My ex always refused to wear a seat belt in Ubers because it "helps prevent being abducted by sex traffickers". He was a 6"3" 450lb black man. I don't think the seat belt would have made much of a difference.
Apparently it was some nonsense he heard on TikTok. I wouldn't be surprised if this was the same.
I was homeless in Phoenix in 2008 and it was beyond brutal. The heat was so intense that the soles of my shoes partially melted one day. I used to break into apartment complex pools just to cool down. And then monsoon season is a whole other beast.
I can only speculate, but maybe because TikTok and other social media algorithms were one of the main ways that the election was influenced by bad actors.
I'm quite sure they were referring to the many people who sat out the election due to concerns over genocide, which - fun fact - we're getting anyway, but now with bonus fascism.
Excuse me, just one question: What the fuck?
I was not orphaned but was homeless at 18 due to escaping an abusive environment. I've gone through my adult life with no safety blanket and it has profoundly impacted my anxiety and need for control. I've managed to build a great life and I'm very successful on paper, but people don't see the backup plans upon backup plans that I have in-place to have some sort of feeling of safety.
I've also found it very hard to relate to people my age because they usually have some sort of relationship with their family and often times move back in with parents when shit hits the fan.
I also still feel very unloveable by everyone around me and I'm suspicious whenever someone shows affection, because it feels like a trick - or even if it does feel legitimate, I know that they'll hurt me eventually. That's been a big topic in therapy recently.
Personally I find pirated games to be a bit of a pain to install on the Deck. I'd go with Windows for that use case.
Who tf is still using on-prem SharePoint? You'd think all orgs would have migrated to Sharepoint Online by now.
Strong disagree. You can absolutely be friendly with coworkers and enjoy working with them without crossing the boundary into your personal life, and this is usually the best for long-term happiness at work. This is especially beneficial whenever people change roles and move to management - it's exceptionally difficult to be a manager to a friend.
Any company culture that expects you to be friends with your coworkers is a dumpster fire. Run quickly.
I've worked in my current office for two years and don't know the first thing about any of my coworkers beyond their name and specialization. No clue if they're married or have kids, or what they do on the weekend. We never chit-chat. I am infinitely happier here than anywhere I've worked in the past.
Not a full hosting solution, but I use PerfectViewer on Android and it's wonderful. Connects right into my server and displays all of my books and Manga on a shelf layout. It only syncs to my server locally because I don't have a VPN to my home configured, but it does allow downloading which is handy when I'm traveling. I'm not sure if it has every feature you're looking for but it might be worth checking out.
