I wasn’t a commissioned officer. It was a civilian investigation, but not “Memento” style. Main character knew he did it. I really didn’t think the plot through very far. I just started writing with an opening scene about dumping her overboard, and an accomplice assuring me (shakes head) that she deserved it.

I’m pretty sure I would have had to change the plot to a man on the run, but the beginning would be about the “perfect crime” (which we know doesn’t exist) and then it catching up to him. Again, not very well outlined. I just needed an outlet for my feelings of betrayal.

When my ex wife burned the family and marriage to the ground, I was wrecked. About a year later, I started writing a story about solving the mystery of her “perfect crime” murder. Plot twist: the detective (me) did it!

I realized I was reliving the pain over and over again during the process. After a while, I gave up and moved on from that. Now I could go back to it as a funny project.

I have had a very hard time living by some of the wise nuggets I’ve learned, but some of the truest happiness and peace has derived from letting go and – as half-assed as it was at first – forgiving my ex.

Now I try my best to live in the present. The last past and the future are untouchable to me. Only the now matters, and in the now, those who have hurt me don’t matter to me. Only the healing and moving on.

Whatever you decide – whether it’s to try to find closure in mock confrontations or never thinking of them again – I hope you find the best path for you to a lasting peace. ❤️

Same. My biggest depressive episodes are always in the fall and dark winter. Deepest hypo episodes begin as day length becomes noticeably longer and through May. Summer is when I usually have the most stable/NT mood. This had been the case for me for about 3 decades.

I don’t know which I would day is the “biggest” though.

Usually seven days, but the vet may want you to use up all of the medication rather than going by the calendar.

Going to bed and getting up at the same time daily. My pDoc would call it, “regimented sleep pattern.” The surest way for me to get there is to exercise every day so I’m actually tired. That, and benzos when I need help.

+1 for simple. Something you don’t need to host.

I use PIA because my ISP uses CGNAT and lots of services think that means I’m behind a VPN. Surprisingly, the VPN gets me around the VPN restriction sometimes. Go figure…

tl;dr people were posting CSAM behind VPNs, and they had to either deal with CSAM and ensuing legal issues, or block VPN traffic.

At least he cites women, right?

I believe John Oliver covered this exact phenomenon in this video: https://youtu.be/TATSAHJKRd8

tl;dw Doctors assume women exaggerate pain compared to men (the opposite is true), in addition to ethnic (we’re all the same race, so I don’t use that term anymore) biases also discussed in the video.

… a lot of times, women’s […] pain [is] attributed to emotional imbalance or women being hysterical…

Donald Trump’s administration sided with Cisco in the case.

Because of course they did.

You can’t really blame a shortage of DRAM without acknowledging that you caused the shortage by pre-ordering two years worth, and allocating it only to data center customers. Louis Rossman has a few good takes on it. One is the, “I’m suing Samsung” video. The recent Gamer’s Nexus piece where he’s talking with that unboxing YouTuber is pretty spot on too.

That means you remember the thrill of getting the Diamond Multimedia Viper SVGA card (or similar)and being able to “crank up” the resolution beyond 800x600.

Enjoy your day, fellow vintage builder.

Hey! I resemble that remark!

Cool. I know mine stores my SMB credentials for my NAS, and Signal seems to store the key to decrypt the database at rest. When looking in at the values, its usually the bare minimum. I am far from well-read on it though.

Hmm… Never tried, but I assume you record yourself and then start applying filters/effects from the dropdown.

Was going to write these exact words.

I don’t know what that is, but you might want to switch to Tenacity. It’s a fork of audacity without the data collection. Its diverged some, but does everything you need it to.

Or the key to decrypt the account information, more likely. Right?

Lately, I just get overwhelmed. If my wife is there, she can run interference for me, unless she’s in the same boat. I have to live with my shame and accept that I might need to literally escape.
