Home: Windows 11, work OSX. I moved my personal computer to Linux a couple years ago (I've been using Linux since the mid 90s), but game support was an issue. I'll try again soon. Windows is a necessary evil that I'd like not to be necessary.

I just had to work with my doctor to fill out an ADA (American Disability Act) form to allow me to work from home. I've been working from home for three years and only needed it now. (I do have the disability, but this whole back to the office thing has been annoying.)

Over a decade on Reddit makes this a multi-day slog. It looks quite useful, but I've spent the last month moving into Lemmy. I'm using the same strategy here that I used there: search for the basics, subscribe, read, and if anything interesting mentions another community, subscribe on the fly. (Of course this strategy is probably why looking at Wefwef's migration is overwhelming.)

TL;DR: ADHD makes some things a challenge.

Why can't I be both?

I need someone (or some two) like this locally. Sometimes the strength is needed. I also need a handy person on call because getting old sucks.

I always ask "do you want help with that?"

If they're talking nonstop, they don't want input. If they're not, this is the question I ask. Most of the time they just want to be heard, but not always.

I started using Spark late last year. It's simplified my mail handling quite a bit. There's also a desktop client for Windows, Dunno about OSX and IOS.

Looks a lot like my phone. The number of Lemmy apps is slowly increasing. I'm mostly washing for Sync for Lemmy.

Of my last four cars (bought over 10 years), one was from a dealer, and all were brand new. At this point, I'm very dealer adverse, and may never use one again.

PayPal has this functionally though you have to carry a balance in your account to use it.
