I have my Teams status at work permanently set to https://nohello.net/en/. It's not the women who ignore it; it's a certain culture, which includes almost all of our customer support staff. They send me a "hi" and then they are happy to wait for the entire day for an answer they never get.

"Farther". May have been a simple typo.

And as a father, I can confidentry say that a paper airplane that's tightly scrunched into a ball flies the farthest in our household.

Insta360 does the same. I downloaded the app, registered the camera, and deleted the app. On my kid's tablet; my phone is too old for the app. If GoPro only requires such a rudimentary registration, it's a matter of 5 extra minutes. Now, if they require the app for transferring videos, that's a whole different problem...

That's me, today. Different brands and models, but pretty much the same items. If I have the space (inner coat pockets, for example), I also add a small notepad and pencil, and a calculator. I ain't gonna pay for a HP-12C calculator app, when I have the fully functional hardware.

Mid to late 90s. I was never big into chewing gum, and took a stick out of politeness when someone offered.

We have a beautiful living room that seats a dozen people. Nobody ever goes there. The entire family and guests prefer to squeeze around the 6-person kitchen table or lean against the kitchen counter. And we like it that way.

The Austrian Green Veltliner is one of the few wines I always have to have at home.

One word: Papyrus

I fail to see why China should be compelled to help with the Straight. If it's in their interest to do so, they will, but if there is a more price effective alternative for them, they'd take that one. The same goes for every nation.

Reminder that the name of the music group Counting Crows can be interpreted as "Murder by Numbers".

I only win imaginary arguments with people I never met, but even those are entirely silent.

Here's something that will probably mark me as weird: I find it strange, even creepy, when people talk, sing, hum, or make any noises to themselves. Some people tell me it helps their concentration, but I can't even envision making any kind of sound when I concentrate.
