I was 2 years “too late”. I had an extra test in accounting to determine if I were allowed to attend the finals. It was only then that I understood a subject I didn’t understand for the whole time at college. I got an A on that test and crushed the finals with a B.

Ah yes, the Portable Monitor - the Pornitor

We here in the Apple Garden know that Apple takes all our usage data and trust then that they are used anonymously. But Apple has no access to data when it is encrypted, they even warn you when you encrypt your data that you need to safe the keys yourself, they can only delete everything if you lose them.

I was in a similar situation, but I got a MacBook M1 for literally everything but PC exclusive gaming, and I kept my gaming rig dual booting windows (on the HDD) and Pop!_OS (boots automatically, saved on SSD).

Why did I get a MacBook? I just wanted it. I‘d probably throw SteamOS on the gaming rig one day and use steam-link with an Ethernet cable to stream the games to the MacBook.

The problem isnt the processing, the problem is that making a giant pile of home made chips is hard and time consuming so you probably wont

This is it exactly! Look at noodles! I consider them processed food, and since I got a noodle machine (non-electric) I don’t eat them as often as I used to.

In my honest opinion, processed things are things that are, through scientific methods, made to be addictive. Like Pringles having the perfect crunch or different chemical compounds of Red Bull (color spot on the bottom). I don’t count cured meat as processed, but I have a hard time calling a pound of deli ham anything but processed.

Nah man I’m good with my H E E L Y S

What kind of burnout? I am close to a caregiver burnout due to my depressed ADD partner. It’s weird when work feels like a chill out area.

That cliffhanger….

Anything but the metric system
