  • I mean no one should feel its wrong to feel some way. I mean as long as your feelings are not leading to hurting people or something. We are all different and you know we very different with out things. I had very few relationships before marriage so there is a bit more intentionality and significance to them. I had friends who started dating in high school and heck maybe junior high and grade school and almost was always in one. These are like the hey do you want to be my girlfriend/boyfriend, ok. type thing. So I really think its going to depend on the individual. Im one of those people who think its good to feel sad sometimes and thats ok but its also good to feel good or excited. I do think I would feel sadder knowing someone I had been in a realtionship was not sad though. Then I would be wondering if I was bad.



  • I mean first? Generally pretty sad but most did not even go very long or very far. I was pretty nerdy but I did some dating in high school so. Even after that. I mean I broke up with some and it was still sad. You want(ed) it to work. I can’t see a scenario where I would decide to be in a relationship and not be sad when it ended. That said you can also be excited to be out and about looking although I find I need time before that happens.



  • Im going to go out on a limb and assume you are from the us. us healthcare is nuts. Here is the funny thing. My wife has thyroid issues. Her bloodtests shows it within normal but on the low end. Doctor refuses to raise her cheap thyroid medicine and instead insists on a gpl. Even though she has other symptoms for low thyroid. insurance we had did pay for it. it makes no fucking sense. at times we can’t get stuff we need and at others we are given options we don’t want. A similar thing is there is this pretty cheap procedure called prp where they draw blood and centrifuge it down and dake the serum and inject it in a joint and it seems to relieve pain and does so for awhile. Like she could just get it once a year. They would not cover that but they did at one time. It kinda was based around what medicare was doing. They will pay for surgery that from our experinece may or may not make it better and may make it worse (we have more experience with surgery than anyone would want to have). That surgery is so expensive that if you were to stick the cost into a savings account it would easily make interest enough to do the prp. So even economics wise the insurance company should do the prp. Why don’t they. Because its like a game of chicken. people may get surgery but it does not always go well so many people will not get it. Also prp is done in the doctors office and does not require anything. They will pay for things from drug companies injected into the joint. We have just the worst system. Also you know why your insurance covers some things but not others? Some high muckity muck at your company want something. We had one that did unlimited chiro. Im like 100% the president or one of his family must get chiro adjustments every week or something. Either that or someone between the president and the hr level that decides on what insurance to use.



  • So I think a lot of things that are more important to security is perfectly doable in linux. I think there might be distros that don’t have a firewall on by default but I don’t think its common. If you go with most any recommended distros people throw out it will. Linux and other unixes had this available and default way before windows did. Honestly the only thing linux kinda lacks is antivirus although thats not completely so. I will say that outside of windows integrated antivirus I stopped using them in windows. Running a secure browser and being careful about what you download and run in windows is a much bigger thing for security. Again linux had sudo type things (the admin privleges window pops up with) than windows did. Which is a much bigger security thing. To top it all off you can get most software for linux through repos which are curated and safer way to get software. It can be tempting to download a piece of software not available but if you can add a credible repo its not a bad idea to do it that way. I mean linux and other unixes are just engineered in a better more secure manner. Coming from windows and worrying about linux security is like coming from a really cirme ridden neighborhood and moving a nice low crime area but your afraid its going to have more crime later.









  • Im not big on bettering myself as an independent activity. Like I have done the gym thing but I prefer to use a standing desk, get around by walking or biking. Try to have time to enjoy walking my dog and do things like bring the mail to neighbors. Find ways to be active. Similarly I don’t use smartphones and will do deep breathing semi mediation when waiting but also might take in the sights and sounds around me or if literature is available and seems decent will read through it. When shopping I double check the per unit costs because they can be wrong or just to use a common unit when they liste them differently to get the best deal. I play games like suduko and now clues by sam. might start doing brackets. I take advantage of opportunities like splunk having some hands on sessions for free lately. Work on my personal technology. I just get more like this the older I get. Its hard enough keeping up with everything. Honestly im kinda always like this. I hate doing something and just getting one thing out of it. The more I can accomplish kinda passively the better.
