Ah yeah totally fair. To each their own.
I did live in a city centre once a long time ago but I’d definitely be keeping the earplugs in all night if I were you now!

Yeah fair enough. I’m not using them in a work environment. I’m happy if I get an extra 20 minutes of sleep in the morning when all the noise from the teenage grooming starts. Sometimes it’s 40.
It sounds ridiculous but it all adds up.
I grew up in the arse end of nowhere so any noise at all wakes me.
Those foam ones are really irritating after a while. Your local chemist may sell “mouldable silicone” ones that are cheap, better at sound isolation and way more comfortable. You basically just mash them into your ear and they form a perfect seal.
I use them every night.
You can buy unflavoured whey concentrate or isolate in bulk for very cheap. I used to use it to make protein pancakes for breakfast all the time.
Nom nom nom.
Edit: I see you’re vegan. Not sure I’ve seen unflavoured vegan ones.
Mulholland Drive.
It’s an analogue of the same subreddit which was spawned on reddit after “momforaminute” became very popular over there. I used to contribute on the dad one on reddit and I’m just a contributor making folks aware of the one here rather than being a mod or anything.
Also, I suppose kids come to different parents for different areas of advice and / or differing relationships with their parents. Certainly that’s the case with my own kids.
I also thought about dads asking for advices from other dads, could it be both?
I don’t see any reason why not but again I’m not the mod.
edit: I do recall quite a few of the folks asking for help or advice being ones who had grown up without a dad and they felt a certain loss in that regard so were reaching out from that perspective. Also people whose father had died and they used to go to them for advice in a specific area.
I used to contribute to that on Reddit. Might be worth trying to revive and post on here about if you have the time to mod it still.
My own experience with this was posting a shower thoughts thread while quite inebriated, forgetting I’d done it then waking up with a fairly full inbox so nothing controversial or argumentative.
Yeah I could definitely identify each euro coin by feel.
It sure is and welcome to Lemmy :)
OH MY GOD! I had one of those! I haven’t seen a picture of one since.
The keyboard was so awful. I don’t remember getting it as a birthday or other gift so it must have been a hand me down from a family friend or something.
I think that about sums it up
Moved in with my wife fairly shortly after we started dating. I’d say within 3-4 months. It just felt right to both of us. Married 20 years now.
I have gotten a few family members and friends to use signal as I stated to them that this is the only way to get ahold of me.
Same. It’s the default app for everyone I’m close to.
E2E with privately generated and held keys, have you published your PGP public key yet?
Exactly. You can’t stop secure encryption.
I remember in the very old days of the internet when only the US had strong encryption and thought it was some gotcha. They labeled it a weapon to prevent overseas export. Phil Zimmerman created PGP, lobbed the source into a book (protected under 1st amendment) then shipped it overseas.
If strong encryption exists and people want to use it, you’re just not going to be able to stop them.
Thanks for the recommendation. Watched it last night and thoroughly enjoyed it. Great popcorn movie.
The Pacific was great. I think it was the follow up to Band of Brothers.
