    • lights on everything
    • diagonal house, what are you even doing?
    • Increased phone power matched by increased surveillance and advertising
    • hats not having an extra space to remove sweat and warm sticky air. Bring back lifted asian conical hats!
    • App and website having different functionality, and you have to use the app
  • 1 km is about 15 minutes walk.

    1 meter is about a step.

    1 cm is about the thickness of a gusset on medium sized industrial machinery

    1 kg is about 2 pints (or a little more than a quart)

    20°C is comfortable for most people, 35+ is uncomfortably warm

  • I'm old enough to remember when using computers daily went from a dorky interest to something the cool kids were doing (MySpace etc). Obviously, how the two groups approached computers was quite different. Even how they approached social spaces on the internet.

    Idk, haven't thought about it much but I remember being pretty depleted about being interested back then. The things I was learning with basic coding and stuff could now be done in a couple of clicks, the resources were now more scarce, and the space became filled with money-people interested in promoting their brand

  • I dissociate and fawn pretty much constantly in most social situations. I do not feel in control. What most people know me as is a bunch of trauma responses. I feel like I'm watching myself have conversations and making "decisions" from another room.

    It took me a long time to admit this to myself.

  • I'd say I was around that age. Maybe earlier, 10? But only because my dad was into linux. This was back in 1998 to 2000 though. I wasn't actually allowed access to a computer's hardware (and therefore the ability to install an OS, given my extremely restricted access) until I started uni with an old computer that didn't even have onboard sound.

  • My local has a list of state subsidised courses that are "in demand", so presumably they have a high chance of a job and passable pay.

    Commercial drone flying has been on that before. The most common ones seem to be carpentry, residential construction, and aged care for my area.

    (obviously, check your local to see if a particular course has some sort of "workers needed now!" sign)

  • My first thought, having lived in an area with trees but inadequate funding for clearing leaves, is that every sidewall just gets buried and slick with wet leaves.

    Idk what the labour costs are for these things.
