Sounds awesome (except the stealing part)!
My local government is pushing for people to bike more instead of driving, but if you have a decent-looking bike it will be stolen. Bike theft is so bad that there is a satirical movement to oppose biking until the bike theft situation has been dealt with.
Woodworking! Yes, you can obviously spend lots of money on equipment, but you’d be surprised by how nice furniture you can build with just a track saw and a trim router.
I sign papers with customers from all over the world, and if I get to sign first and need to add a date, I invariably go for YYYY-MM-DD from ISO-8601. If they go first it’s most often illegible to readers without any cultural context.
Yeah, in those cases I sometimes just put “she” instead. If they are the type of person to get upset by that (presumably because it’s a he that doesn’t want to be mistaken for a she), it’s precisely the person I want to offend. Reasonable people don’t care.
This holds true for many professions. “Bullshit Jobs” by David Graeber comes to mind.
Never go back to front.
Trying to de-bloat KDE feels like a game of chicken. Whichever K-application I try to uninstall, I get a prompt asking me to confirm if I want to uninstall a plethora of important-sounding kde packages. It gambles on me not knowing which “kde-[…]” packages are vital for KDE Plasma to run, so I don’t take the chance on uninstalling the email client, multimedia programs etc.
Old command line interface works perfectly but that’s mostly for developer.
No. I’m comfortable with command line tools, and I’m far from being a developer. People used DOS etc. as well without being developers.
I get that. In my city there are at least 2 makerspaces and 1 communal workshop where you can use all their tools at any time, for a monthly membership fee. I would totally use that option if I didn’t have my own house. Not sure how common that is around the world though.
