Now you tell me! Lol.

That’s why they’re so pervasive, they work on the majority of people (that’s not us).

You have to share your email address with Konami for marketing purposes but they do disclose this in an obvious way.

Store bought: Tillamook Chocolate Peanut Butter

Ice cream shop: Carl’s Frozen Custard in VA. It’s pretty famous in the US. Easily the best frozen custard anywhere. They’re still using their old Electo-Freeze machines to make it. I get their chocolate vanilla swirl or strawberry. So smooth and creamy.

First thing I got told when I moved from NoVA to CO as a manager was people work to play. That has proven true time and time again. Snows a lot, everyone calls out and hits the slopes. Gorgeous day and they’ve just recently stocked a favorite fishing spot? Calls out to fish. Hunting season and got one of the lottery elk tags? Puts vacation in or unpaid time off since they’re extremely hard to get and goes off trying to bag and elk ok the western slope. Recently upgraded your Jeep? They’re definitely taking it off road on a mountain trail stat. Yeah, we have a ton of fun out here.

Teams boards (shared to dos)

Planner (personal lists)

Writing it down on a sticky note (priority)

Servicetitan Task Management (ugh, not a huge fan but required).

Monday (shared and I really like this one but it’s only for a particular dept’s needs).

I was just thinking this yesterday. I went from hating Teams, to liking it better than Slack, and then actually finding it super convenient.

I do really wish we could put chats and threads into folders. I have so many in the sidebar … so many.

Oh I’m sorry, weddings and prom are still very formal, true. But a lot are western wear these days. Good point.

Eastern and Western US work ideals clash all the time. I’m in CO and we are definitely a we work to play state not we live to work and I haven’t seen an actual suit worn by anyone other than a lawyer around here, even at church. As soon as someone from the east coast shows up it’s painfully obvious. We don’t have much tolerance for their go, go, go ways and usually show them a great time and a relaxed vibe to relax them a bit. They’re always perplexed at how we can perform so well with such a relaxed attitude. Doesn’t usually click that it’s correlated.

Mastodon. Easily better than Twitter in every way, even when it wasn’t full of garbage. Can’t say the same for Lemmy, it’s not bad, and in some ways better but in some ways worse.

They still made them too. 130V bulbs / garage bulbs / heavy duty bulbs all lasted far longer on 120V because the filament was thicker. They basically never went out.

Oh hell no. You don’t remember it coming out and everyone complaining about how convoluted it was. Pepperidge farm remembers.

I’ve never thought of APFS as slow. Didn’t realize it was.

About $22 currently plus shipping.

That’s why it’s still being used. Not a major reason to move on for MS.

Sad to see APFS not on the list (I know why, just wanted to compare).

lol. Wow.

Ohhhhh man. My friend’s father used to drive a Tempo to work. That thing was a steaming POS.

Oh look! A Wikipedia article that answers that.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_distribution_on_Earth?wprov=sfti1#

Of course there’s theories out there that say there’s a lot more water in the earth than we’ve been able to calculate.

Real answer is that our best educated guesses are still that.

This is an excellent idea.

If you really want to help and they want you to be on your own (and probably are enjoying their solitude) this is a neat way to do so. They don’t want help now but they may in the future.

Though, as a parent myself, I’m guessing they’d want you to save for yourself and realize they can take care of themselves. Good parents want what’s best for their children without thinking of themselves, it’s a sacrificial relationship.

However, what they do want is a continuing relationship. Call or meet with them regularly. Take pictures of you and your adventures. If you decide to start a family send them plenty of pictures of the grandkids and have dinner with them regularly if you’re close by.

This is a creative endeavor too. That’s why.
