Thank you! I’ve been trying to get an app to stay open. I thought I was losing my mind. Just set it to allow notifications. Your a legend. I could not find that info elsewhere online.

Udemy has a great piano course that you can pick up cheap (€11ish) if you visit it in incognito mode in your browser it’ll offer you a discount. The course is called piano for all. That’s how I learned and people tell me I’m pretty good.

Courses about how to make money online come down to drop shipping and/or affiliate marketing. But both of those need you to build an audience which is the hardest part, or just flood Facebook with ads, which costs money that people trying to make money…usually don’t have

Picking up women courses. No. Don’t do it. If you can talk to a guy, you can talk to a girl, just don’t be a misogynist or a pushover and you’ll be ahead of the pack. Go to a meetup.com group in your hobby interest and stay casual.

If you want to learn something useful consider coding codeacademy.com or video editing insidetheedit.com . The video editing course teaches some cool meta skills too like how to move forward in the industry. How to handle screaming bosses etc, which in some ways is more helpful knowledge and can probably help(transfer) a little with your dating life too.

I haven’t noticed. But I constantly have to forget/pair my steam controller again to get it to register properly in the last week or so. And I did a factory reset.

I don’t know if the character is cuter when you imagine it’s chin as its mouth. It’s def creepier but it’s got a lil something to it.

207.23 for me. Not enabled

Im 6 million years old now, and im attracted to literal planets.

I remember at 2000 the hur due jokes. But honestly everyone’s giblets are so shriveled at that age (unless enhanced through mummification etc) that gender becomes irrelevant. Kind of comes down to who has the best stories at that point.

The red bit of an eraser

I used line6 podfarm for a loooong time. And to be honest it’s perfectly adequate. These days I use guitar rig by native instruments just because I have komplete 10 and it feels new and fresh(to me), but it basically does the same thing.

The only people that will complain about your tone is other guitarists. But if your music isn’t for them…just choose something that will put you in the right ballpark and your listeners will not know the difference.

Check out VRchat. It’s free and frankly what meta is trying to build…but it’s already here

Civ V destroyed a week for me. It was like crack. I don’t know how I got loose of its clutches but I will never play that again. It’s like a time portal to the future. Suddenly it’s 2024 and all you did was boot into a game.

But 20% within 6 years seems absurdly high. Unless 25%+ of the land is already designated as ‘nature’ then all they need to do is not turn it into a parking lot. Still a pretty big ask.

The birth of a new copy pasta 👀

That’s what happens when you stick your deck in crazy… Always dock responsibly.

Don’t install windows on it too, unless you REALLY need to. Just use the Linux desktop environment it comes with and find Linux programs that will meet your needs. It can not edit videos over 1 minute long without really chugging. It works great as a music daw though if that’s your thing.

Adding windows to the mix makes it less stable, and you’ll need to do a special sequence of buttons every time you boot.

+If you do some edgecase tinkering, you may loose your work when it updates.

That being said, I love this aspect of the device and have Windows booted on it. I treat the instability like a fun puzzle. You gotta be into that if your going to do it. +learning Linux stuff is good nerdy fun.

The best tip I have though, is if you are into fps. Use the right trackpad to aim, set it up so 1 swipe from left to right rotated you 180 degrees and set up the LEFT trigger to fire. It’s a little backwards feeling, but once you get it, you’ll never go back. Took me a year before I could comfortably play fps on it. Then I learned that secret and finished the master chief collection with it. There are vids out there to explain it more thoroughly.

Last tip. Smelling the fan exhaust is absolutely worth the health risk 👍

Just a heads up, they released the watch and buds internationally yesterday. They are mostly selling on Amazon and Ali express now I read from an email I got. Here’s the list if you’re still interested https://intl.cmf.tech/blogs/news/cmf-by-nothing-expands-availability

Mine is mostly hooked up to my lounge tv via a dock and using my steam controller. Gets me out of my work room.

Invest in yourself. You may be able to follow an online course in your interest that your school doesn’t offer. Like water color or audio mixing, guitar, video editing, coding etc.

You guys are wearing socks?!

Imagine if they put a fraction of that money into…I donno…actually making their search algorithmically competitive.
