  • aggressive spread and resilience to remove

    Many would argue that mint is an herb. But if you ever had your garden invaded by mint, you'll definitely classify them under weed.

    Always plant mint in a pot. And if your neighbour has mint in their garden, you better have a 2m trench filled with concrete between their garden and yours.

    I hate this timeline. Living across the Pacific, I actually know about Fetterman.

    An Australian shouldn't know the names of so many American politicians. But it's hard when y'all are trying to out-crazy each other every second day.

    I couldn't even name our current speaker of the house, yet I can identify Mike Johnson whenever his mug shows up in the news. This is truly the dumbest timeline.

  • Yes. IIRC it's based on latest LTS kernel with Google patches. So it's been "year of the Linux phone" for a while now.

    It's unfortunate that the slop they put on top of it is such a privacy nightmare. PostmarketOS is trying to change that and supports Plasma, Gnome, etc. But it's early days yet and still rough around the edges from what I've been reading.

  • I'm going to have to kindly disagree on some points about manuals.

    1. Manuals are still popular in Europe and many parts of the world, on all levels of cars.
    2. I have a friend with a cheap(ish) Suzuki Swift that comes with manual transmission and adaptive cruise. Yeah it won't change your gears, but still makes interstate trips much more comfortable.

    I myself now prefer to drive auto, after moving to a city known for its traffic jam, and I am inherently lazy. So that's one good argument from me.

    Another is that if you injure one of your foot, there's a 50% you can still drive your auto. Which was really handy that one time I dislocated my left ankle. In a manual, that chance is 0%.

  • They have been pretty good on popular technologies like python & web development.

    I tried to do Kotlin for Android, and they kept tripping over themselves; it's hilarious and frustrating at the same time.

  • The chronic pain relief by itself was enough to keep me motivated. Asthma, joint pains (hypermobility sucks!), etc are now down to manageable levels – if not completely gone.

    And yeah, I don't enjoy it and sometimes look for excuses to slack off. And right on cue, my knee pain starts flaring up after a couple weeks. Followed by the rest of the body.
