  • Same, only a handful from a jar on the coffee table and I don’t remember tasting anything resembling cannabis, but apparently they were medicated and each was a dose. Not sure how that’s possible. It’s just what I remember.

    I was told I became exceptionally good with children, reading them stories, conversing with them, discussing simple emotions and how to handle them. These are not things I’m naturally good at. But the trade-off was I became useless at pretty much everything else.

    Of course I’d never deliberately test the hypothesis of childcare proficiency but the best explanation I could come up with in hindsight was temporarily elevated patience and/or speaking more simply or slowly. But I’m not sure, because I don’t have kids.


















  • If you don’t like command line interfaces, you could try UniGetUI (formerly WingetUI) which is an open source aggregator for multiple package management ecosystems.

    Last I checked it included winget, chocolatey, direct-from-GitHub releases, and a lot of developer-oriented solutions like NuGet, pip, pyenv, nvm, npm, rvm, and the like.

    If you must use Windows for something, at least you can avoid using Microsoft Store and Edge. And if you have the inclination, you can use that list of installations with an AME Wizard playbook to rapidly provision a Windows machine (virtual or otherwise) which makes the all but inevitable “format-and-reinstall” task painless.

    TLDR: you can just use it as an automated installer, kind of like Ninite from back in the day, but it can do a lot more than that. Actually kind of jealous this sort of universal aggregator doesn’t exist in unix systems yet.
