If you use a US VPN the “I’m not over 18” button turns to “Yes, I’m over 18”

There’s an internal dialogue, usually. Might even basically be a copy of someone else. That’s most of my conversations anyway. I am pretty social, it just doesn’t extend far outside my mind. I often re-use bits from these imagined conversations when actually talking with those people, but that usually doesn’t work out.
One on one conversations are ok-ish, but 3 or more people, are just a mess. Often I get no response. Either I wasn’t heard, or I talked at the wrong time, or whatever else. I’ll wait for minutes for the right moment to say something, and it’s still badly timed, or the conversation has moved on.

But anyway, I can have fairly rich conversations, even with multiple people inside my mind.
Also, my thinking works better when walking.

Imagined sounds, especially music can be enriched with light tapping of teeth, sucking around saliva and rumbling from tensor tympani.

On my hand. I have notifications off on my phone, they get delivered to my MiBand.

Also had a similar experience. 2 of us in class knew negative numbers, teacher told us our answers are wrong and that the answer is “impossible”, plus “you’re not supposed to know that yet”.

Not sure if “good” is the right word, but at least cool.

Torrenting, high speed mobile data modem (especially with manual selection of frequency bands on MediaTek), local OpenSpeedTest server (available as app), WiFi analyzer (most used channels), VNC client, the slowest x86 emulation in Qemu-based Limbo PC emulator, SDR receiver software (SDR++, SDRAngel, Welle.io, dump1090, SatDump), RTL-TCP server, SSTV decoder and encoder, HTTP proxy server, Kiwix server, NGINX web server/proxy, Navidrome server, Cloudflare proxy client, SSH server, VNC server (only for Termux’s desktop), satellite tracker, Mifare Magic NFC card programmer (MCT), audio spectrum analyzer, serial terminal.

I wanted to attach screenshots, but realized it’s way too much stuff.

Notify my employer that I won’t show up, go to doctor and wait in the waiting room. When the nurse shows up, give her the insurance card and wait for your turn. They’ll check you, and if it’s nothing special (requiring a specialist), you’ll probably get prescription for some meds to pick up.
Then you get those in a pharmacy. Either it’s electronic, or if the system is once again broken, you hand them the Rx paper that the Dr. gives you in that case. And then you figure out what you’re about to pay. A lot of things will be fully covered by insurance, but potentially you’ll have to copay. There’s also a chance the Dr. tells you to get something that isn’t covered, like some specific eyedrops, cough meds, probiotics (if you have antibiotics for example), etc.

The pharmacist may recommend a cheaper alternative, will likely tell you recommended dosage, tell you that once again this specific Dr. prescribed something that hasn’t been manufactured for the past 30 years, and in the rare case, tell you the prescription seems dangerous and to contact the Dr.
And also decrypt any handwriting/encoding.

I had luck with VNC, although it’s still worse than RDP. There’s also some RDP implementations on Linux that are apparently better, but VNC works well enough for me.
But there’s no sound, I don’t know if RDP has that. I’ve used VLC for sound forwarding. I also tried PulseAudio TCP module, but that didn’t quite work. With VLC I can do lossy compression.

What I wish would work better is X11 forwarding. That could be so awesome, just having the remote windows local-like. But from what I can find, in the past, programs used X11’s drawing features which would save a lot of bandwidth, while now they just draw pixel by pixel.

To give you some idea, I’ve tried it on LAN with gigabit ethernet, ping below 1ms. It would saturate the port and still be kinda slow.

I also found it OK-ish, at least after my usual disabling of BITS and SuperFetch (SysMain now, I think), and disabling auto-updates, I think in gpedit.msc, and using the provided BypassNRO.cmd to create local account.

Alright, maybe not that OK, but after the initial setup it ran fine even on officially unsupported computer made in 2007. Just had to modify the installer by merging W11 image into W10 installer.

Anyway, the Windows store or whatever isn’t that used, and I got tired of updating every random program coming from .exe files. But similarly I don’t like the large hops in versions like Windows 10 -> 11, or similarly with Linux Mint, so I went with Arch.

Anyway, I’ll be a smaller minority. I most liked Windows 8.1. It was really well optimized.

Eh.

No, no, you will. It doesn’t apply to human meat.

Also there are a lot more types of meat than beef.

The alpha-gal molecule is found in all mammals except catarrhines (apes and Old World monkeys), the taxonomic branch that includes humans.

Sounds like you could still eat fish, human and chicken (and other bird) meat as usual.

Or host your own VPN on home network. Or use Tailscale VPN, that also works behind CG-NAT, and can usually get direct connection.

I just always rip them off.

In China, coins and banknotes have all but disappeared

Wouldn’t that mean they’re far more used than ever instead?

My closest attempt at pronouncing that:

I’ve been trying to find it for a while now, but I can’t.

Constantly plays at Tesco supermarkets, goes like A ha a ha a ha, yuhoo yuhoo yuhoo, a ha ha haa haaa haaaa. No lyrics, just womans voice making these, I guess meant to be “happy and excited” noises made into a song that plays on repeat.

Pine64 devices like the PinePhone still use it for serial: https://pine64.com/product/pinebook-pinephone-pinetab-serial-console/

I think workers would be better than drones. Drones can’t even sting.
