Yeah I did a free trial, tore through the 100 free searches in like a week so I’d need over 300 to get through a month, and I refuse to pay $25/month.

I really liked it while it lasted but I don’t $25/month like it.

I can believe it. My apartment is wired dumb as shit, basically the entire place except appliances and the bathrooms is one circuit. Found THAT out when I tried to plug in an iron when the AC was on.

Nah. Grew up with a gas oven, have only had electric since leaving my parents’ house, stuff tastes the same. TBH most people prefer electric ovens because they heat more evenly.

I got a smartwatch early in the pandemic because time stopped having any meaning and I started missing meetings all the time because I’d go do something not at my desk and then forget I had a meeting until I was super late. Also I had to set up reminders to do normal shit (eat lunch, walk dog, feed dog) because otherwise I’d forget. I tried doing it with reminders on my phone but then I’d set my phone down five feet away and forget.

Basically I have a smartwatch because my brain is broken and I need an electronic device strapped to me to nag me to behave like a human being. :(

I love wireless headphones because I’m the specific flavor of clumsy that was catching my headphone cable on drawer pulls and doorknobs like 3x a week. I still have good wired headphones I use for serious music listening, but for most day to day stuff I went wireless and they honestly have lasted longer than a lot of my wired earbuds because I am such a shambling disaster.

I know people who worked on Bixby and the one thing they have in common is they all hate Bixby and think it’s garbage.

Tiktok because Twitter already made me spend all my time raging out at random annoying assholes until I finally quit it and apparently tiktok is just that but with a more effective algorithm.

Also “ragebait but video” is like the last thing I need.

KFC: Kitten’s freakin’ cute

I love USB-C in a lot of ways but I also have two different projects that are sitting and waiting for me to solder in the USB C connectors, because JESUS H CHRIST. Those things were not built to be attached by human hands.

Also, like, adult humans don’t do so good if they only get to sleep for an hour or two at a time. I don’t have kids but I have a puppy and my mental health improved 10x when he stopped waking up every night because he needed to pee. Just going from two 4-hour blocks of sleep to one 8-hour block.

Then he hit puppy adolescence and had a massive sleep regression and I was getting an hour or two of sleep at a time between SCREAMING PUPPY INTERLUDES and promptly lost my fucking mind. I gave up on crating him because I needed the sleep.
