It sounds like an interesting project, actually. So, no, I don’t think you are.

I would probably tell myself not to bother with college and suggest I go to a technical school instead. Apparently degrees aren’t worth jack shit around here.

“Please stop asking me if everything’s OK. Everything is fine and your concern is appreciated, but I prefer to work in silence and I’m not getting any right now.”

I’m not good around kids, so I made a decision to be without children pretty early on. So, to answer your question, I guess it feels… normal? It’s hard to describe in more detail, because I don’t have a reference to compare it to.

That said, I’ve seen what kind of struggles - emotional, financial or otherwise - my kid-having friends and family have been going through and I would be a liar if I said I never thought “I’m glad I don’t have to go through this shit” more than on one occasion.

Android: no clue, F-Droid started updating my apps automatically after an OS update, which is nice. My phone isn’t rooted either. Linux: About once a week.

In addition to the above, they also use green energy, if you care about that sort of thing.

GRIP Combat Racing. It’s one of those racing games where you have to restart a lot, because recovering from a mistake isn’t really an option, but it’s still super fun.

Yes, I am and before you ask: no, I will not help you fix your grandma’s PC.

lol, that is so unnecessary.

I haven’t read a whole lot, but so far: Madame Bovary. We had to read it in high school, because it was culturally significant and because it caused a large amount of controversy when it came out due to its subject matter. When I was reading it though, it felt like I was reading a literary version of every TV soap opera ever. It was a slog to get through and I was bored and annoyed throughout.

Hm, didn’t know about that. By the way, what is the word that is showing up as removed?

Seriously. Didn’t they make billions last year? That number should be much, much higher for Zuck & Co. to actually start giving a fuck.

I’m sure it’s a very capable email client, but the UI just didn’t mesh well with me.

Not really sure. Somebody wire me an obscene amount of money and I’ll report back. Probably.

What’s wrong with Newpipe?

And mine. And probably everyone else’s since the only banking app I can find on F-Droid is something called Varengold.

To be clear, XMPP is the name of the protocol, not the app. If an XMPP app with a Discord-like UI is what you’re after, then Converse.js is probably your best bet. Here’s what it looks like.

How about a pet rock?

Ah, enough said. Thanks.

I’m out of the loop. What did HF do to make you not take them seriously?
