RCS is a really nice thing in principle, because SMS/MMS infrastructure is just awfully outdated from security standpoint.

Though, replacing SMS/MMS infrastructure which is internetless yet cross-carrier by making it a internet-first and tied to a single meta-carrier under the hood kind of defeats the purpose overall. There was an attempt to build an independent carrier-deployable implementation of RCS, yet it turned out to be bought off by Google :(

They have been for a while now. It's just that now it kind of becomes obvious

You can always keep moderate care of the property: just not too much. Forests, for example, need to be tendered, and (unexpectedly) sometimes trees have to be cut — to make more space for animals to thrive (not just humans), to other plants to grow.

I love sunflowers. Though the sunflower has the same issue of sucking the ground dry of the nutrients, you will need to keep rotating the place, otherwise it will take everything from the ground to the state that nothing will grow there for years.

This is gold, I think I should print it out and put on my desk :D

If it is a Zoom meeting, than I just allow myself to run around the room, listening to the meeting on the background.

Otherwise, if it is an in-person meeting, I do lots of things

  • watch around, try to make notes of important things
  • practice active listening, trying to validate my understanding by parahprasing statements I heard as questions to validate correctness of my understanding. Even if I can't ask them — I write them down, this also forces the muscle memory to make me recall more
  • if it is a presentation, I sometimes run further ahead, riding the content like waves — so when presenter gets to some point,

The most important thing, though, always is to accept the fact that you can miss some parts. Neurotypicals miss bits and pieces of information too — they just don't think it is a bad thing, so it is fine if you miss something, or hear something incorrectly. It is completely fine to ask to repeat something, or to get some information later by asking your colleagues.

You can always play Cossacks. It’s a game made in Ukraine, really love playing it on spare time :)

You are not in any way. I was into tech since I was a toddler, and the feeling I have right now sucks. Though, I think it is not about tech, but about things happening in the world around. The tech is just a symptom of majority people being natural morons.

There is also Vinted, which operates across EU.

Asides, in Poland Allegro Lokalne exists, which is making an attempt in the same market.

My take: Steam Deck is much better, just taking a terrible experience I've been having with ASUS laptop build, and how actually well-built the Steam Deck is.

My story is: I bought an LCD with 64 GB storage and upgraded it to 1TB, and made a few fixes already to the buttons (too hard of a player xD). And during disassembly, I was extremely happy with how it was built, because it is really simple to maintain, disassemble/assemble. Like it was actually built to last ;)

If you haven’t set a password before, then it should be the default one: empty. Then, to use sudo you will need to set one by using passwd command.

In case if the password was set in the past: the only way would be to run factory reset, or restore from image.
