Phone: great for mindlessly scrolling or the odd comment.
Laptop: for actually getting anything done.
I’d use a desktop but sometimes I have to work from cafes or something so I prefer just using a laptop all the time rather than two machines

Me too. And I live in NZ where there’s bloody beaches everywhere. Can’t move for beaches
I like to hold the banana upright facing away from me, and then I sneak up behind it and use a really sharp knife to sever the jugular part way through before I rip its head backward, peeling the skin all the way down its spine.
It’s immensely satisfying, especially the crisp clear sound the knife makes as it cuts off the life force
I don’t have space for a desktop computer - and I have a standalone house, it’s not like I’m in some tiny apartment, so I’m guessing this isn’t too unusual? I pull out the laptop when I want to play games.
It helps that I don’t play AAA games and a decent spec laptop plays what I want just fine
I have two. Early career I found the second one absolutely improved my productivity - perhaps by 50% or more - as it helped me multitask really effectively.
Now, later in my career I have had kids for a while. My multitasking went out the window when I had kids - I find it hard to juggle more than one or maybe two things I’m working on at a time. I suspect this was due to poor sleep - parents never seem to really catch up to sleeping full nights like before kids. Instead of multitasking on lots of small things I transitioned to more in-depth work where I can focus for longer periods on a single thing.
Now, I think having a second monitor is still useful but I can function fine without it. It’s maybe a 10% boost if that.
Money Heist (but in Spanish, the english dub is awful)
Third time. Such a great show
On MacOS this will do it:
printf 'net.inet.ip.ttl=65\nnet.inet6.ip6.hlim=65\n' | sudo tee /etc/sysctl.conf
Can’t personally speak for other OSes at present. Here’s a SO post about Ubuntu: https://askubuntu.com/a/670276
You can also just increase your laptop’s initial TTL by one and then they can’t tell.
I had to google all the nouns in this post.
What else would you call an analog clock?
I’m 38 and still take 10s to read an analog clock.
I do still say half past etc though. I don’t really associate them with digital vs analog
Odometer readings
I’m a nerd. I know vaguely what RCS is because I had a discussion in 2019 with a friend about it. Do I have it? Do I use it? I have no idea. Is it an app or just a protocol that happens behind the scenes? I would assume the latter. My phone’s a few years old, isn’t everyone’s? Probably that means I don’t have it. No way to tell and I’m not going to bother trying to find out.
I’m so much more technical than most people btw
Yeah I really enjoyed WC2, it was epic and WC3 was a real disappointment to be honest. I still play WC2 every so often though
If you ever have to cut a bit of wood to act as a diagonal brace it’s pretty useful to whip out the old tan. So I’ve used this every time I built a gate.
That’s four times in the last decade, so not exactly daily but I’m glad I knew how to do it or my gates would have sucked.
What other authors have high clever-remark ratings, in your experience? Because I find myself near the end of the Discworld series and want to continue with something similarly engaging. Basically, the opposite of what you requested :)
Yeah sounds awesome to me too tbh. My mood brightens whenever I see snow and I don’t find that low sunlight levels affect me at all.
However apparently between 1-10% of people are affected by seaonal affective disorder so those people may want to avoid Finland during the winter months
