    I honestly don’t know, but I’m going to be at that point again soon. I just put in my resignation for a low paying but ridiculously easy job, not because I wanted to, but because my situation changed and now I’m being forced to relocate elsewhere. Yeah, I could stay local, but then the job isn’t worth it anymore because I’m driving further (I calculated it, it’s not worth it despite the benefits and how much I like the job). So now I get to pack up my shit, move, and start a-new. Usually when I leave a job I have mixed feelings of sadness and dread, knowing that I’ll most likely never see or communicate with my co-workers ever again (the good ones that I like anyway) and the loss of the financial security net from the job itself. This time around it’s sadness but not so much dread, in a way it can actually feel a little liberating to not have to work, to not be ‘tied to the system’ despite the fact that I’ll have to return to work one way or another, I think for the time being I’m going to enjoy my final days at my current job and then take some time to enjoy life before I return to work right away, it’s going to be hard finding another job that doesn’t leave me feeling dead inside but I guess that’s life for you.




  • Thanksgiving, also I don’t consider Black Friday an actual holiday and I don’t plan to spend a single cent on any of these holidays until companies decide to pay a livable wage, so it’ll probably be a while but that’s fine since I haven’t celebrated any of these since I was a kid. Currently my wages go towards living and occasionally investing, what they don’t go towards is wasting money on unnecessary plastic garbage or electronics.


  • I prefer to randomly generate unique 16-64 character passwords (length depends on how stupid a website’s password restrictions are, some have small maximum lengths or other ridiculous requirements) then store those in an encrypted zip with a lengthy master password (that’s not written down anywhere or used anywhere else) and keep that zip on a couple USBs (always good to have redundant backups), and even then I don’t directly label what they’re used for, I have keywords that only I’d recognize that let me know what they’re used for.

    I actually had a script I wrote a while back to use Google on other home assistant devices, it’d work most of the time but Google likes to dynamically alter their elements which would occasionally result in some false positives. I was planning on eventually fixing it, but now I don’t have to, just going to take the lazy route and integrate this tool with the script lol.

    I would argue it’s unethical of them to force their obnoxious ads on people and that they’re not losing any revenue because the person that would patch an app to remove said annoyances would also be likely to just uninstall it if they were unable to patch it.

    This is why we have ad-blockers. And for the games that have embedded/offline ads, those get patched, and if that falls then uninstalled. 😛
