Very cool! Cat tail.

They’re all bad, but Firefox is terrible about this. Twice already in January I’ve had to make new passwords to pay bills. I was in my car when i did it and now i have no idea what those new passwords are. I’m so sick of letters, numbers, and special characters! No one is out there attempting to guess my gas company login password - they’re buying it from someone who hacked the gas company.

Probably the second (unless it’s something as common as trick or treat) as the implication may not hit me until later. You also have to judge the likelihood of follow thru- like when a kid get threatened with forever grounding.

I match your preferred timeline and wouldn’t change it. Happy that my childhood and young adult life is documented mostly by still photos with no backup.

The bond that keeps OP and their son together is family, but the bond that keeps you tied to your family is free food?

Ok - now i have to go Google because I’m not sure if you made this up or if this is something that they actually believe.

Try to think of it as your part time job to pay for school. At least you also benefit from the food and such, you kind of set your own hours, and you’re not dealing with the general public like a retail job.

I don’t know anything about Romanian culture. Is that wife plus younger sex partner kind of an older norm? There’s a term in French or Italian - something about happy hours or 6 o’clock girl, something like that, for the fling time between work and dinner with the family.

When I first came here, I was so jaded, with the expectation that every account was a bot or an asshole. Seeing the actual conversation among humans has been nice.

Both can be true.

Sometimes it’s better to not know and just say thank you.

It’s ok. I prefer club soda from the gun and most restaurants here don’t charge for that.

It irritates me when people say, “i don’t drink soda” and then grab a flavored bubbly water.

Thank you. Enjoying my first glass of big tank bubbly lemonade.

Throw 2 or 3 naproxen in with that and you’ll wake up in the night extremely unhappy.

How big the total lemmy userbase? We’re already anonymous.

Not timezones related, but i found California to be a work hard/play hard culture. You’re 100% on 8 - 5 and then all off, but still very active. Lots of people would go surfing or biking before work. Fruit stands and good fresh food and wine options made for frequent gatherings and much less ‘chill alone at home’ time. Nice free nature activities so almost every weekend= beach or mountains. That was pre-covid, in our 20’s, and with young kids, so that was part of the activity too.

Quit college after 3 years. Kids, marriage, and random jobs. Had an injury and found a healthcare interest during treatment and hydrocodone (made me extra chatty and i asked everyone there about their jobs and education). Associates degree in that and am on my 17th year. Fun, but I’m tired of the bureaucracy and looking forward to retiring in 5 years, if my knee holds up and they don’t piss me off too much before then.

I’ve tried different things - freezing, upside down, etc. It’s hard to hold everything without a helper. I just bought the adapter to contact straight to the machine. Will see how that goes tomorrow.

I bought the adapter to fill the bottles but i believe they have a valve protector of some type. I have to fill really slowly and if i open the valve to much they stop. Even if i freeze them i can only get them about half full. I got my tank from a keg shop. I think it was about $80 and $20 to refill. I’ll check for the hose adapter to the machine.

You went directly to the tank? I’ve been filling co2 bottle with minimal success.
