With chocolate milk i have always just added a small amount of boiling water to the powder and swished it round the cup. not with a spoon, just hold the cup at the top and swing it round in small circles and use centrifugal force to mix it (obviously dont swing it too hard or it will leave yo cup and burn your hand) then add the cold milk to the top. Never had clumps.

But I will try this.

She doesn’t love me. :p

Not many people get it until they get one. I got a fold 3 when it came out and have just upgraded to a fold 6 because i just couldn’t go back. Its a better form factor for a mobile computing device. Its a phone thats also a small tablet! I gave my old one to my wife who was always averse to getting a fold and she has told me multiple times since then that its her favourite phone shes ever had.

That’s what i am saying. You need to learn it. If someone explains it to you, then you are learning. If someone gives you the answer, then you dont understand it, so you are less good at said something.

You agree with me…

Because AI and previously google searches are not a substitute for having knowledge and experience. You can learn by googling something and reading about how something works so you can figure out answers for yourself. But googling for answers will not teach you much. Even if it solves a problem, you won’t learn how. And won’t be able to fix something in the future without googling th answer again.

If you dont learn how to do something, you won’t be experienced enough to know when you are doing it wrong.

I use google to give me answers all the time when im problem solving. But i have to spend a lot more time after the fact to learn why what i did fixed the problem.

That’ll do it 😀

Depemds if you are logged i to google services on your phone and on you pc browser. If you log into anything google on your browser it retains that log in across all the apps

Also, back then, and up until the late 00s, you bought albums, singles were a thing and plenty popular, but mainly if you liked a band you bought their album.

The beatles hit number 1 for 90% of their studio albums.

You mentioned it turns out you have ADHD (turns out so do i) and that you began medication for that and it reads that this medication began at around the same time as you started on nicotine again.

I am inclined to ask the question. Do you think perhaps you are associating the effects of the ADHD treatment to nicotine use?

There certainly are some documented benefits to nicotine use. And much of what you say is verifiable. However, many of the benefits you describe can be associated with the treatment of ADHD aswell.

I accept i dont know your personal situation. I only read your comment and noticed the timing seemed to be a bit close.

On the subject of vaping, i personally experienced some sticky phlegm and trouble coughing this up as well as issues with lung capacity and the dependance on the nicotine made me extremely irritable and unable to concentrate until i vaped.

Also it takes longer than a few months to break a nicotine addiction. I still uphold the idea that there may have been some withdrawal going on there.

However i am happy to conceed the point if you genuinely disagree. As i said i have no idea about your personal situation.

Would i wrong to venture the guess that you didnt like quitting vaping because you were suffering from nicotine withdrawal? I swapped to vaping after years of smoking and eventually quit vaping. It was not enjoyable to quit but i feel a million times better not being beholden to the habit. My lungs feel better, my brain feels better, my stress levels are lower.

What benefits does nicotine bring other than satifyi g your craving for nicotine.

The trough of disillusionment sounds like my former depression. The slope of enlightenment sounds like a really frun water slide.

So what you are saying is, it’s just as Risc-E

But for what reason?

I love this

Its very socialist. So i like it.

Yes, i said that, that one point was more about making it cost less so its affordable.

What’s the endgame here for users?

Do we just want a reasonable subscription price? Something we can genuinely afford?

If youtube doesn’t play ads then they cant remain a service. At least not as it is today. Hosting costs money.

Im not shilling for them, i dont want ads either. And google are a terrible company. But im trying to be realistic.

Do we want cheap subscription?

Or a reduced service that can be maintained without so many ads

Do we just want 5 second skippable ads back?

Im just seeing this fight progressing to the point were youtube becomes subscription only and the ad blocker users have to pay or lose the service they obviously want to access.

It could be a cheesey quip, like the shit the good guys say in actio films when they kill the bad guys.

“'Consider this an official act… of kickin your ass!”

Movie is called

Mount Killmore

I dont think it’s unique to the US, companies in other countries have to play the same game or be lost to obscurity.

Why dont these companies accept theybarent worth as much any more and just provide less services until they balance off.

The stuff they cant afford to provide could be taken on by someone else. Being a one company does all type master of none sort of thing is clearly bad for society and the economy.

I dont really know what im talking about but i just dont get why they see losses and an end to growth but take the position of “we need to find a way to keep this going” instead of “we need to sell off things until our company is making money again, even if its less money”
