now that i think about it, this would be handy for remote support techs walking a user on-site on what to do…
“you see the 3rd switch from the top that has the cisco logo? i’ll need you to power cycle it”
2 hours later
“oh i found it”
vs.
“you see the girl with the blue hair? unplug the box her hair’s connected to”
wow so much great memories lol
their good devs and engineers have left
i feel like i’m not actually against ads. i’m against the abuse of ads, that take away from the user experience…
i won’t mind seeing an ad if it doesnt get in the way of what i need to do on the pc. i don’t need an ad popping up when im trying to work on something, launch an application, download a file, etc. an ad in the corner, big enough for me to be aware of it, but obscure enough to not interrupt me will serve its purpose.
problem is, ad exposure is non-regulated and i can’t believe how the constant ad spamming doesn’t seem to phase a lot of people.
ahh yes the “portables”
the fellow students in school growing up that always blew off paying attention in school and disrupting class didn’t just disappear… sure i saw less of them when i wasn’t confined to those public grade school walls, but it’s been a harsh realization for me as I’m seeing them again as adults buying into and spreading the misinformation.
My wife has this issue all the time and she says it’s her tell for when she’s dreaming. She often uses it as a que to help her lucid dream
my tell is when i snap the rubber bands i usually wear on my wrists… in dreams, i feel nothing when the band snaps against the skin
i had one recently and i tried to make myself fly after realizing it was lucid, but couldn’t lol… i also thought about jumping off a cliff but my brain still said no that’s still a bad idea… my sub-concious is trained i guess
lol no kids…
that’s the thing… by me saying talk to kids… im saying address it all… i’m looking to educate them, not shelter them…
if/when i have one, i’m telling them this world ain’t all sunshine and rainbows… here’s how to make the smart and wise decisions…~then i’d hand them their baby bottle~
i’m wouldn’t be looking to curb curiosity tho… that’s not natural at all… instead i’d be looking to address it head on…
i’m telling my kids, yes this happens, this is a thing… share my viewpoints on the dangers of abusing it… and reprimand them for treating it as such.
they’re still going to do it… but at least them knowing that i’m well aware of it as a parent would lessen risk of them turning it into some sort of secret addiction of theirs.
wildly understated too…
like… middle school kids today navigated mobile devices with ease when they were toddlers…
they’re gonna know what a vpn is before they leave high school.
we’re just better off addressing the issue head on than trying to band-aid it… it won’t work
or you know… talk to your kids
heck even inside these borders… the concept of timezones blows their minds at work lol…
them: “yeah let’s set a meeting at 9am!”
me: eastern? pacific? central? help me… heeeelllp meee
after i moved from the southwest to the pacific northwest and got baptized by the snow for nearly half the year… i very much agree
😆 😆 😆 i apparently missed out on a lot!
oh wow i don’t remember that part. i wouldn’t be surprised tho.
but what about getting one for your dog?
good ol’ justin tv lol… i was one of the first few streamers on it… i know that sounds hipster and all, but i miss those days… i got in trouble for streaming family guy and games that didn’t get released yet 😂
when crazy stuff happens and people ask me “can you believe a person would do such a thing?”, i’m like “actually yes, very much so”
i’d like to have a graphic design community on here
