Seems anecdotal!
It’s certainly hard to get to know your neighbours in a glass box in the sky.
Why is this aimed at ~30yo in particular?
Growing up, my parents and grandparents had the same neighbours for decades, even in apartment buildings. Of course they knew and talked to each other frequently. Hanging out in each others’ apartments also happened on occasion, drinking some pálinka and listening to the radio. My dad used to go down to the ground floor to watch the evening news and story time at the superintendent’s apartment along with the other children in the building. The only person who had TV in their commie block.
This already changed a bit in the late 80s / early 90s when I was growing up. People started moving around or dying. Out of the city to live in burbs. Or just left for another country. My dad was also less jovial with people as he couldn’t stand stupid, so he often drove neighbours he disliked away.
Once I grew up, I moved into the apartment of my late grandparents. I still talked to my direct neighbour on a weekly basis, but by this time most everyone else died or moved away. Also I had to introduce my girlfriend now wife to my neighbour at least monthly due to her… seemingly selective dementia.
I’m in my forties now, and both at this and my previous apartment I’ve made sure to always say hi to neighbours. Oddly at the current place, the thirty something year old neighbours approached me first, stating they do some sort of communal hippy living here. They seemed friendly but then also moved away within a year or so.
I have a small front loader, F12B8NDA
I leave the door on it open between washing cycles.
It’s a non-iot device that I can program to start the wash cycle at specific times, E.g. Load it in the evening but start at 4am so it’s ready by 7am. Yes, cycles are long but it’s super efficient with both electricity and water use. It’s also very quiet even during spin.
It plays a cute chime when finished.
Add Sexy Losers to the list. Very defunct, but platinum.
You might be on to something. I was not breast fed, and I’m not a boob person in particular.
Now we have to wait for another anecdote from someone that was breastfed.
I have the opposite experience. Hallucinations out the wazoo.
I usually end up using Llama through duck.ai
Have one of their smaller model washers for the past ten years. Zero complaints.
Please refer to me as Oregon Trail generation.
And as always, GenX just forgotten.
If the BNPL offer comes with 0% interest and you pay with debit, or a credit card that you always pay off timely, I don’t see how it can be such a bad thing. Spending your money immediately, especially with the inflation accounted for, a fix $50 over twelve or twenty-four months means you actually came out ahead theoretically, since your money went further.
The only catch here is of course that vendors will price their goods accordingly, where BNPL or loans will be the only way to afford their goods.
Bitwarden’s recent licence “oopsie” has shaken folks trust in them a bit. Not that it’s not a good software currently, but now we know what may happen at a moment’s notice.
SwiftKey on Android I’m guessing? iOS version only allows two concurrent languages sadly.
Grabbed em anyway this morning. It’s the “Window Manager” config option.
Yeah. I have it keyed to shift+meta+arrow keys iirc. Works for moving them up and down too. I’m phone posting, but I can look it up later if you want.
Hmm. I have xfce4/wm and I can move windows around (after mapping keys) with Win (oops) Meta + arrow keys and some Shift & Ctrl combinations.
Or are we talking about moving then around with the arrow keys instead of grabbing them by the title bar or something instead of tiling and moving them between monitors and workspaces?
Wish I knew what half these acronyms stand for.
Edit: Actually it’s not that many.

Anecdotal, I have Russian friends (a couple and their kids).
The dad is really apologetic for his country. He also laments not being able to go back to visit his parents, because his profession would likely be in very high demand by the military so he doesn’t want to risk getting pulled in for service (even though he’s in his 40s).
The mom already went back once, with kids. She says that the population in general, in both Moscow and the countryside, seem really oblivious to what’s going on. There’s a huge disconnect and often even disbelief about what’s going on further west. Likely due to govt media propaganda only running special operations victory headlines. Also those that are able, but down on their luck and fortune, are happy to sign up with the military for (relatively) good pay, especially if their role is not something that makes them fight at the front line directly.
