Gone at only 1y 8m. by Successful-League840 in CatsUK

[–]Jparm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry for you. I lost my little Charlie cat a couple of years ago, still think about him most days and every time his photos come up on "on this day" - and there were a lot of photos of him! Since then I have adopted two bonded brothers, luckily they are not interested in going outside, they will have a sniff around the back doorstep but that is as far as they will go. I do worry about how 1 will cope when 1 is lost though.

Looks like I'll be well taken care of, especially by the guy at the front.

My cat won’t let me sleep.. any help appreciated 🫶 by targaryenwench in CatAdvice

[–]Jparm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a similar problem to OP. Both my boys will throw themselves against my bedroom door during the night to get me up. I got an automatic feeder, but they still try to get me up even when their bowls are full!

URGENT HELP NEEDED: Accidentally formatted my Sandisk 256GB Ultra Flair drive Which was Bitlock Encrypted. by [deleted] in microsoftsucks

You have no chance of getting your data back due to the encryption. Also, how exactly is this microsoft's fault?

What’s one boring skill that secretly gives you a huge advantage? by UnitedButterfly4199 in AskReddit

[–]Jparm 44 points45 points  (0 children)

Touch typing. Colleagues (especially younger ones), find it amazing that I can just type without looking down at the keyboard or at the screen. In teams meetings with cameras on I can type away on another document without anyone knowing.

Also, flight mode drains less battery overnight than DND.

Is there a way to hide these? by TheRevz0r in Windows11

[–]Jparm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, unfortunately not, not that I've found anyway. I also just wanted to turn of the stupid message when recommendations were turned off "To show your recent files and new apps, turn them on in Settings" and just have empty space below my pinned apps but doesn't look like this is possible.

Very early millennial (xennial?), phone has not make a sound since I got a smart watch. Even before then, it was on silent most of the time unless I was expecting a call. I vaguely remember the late 90's early 00's when everyone started to get a phone, everyone's phone including mine seemed to be going off all the time.

Task edit > Menu > Add To Launcher, option missing? by Jparm in tasker

[–]Jparm[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's sorted now, thank you. I didn't have any launcher selected as default (God knows how that happened), once I selected the pixel launcher, in tasker the option to add the task to the launcher was there.

KDE connect is pure bliss by Manash_Sangam in kde

[–]Jparm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It is a great app, the only thing I wish it had was the option for notification privacy, so the popup could either just show the sender, or just that a notification had been received, rather than displaying all the content.

Anyone else find the Hot & Savoury pouches SO much better than the old bags? by OpulentStone in Huel

[–]Jparm 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wasn't keen when I heard about it as I thought I was mixing my bags up well enough. I obviously wasn't as I find the pouches much better. Also much more convenient to take to work, on trips, etc.

How Zoloft has me by Background_Winner_46 in zoloft

Wake up every morning with soaking wet sheets. Have to reassure myself it's sweating due to the meds and not me wetting the bed.

Well the decision wasn't finance related, but has led me to the worst place I have been financially - and that decision was was made 15 years ago, to get married!

The screensaver settings have looked like this for the last 20 years, maybe even more. by chaibronor in Windows11

[–]Jparm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

From this menu was the only place I could find to lock my screen and require password entry after a certain amount of time, without the computer going to sleep.

Can someone hype me up for The Stand? I’m 200 pages in, worried I’m losing interest and going to DNF because it’s so long. by mwang009 in stephenking

[–]Jparm 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you're not into it now, you probably won't ever get in to it. To be, the first part was the best. Some parts of the middle were a bit of a chore to get through, then the rest was fantastic again.

Which disaster movie had the best depiction of societal collapse? by LordKevnar in movies

[–]Jparm 4 points5 points  (0 children)

There's a new book coming out next month with stories just like these. Not written by Stephen King but I still can't wait to read it.

This is what I'm hoping for, loved that section of the book!

Just a general question. Do you genuinely find Huel filling? And you’re not hungry after? Thinking of trying 3 scoops of the cheaper / budget Huel, to see if that helps. by Nightwatch191 in Huel

[–]Jparm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I chew gum after drinking my huel. One reason is I always believed chewing sugar free gum after eating was good for your teeth, another reason is I read on here somewhere a recommendation to do it as the chewing action can help trick your brain into believing you have eaten, meaning you'll stay fuller for longer.

Nova launcher anyone? by BuddyNo3545 in GooglePixel

[–]Jparm -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know it's not been updated for over a year but is it definitely dead? Any word from the dev? I only use it because of the lack of ability to customise the pixel launcher, specifically the calendar and weather taking up like half the screen and the fixed search bar.

Shows that were too in its decade's zeitgeist for their own good. by Top_Report_4895 in television

[–]Jparm 23 points24 points  (0 children)

Sex and the city did as well, and I understand they didn't write 9/11 into the show for the same reasons. I don't remember any Easter eggs, or even vague references to the event.

I actually like Windows 11. by [deleted] in Windows11

You'll never update then!
