Be honest, do you still use reddit?
RIF was my app for Reddit so once that went down I've cut it like 99%. Similarly I'm there now for questions that I can only seem to find there unfortunately but not logged in since.

My experience may be an outlier but...
Formal education was great for me, promise of working with cutting edge technologies. Vast amount of opportunities working in the IT sector. I was excited and happy for starting my second career choice.
As for the job I've landed, acceptable-better pay/benefits than most, the most backwards tech to work with and managing environment. I'd like to fantasize about leaving but with the work ethic in my area I can't escape it without a drastic move.

When the fuck did a mobile hotspot become something you have to pay extra for?
Reply in thread
Not American, but funny enough from what I've seen, apparently it's a thing. For my service it's usually been assumed with no extra fees. But I bought an ESim for Europe and I did notice that while shopping around, probably 1/5 companies had mentioned something about no hotspot/tethering allowed without paying an extra fee.
Where I'm from our Teleco plans are truly shit but I guess we have that over the Americans.

Agreed I read the title as something you'd see a villain nonchalantly do in a comic book/movie series.

What are your plans for the weekend?
Perhaps start buying a MOBO with money I don't have, perhaps some drinks, hopefully some gaming. Twas not a great week work wise, just stress.

I really thought I would have more free time now that I'm off reddit

I'm hoping maybe I could get a little confidence back in commenting on things. 10 yrs or more on Reddit and it always felt like it's either a drop in an echo chamber or immediately rude responses.

Ah wow that's a great experience for your co-op! You know maybe i'm rose tinting a little bit now that you've mentioned exams haha, but yeah I'd still say it's been interesting working in the field for me to say the least.

How often do you brush your teeth?

Gotta say I feel you. I'm terrible at following through on things/routines and end up disrupting or doing multiple things at once. Funny trend from my experience though is that I remember maybe a decade ago or more the mantra was still 3 times a day. I strive for 2 times but somedays I just knock the fuck out.

Hey friends! How do YOU jazz guitar?
I've barely scratched the surface of my journey to learning Jazz but I would like to some day play at least some basic standards. Anyone got any resources? Like a lesson book/plan that'll start off with the easy stuff.

That is truly so amazing! Honestly experiences like those are so worth it, but I feel for you not being able to make it open source then. If you haven't already started on something else, I'm sure it'll be some motivation for you down the road. Sorry for delayed response, crazy ass week for me lol.

how is Lemmy going for you?
It's weird for me...I'm going through some life changes so I don't have the free time as much as I did to browse Reddit. So with that I've limited knowledge on what a fediverse is and what entails the differences. I've found an app to make it feel like RIF but I'm barely on here to truly appreciate it. It's like a false place for me still, I'm here, it's not Reddit but it's different and I sorta feel out of place.

Upgraded from S10+ to S23U
Came from a similar experience. Had the note 10+ and loved it. Did not have much motivation to upgrade to the current flagships but I finally decided to treat myself to something for once and got an upgrade. I'm pretty happy with it and no regrets, it's like a slight upgrade with some wonderful updates. Probably going to rock this for a whole again.
