They/them preferred, but I won’t be mad if you forget :). Retired programmer. Many health conditions. If I’m uncharacteristically grumpy, I probably have a migraine.

  • I have a lot of experience with this. I’m allergic to literally all species of grass somehow 😂

    • Avoid triggers. For example, I avoid lawnmowers and freshly mowed lawns. Sometimes that means taking the extra long way around.
    • Be wary of dry and windy days.
    • Carry an asthma inhaler and spacer if relevant.
    • Carry antihistamines ~ they come in nasal spray, eyedropper, and pill form. Choose what’s best for you based on worst symptom.
    • Use a covid-style face mask and eye protection like wraparound sunglasses. This seriously helps a lot.
    • Don’t “tough it out” ~ if you’re suffering, go inside and take time to look after yourself.
    • If it’s severally impacting your life, go see an allergist. They can give you the good shit.

    One time my update bricked so hard. I just got a black screen then instant reboot loop. Took days to figure out but I eventually had to disassemble my PC and remove the graphics card. I later learnt a warning was accidentally elevated to a boot error which caused the bug; but I had to simply go without graphics card until they fixed it a few weeks later.
