What?

I had a similar thought recently when I moved into a new appartement. The main Doors are automated, so you only need to push a button to open them from the inside. From the outside you use your keycard. To make the door stay open you need to press a button at the top of the door, it has three “states”: auto, manual, stay open (labeled 0, 1 and 2). Incorrect use of the doors breaks them, you can still open them manually but its very heavy compared to a old school normal door. When the doors breaks a Repair man needs to go out and… Do something.

Alot of people in the house are annoyed about this and complaints that people are “using the doors incorrectly” and hearing this set me off. IT’S A DOOR!! You should not need to think even a second about “how it works”. We that lives there can of course get used to this (even if its a bit annoying) but what about our guests, delivery people etc. How are they supposed to know about this? Is it up to me to inform them? Is that reasonable just in the slightest? Its simply a crappy product.

To real, am boomer-ish and I dont know why but there’s like an itch within and I fucking can not not do that shit. Im broken for sure 😢

I’ve used Windows all my life (40 now) but the changes made in the last 10 or so years (since win 7 and forward have left me in a place where i feel Im super confused about even the freaking folder structure. Its partly on me becouse I havent kept up, but also, I havent asked for any of the shit they have done “recently”. I switched to Kubuntu about a year ago and nothing has been easier. Anyway, My recomendation would be a any linux distro, havent tried mint but from what people are saying it’s stable and easy so probably that one, but mostly because my feeling is that most Linux based OSs dont change stuff just for the sake of changing (someone will probably let med know the exceptions to this rule). But really, I think that the normal user dont want but to re-learn how to do something they allready knew how to do in an earlier version if there isnt a very good reason for it.

Det är verkligen flera, men den mest oväntade är nog en ganska kort monolog som jag såg i Norrtälje kyrka omkring 2001-2002. Minns inte vem skådespelaren var eller vilka som jobbat med den, men handlingen var iaf att Judas höll ett anförande och förklarade/motiverade varför han svek Jesus. Pjäsen inleddes med att den som framförde monologen sjöng Svarta tupp vilket blev rätt mäktigt i en kyrka. Någon gång under föreställningen tog han också upp en kniv och högg i en kyrkbönk (nåja, på ett träblock som var utplacerat…). Jag var rätt ung när jag såg den (14-15) och hade inte sett så mycket teater då så det kan ha påverkat intrycket, särskilt det där med kniven (:D) men minns det som att han som framförde monologen var väldigt bra (och duktig sångare) och bar med mig intryck från föreställningen i många dagar efteråt. Eller ja, bär fortfarande med mig uppenbarligen…

Ok then, skip Happiness for now, can you come up with anything that would feel meaningful? I do think you could benefit from therapy either way and/or anti-depreccent. There is no shame in needing a little help in your life. I’ve Been on anti-depreccent about 10-yeara and just recently stopped. It really helped me through a couple of difficult years, that and just talking to someone has made a huge difference. All love.

I truly do care and feel for all Americans right now. What any one individual can do IS limited and we need to acknowledge that. Of course, throughout the course of history there has been “heros” but most of us aren’t and demanding that all Americans that does see the madness should “do something about it” is really not helping. I mean, i hope that some of you (us based people) will, but being in you position… I dont know, i hope I’d had the courage, but man… I dont know. Also, what tf do i do? My great “contribution” is trying to boycot American products… Bigwoop me.

Hmm, ok. Didnt know that and Im a little bit less conflicted now.

Im Kinda with you on this. Or no, Im not, but this is one of those where i get conflicted and cant help but feel a little bit satisfied about asholes being punished. For me it’s the same as when I hear about someone assulting a rapist. Im morally against the “taking the law into your own hands” but still…

Super conflicted about this one. For sure, im against their (mis)use of user data and that is bad in all sorts of ways. buuuuut, i cant help but smile a bit about the fact that asholes driving like maniacs are getting some sort of punishment. I’ve met them and i wish them hell.

Here is my most recent script, not gonna lie, pretty proud of this bad boy. /s
