Love that you have Joplin on the list! I started using that recently to handle all of my notes and it’s been great.
Project Zomboid. That’s the most recent game I can think of where I reduced the difficulty (and that’s coming from someone that has nearly 400 hours into Elden Ring). It’s not that the game is tougher than ER or anything like that. It has a ton of cool mechanics and detail that are really enjoyable if you’re into zombie survival games, but the zombies can really swarm you in that game and you won’t live long.
It also has sandbox mode where there’s no zombies and you can focus on farming, building, etc.
I’m on an iPhone 12 and my backup phone is a Nexus 5 that has probably had about 10 different ROMs on it lol. 🤷
Capitalists don’t know shit about what the working class wants. These video game folks continue to prove this true.
The area I’m in has skyrocketed and has some of the highest rent I’ve ever seen in my life (saw $5400/m for renting part of a house.) The folks moving here are mostly remote workers from what I can gather, so they basically make it impossible for other residents to afford rent. I’ve talked to waitstaff here that say they can’t even live in the town they work in.
I live in the southern US where people keep moving to. I don’t know why they’re attracted to this place. My partner and I both hate it and have plans to move to the northeast where it’s a little more remote and there are less assholes per square mile.
I have unlimited and I’ve seen a few people take 2 weeks off consecutively. So it seems like the company is pretty flexible and doesn’t put artificial limitations on it. That said, I’m pretty sure even a month off wouldn’t fix the damage that’s been done to my brain from years stacked upon years of redlining it to write code and solve problems. I find as I get older I need more time off to truly disconnect.

“We’ll keep the genocide going but change our public language to make it sound like a ceasefire is on the table.”
I’m in tech and could never take myself seriously every again if I built this.
They’re just going to move the goalposts on you again. Capitalism lovers seem to think that if it doesn’t immediately work 100% right away, then it’s trash. They provide nothing of substance while criticizing even the smallest attempts towards actual progress. “Capitalism works for me and allows me to buy pointless shit while dying for nothing, therefore no one should even try.”
Meanwhile in Texas: “water breaks for outdoor workers are banned!”
We all have McMicroplastics in us.
I’m lovin’ it!
My graphic design teacher in high school had a PowerPC and that thing was awesome.
It’s really up to personal preference but I’m a big fan of the metal unibody of Mac laptops. While my friends’ PC laptops plastic bodies were starting to separate and show wear, my laptop was still looking mint. That alone also helped determine how long I kept a Mac laptop going (I was on a 2017 MBP 13” up to just recently and the body is still near mint).
So while it could be perceived as a simple cosmetic preference, it was also about the longevity of the laptop’s use.
That said, I have an ASUS ROG Zephyrus that has a pretty solid body, despite being plastic. Some of them have gotten better, but a lot are still flimsy crap.
It’s the same reason I prefer the body of my iPhone, vs the multitude of plastic Android flagship phones I churned through back in the day. The G1 still holds a place in my heart though and had a metal body (and I still have it in its original box!)
Before I landed a good job, I was buying used Macs for years. Mac of All Trades is your friend.

This is actually a step above the Air for that year.
Every inch of America is made to squeeze profit out of the working class. Had to pay an ambulance fee when I broke my wrist. It was ~$1200 iirc.
