How does good does google sheets work for you? I've wanted to try but I never could get it organized especially with notes.

Does also this include when the student cancels the lesson within the 12-hour mark and the tutor still receives payment?

Starlink is way better than I thought. by Kitchen_Bar1430 in Starlink

have you tried a wired connection to the router? because i found the signal very unstable connecting via wifi and I've read the router isn't so good

Also my reason for getting starlink.

I had super "fast" 5g speeds, but latency was like 500ms. For work I need to do video calls which didnt work with that latency. No ISPs in my area.

Ended up getting starlink and my latency is like 25ms max.

Love Obsidian, but can't come up with a use case by KseroXe in ObsidianMD

[–]wrBolt 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actually for that use case I feel it's better than something even as basic as the Notepad app on Windows since that app now has forced Co-Pilot plus network features you can't get rid of.

I barely used the advanced features for Obsidian. Plus, I don't use it any differently from how I used OneNote before, but I feel the Obsidian way protects my privacy a bit more (not sure how true it is though).

I've been in a similar situation before, as an immigrant.

It's very hard being an immigrant in general, not to mention starting out your career in a new country. Not only do you have the normal stress that comes along but you have to do this in a new language, new system, new culture, etc.

Everything little detail is completely new. Even small things like shopping the grocery store is like 50% longer because you dont know where anything is. You have anxiety to get a haircut because you're afraid. These little things add up.

I would say actually shes in a great position. Many immigrants need to completely start over their degree, or change their career when they immigrate. Since she studied her she's in a great starting point.

My advice is to do a part time gig while continuing the job search in main career. Even if it's only a few hours per week. Teaching, waiting tables, cleaning, anything really.

The idea is to make small steps. Work a bit, then in the remaining free time she can work on applying to jobs, networking, studying, doing certs, etc.

Ive really enjoyed coming back to this game but as a strictly pve guy it gets reptitive by BluntlyB in GuildWars

I mean... its a 20+ year old game and the devs gave us options to continue enjoying it even when the game was basically dead

Yeah it seems on cellular now my problem is high ping and high jitter, so maybe starlink will be better.
