me into reading scifi

That’s gnarly. I assume the Harry Potter calendar mimics the traditional advent week 2, where Mary and Joseph throw caltrops from Mule back as they flee the evil census takers on their way to start a new life in Bethlehem.

I agree, people were telling me to RTFM in support chats on irc 30 years ago.

Desktop environment

That’s cool you’ve played White Oak. Cool venue with a lot of good bands coming through all the time.

Karaoke is a good one. I’ll add trivia to that as far as bar things go. I’m impressed by people who do Karaoke. I think of myself as outgoing but that’s another level to me.

For active things there’s hiking, biking, running, climbing or whatever groups and clubs. A lot of that ends up being very social. Also, you can try different things until you find a group or activity you gel with.

There are likely different group games at your local game shop. Cultures will vary widely by location.

Church is a good place to meet people if you are so inclined. Some of them are full of activities and committees and such.

People often recommend live music shows in these kinds of questions. I do think that’s been true for me but I’m a “dance like no one’s watching” type of audience member.

The gym is a pretty social place if you go a lot and spend a long time there. Powerlifting is fun, easy to get into (if you’re already at the gym) and lends itself to long workouts where you talk to people between sets.

Have you thought of using an ftp server? That dir tree view used to be the default.
