Ah, you don’t know about the secret court? 😔 What a pleb!

…jk. I have no idea what OP is going on about either.

I think you meant to post this in Unpopular Opinions

I also don’t have a “most”. I can think of many, but I’m stumped at picking “most”.

I’m not into gardening much (no garden space). But I know most people exchange plant cuttings, sprouts and whatnot through online groups in several social media platforms

Look I’m not tech savvy at all, but I have been using windows for a very long time. Take the following with a grain of salt. Here’s my two pennies:

1: Windows has a tendency to run background processes as soon as it detects you are idle, and once those processes start they don’t stop cleanly if you resume activity. I find they will stop for good only if I do something that forces clearing RAM to start a RAM intensive process, such as restarting a game in your case.

2: The best deterrent to windows doing this shit in the background is to purge as much bloat as you can, and turn your wifi off if you are not using it. Turn auto updates off (or delay as much as possible). My laptop behaves pretty well on idle if it’s offline.

Since you’ve been to a psychologist for your assessment (is that what you mean by “psy”?) have you asked or considered the possibility of neurodivergence? I have suspected autism in myself for a while, and I resonate with much of what you said in regards to stimulus overwhelm, staying in your bubble, disdain for small talk etc. That’s pretty common in many autistic people.

I think it would be hard to isolate exactly how much of our daily lives we experience as a direct consequence of our IQ and how much is a consequence of other things such as personality, emotional predisposition, environment, and luck.

My IQ is pretty average (around 115 I think? I tested ages ago and I can’t even say the test was reliable). Some people insist I must be somewhat higher than that but I don’t know. I feel dumber every day.

My father though, he does have a higher IQ (I think 135 iirc) and it’s obvious to anyone that he’s a brains guy. Always top student in his youth and later a decent researcher, engineer and programmer. And yet he still makes dumb mistakes like everyone else, and his temper and personality will often turn a mediocre day into a bad one. He has a tendency to overcomplicate things unnecessarily, and sets high standards for others around him- you’d think being smarter would mean he wouldn’t do this, but as I said, intelligence doesn’t work isolated. I remember asking him how it feels like being smarter than most of his peers and his answer is always “bah!”.

So I don’t know if this answers your question, but there’s my two cents for you.

Short answer: no. You can even study two other degrees and be fine if age is your only concern.

Love this solution, thanks for the laugh

I didn’t even know we had communities for this. I’ll remember next time I walk past graffiti, there’s some interesting ones where I live but no, I don’t have a collection of photos.

The way to get more activity is to just post. You just happened to speak up, but in all likelihood more people saw there wasn’t much activity and completely forgot about it. Lemmy is relatively small, so it makes sense that niche communities don’t get as many posts.

Oh sick I didn’t know it had the Shivering Isles. It used to be my favorite, I think out of TES it’s my favorite environment setting so far.

I’m far from being a firefighter and I’ve never encountered a decomposing human body. I just want to point out that the smell of pork most humans like, is the smell of certain pork parts only and under controlled temperatures.

In other words, if you were to throw a pork whole into a fire, the smell would be different from that of ribs on a bbq. You would be burning its fur, skin, internal organs, blood and excrement along with the muscle and fat, and I mean burning, not cooking, which also makes a difference.

There isn’t a steel supply tap to every house is it? I don’t think I’ve had to replace or buy any steel pieces over the last two months or so. Different story with water.

You have some really good answers. Just remember,

INSECT REPELLENT.

That’s what you need. People tend to forget about ticks, mosquitoes, horseflies and whatnot. And if you’re in Australia, add leeches to the list. They can be vicious and ruin your experience if you go unprepared.

I’m going to guess it’s from the movie Apocalypto, but I might be wrong.

Job offers

Not that I’ve seen any in ages

Otherwise… Mmm cats. Cats are good

That’s a good idea if it’s an option

I am also a hater of unnecessarily bright lights. In your shoes, presuming I’m happy with the product otherwise, I would paint over it with a bit of nail polish.

You can get polish in any color you want these days, and it’s very cheap. It dries fast and it comes with a very small brush. You can apply one coat, see if the led still shines through too much, apply another coat 15mins later once the first layer is dry. Repeat.

Edit: seeing the photo I realize the shape it has. Be careful with the polish if you use it, one coat or two probably will be okay on the inner surface but don’t add more or the button may get stuck. Also wait extra before even daring to test button functionality, you don’t want the button scraping off semi dry polish.

Everyone here saying “undersalt, undersalt” like salt is the only additive that can go wrong in excess. Pretty much any spice is, too, so don’t go crazy on any of them especially pepper, chili, anything “hot”.

Considering all the replies you’ve had until now from different users, asking this almost feels like sealioning.
