Nah, they know their limits. They will keep trying to make an optional locked down OS for regular users a thing, but there will always be a fully “unlocked” version available due to legacy software and the entire worlds reliance on it.
As you get less time you quickly learn to stop inviting people like that, as it’s not worth your time chasing them. If they want to see you they will reach out and make the effort. If they don’t then you have your answer.
Yeah it’s completely normal, especially because most people this age have multiple kids that take up most of their free time. People move, change jobs, die, etc and also just don’t have the time to maintain many friendships. It’s normal.
According to most studies the majority of adults have between 1-4 close friends. If you don’t make friends with workmates, even if they’re just “workday friends”, you’ve basically got a few hours on Saturday and Sunday to develop and maintain friendships, and it’s hard when everyone has commitments.
You have work colleagues? Have you tried making friends with any of them?
Have you tried doing anything to make friends in any capacity? Friends don’t just drop in your lap while you sit at home.
Also when you say your family and friends all disowned you, was there perhaps also an element of you disowning them over ideological disagreements even if some of them still wanted to remain friends?
Yeah and it’s been proper fucked for months. I set up anew server on my Mac mini M4 months ago and every now and then I spin up lidarr again to see if it is fixed and nope, won’t recognise a single album in my entire collection and can’t even manually add an artist.
Headphones is pretty terrible and slow, but it has the benefit of working.
If you use Plex it’s an absolute cinch to host your own music. Even if you don’t use Plex already it takes 5 mins to setup and you’re streaming your music to your hearts content.
The other “issue” isn’t an issue at all. Plex handles all that stuff just fine and super easily.
Microsoft are smart enough to not piss off every giant corporation and destroy their entire business overnight, so you can count on it never being forced by them.
Where as lower incomes spend the increase wages on more goods and services from other people which puts the money back in to movement and increases the number of time the money cycles through the economy.
And cause inflation.
Sigh.....
That's such a pathetic attack, and you clearly aren't smart enough to understand what people are actually talking about, nor do you even understand the immigrants that are currently coming in to australia. Grow up.
You're completely missing the point. Like way off.
Immigration isn't bad. No one is saying that it is. Immigration built this country, as people like to say over and over.
The issue is that right now, we are importing far too many people into a crumbling economy in an effort to prop it up, and for other political reasons. We are in the middle of an extreme housing affordability and availability crisis, homelessness crisis, and cost of living crisis - the LAST thing we need is MORE PEOPLE. When we already have no housing, why are we bringing in 1500 more people per day?
No one is saying stop immigration FOREVER.
So you are saying you never saw any of the conversations around the “trans book banning” and have zero idea about the books?
X to doubt.
