God damn that takes me back to 1998 and just having moved to Alpharetta, GA

So in confused. Do I need to install thunderbird or…?

Not the answer you want, but for me, I quit cold turkey after smoking a pack a day for 15 years.

The thing that helped is that I wasn’t being forced to quit for health or social reasons. I simply realized that all smoking a cigarette was doing was making me not want to smoke another cigarette for 30 minutes. I felt I had no more desire to continue the trend.

The first week sucked. I ended up rolling loose-leaf paper into the cylindrical shape of a cigarette, putting Scotch tape on one end, and poking holes into it so that dragging on it felt like dragging on a cigarette. That actually got me through week 2.

After that, the pull to smoke was far, far weaker. It’s weird. It ends up coming in waves. You’re fine, you’re fine, then you get an overwhelming urge to light up. The need lasts for about 30 seconds and goes away quickly. Over time, the frequency between those cravings gets longer, and the cravings get smaller. At some point, I just didn’t feel like smoking at all anymore.

But yeah, the first few weeks are not great.

Best of luck!

Edit: my main advice here is that if you don’t feel like you really want to quit, you’re going to have a much harder time. If your plan is to taper down, it may be torture. If you’re plan is “I’ll only show myself this one” every so often, it’s going to be a long, drawn out losing process.

Alternative:

“Can I scan your badge?”

…quietly walk away backwards, staring them dead in the eye

I’ve never seen an illuminated logo from manufacturers other than those I’ve listed. Large, sure. Though some like Kia or Hyundai I haven’t seen get huge. Honda, maybe?

“African American culture is the antithesis to your argument. Even the most wealthy individuals sporting logos of all kinds, literally as status symbols.”

Really you’re describing the difference between striking it rich and generational wealth.

“Free”

The amount of money that those conferences cost my job and the amount of time I spend blocking cold calls from vendors that gave me shwag…

I find the same to be true when people buy cars with illuminated insignia in the grill. Mercedes Benz, Volkswagen, for example.

DevOps guy here mostly working at scale in AWS. Learning docker should be priority 1 alongside learning Linux basics. Ansible should be second IF the plan is launching docker containers on a VM as opposed to a server less option (example: AWS Fargate)

Yet when my sourdough comes out this way, everyone acts like i shit my pants

You can absolutely do this. You can mount partitions anywhere off of /

I have 5 drives in a system and I mount them as /storage1 through /storage5

You can just create partitions and mount them at whatever path you like.

Hell, you can do /c/not/sure/why/you/like/this/better/clownfarts_penis

Could be. I mean, I do enjoy 70s and 80s rock. But something about these listed i just cast get into. Dunno.

They really did suck. I tried to get into their catalog a number of times because I thought I was missing something due to the amount of people into them.

Couldn’t do it.

Same with aersomith, prince and others

That’s how I remember it as well. It was a frustrating mess of dead sites or sites that looked like they were created in 1993 and loaded with the speed of a BBS coming through a 1200 baud modern

Ah. Interesting. For work I log in to a bunch of AWS accounts and I’m only able to do two at a time. One in a normal window and another in a private window. But I can’t open a 3rd private window. So this will be the answer, I think.

Thank you!

On android…Firefox refreshes the page any time you go to another tab or app and come back. That drives me batshit.

Containers?
