• Watch tv.
• Read a book.
• Play single-player pc games.
• Literally go outside and touch grass.

I don’t usually go along with trends, so my worst one is the starbucks planner thing where you collect stickers for every coffee you buy and you get a planner notebook for the coming year. Most expensive notebook I ever bought, and a waste of money. Also feels disgusting giving all that money to starbucks. This was like15 years ago though.

Do you have grocery delivery in your area? If she isn’t picky with the brand of pizza, maybe a $6 frozen pizza heated in the oven would be an alternative. Not sure if you have to tip, I haven’t tried it myself.

All the obvious ones have been mentioned already, so I’ll just add:

• Keyboard tray if your desk doesn’t have one. It allows you to achieve the 90 degree arm position without having to set your desk too low or your chair too high.

• Wrist pad. A nice gel pad provides great support for your wrist. Just make sure your keyboard and mouse are at the appropriate heights, because if not, a wrist pad can make it worse.

• Head rest add-on to your chair if it doesn’t have one.

• Laptop stand to lift your laptop screen to eye level. It also helps to keep it aligned to an external monitor so they are the same heights.

Now it can not only tell you to eat rocks, but also what type of rock would be best for your digestion.

Cool! I might join as this is another avenue to get my music out to more audiences, but I agree with the other comment, not discord please.

I seriously never realized that and only found out today they are father and son.

Ok this one is actually cool.

Can I post my own officially published music there?

Agreed. For me, music takes me back to the place I was at when I was listening to it, especially when I’m traveling. I can recall specific situations in other countries where I traveled to just by hearing the songs I was listening to at the time.

There was a video a few years back of Sinclair(?) or something that had all the networks they owned say the same thing, and it was very dystopian.

Sinclair.

Happy cake day! Thanks for modding the crossword community. It singlehandidly got me back into crosswords.

Well if they didn’t make it so damn itchy.

3 weeks so far lol. I’ll probably have to finally mow next week before it gets unmanageable.

Not sure how long ago you tried installing linux, but it has come a long way such that there are distros out there that are basically plug-and-play installable now. I installed Linux Mint on an old laptop and just went through the gui installer like you would on a Windows installation, and it was up and running. Didn’t need to open the terminal even once.

Just wanted to mention there is also !crossword@lemmy.world with a very active mod.

I’m sorry, but I’m not arguing in bad faith. City trips and (not country biking) doesn’t automatically mean you’re not exposed to the elements. I live within city limits and it’s a 10 mile bike ride to get to downtown. According to maps, it’s a 1 hour trip, which is manageable, but 95% of the time I would biking directly under the sun. I will only be able to avoid exposure in limited spurts as I get near downtown with all the overpasses. As of this comment it’s 95F and 70% humidity. Elements does not just mean rain and snow. A lot of people underestimate how bad prolonged sun exposure is.

One con not mentioned: Exposure to the elements. Being able to ride a bike comfortably in the weather depends on where you live. Prolonged exposure to the sun even with sunscreen is not good. Also, air pollution.

Edit: Lol at the downvotes. I invite you all to bike in my state in the almost 5 months of sweltering heat in our summer. I’m not anti bike at all and I wish more people would do it. I just wanted to remind people that you also have to be equipped for the weather of the place you will be biking at. Also, I do not like melanoma.
