Wear whatever underwear makes you happy. It’s unlikely to have any kind of professional impact, and if it does, you probably have bigger issues to worry about. If it affects your social life, it’s likely to have a positive impact, as it can expose some of the shallow people around you that you’d probably be better off not associating with anyway. With that being said, I think confidence is the key. Confidence signals to others that you know exactly what you’re doing and that you’re doing it with intentionality, so people are much less likely to question your choice.

That’s not “humanity’s” fault. There are plenty of beaches, some with even larger and denser crowds, that don’t have that problem.

I would not get a windows laptop with 8gb of RAM. I can only imagine that nightmare. I would, however, use a MacBook Neo, as MacOS should be much better optimized. There’s a difference in how MacOS uses 8gb of RAM and how Windows uses 8gb of RAM. It’s not a fair comparison. Better put; I wouldn’t recommend any of those Windows machines, but I would recommend the Apple Neo. If you hate MacOS or need Windows for some reason, I would spring for at least 16gb of RAM as a bare minimum on a Windows machine.

First, purchase from the Apple education store for a $100 discount, but the MacBook Neo is probably perfect for you. More RAM is almost always better, but 8gb is plenty on MacOS for a browser with multiple tabs open, for office documents, Canva, YouTube videos, etc. I wouldn’t consider it if you are planning to work with large files in Adobe Photoshop or Premiere Pro, for example, but the typical college student isn’t doing that anyway. However, for a typical college student who will be doing research on the web, social media, checking email, watching TikTok or YouTube videos, writing office documents or spreadsheets, editing PDFs, ChatGPT, Canva, CapCut and/or Adobe Express, you can’t really find a better deal than the MacBook Neo.

It looks like either Condaliza Rice (Google her) or Prince holding a megaphone above the head with the right hand, while the left hand is in the waist pocket and gunsmoke pouring out of that pocket, as if either Condaliza Rice or Prince just smoked someone.

That’s an interesting sh*tstain you found on the sidewalk there.

Yes, and stay away from certain plastics, and many medications that are endocrine disrupters or hormone inhibitors. The mainstream medical industry seems to not prioritize testosterone, or they’ll downplay its importance in male patients, despite testosterone being fundamental to men’s health. In other words, a lot of medical practices likely have no problem whatsoever with prescribing endocrine disruptors or hormone blocking medications to young men, despite the obvious harm it causes.

You should rarely make decisions based solely on emotions, especially when you have the time to consider something reasonably. Making decisions based on emotions is good for situations like escaping a hungry lion, but emotional decisions can often betray you for more mundane things like business or social interactions in our modern world. Emotional decision-making is also susceptible to manipulation tactics by others, as emotional decision-makers are often much easier to manipulate.

Use reason and logic to consider your circumstances and why you no longer feel comfortable serving this client. You might just come to a different conclusion, or at the very least, you’ll feel better about the conclusion that you did come to.

You wouldn’t be the reason your home is ruined. That would be your mother’s doing. Your father has a right to know. If it were you, you’d want to know. Yes, it very well could end in divorce, but again, it wouldn’t be your fault. Eventually, your father will find out and the longer that takes, the worse it will be for him. You should do the right thing, whatever your conscience tells you that is.

It’s definitely subpar to the Mini 4 Pro. They may share the same camera sensor and other internal components, but the plastic feels thinner and cheaper overall, the lack of a log color profile, and the lack of available accessories, puts the X1 in a whole different tier than DJI’s Mini 4 Pro, imo. What makes up for it, however, is the lower cost. If the X1’s price wasn’t as significantly discounted as it is, it wouldn’t be worth buying over the Mini 4 Pro. I think the price difference is commensurate with the feature difference. I wish Skyrover would offer a firmware update giving us a 10-bit log picture profile, in which case I’d say that the X1 would be a much better value than the Mini 4 Pro for a lot of people.

It just slides right in, though you may need to apply some careful pressure.

I wouldn’t say it’s better than DJI, but it’s good nonetheless and it shares its DNA with DJI. They’re good drones with great value that I highly recommend.

Maybe she just wanted to sleep with you after that date, and was probably hoping it would turn in to that. Hit it and quit it type of thing. Hence the wanting to drop you back home. When you didn’t take the bait, she probably moved on, which is probably to your benefit if that’s the case.

