yuuuuuup

if I choose to actually get up when I wake up naturally at the right point in the sleep cycle but it's 17 minutes before I want to wake up, I'm sure awake in a second or two

if I choose to ignore that and go back to sleep for 23 minutes, then it takes a few minutes to fully wake up nowadays

if my dog is standing on my chest making a hoarking sound, I'm out of bed on my way out the bedroom door yelling at her to follow me before the other one even gets up

lol

they just keep piling on justifications for switching away

yeah I usually go work out while it's running lol, or do some yardwork or something

rely? no

find it a useful assist? yes

the Roomba can:

• get under couches that my other vacuums cannot

• deal with 90% of the average mess (dog hair and miscellaneous crumbs) without my input

• pick up the little bits that you can never manage to sweep into a dust pan

• do this within about 10-20% of the time it would take me to do it myself

things it cannot do:

• vacuum carpets

• get into corners

• deal with large messes

typically, I will sweep crumbs and crap out of corners into the middle of a room. I do this all the way around this level of the house in under two minutes, which includes picking up the large clumps of fluffy dog hair that have accumulated along the walls and tossing them in the garbage and putting the broom back. I can then run the Roomba, and the only thing left to do after is brush/vacuum the carpets & rugs well.

I also like the mopbot thingy because that definitely takes less time than doing it myself

you are being oppressed. do not resist us. you will be freed from your oppression.

*I grew up similarly to you

that's an excellent move

stuff like this makes a real strong case for taking guns away from everybody

I did it for six months straight around 7-8 years ago, and then on and off as required since.

I was fine with it when I was enjoying work and my work had variety in it - I could do my regular day with a bit of OT in the office, then go build stuff with my hands for a few hours in the shop.

At another job after that, 60s were more difficult because it was work from home, but I still did them as required because I could set my own schedule for the OT and half the time I was drinking and gaming simultaneously (some of the tasks required me to do something and wait on the computer to do compute). But still, the variety of work was key - I had to be able to change tasks and spend at least 10 hours on something that was interesting and different.

A 60 hour work week is stupid, imo. It takes up far too much of your personal time. Like anything, you can do it for a period of time, but it isn't sustainable as it starts to eat into other aspects of your life.

It's taken me nearly a year to transition away from a 50 hour standard week and constantly feeling like I should be working more. I had to learn how to just sit at home and do nothing, like drinking a coffee watching dawn come for ten minutes uninterrupted.

idk just sharing my experience. summary is that it's possible short term if you enjoy it, but you need specific circumstances to be met. I was lucky my job gave me autonomy and flexibility, it wouldn't have worked otherwise. and obviously I got paid overtime, I'm not working for free. and at both jobs I felt like I was appropriately compensated. I quit the first job when they stopped compensating me appropriately. I toned down the extra work at the second in the same situation.

*I want to add that in recent years I've done the 50-hour standard week because I thought the trade-off was worth it - I was being compensated fairly, getting regular wage increases, enjoyed the work environment, and it allowed me to afford a house comfortably enough (never mind that housing shouldn't cost this much). I knew I was making a couple years of sacrifice to set myself up for the following decade at this company. Even if the work environment is worse now, I still prefer this to commuting to another job with less flexibility and autonomy.

mate you can't do 60s in this situation, that's a no-children person's game

how could you tell?

lol

okay, hear me out - sure, the apps need to be removed from the app store

why can't people just install them separately anyways?

dude my win10 install at work has been getting seemingly exponentially more glitchy in the past month or two. it seems intentional at this point
