  • I wouldn’t call them moving in and after a while realizing they are not contributing an early signal. You know what would be? Talking about it up front and coming to an agreement. Whether it be financial or otherwise.

    And this has nothing to do with a relationship being transactional. In fact it’s the opposite because then the relationship will not be one person providing for two people and the other person providing a relationship in return.

  • If you try to solve everything you won’t solve anything. Life is just too complex.

    There aren’t only solvable or unsolvable problems. You also have to consider constraints like time, money, physical and mental health and whatever else you can think of. Which becomes a murky soup of tasks.

    Sometimes it’s just best to say “it is what it is” for your own mental health. I’m sure you’ve done it, you just haven’t thought or said those specific words. Otherwise you’d not be posting on lemmy, you’d be out there solving problems.

  • Ok, so you’ve got it all figured out huh? You earn a lot of money, are in really good shape, eat healthy self prepared food, have a good relationship with everyone around you, have everything in your home organized and tidy, have hobbies that fulfill you… and you still have enough time to post on lemmy.

    All by the power of never giving in to “it is what it is” but instead carefully dissecting and solving everything in your waking life.

    Props my man, what shall we call you? Captain Solveitall? Supersolver? Something else?

  • You can install DNS content blockers (like NextDNS) on Apple TV which will take care of a good chunk of ads and privacy violations. This also works if you install a VPN App that has those options.

    Not sure what you would install on a shield that would be much more effective. Maybe you could explain.

  • I have a second bank account with a credit card for daily spending and online purchases. It only has a certain amount of money I expect to need for the month. If I need to make bigger purchases I’ll have to transfer the funds to it first.

    Also things like Apple/Google/Amazon Pay hide CC info so you could use those instead when they are available.

  • Seriously. There is no need to be patient with moms or anyone not „understanding“ Signal. It’s the same thing as WhatsApp just with a different coat of paint when it comes to using it.

    I did exactly what you did. And lo and behold my mom is now using Signal to message me.

  • there was some stuff about his drones destroying entire solar systems for raw minerals, that just seemed plain nonsensical to me?

    Not sure what exactly seems nonsensical to you but it’s a well known concept that is also explained thoroughly in the books. You might want to read up on von Neumann probes.
