It’s busy but it looks similar to how I’ve been wanting to set up my home screen for ages. I have the standard grid right now but I took a look at some widgets and I’m having a vision of a brighter future lol. Redoing my home screen will be my self-care activity this weekend haha

I feel like there are kinder ways to express your opinion than to say “ew” about something someone made for themselves…

I’m not great with math so please let me know if I’m understanding this right:

1. Company has 100 employees
2. All 100 employees quit
3. Company gets 100 new employees as replacement

= 100% turnover rate

Then…

4. Company has the 100 new employees
5. 50 of the new employees quit
6. Company gets 50 new employees as replacement

= 150% turnover rate

and so on?

how can you have a turnover rate over 100%?

One time I shared an Airbnb to try to cut costs on a trip. I got there around 4pm and hated it so much that by noon the next day I had already booked a hotel.

I just do king suites now since they’re about the same price as a double but include free breakfast, a kitchenette, extra pullout couch, etc. Cheaper than an Airbnb with the same (or more) amenities.

Sort of tangentially related to this… Today I was telling my mom about something I bought and I mentioned the brand + a general description of the item. About an hour later, she showed me a screenshot of her Facebook feed with an ad for the exact brand and item even though she didn’t google it, etc. Makes me so uncomfortable. I’d feel a lot better if I knew specifically how they were getting the data so I could try to block it.

All good!

Perhaps that’s why they said

Zoomers overall

Also not sure what’s so inconsiderate about their comment. I feel like it’s pretty widely accepted that zoomers generally don’t have the same tech problem-solving skills that many gen x/y people do. No one’s claiming they’re dumb. It’s a byproduct of growing up with tech that has been designed for simplicity and ease of use.

i don’t know anything about linux tbh but i want yall to know i get the same weird enjoyment out of these that i did with trebuchetmemes and prequelmemes. like even if i don’t know what yall are talking about sometimes, i still feel your vibe

I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the number of people who are continuing to stick with it + be supportive. I didn’t expect anything beyond the planned end of the blackout, although I didn’t expect thousands of subreddits to participate in that either. Either way I’ve basically cut Reddit out entirely. I used to scroll 2-3hrs a day and I’m down to maybe 10 minutes once or twice a week when I’m trying to find an answer to something. Attempting to fill my newfound free time has been… fun
