I just wish the newly announced animated vignettes with 90s legacy characters were actually going to be done in the Filmation style. I wasn’t at all impressed with the main character designs that were released at SDCC.
@elonjet To add further context, the average carbon footprint of a single person, per year, is ~5 tonnes. So Elon Nazi Musk there is putting out as much in one trip, as your average family of 4 does in an entire year, if they have two cars.
If my dental insurance has 100% coinsurance on preventative and basic care, 70% coinsurance on major care, a deductible of $50, and a maximum payout of $2000, does that mean I can only spend the insurance $ on major services and pay out of pocket for everything else?
Of course! Hopefully they can look into a different future plan. I do know a lot of people who just don’t bother with dental insurance due to the poor coverage overall.
It’s a shame most of the world doesn’t treat dental as medical considering the health risks of not treating those conditions.
I am searching for something to sync my phone contacts between multiple phones for some time. Best case it shouldn't use DAVx^5 and should support Android and iOS. Thanks for your suggestions!
What I found so far:
Nextcloud - but needs DAVx^5
Radicale - also needs DAVx^5
SoGo - needs some CARD-DAV application
Because Davx5 only works with Android and he stated he wants something that syncs across all of his devices. I came across this posting because I am also looking for a solution to sync contacts between my Android and iPhone. I am trying to get away from Nextcloud because it’s overkill for my use case… So far I have tried Radicale and Baikal but neither works for iOS.
It was 3°C this morning... no summer or holiday mood, I'm afraid.
Work in the study at home in 13° max with no heating cos I'd be losing 90% of the heat to no insulation cos AUS builds like it's the 1840ies in England.

Sorry to hear about the deficits of Australian architecture. I totally understand that it is hard to have summer feelings under these conditions.
But we have loads of evidence of #emdiplomats who complain about the rain, cold and the wheather in general. So, you are in good company. 😉
Short: In the game you have the option to supplement pops with robots and eventually turn your pops into machines. It’s also a 40k mechanicus joke.
Long: Machines will supplement workforce. So we don’t need more pops when the pops are getting more efficient. Having too many spares will just add more food demand which will drain resources better allocated elsewhere. Have to balance growth with jobs and resources if you want to win. Min max FTW!
My first client is late today, so y'all get my braindumps this morning. I am 46. I guess that's in the window of possibly starting to experience #perimenopause. I haven't been able to determine if my temp regulation issues are because of #autism#anxiety or perimenopause. But they started getting really bad last yr. My husband had bought this same #Embr Wave Cooling Bracelet for his dad when he was going through chemo. It had helped him, so he bought one for me. 1/

🥹 I understand. There are generations of patriarchal socializing and shaming 😒 that produce an unsafe and female body shaming environment. It's in the water as the say...#feminism has come a ways, but there's a ways more to go.

Left school thinking 2nd wave feminism had fixed everything. In my first job in a bank, 1977, ascthecjuniorci made coffee for everyone when the doors closed at 3pm. When we got a new junior, it was still my job. The new junior was male. And when the female advance clerk got a promotion, I heard someone ask who she’d slept with.
We're both getting on in years. She's older than me and she's worried that if she goes before me (not imminently.. 20 to 30 years at least I hope) I'll be on my own without friends.
I keep telling there's a difference between being lonely or being alone.
I don't really have a social life outside of my wife and her friends (and I consider them HER friends rather than mine) but that's fine for me #autistic#ActuallyAutistic
I love my alone time, and I would feel very much like you are if someone kept emphasizing to me that I need to go make friends.
I don't know how I would feel being alone for an extended period. I've been alone for 2-3 weeks and not felt particularly lonely within that time period - but I also knew my wife was coming back.
My very small social network (2-3 close friends) is almost exclusively online. When I don't talk to those people regularly, I feel lonely. That makes me think that socializing online is enough to fend off the loneliness, but I'm not entirely sure.
Honestly - you know yourself better than anyone else. If you've given it some thought and concluded that it's not important to you, and you don't feel like you're missing anything, that's perfectly okay and valid.
@DoctorDisco@actuallyautistic
I am by nature very solitary. Always lived alone and very happily. The lockdowns for me were a dream and heaven
However, as I get older and with only a couple of nieces left to call my family and virtually no support network I am conscious I may have to change my ways somewhat and begin to work on that a little.
Just not entirely sure how yet.
