I’m a certified forklift trainer and the training I needed for that was a single day that ended in a simple test…

Yep! I have a Cosori kettle that’s been working great (and outlasted my first two pots lol)

Steel tea pot - I drink a pot every day but last couple pots were both glass and only last a couple months before breaking (both my fault) so upgraded to steel and so far my clumsiness hasn’t yet managed to break it

I drink a pot of camomile every day. 1st cup is still hot while rest is more lukewarm.

I’ve ran GNOME for years until this month. Something randomly broke and then on fresh install the dark theme wasn’t working correctly. Switched to KDE and everything looks and works perfectly. Think I’ll hang out here for the foreseeable future.

I work at a computer and find it easier to continue using a screen for reading

However I do also purchase some paper books for when wanting to disconnect for a while

Thank you; looks like it turned out pretty good!

I was!

Finally made it over to the in-laws to replace a ceiling fan that had stopped working

Which genre?

Sounds cool; pictures please!

Family loves Kingdomino; yours turned out great!

Kiddos love Minetest; we’ve changed out mods a few times now to experience new combinations including some minor customizations to tweak difficulty a bit

My board game prototypes! Can always use more playtesters :)

Shortly after turning 18 I was offered a commission job selling Kirby vacuum cleaners with a fairly large guaranteed weekly pay. I product was high quality and the people interviewing were calm, well mannered and assured that we would absolutely not be using any pressure tactics for the sales.

Day 1 we’re taught about how to demo the machine and get to tag along for a couple scheduled sales

Day 2 we’re taught how to pressure entry into a home for door to door sales demos…

Day 7-ish a friend of the boss joins the group who is super high pressure and boss gets excited to immediately move that direction

After 2 weeks it was clear that this was exactly the opposite of what I’d signed up for (including the lack of guaranteed pay) so I left in search of something better.

LTE modem averaging 20/10

Came to recommend Synology; I’ve worked on small systems (4 cameras) and large (30+ cameras). For home use you can probably get away with their smallest NAS which includes free CCTV software (Surveillance Station) which itself includes 2 camera licenses. Adding more cameras beyond those will require a one-time license purchase. While this is not the cheapest route they are easy to setup, manage and use.

ProtonVPN works great via Wiregurd on Linux as well just not through the GUI; you can download the configs and connect through terminal or other Wireguard client
