It’s wild how quickly teeth can shift when you don't wear your Invisalign for a few weeks. (Forgot to pack them for a trip).

Now I'm about 4 trays behind where I had been, and my teeth are still hurting enough to require Tylenol and Advil rotations.

Lesson learned, I'd say.

Also, : auch reduzierte Milch im Regal stehen lassen und stattdessen beim Bauer kaufen. Beim hiesigen Bauern gibt's da noch 1l Milch für 1€.

Früher, als ich laptops nutzte habe ich alle möglichen stromspar tools genutzt, um eine bessere Akkulaufzeit zu erzielen. Da gab es , -mode-tools , oder . So ist man zum Beispiel von 8 Watt auf 5 Watt im Idle gekommen und das hatte eine Menge bewirkt. Mit schrecken stellte ich zuerst fest, dass viele der Tools für AMD nicht ordentlich funktionieren. Allerdings, auch ganz ohne tools hat mein AMD Ryzen Laptop nur 4.5 Watt idle... Mega

@DToher that reminds me of the hard way recently:

when powering off your mother's phone, make sure she (you) know the SIM pin code for when you turn it on again. If no pin code available, do not power it off under any circumstances. Not even if it's on fire (*).

Honestly, have you tried turning off and back on again is not the best first course of action

(*) slight exaggeration

The one thing I do appreciate tremendously about Mastodon and the community you signed up with, is the actual social responsibility you have here.

A lesson learned for me today, but it's a valuable thing to stand trial for your stupidity to your peers. I wrote something dumb and insensitive and got told out.

Had I done that on Twitter I'd either get ignored or brigaded by trolls and bots. On facebook it'd never get noticed anyway.

today: (1) Merge does not preserve the order unless you are merging by the index. (2) Make sure to use `ignore_index=True` when you concat or your index might acquire duplicates. Want to hear how much fun I had to come up with these gems of wisdom? 😂

If the salsa is neon-ish green just go ahead and make the assumption that it’s going to make the lower half of your face throb for the next two hours and just commit to the experience.

I've learned that 40mg CBD gummies and Meloxicam (for arthritis) do not mix well.

I had a gummy last night, it actually took about 90 minutes before it kicked in and when it did, I had a hard time moving around. I was bouncing off of the walls in my bedroom and not in a good way.

It was like being very drunk. I had really bad cotton mouth, spins off and on, and my brain didn't seem to want to shut off (which meant next to zero sleep).

@rvaughnmd I mean, if you’re going to cheat, don’t cheat TOO much, right?

It is infinitely better to do outdoors in beautiful nature than indoors. The indoors can't contain my vibe.

Connect with nature and be renewed, instead of being distracted indoors with artificial things like TV and video .

: Bio trash can also be picked up before 6:30, but if you have everything prepared for getting it out, one can still make it ... after being woken up by the garbage truck.

I worked on that commission for over 10 hours today... and it's Still. NOT. done... I should've known when he asked to jump the line that it was going to be a rough one. I had him pay more to do it, but I shoulda charged more than that. next time someone asks to "jump the line" it's going to be double the cost.

@jaygogh Instax Mini 90 Neo Classic. In Macro mode and at the right distance but I was rushed and sort of aimed it looking at the lens from the side, rather than through the viewfinder - parallax error got me big time!

Side note: even if you have a nearly bog-standard installation running a few scripts, you still lose your SSH keys, crontab, email configuration etc. if the storage medium croaks. Even that small stuff is a hassle to restore and deserves a backup.