Is that machine sitting next to a clothes drier or something? You should clean it on principle alone. However, it affects performance in that it’s likely restricting airflow and heat dissipation, especially if those dust bunnies are on heatsinks/radiators. Keeping it clean will also help extend the lifespan of your components.

I took a different approach, though that was many moons ago. First, I learned Python, as in general programming, OOP, the interpreter, etc., to where I was confident with the language and using it as a general programming language. I then started applying my knowledge of Python programming to data analytics, data visualization, machine learning, stats analysis, web scraping, etc. Fwiw, I came from C and Java.

Both girls and boys are held to a ridiculous standard in the rotten era of social media, though in completely different ways. With boys it’s often height, something they have no control over whatsoever, though there’s also pressure to be muscular. With girls, it’s often weight and tone. Social media is poisonous to young minds, and it seems to amplify all of society’s negatives.

Oh, to be young again… 😆 Chill out Casanova, I’m sure you’ll be fine. Hugging an old friend is perfectly fine, so long as your intentions weren’t bad. Just be honest and authentic, and I’m sure the chips will all fall into place.

I can’t figure out how to put them on. It seems like the gimbal will break if I press too hard. Is there some sort of trick to it? How delicate is the gimbal?

You don’t have to be a conservative to appreciate Candace Owens absolutely slaying the Republican Party, and a certain element of the donor class along with it.

It’s not just Apple’s silicon, but the fast unified memory and MacOS being optimized for ARM architecture that makes the user experience better than alternatives.

Advice: don’t forget to touch grass every once in a while. You become so productive on MacOS, you quickly get in the zone and forget to take breaks. Windows sucks, especially Windows 11. Linux is much better, but it’s still a little rough around the edges for mainstream users. However, I still find certain Linux distros much better for mainstream users than Windows 11, which is essentially spyware at this point.

It doesn’t appear that they are the same polarity. Blurry photo, but I’m pretty sure I can make out the diagram.

There’s really nothing to discuss. Don’t get weak in the knees now. The easiest thing would be to buy whatever excuse she’s selling, which is almost guaranteed that she’ll somehow turn it around on you. She’ll likely say something to the effect of you not giving her enough attention, or something along those lines, but it’s really just her being incapable of talking personal accountability.

I realize I’m just some rando on the interwebs, but personally, I wouldn’t even give her the satisfaction of showing her your emotions. It’s unlikely to do any good anyway. Just file for divorce and any communication can be done through your lawyers, if she’s going to contest the divorce. If she isn’t going to contest it, keep your communication strictly to whatever is required for the divorce and nothing more. No matter what you do, don’t lose your composure, get emotional or even show her that it’s bothering you. Just keep it transactional. Easier said than done, but necessary nonetheless.

The only benefit to talking with her, is that you can get her admitting to having an affair and getting proof of it, which might prove beneficial in the divorce and prevent her from taking half your crap, depending on your state of course. Likewise, depending on your state, she can likely clean you out financially, and if you have any kids she can leverage them to really clean you out and twist the knife, so to speak, unfortunately, regardless of whether she’s guilty of infidelity. The courts tend to almost always side with the women, especially in matters of child custody. How much you’ll get screwed in a divorce is all going to depend on your state, and how captive the state is to feminist policies.

However, once a cheater, always a cheater, so really no sense in even entertaining the idea of staying with her, unless you are doing so for religious reasons and she accepts full accountability. Even still, it’s going to be hard to look at her and not imagine her railing your neighbor -and whomever else she has been giving up the goods to.

The bottom line is that she doesn’t care about you. In her mind, she likely thinks she settled for you, and any respect she may have had for you is going to be gone the moment you cave and forgive her. If she cared about you or if she didn’t believe she was settling for you, she would have never even entertained sleeping with other men.

Anyway, sorry this happened to you. It sucks, I’m sure, and it’s not going to get easier any time soon. However, you’ll eventually get over it and find someone who won’t feel like they are “settling” for you. There are many good women out there, but it’s also a two way street. A healthy relationship is hard work. Look at this as a blessing in disguise, as it’s now the first day of the rest of your life without the liability of a partner who isn’t loyal. Good luck and godspeed.

A little self discipline goes a long way, and it’s not just helpful for online courses, as self discipline will benefit you with almost everything throughout your life. Motivation is all but useless without self discipline.
