Maintaining and making new friends when everyone seems to be having kids? in c/childfree@lemmy.world

[–] TwigletSparkle@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 1 month ago

You seem to be in a situation where your current friends will be less available, leaving you more room for additional friends!

Find or continue a hobby (on your own or with your partner), meet some people, make some new friends.

Also, don't abandon your current friends. Keep talking to them, remembering their birthdays, etc. Keep trying to do stuff together, but just respect that their schedule will be heavily restricted and do your best to work with that.

Your parent friends can focus so much on how the kids are doing, that having someone who cares about how they are doing is also extremely valuable; be that friend!

Is "disk" just a different spelling of "disc" or are they actually different words? in c/lemmyshitpost@lemmy.world

Everything on the left is a drive, but only half of them are disks:

Hard Disk Drive

USB pen drive

Floppy Disk Drive

Solid State Drive

This is from Hard Disk Drive (HDD), which is a Hard Drive with a Disk. Some people think the HD stands for Hard Disk, and use it incorrectly in SSD, which has no disks.
