I have a huge number of content filters, basically stopping just short of blocking the words "left" and "right" but trying to block everything else political.

What I wish I could find a way to do is pick by post language - I have nothing against a user/community, I just don't speak (usually) German.

Now...is this legal to show in public or not?

I had a 3 day paddling adventure planned but a partner with the sniffles and way more rain than called for had other ideas. Now it's VR, sewing, make soup and a shorter day trip when it clears up on Sunday.

When google asked if I wanted to try Gemini I gave it a try and the first time I asked it to navigate home, something I use assistant for almost daily, it said it can't access this feature but we can chat about navigating home instead - fuck that!

Even though I switched back to assistant it's still getting dumber and losing functionality - yesterday is asked it to add something to my grocery list(in keep) and it put it on the wrong list, told me the list I wanted doesn't exist, then asked if I wanted to create the list and then told me it can't create it because it already exists.

I've talk to more logical toddlers!

The first wedding I ever attended was my own...and I was 35. I somehow had friends & family who didn't get or were already married my entire life.

Still never been to a birth or a funeral.

It really depends on what I'm doing to elicit the comment - I'm often doing silly things, getting enthusiastic about stuff, exploring my environment and other things vaguely "childish" and so would consider cute to be a compliment.

Coming with no context it's neutral, way better than being called sexy but generally my appearance doesnt need comment.

If I'm upset, or being professional, or an authority than being called cute is 100% and insult.

It's okay to be curious about the world - wanting to understand is not the same thing as wanting to judge or prevent.

I pull my card out to tap, though it's just habit from pre-tap and I probably wouldn't need to. I leave NFC off on my phone or it tends to keep detecting my cc and chime.

1. Friends girlfriend lent me her hiking shoes when I picked him up to go hiking having forgotten mine.

2. Payment was down at a hardware store and the manager just let me walk out with the $7 of screws I needed to finish my project that day

My EDC is

1. A pixel phone with a case on it, in the case I tuck my driver's licence and one credit card. I have a wallet app on the phone for all other cards I might need.

2. Keychain is a carabiner and short piece of webbing holding 2 house keys, car fob, mini knife and mini flashlight.

The keys clip onto bra strap and go inside my shirt and phone tucks into bra. Definitely not a fella :P

I've never tried to have what I would call a conversation, but I use it as a tool for both fixing/improving writing and for writing basic scripts in autohotkey, which it's fairly good at.

It's language models are good for removing the emotional work from customer service - either giving bad news in a very detached professional way or being polite and professional when what I want is to call someone a fartknocker.

You can 3D print containers that fit all kind of juice/pop/milk lids. They can be any height, but my favorite are the ones that nest almost perfectly inside giving you one bottlecap worth of storage (perfect for pills or sim/sd cards).

I've had my printer for 6 months and still get a kick out of this.
