Explorer, SG or Les Paul?

Strat-style is peak guitar, IMO.

Chromatic scale is a fine starting point, too.

The frets are in good shape? The action is ok?

For chords, look up “The 3-chord trick” and you unlock a LOT of songs with that.

(I have no idea how much you know about stringed instruments, so apologies if anything comes across as condescending)

Oh, there are multiple correct ways!

A dog is a great choice, but I’d get some kind of mutt. Some Labrador, German Shepherd and grizzly bear mixed in for flavour.

Also, I started my self-hosting journey in a Pi 4.

I’m running DietPi and it’s been very easy to just ssh in (I only discovered the web interface on Sunday!) and install off the provided ‘app store’ and it’s very plug-and-play.

If you set up whatever, and have it DNS through PiHole or AdGuard running on a Pi, you get a decent amount of protection.

You need to let yourself off the hook.

You are not obliged to feel happy all the time. You, and everyone else will have their ups and downs, and one thing I can guarantee you is that trying to force yourself to be happy or shaming yourself for not feeling happy is the fast track to feeling worse.

So long as your basic needs are met, you’re doing alright.

If you have the bandwidth, hop on a voice of video call with someone you trust. Ask them first if they have the spoons to listen to you express how you’re feeling, but don’t be mad or disappointed in them if they don’t, everyone has their own things to deal with. Tell them how you feel and how you want to feel better. Tell them all the things that are bothering you. They will probably have suggestions, some or all of them might be stuff you’ve tried already, and it might be tiresome to hear, but they care about you so it’s to be expected.

After that, carry on, maybe schedule a recurring time to play games online or something. But expressing how you feel, out loud, can be immensely helpful.

If not, we can try something else.

Both is good!

Also, Apple was kinda dull under Cook.

Which is a weird thing to say when you have big swings like the Vision Pro. But the phones pads and watches really played it safe.

I’m supposed to get more worn down and/or conservative as I get older. But the more I learn about the horrors that a state will readily commit against its people, I find myself shifting from a MLKjr mindset to Malcom X one.

It’s like Alt-F4! Free aimbot in counter-strike 1.6

Or, as is the case with my Samsung monitor, they have Bluetooth always on.

Conjecture: This, I believe, is so it can find and talk to other Samsung devices that ARE connected to the internet and phone home.

Ffffffffuc

Incorrect.

This is the episode where a new cop shows main character named Homer Simpson.

Though, by the second episode they change the character to a bumbling oaf.

Hard-hitting journalism.

But what about narrower roads? Perhaps making space for protected bike lanes and sidewalks, maybe shaded by trees?

……

Oh! I get it!

Mr. White?

Do you not remember his name?
