    I've been doing it for about two years now and I think it's pretty incredible. Consistently having a third day off can do wonders; commute only 4 times a week, your third day off is a weekday so basically always have a great day to go shopping, appointments, etc while everyone else is at work. I don't think I could ever go back to 5 8's. The only thing better would be 4 8's

    "All trainees are reminded: drink 1/2 to 3/4 canteen per hour, not to exceed 12 canteens per day. You will drink 3 non-caffeinated, non carbonated beverages with each and every meal."

    Is what was recited daily when I was in basic training. And yeah, heat stroke is a big issue. I don't think you can blame the instructors really; everyone knows someone that says water tastes bad or whatever. All the instructors know is that everyone better be drinking their water.

    Thanks for your service soldier. I wanted to retire too, but at 8 years my bop code expired and I got a nice little email congratulating me on becoming an mtl at Sheppard. I bop'd out of Texas and there was no way they were getting me to go back. It sucks because I did really like the air Force but the transition from e4 mafia to nco blew lol. No longer do your job and instead I was pushing paper and disciplining troops for ditching pt. And then do only that for 3 years for high schools kids in middle of nowhere Texas? 😂 Denied the retraining, cert'd up my last year, then got a job doing my same job with less work and for way more pay. The air Force classic lol.

    Always glad to hear a good retirement story though. Most of the people I knew who retired were jaded as hell by the end of it. Hopefully the air Force didn't break your body too bad though... Have a cold one for me! Air power!

    I've had the z fold 3, 4, 5 and pixel fold, right there with you. I mostly hear the complaints about people thinking folding phones are dumb from sites where people are more likely to have serious opinions on what phone you should buy, like here and reddit. To be honest everytime someone sees my phone for the first time they're super interested in it and could see themselves buying one; the real issue is the price. As soon as I mention that it's probably 3x the price of their current phone, that's the end of that lol. Hopefully they can get the price down to regular slab phones. Once they do I think they'll start to seriously compete because I think this form factor is incredible.

    It was cool in 2010 when I was like 14 and had an iPod touch but didn't have wireless Internet access at home because my parents didn't understand the concept of a router and thought they would have to pay for it, plus christian concern over porn and corruption on the net. So I could go to like McDonalds or whatever, download all of these game review articles, web novels, and whatever else I was into at the time so that when I got back home I could still interact with the web.

    Nowadays, yeah I don't really get the point. Everyone's permanently plugged in so a regular bookmark is fine. Also in case anyone was concerned, my buddy eventually gave me his old router and I secretly set up WiFi in my house so I was good for the rest of the time I lived at home 👍

    I use it because I follow a lot of Japanese artists and mangakas. It's nice because ya know Twitter is English so getting around is pretty easy. Stuff like pixiv seemed intimidating because it's made for a Japanese audience, even if they have English stuff. Plus I just know how to use Twitter after making my account in 2009.

    I was for it for the first 100 clones. Now it's in the same vein as 2d pixel shooter rougelikes, way too saturated. I never give these a second look because there's just so many uninspired clones.

    I think most of the time when Christianity is depicted Jesus is used, since that's their distinguishing factor. Islam, Judaism, and Christianity all have the same god capital g.

    Why am I forced to listen to the owner of a company ramble off selling points of his product if I don't want to? If I say fuck Nintendo they're a shit company do I have to listen to Gary Bowser list off every Nintendo game that sold over a million copies?

    The person who posted the thread did so on mastodon, to their 1200 followers, who maybe half of them even saw it and then another half of that even engaged with it. That is not going to materially impact anyone.

    I like fastmail. I decided to skip on proton (I also just never tried it) because it just seemed too popular. Fastmail also tied into my password manager and is easy to create masked emails. I like them a lot.

    That's just like your opinion man, I'm having a blast. The performance issues suck but I can live with it since it's only in the city where I'm just talking to NPCs. Everything else is fun as hell
