How did you stop smoking? What was your motivation, and how did you finally do it?

I wanted to quit but couldn't. I read Allan carrs quit smoking book and how they described what the nicotine does did it for me.

It helped finally understanding how the addiction works, and how I was constantly just trying to get to a normal baseline of living that non smokers just lived at normally.

Ive tried vaping, gum, lozenges, cold Turkey, everything. Almost a year free from nicotine now, no regrets, not missing a damn thing.

What do I replace Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000 with? Used for last decade. Don't even know where to start. thanks

Sorry, first ever post to kbin. I'd like to replace my Microsoft Natural Ergonomic Keyboard 4000. I've used this keyboard for like 15 years, buying a new one every few years or so.

Can anyone recommend something to start with? I am so overwhelmed by ergo-mechs. My reason is my hands hurt, and it seems like y'all have found a better keyboard. Thank you so much, apologies again, this is my first post so obvs I don't know what I'm doing.

Bitwarden or Proton Pass

Reply in thread

Nah, still a great solution if you like. That was my solution for years until just about a month ago I switched to bitwarden because it seemed easier to protect with a yubikey. I've liked it so far.

I took the opportunity to export all my passwords from Firefox, chrome, and KeePass, then spent about a day cleaning the whole mess up and removing duplicates, THEN imported the csv into bitwarden. Still getting used to not using chrome/Firefox for auto filling and storing passwords, but I like that my passwords don't feel so spread out across multiple browsers/dbs.

I've decided to pick up trash picking as a hobby

Good for you bud. That's awesome. I got one of those claw things with a handle that way I don't have to touch the trash or bend down every time, works great. Got it from Walgreens for like ten bucks.

Put on some headphones, put on a podcast, and I go wander around the beach. Feels good and is actually relaxing to me.
