I also like the wide range of sources to pull down content and have it available vs sometimes having to wrestle with a streaming site in the moment.

Podcasts and audiobooks are great for keeping the mind amused while doing representative tasks.

Can't. I'm too busy planning projects that I will either start now or do later.

It's fine. Just always be present. 100% of the time. Always be aware of what you are doing, what you need to do, and what you are doing next. Don't forget to be thinking about what is happening today. Also, keep in mind what is happening next week.

Pretty sure I forgot to take my stomach pill today. The same pill I take every morning, for about 7 years.

Oops.

I'm having a ton of fun with Mint. I'm finding it tight, full of relevant software, and quite configurable.

The Enterprise SKU I don't believe has that added.

We have to rely on the prep version mostly, which has the shenanigans. Fortunately, you can turn those things off after the fact.

What we are fighting with now is trying to deploy an image without the advertised apps, but since they are provided by the CDN, which cannot be disabled (yet).

The idea is pretty ironic. If one was patient enough, they could design a CAD machine that would write out their prints. I believe I had seen them before. The problems with that machine are speed and efficiency.

I can't see it being healthy for us in the long term.

Meta will only make decisions to increase profits. They have demonstrated this time and again be taking advantage of elections, the pandemic, and poor leadership to spread hate and misunderstood - this drives user engagement.

Meta cannot stand to have this content where they cannot get to it easily. They feel they they must have this content in order to show growth.

Their only obligation is to provide growth to their shareholders. This means that they do not need to play fair. They will want to control the platform. As femboy link pointed out, this did not go well for XMPP working with Google and Microsoft did not play well with Open Office.

The end game for this offer is that there is only a Metaverse where Meta-approved conversations happen. I would sooner create an OSS Facebook alternative where you federate with those you wish than allow Meta into our domain.

The real cost of an inkjet is that one needs to buy ink regardless of whether they print. It tends to dry out over a few months. If you don't happen to use all the 100-200 pages, the money is wasted.

In the past, just because the printer was on sale, I have been able to buy a cheap printer for less than new ink.

I bought a brother a couple of years ago for just under $200. That was the cost of 4 sets of ink. I have replaced the toner a couple of times at $17 each. Each replacement has lasted me a few thousand pages.

This was a replacement to a pair of brother printers of the same model I obtained via yard sale for a total cost of $10. These yard sale printers would have lasted longer if not for small children and dogs.

I have probably printed 6k pages for the cost of $180 over the course of several years. Most of the printing has been school work for kids and forms in general.

I was interested in the beginning, but after the initial hype it just seemed to be a lot of people running scams. I'm sad I didn't gather a bunch early on, but I only would have sold it in/by 2020. I didn't have any use for it but to hold it until it was profitable to sell.
