You're acting like birds are actually real or something

Wrong explanations only

By their own book, the bad guy thought the stupid naked people should have a bit of an education and the good guy punished them for trying to improve their knowledge base. Serpents rule!

I was taught in school that the real battle in the universe is between chaos and order. They gave it a fancy name, Entropy, but that was the gist.

So Chaos is God and Order is Satan. Live all hunter gathering under God or just go to the Supermarket under Satan, and spend the rest of your time doing other things, like making art or scientific theories.

Even now the Church is against progress. Don't let them Gays get married for fucks sake, the world will explode.

Hail Satan.

Let it go

Come to the UK, we don't do any of that shit here. In Yorkshire we just nod and say "Alreight?" or "How do?" and that's it, job done.

UK here, I used to smoke Joints with tobacco mixed in. Gave up tobacco but still liked a joint.

I moved to a dry herb vape, and now only smoke a Joint very occasionally when someone offers me a cigarette, which is very rare because of the price.

I go "Yeah thanks" and put it behind my ear and tell em I'll get 2 joints out of that later.

Meh, I spend that on weed, and more on rum

Sounds like you're a shit Manager to me.

I agree wholeheartedly, and when we got locked down for COVID I learned how to play guitar and automate my house using a raspberry pi. It was a great time, and I look back on it fondly. I finally had time to pursue things that interested me, that I didn't have time for with work.

Nowadays I play guitar and tinker with home automation, and work as well, but back then I had the hours to put in to starting the hobbies.

As someone who has done both I couldn't agree more.

I run Home Assistant and could just pay their subscription to get external access, which also supports development. But I'm a cheap Yorkshireman so I went with DuckDNS, Let's Encrypt, Nginx and all that jazz for a long time. I'm just trying to hook my home up to Google so I can talk to it, I don't wanna pay money!

I had so many bloody glitches! I'd have to sign things in on a weekly basis, Google lost access all the damn time and it was just a nuisance.

I have a rule for hobbies, I do it cheap for at least a few months to see if I lose interest. If I get a bit obsessive, it's worth spending money on the hobby.

So after a year or two of fucking around with Nginx and DuckDNS I found the cloudflare plugin, which worked for free for a while. It was night and day, everything remained connected!

It ultimately bugged out one day and I decided to just bite the bullet and buy a domain. It's a hobby I've invested enough time in that a few quid for a solution that just works is worth it.

I think I dropped £35 for 5 years (I forget, it might be a decade) of owning my own .com domain name, which cloudflare manages for me.

I now have to reconnect my Google home to my home assistant once every couple of months instead of every week.

I haven't missed the money, and I certainly haven't missed the fucking tinkering to get it to work.

I like to play

They're all just Urinals now
