I had severe headaches for years before a doctor that I trusted talked me into getting help from a local chiropractor with a good reputation. I’ve since learned a lot and would recommend a massage therapist or PT over a random chiropractor. Even then was skeptical. But this chiropractor was able to demonstrate exactly where in my neck the pain behind my eyes was coming from, provide me with some immediate relief, and help me with a path to long-term recovery. Biggest takeaway: posture is critical. Good posture is uncomfortable and tiring at first. You’ll get better at it and your muscles will adapt. It’s well worth the sacrifice. Wish I’d learned twenty years ago but better late than never.

It’s not you. There are many things you simply cannot do in the settings app.

Omg this was basically my experience too. I was so mad when I broke out notepad to show my friends how awesome I was and they were like dude

It’s an immediate response to cold hands. Even handling refrigerated chicken, not just frozen stuff.

My hands and feet are nearly always cold. Maui, sunny day sitting on the beach, cold feet. My hands never look quite as radical as yours, but the dermatologist says it’s Raynaud. When I have to handle frozen food or whatever it literally hurts in my chest. Kind of a lot. Do you get that too? … Weird how I sometimes forget to ask the internet about this stuff but I just googled and apparently chest pain isn’t uncommon.

HDR makes stuff look really awesome. It’s super good for real.

Slackware. Installed from 3.5" floppy disk.

I want the physical book for the shelf but I read the ebook on my smartphone. Way more convenient for me.

We know each other?

I can definitely Avalonia for cross platform UI. It’s amazing.

I don’t remember. Long ago. I’m sure much has changed.

My issue with XMPP was the lack of synchronization between clients. If my mobile was offline while I was chatting on desktop, mobile client would never have the same chat history as desktop and my conversation history would be fragmented. When I asked about it on some developer forum, they basically just said that was out of scope for XMPP and should be implemented in client. Which sort of makes sense if the client is a web client hosted somewhere but I wanted a thin desktop client like pidgin.im

I liked my droid.

This is the worst. Thanks for sharing

My wife once sat in the room for a very long time before someone came to prep the room for the next patient…

Really common. Hard for many of us to not do this. It’s the same when you’re in technical support; people lie about the circumstances because they don’t want to look bad in front of the techie. Or doctor. Or dentist. Or mechanic.

I enjoy your comment so much because your methodical and patient approach to debugging code is exactly what’s required to fix a printer. You literally are really good at computers even if your aren’t armed with a lot of specific knowledge. It’s the absolutely worst because troubleshooting without knowledge and experience is painfully slow and the whole time I’m thinking"they know so much more about this than I do! If they’d just slow down and read what’s on the screen …" But many people struggle to do even basic troubleshooting. Their lack of what you have makes them inept.

Last Epoch scratches that itch real good for me and it’s hitting release in a few days.

Oh really?

Do ssh-copy-id next please.
