Sugar is a must

And that’s the small Ranger! The F150 is large in comparison to the Ranger.

I have a Secret Labs chair at home and at work. I am so very picky with chairs too. I have the Titan at home and the Omega at work. The Omega is just a bit too small, but I really like them both. Better than the $500 crap mesh back office chairs they got for everyone.

Lemmies!

Come on kid. You’re still pretty young! I’m 58 and aside from the damn arthritis and multiple surgeries with my wrists and hands, I’m okay. Like @rm_dash_r_star@lemm.ee, mine would have also been a typewriter in that case. I love tech and try to keep up as best I can. I absolutely love music and try keep up and am always seeking new and undiscovered music in the genres that I love which spans so many genres.

For getting older, we just got to take care of ourselves as best we can. Eat not terribly, get a bit of exercise. Even if it’s just taking care of the yard or walking the dog. Take your meds if you have them. Please do this part. I lost a really good friend at 52 because he didn’t take his high blood pressure medication.

This is great. Thank you very much! I found a couple of “how to” elsewhere but they are so long and go into details I don’t need right now.

I watch Pluto TV once in a while. I think that’s a good solution for people who don’t have friends or family with a Plex-type media server.

I’m probably about average when it comes to tech stuff. I always feel dumb when I start looking into getting started with usenet, then get intimidated and quit researching. My torrent + vpn has failed me a couple of times in the past three years. So I really just need to make the leap. Just finding this community and reading through some of the posts has given me an initiative boost.

Yeah, I understand. Maybe I’ll get more confident. I’d feel better if I had my old phone to practice on first. Thanks!

I went to college in the early 1990s not knowing what I wanted to do. Getting my general courses out of the way at a local community college, I took a Geography class and fell in love with almost everything about Geography. After a couple of years, I moved on to a University to major in Geography wanting to make maps magazines basically. Like Newsweek, Time or even National Geographic. Or become a teacher, which I did not want to do. Then two of my Geography professors started pushing GIS as a discipline/career and offering basic courses. I loved everything about GIS. Three months out of college in 1995, I landed a job as a GIS Coordinator for a very small rural midwestern county.

It was a 100% ground-floor GIS implementation starting with the County Assessor, like most county GIS started. I walk into my new office on my first day and in the middle of the room were stacks of boxes containing an AIX/Unix workstation. 26" CRT monitor, Arc/INFO workstation software and an HP DesignJet 650c (I think). It was a challenge learning both Unix and possibly the most complicated GIS software ever. For the kids who may not know, Arc/Info workstation was a command line-driven GIS software from Esri. ALL aspects of using the software had to be typed into a command line. Until you learned the art of making custom menus.

Then we bought a used HUGE digitizing table. The guy was at least 6ft x 5ft with motorized lift and tilt.

Anyway, I’ve been doing this for about 28 years now. I’m still enjoying it for the most part. I’m in the private sector now and don’t really care for the stress and worry of always having to make a profit.

they’ve fallen down to the likes of Roku.

What’s the beef with Roku? I’m all in on Roku at home. I even got a new TV with Web OS or Tizen recently, I don’t remember. I hated the OS and went out and bought a Roku Ultra LT for it. Have I just accepted or gotten used to the crap? Like the Netflix, Hulu, etc buttons on the remote or are there other problems?

It’s been happening lately on my S22 Ultra. Very annoying. If I didn’t think I’d brick my phone, I would root it. Well first I would figure out what rooting is… :\

I also have a ‘flat’ bowl. My cat isn’t happy with her food until I put some of her food on the floor and watch her eat for a couple of minutes. She is the boss… apparently.

Hey metal. I’m brand new to Lemmy and wanted to say what’s up?! I’m 58 and an old school metalhead who was stuck in the 80s / early 90s for the longest time. Mostly the classic heavy metal and Thrash. Mercyful Fate, old Big 4 thrash, Judas Priest, old Maiden, (up to Powerslave), Coroner and a few more. I recently discovered that I like Black Metal and Blackened Thrash. I love Immortal and Goatwhore. I listened to Immortal for the first time less than a year ago. Aside from them, I’m liking Melechesh, Rotting Christ, Wormwith. Then Angelis Apatrida and Injector for some newer Thrash and a shitton more in between. Like others, I’m really all over the place with most genres. I’m always looking to continue expanding my music and metal horizons.

Hello! I’m 58 from Missouri and I just signed up here tonight. I’m fairly techy. I remember connecting to various BBS while in school with my 24k modem on my Tandy 1000 from Radio Shack. But this is all a bit overwhelming and a little confusing. I’m committed to getting the hang of it all and ditching the other place. Picture of my dog that likes to sit on rocks.
