Win 10 was definitely an improvement over 8. I’d even argue that 10 as it started out was the best since xp. Of course now 10 has been fully enshitified but it used to be good.

Instead of Josh Richmond my semiawake brain initially saw Richard Stallman and I was very confused for a moment.

There is a med called Welbutrin which can be prescribed for quitting smoking and it works really well. It’s also prescribed as an antidepressant so one of my smoker friends was on it for that reason and they almost completely quit smoking without even trying to. Of course, it is not without It’s sideeffects but among antidepressants it is one of the usually best tolerated ones. I’m on it for my depression now and the only issue I have is that it can make me really anxious, but I’m also on nearly the maximum dose where for smoking cessation you wouldn’t be taking anything close to that amount.

Bed bugs. Easily.

Oh, cool! When you said parasitic wasp my brain immediately pictured a tarantula hawk wasp.

Gonna be honest chief, I would sooner burn my house down than live with wasps.

But thinking about it, I’m willing to bet that house centipedes would clear them up too. Those voracious little buggers eat everything.

Wait, caffeine actually keeps you all awake? It usually just makes me more tired. I only drink it to keep the withdrawls at bay.

Grain moth larva. Good luck. The damn things are a pain to get rid of once you have them. You’ll want to pitch any food that isn’t 100% air tight sealed (bags or boxes of cereal, rice, flour, sugar, noodles, etc.) and then clean out any cabinets really well to make sure you get rid of as many eggs as possible. After that make sure you don’t leave any food unsealed for the next few months because odds are they will keep popping back up ocasionally for a bit and if they can get into anything when they do then the infestation starts all over. As far as infestations go they aren’t the worst to deal with but they are anoying.

Yes they have an IG but I doubt the birthdate they gave is their real one.

It’s me except I’m just bad at being a person.

Ideally, you should be using nonoxygenated gas for your mower, in which case stabilizer is unnecessary. The ethanol is what gums up carbs.

Someone who covers their drink when you enter the room.

Shit clickbait journalism identified.

If you’re just getting rid of a body you don’t need a new one. You don’t care about contamination in that case. You can get those barrels used for dirt cheap. If you know where a boat landing is then you may even be able to steal one from underneath a dock for free and without leaving any paper trail.

My city actually has surprisingly decent cops. They regularly train with the county social workers for conflict de-escalation and dealing with neurodivergent individuals. So I’m normally not too hesitant to call them. I’ve had to call them for various instances minor and otherwise and they have always conducted themselves very well. However if you go one town over the cops are known for being maladjusted shitbags that will use every opportunity they have to exert their power over someone. So if I’m in their jusrisdiction then I will never call the cops unless it is literally life or death. So it really depends on where I am.

A company I used to work for outsourced most of their coding to a company in India. I say most because when the code came back the internal teams anways had to put a bunch of work in to fix it and integrate it with existing systems. I imagine that, if anything, LLMs will just take the place of that overseas coding farm. The code they spit out will still need to be fixed and modified so it works with your existing systems and that work is going to require programmers.

Btw, never tell psychologists you take drugs, when it is not relevant.

That is awful advice. Your doctor and psych should always know everything you are taking perscribed or otherwise. They literally can’t rat you out and they need that information so they can predict any potential drug interactions. There are also conditions like bipolar and schizophrenia which can be strongly effected by certain drugs and your doc/psych can advise you on that and how to most safely use your substance of choice.

If they are treating you different or giving you worse care because you use drugs then you need to see someone else. The vast majority of medical professionals subscribe to the school of harm reduction if yours don’t then they’re just shit.

Conspicously leaving random packages around town is how you get the bomb squad called and you wind up in an interogation room.

Wait, selective service wasn’t automated? When I turned 18 my card just showed up in the mail. I didn’t have to do anything to get it.
