From my therapist: In the absence of a crystal ball the best predictor of someone's future behavior is their past behavior.

I'm amused there's a GMC model called the "Terrain", not all terrain or off road or anything, just "this vehicle drives on surfaces"

Now...is this legal to show in public or not?

This is just to avoid becoming the dumping ground for previous gen tech.

It really depends on what I'm doing to elicit the comment - I'm often doing silly things, getting enthusiastic about stuff, exploring my environment and other things vaguely "childish" and so would consider cute to be a compliment.

Coming with no context it's neutral, way better than being called sexy but generally my appearance doesnt need comment.

If I'm upset, or being professional, or an authority than being called cute is 100% and insult.

Giant insects and way more fires! It's happened a few times in the history of our planet.

When I think of growing up female again, but in the current time, it sounds terrible, but then I think of growing up male inbhe current times and it seems awful too, so I think I have to tick the "neither box" and accept I'm too old for this modern shit in any gender form.

1. Friends girlfriend lent me her hiking shoes when I picked him up to go hiking having forgotten mine.

2. Payment was down at a hardware store and the manager just let me walk out with the $7 of screws I needed to finish my project that day

Yes, a line graph showing residents vs visitors by month would tell a much more meaningful story.

But does he copy?

In Canada your landlord is required to pay back your deposit with interest, so if you gave them a $1000 deposit and stayed for 10 years and interest is at 5% they would be giving you back about $1600.

Very few actually do this and most of the time interest is so low nobody bothers to fight for it.

If you are in Canada or the US I can't recommend the Libby app highly enough - books, audiobooks and magazines borrowed to your devices from your local Library. Looking at the last 5 years of borrowing it has saved me (pirating probably) thousands of dollars of audiobooks, and having an endless supply of audiobooks with zero cost really encourages reading.

(back before the days of smartphones & internet everywhere)

I once was sick in a foreign country and bought some chewable vitamin C that turned out to be those fizzing tabs you put in water - cue foaming at the mouth and utter confusion.

Happy it was still edible, just not in the way I tried to consume it.

Putting the shopping list in store-order before I go into the store; saves so much time and fuss in the store and makes me feel like a hyper-efficient grocery god.

I think people's looks and personality correspond in a few different ways.

One is that people's choices for style and personal care reflect their personality, so having fancy clothes indicate a person who cares enough about looks to put in the effort.

People also can choose to associate themselves visually with different groups, and if they identify with that group they likely have similar values, including those around personality.

Even things someone can't control, such as height, probably affect their personality because it changes the way others interact with them in society.

Yes! I am an assistive technology specialist - helping people with all kinds of disabilities access computers - and I have a laundry list of little challenges I haven't found the right tool for.

An example to start is needing something kind of like the windows on screen keyboard but that selects letters/keys using arrows and space/enter (a lot like typing using a remote).

The osk has some special feature to not steal focus from where you're typing, but this could instead let you do all your typing and then when you select done run a sendkeys to type in the text (could have clipboard option but this doesn't work everywhere). This also makes correcting errors easier. Bonus if it works with text prediction same as the osk :)

I work for a company that specializes in ergonomic work setups and the OTs recommend Ergocentric chairs at least 90% of the time.

They're expensive, but if you are having health issues due to sitting then your employer has a "duty to accommodate" to get you a better setup.

We also often recommend sit-stand desks because too comfy of a chair can just cause different problems from lack of movement.

It's okay to be curious about the world - wanting to understand is not the same thing as wanting to judge or prevent.

You can 3D print containers that fit all kind of juice/pop/milk lids. They can be any height, but my favorite are the ones that nest almost perfectly inside giving you one bottlecap worth of storage (perfect for pills or sim/sd cards).

I've had my printer for 6 months and still get a kick out of this.

The first wedding I ever attended was my own...and I was 35. I somehow had friends & family who didn't get or were already married my entire life.

Still never been to a birth or a funeral.
