    Being able to use “I’m 60” to complain about everything and use it as an excuse to get out of things I don’t want to do

    I have a test to become an air traffic controller coming up in December. If I pass I’ll have the interview and school to look forward to next year.

    • At work - recruiting another team member, so we are not all constantly plate spinning and I might actually have chance to spend time planning.
    • At home - finally getting the pictures etc up on the walls.
    • Nationally - voting the Tories out.

    Hopefully putting myself out there more. I have a spinning and weaving guild that I’ve joined, but I’ve been too burnt out to go to any of the meetings. 😓

    I hope that orange bastard Trump goes to prison or dies in 2024. I prefer prison because he needs to pay for his crimes, but dead is good too. The only thing is it would have to be a really dumb accident out in public so there wouldn’t be any conspiracy theories. Maybe he could fall off the stairs while getting off his plane and crack his skull on the tarmac.

      People debate whether we landed on the moon - one of the wisest watched televised events ever. I would be surprised if a Livestream of him doing just that would be enough to avoid dozens of conspiracy theories.

      Same here. Had a car unexpectedly die and the new car lease messed up our financial plans. Should have our CC debt paid off by the end of next year.

      Do we know who’s playing the emperor yet? I’m hoping for either Sting or Christopher Walken.

        Christopher Walker confirmed to be playing the Emperor, while Sting will have a surprise cameo role playing himself.

          Wow … you scared me … for some reason this made me wonder if Sting was still alive or not … I never worry about Walken, he’ll out last us all

      If you want to heal your depression, then your desires are completely out of order…

      Let me renumerate and reorder your list.

      -Understand that desire or lack of fruition is useless pain, you are in control of desire

      -Contemplate why you must escape where you are, where you want to go, why you want to be there, and what you need to do so.

      -Obtain certifications or educational notes as they are needed

      The rest of the list is needless and will fall into place one way or another. Men think they run to a destination, when most often they run from.

    A miracle keeping the orange fuhrer out of politics and news, perhaps a conviction with actual time to be served. I know, I’m calling for a miracle as I said.

        Pretty much all the major brands are reportedly going to make laptop models with the Snapdragon X Elite chip, so any one of those really. I’m probably going to buy a Lenovo one since they have a good track record.

      I’m curious to see how this pans out when they start to ship. The hardware looks really promising, but I’m curious about the rollout for software support.

      I’m excited to see real benchmarks from shipping laptops with off-the-shelf software.

      The hardware isn’t the issue (well, it won’t be much longer) it’s the software that doesn’t exist that is.

        But nobody on the software side will take porting to arm seriously if the hardware doesn’t exist. Some essentials like browsers and the adobe suite got ported to arm already but as soon as there’s an actual audience lots more people will bother putting out arm builds.

    I’m really excited to start working with the engineers at work to learn how to rework the broken boards that go in the products we produce. I don’t know much about electronics and I’ve certainly never been to college, but I’ve apparently displayed an aptitude for understanding stuff so they wanna work with me to get the ball rolling. They’ve been able to convince management that my bench in the RMA department needs all the equipment a rework station should have. It’s all super exciting and I can’t wait to start.
