Many people my age have terrible boomer parents who just had kids because “that’s just what you do”. They didn’t even consider you could just not make babies.
Maybe we just think more for ourselves than the older generation.

You’re out of touch. Employers don’t want overqualified people. They are the ones that decide for you that you can’t possibly be motivated for such a job. You’ll only leave when you find something better they think, which is definitely true when you claim to just “bridge the gap”.
Happened to me as well, freezing up the whole system, especially with many/large files. None of the suggestions I found online actually worked. Happened on USB drives as well.
Then my whole HD gave up completely. Replaced it and all problems are gone. USB drives as well: turns out Linux at least tries to read it so you can attempt to save some data, while Windows just says it’s unreadable.
I tried it on a new Lenovo (AMD). The cursor size changed its size from normal to microscopic, depending on the application you hover over. Went back to X, no issues there.
Still can’t run Wayland on my system (Nvidia) at all.
Incidentally I just installed a new laptop that came with windows yesterday and damn, windows 11 sucks.
First you have to find a workaround to install without a MS account, then the default Bing search tells you to install Opera when you search for Firefox, I can’t find any settings (everything is a regedit hack now) and then I found a debloat script that claims it disabled Recall. So yeah it can be disabled (for now).
“Less than 5 books” includes 0 books? Otherwise those stats are hard to believe.
Yes, it tastes a bit earthy to me.
I got a tour of the place where they proudly show these cats in the most horrible conditions. Also, it doesn’t even taste good.
I remember always switching to another channel when ads came up, but later that became impossible because they all started ads at the same time. So it seems to be on purpose to prevent people from switching channels. This was in the Netherlands, though I haven’t listened to radio anymore since Napster came out.
It’s normal to get such weird brainfarts, like the call of the void or imagining murder or other bad things, just like when a song suddenly gets stuck in your head. A healthy person thinks “wtf brain?” but when you start to think “that’s a great idea I want to act on”, maybe that’s not completely normal.
hand over to the teacher
Weird. One teacher, so this is elementary school?
We only have to buy our own stuff starting middle school and it’s only pens and paper and such. And a backpack but mine lasted all 4 years.
spend an average of $701 per child
What are you Americans buying for school?
Some notebooks, agenda, pens, pencil, ruler… It’s not all that expensive
My yearly dental works always cost a fortune, but my teeth are great now, since:
A Dutch joke?
(keurig = neat, decent, proper)
But only on weekends when dialing in was cheaper.
Well Americans are kind of known for not keeping to themselves and being chatty with strangers, when abroad at least. Even personal questions etc. So it’s strange to draw the line at helping others.
What a strange and sexist question. I’ve been asked by random mothers to carry their buggy with kid up the stairs, off the train etc. before. If I would speak the local language where I live, I probably would’ve offered. Judging by the comments here, I’m glad I didn’t make that mistake.
I haven’t used it in a while but Aeroinsta was good and probably safe (despite their shady website). Gets rid of unnecessary stuff like ads and allows downloading.
In the last week, I came across 2 videos that started with an ad. Both were embedded YouTube videos. They must have found a way to circumvent adblocking.
It’s loud and annoying and I don’t have the patience for this. I just didn’t watch those videos.
