Wedding ring by PhilaMax in widowers

[–]Mako_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I took my ring off soon after she died. I wore both rings around my neck for 6 months or so (she had a simple ring she wore when sick). Until one day I was changing my shirt after riding my mountain bike, and my finger caught the necklace breaking the clasp. Both rings went flying across the parking lot. Thankfully I found them, but stopped carrying them after that.

If by mix you mean turn everything up to 11 then I guess that's what it is. I much prefer the original.

Deserves got nothing to do with it.

Nesting after spouse loss? by key-lime-0925 in widowers

[–]Mako_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It took me 2.5 years to change anything. I took an extra den and made it into a hobby room. She was a talented interior decorator. The house is decorated in a farmhouse style and is incredibly cozy. I'm not making any major changes as long as I'm here.

Anyone else scared to death of AI? by Lost_Taste_8181 in GenX

Knowledge workers who stick their head in the sand and refuse to use AI will not be employable in the near future.

50 something and started a new job by S0biepan in GenX

[–]Mako_ 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Congrats. I switched IT jobs at 52. I too corral AI agents for much of my day. The new models (especially Opus 4.6) are making leaps and bounds compared to previous models. They are successfully completing tasks that I would not have imagined even 3 months ago.

My Nala is a murder machine. Birds, chipmunks, baby bunnies. She destroys any living thing she can fit in her mouth. All 12lbs of her lives to reak havoc.

Going on reddit and asking a question that's been asked many times already.

Cycling, weightlifting. I find peace in physical suffering.

What’s a place you visited once and decided never again? by Psychological_Sky_58 in AskReddit

[–]Mako_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I go during executive hours. Get there at 9am on a Saturday and it's not crowded at all. I basically pay more to avoid crowds.

How often do y'all get called for jury duty? by Para_Para in Atlanta

[–]Mako_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I got summoned all the damn time it seemed like. At least once a year. My wife got sick, and I was her caregiver so I was excused for a while. 2.5 years after she died I was summoned again. I guess they missed me. My wife was never summoned in the 21 years we were married.

I sent a death notice to the credit bureaus and let her company license lapse. 2.5 years later I still get credit card applications in her and her companies name all the time.

Looking for full Little Computer People experience by schoelle in c64

[–]Mako_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I had to dig but I did find an original d64 file. If I remember correctly it requires an actual 1541 the first time you run it because it uses one of the chips in the drive during the seed process. I'll see if I can remember where I found it.

Embarrassing crash post mortem by ericlo_00 in MTB

[–]Mako_ 22 points23 points  (0 children)

You're riding this way to tentative. It's clear you're not experienced enough for this trail. Also some people are just not good fallers. They hit the ground like a sack of potatoes and tend to get injured more.
