I feel embarrassed to say this, but I straight up have to use reminders to go "hey, talk to X person" and set them up in advance. Because otherwise our chats will just be me going "happy birthday" or "happy new year" and that's it for the year.
It's not that my friends aren't important to me, its just that it never occurs to me naturally to be the one reaching out. Can't tell if I'm a bad friend or if I just have zero object permanence for people lmao
Yes exactly, that's how I think of my standing desk too (and I thought that was the whole point of them). You're not actually standing at them, you're supposed to move around. Standing for too long is uncomfy, so a standing desk makes you move around more as you start to feel less comfortable standing in one position.
Oh for real? I just got one and I never thought to get these types of things. I've heard of anti-fatigue mats, but what are these things called (just so I can look them up)?
I never "stand" at my standing desk, I'm always moving. Ngl, I thought the whole point of these desks was that standing for too long is uncomfortable, so you naturally move around more, take more breaks, and go for stretches.

No?
I've never gotten shit from people for having a strong work/life balance and boundaries. Unless you're being really dickish and combative when you're communicating boundaries, most people are not going to give you grief about them.
Just installed it and woof, this is very good looking. I was waiting for K9 mail to get a few more updates before making it my daily driver, but this works really well already.
Also love an app with an FAQ that actually answers questions I'm thinking lol
Oh hey, fellow org user!
I'm in the same boat. I don't do calendaring that much, but agenda is what I use when I'm time blocking tasks.
My main complaint is that I can't get it to sync to my Google calendar. I have tried org-gcal but the gpg encryption never works for me so I just gave up. I would have liked it to have easier viewing on mobile, but that's minor enough that I don't care. Orgzly with notifications on lets me know when its time to do something anyway.
Pretty much yes. The only one I'm not 100% on (besides the scout skin, since that was after I stopped playing) is the engineer prosthetic. I feel like that weapon came out a while after TF2 was made (but I can't check that right now so don't take my word for it).
Right target, wrong reason: Testing for HAM makes complete sense. It's government imposed to get licensed, and that's because the equipment required for HAM could be easily modified to interfere with other electronics or run up against communications laws. HAM being self-regulated (in that everyone is a snitch if they find out you're operating without a license) is only going to be possible if everyone is a snitch. Also, everyone has to share the radio spectrum, so you should know how to be a good actor before you get the chance to go on air.
But there is gatekeeping in HAM in how few beginners focused resources there are. At least in Canada, I found only one set of books that taught the latest HAM exam and one series of YouTube videos (thanks Ylabs!)
I have found very few "your first radio" resources. Hunting for that sort of thing is an intimidating experience, full of jargon and acronyms (not stuff like "VHF" and stuff you need for the exam, but model descriptions and stuff). Lots of sites and radio club web pages aren't kept up to date, and it's a lot to ask of new people that they come out to field day for in person meetups when it's just a bunch of strangers.
