Should I text him back if we've each ghosted one another for a month at a time and had great phone calls before even going on a date that didn't go well? Please read post for full context
I would really appreciate any help! I connected with this guy on a dating app a few months ago and we started texting.

This seems to be something people don’t always give second thought to.

Like where is the goto psych/CS UI 101 class/book/YT that over simplifies but grounds someone with no background or previous knowledge? Maybe something like the “Blender Doughnut” of great UI design?...
Besides Linux isos and piracy, what are some common uses of torrenting?
It’s kind of silly, but I still really dig the idea behind torrenting and peer to peer sharing of data. It’s cool to think about any old computer helping pass along some odd bits & bytes of data, whether a goofy drawing or strange story.

People who read marketing emails, where do you find the time to do so? And why?
I assume there are people who read these things, otherwise companies wouldn’t send me so many of them.
