Cheerwine Zero exists. It is a black cherry flavored soda. Idk if it is available outside of the SE USA, where I live. Wikipedia says “It has been produced since 1917, claiming to be ‘the oldest continuing soft drink company still operated by the same family.’” So, maybe less evil? I do know it tastes quite good.

SHHH! Don’t tell Gnome that there are options other than 100% and 200%.

I’m sorry you’re forced to live with her. I’ve been there. You aren’t alone, and you are stronger than you think.

Here’s a prayer/mantra/whatever that has helped me:

“May we be victorious over our fears. May we be happy without hope. May we be of benefit to all.”

You don’t have to be like her. You aren’t her. You are who you are despite her, not because of her.

OP didn’t say they were unattracted to them either. And if you saw my advice as anything other than a joke, that’s on you.

Telling someone you are attracted to them and asking them out is not sexual harassment. It might be against workplace rules, but that depends on the workplace. Having consensual sex with someone after a date is also not sexual harassment. It could be seen as “quid pro quo” if one of them is the other’s boss.

If at any point the person asks you to stop and you continue, then that is sexual harassment.

Tell him you feel shy around him because you’re attracted to him, and then ask him out on a date. Either he’ll leave you alone or you’ll get some. Win/win

Put the same text in 6 different languages (maybe: English, Mandarin Chinese, Hindi, Russian, Arabic, and Bengali to get as many scripts as possible?) on each side of the cube. Be the Rosetta Stone of the future. Be sure to get a native speaker to look over each text before you comission it.

That should be enough work to discourage you. :)

I got a better paying job. Pretty much every aspect of my life has since improved.

My husband has had an MSI bravo for a few years. Uses it constantly, and it’s great. No issues outta it whatsoever. However, he does not use Linux on it. He prefers to dual boot and the SSD is a little small for that (if you also want to install games).

Or as Daria said: “On second thought, hell is myself.”

Disabling JavaScript through ublock origin also does the same (horrible) thing, frequently.

Your parents are there.

The director was an amateur, and he didn’t align the grains of sand with the grain of the film.

Sir, a 17th Zorin OS has hit the download page.

Actually, I already do that. I have two two steam deck docks, one in the living room and one in the office. I still like having the dedicated device for streaming though. Especially since I tend to download movies/shows sometimes. Can’t be filling up the steam deck storage with non-games!

I also sometimes use the deck in handheld mode while my husband watches TV.

I bought a mini PC and plugged it into the TV. I use a “wireless mini keyboard with trackpad” to control it. My husband and I have been using it for years. Beelink’s mini Ryzen PCs are quite solid in my experience. I have Linux on mine. Firefox with ublock origin. No ads, like ever.

The APK for F-droid, because I just got a new phone.

Oh, I guess it was you who didn’t say fen. But it’s probably more correct to leave “fen” out, at least if you want to be understood. It is not s common word. I had to look it up.

As a native speaker, I’ve never heard the word “fen” in my life. So, that’s probably why they didn’t say that.
