    Earning from Browsers

    Is Swagbucks what pays you to search? - I only get paid in terms of points on bing searches via Microsoft Rewards. I trade these points for xbox gift cards when I have enough. I used to use searchlotto where they give you lottery tickets for searches but never won anything on those tickets.

    What anti-virus do you use?

    Do they actually get rid of viruses/malware/etc or just quarantine?

    What Socials are you on?

    I tried appealing but it didn't work. I have 16 days left on the ban. It's annoying as I use my account to keep in touch with family. At least messenger isn't banned.

    Favourite Forum Software

    Zetaboards had an awful admin panel. As does Tapatalk. Incredibly complicated just to do simple things. My forum was on zetaboards and got moved to tapatalk. We were promised tapatalk with zetaboard things. Never did get that. Tapatalk has it's pros - gold points can be exchanged for cash...

    Favourite Forum Software

    Free - proboards but unfortunately it's run by some not very nice people who will remove your forum without due cause. As well as insult you and treat you like you're beneath them. Paid - XenoForo but I've never had the privelege of owning one.

    Reading...?

    I read for fun (fiction) and learning (non fiction) if it's on a subject that interests me. I've been reading "You are not so smart" by David McRaney.

    Marijuana: Should it be legal?

    Only for medicinal use imo. It's addictive and has side effects like increased risk of heart attack, reduced spatial awareness, etc. Plus it's often a gateway drug.

    Nintendo Switch

    I would like one but can't afford it. Far to pricey atm. I want it mainly for Pokemon and Animal Crossing.

    How often do you get a new phone?

    Very rarely. I only had to get a new phone this year as my old one stopped working (stays on boot loop when I turn it on) and then my backup phone stopped working too.

    What Socials are you on?

    A Facebook account - which got banned for 30 days for posting a wikipedia link so had to make a spare. A twitter account (one personal and one I use for my forum). A parler account for my forum. I have Instagram and TikTok accounts but only to follow certain users. Don't post on them.

    Air Conditioning or Naww?

    I can't sleep without fans on at least. Air con on very hot days. Even in winter I have fans on. I get hot flushes regularly and heat up really quickly in general.

    Air Conditioning or Naww?

    Air flow is ok. I don't know if I can get mine looked at as it's a free standing unit that has a pipe going out the window. There's an small air con shop in my town but unfortunately they don't do standalone air con fixing.

    What anti-virus do you use?

    Just basic one that came with OS. I want to get an all in one program but no idea what is any good. My laptop really needs a good one as it's full of issues that need fixing.

    Air Conditioning or Naww?

    I have one but I've had it for quite some time now so it's not as good as it used to be. It also has a habit of producing ice on the vents sometimes.

    Mandatory Face Coverings on Public Transport

    I've not seen many people wearing masks (not even hanging around the neck for use in when entering shops) when I've been out walking the dog despite any orders. I had to wear one to go into the vets and it was awful. Was sweating inside it. Couldn't breathe well in it either.

    Webcams

    I used to use one regularly when I was younger but haven't used one in years. Barely go on my laptop in general anyway.

    Pranks - what's your best one?

    I don't think I've ever pranked someone. Well not that I can remember. I did mix up several condiments in a drink as a child once and tried to get my mum's friends to drink it. Don't know if that counts as a prank though.
