I sort of think the goal was to make people stressed and demoralized after RTO failed to get enough people to quit. But yeah, certainly not for any useful purpose for me and my bosses

that's smart! you don't need a 7th pair for laundry day

I recently got 5 meters of addressable RGB LED pseudo-neon, a controller, and a power supply. Gonna mount it on the wall and remote control it with WLED. I also got a generic pyraminx and megaminx

it's a really good name though! (was going to say "really cool" but it in fact is zero cool)

same idea, different song! I hasn't heard of that one. I had a several year streak going before I got sniped by an ad

do you play the LDB game?

I did chores, got shelves for my garage (but they are sitting unassembled in my car still), worked out, did laundry, went for a walk, practiced guitar, which is pretty much everything I wanted to do. Feeling pretty good!

The whole week worked out great from a pedestrian aspect! I didn't get in a motorized vehicle between stepping off the plane and getting back on. I had all my stuff for the week in a backpack and a messenger bag so I wasn't dragging around a roller bag, and San Diego downtown is nicely walkable

They think they can make money (which, yes, is the society they inhabit). Everything now is an opportunity for a grindset hustle

For example, a decade ago there were people wanting to "clean up the fandom" while running for-profit "family friendly" cons

and have not personally witnessed the parade of every counter culture being cleaned up, commoditized, and turned into a consumerist identity you can purchase

it's easier to define primes so it's not than to always have to deal with 1 as a counterexample to everything
