I have a filtered water bottle that I keep full. I just keep it handy. If I’m thirsty, it’s less hassle to take a drink from my bottle than to go to the kitchen/break room/café and get a different drink. When it’s empty, I’ll let myself grab a different drink IF I fill the bottle up too.

Growing up, I was a Sesame girl. Best pre-school education I could’ve had. <3

The only way to be creative is to create. You simply cannot do that if you have an idiot box ghostwrite for you.

You will start out writing bad stories. That’s not only OK, it’s a vital part of the learning process. So, write bad stories, joyfully! Then ones that aren’t quite so bad!

sometimes?! Cargo never makes sense to me!

…who’s cleaning the grill before it’s dried out?

Especially if you live in a desert, unless you like sand-flavoured steaks!

After every use, as quickly as possible after cleaning, to protect it from the elements.

If they couldn’t be bothered to write it, I see no reason I should be bothered to read it.

Yes. That’s literally what I said.

I don’t even know what a MCP server is and I feel like I’ve somewhat dodged a bullet there. Ignorance is bliss. :)

AI;DR

Every computer has a built-in “exit vim” button, conveniently located on the chassis, usually next to the power cord. Flick it to 0, then back to 1, and you’ll find vim has been successfully exited. :)

I think it’s a smidge more than liking, it’s more “claiming” or some such.

Me no word good on Wemsday.

Thank you anyway! I’d rather be told something twice than not told it at all! :)

!solved Thanks!

Another thing to consider: learning a trade.

I don’t know what the trades are like in the USA but here in the UK, once you have a tradesperson you like and who does an above-average job, you go back to that same person until they retire.

It could be anything people need. Electrics or plumbing are high-skill trades and really well paid. Cleaning is a good low-skill trade, it’s hard work but it’s a job for life. Buy some tools, get good at it. Start with windows, they’re easy and basically everyone needs it, and all you need is a squeegee, a clean towel, and a bucket. Get a dedicated business phone number and email address. Print up some flyers with fixed prices (find out what other local businesses are charging and undercut them slightly until you get on your feet) and your business phone number on, and distribute them as far as your legs will carry you.

Maybe confirmation bias plays at least some part here? If you’re exposed online to YouPotatoes who extensively use drones, you’re likely to think they’re more common than they actually are?
