    What do you use your iPad for?

    I am trying to justify this want and could use some additional ideas. Some that I've come up with myself: - Stream video apps (e.g. Netflix, Shudder, Prime Video, HBO Max, etc) - Manage photos - Osmo (one of my daughter's favorite apps) - Visit forums of course - Look up/use recipes - Apple...

    Stock images or real photos?

    I am helping my employer revamp our brand/website. We're working with a company that is doing most of the leg work. The first draft they published featured stock images (images of people on their laptop etc) and my boss wasn't a fan and is thinking that getting professional shots of our...

    Do you play board games?

    I love to play Chess, Scrabble, and Monopoly but I don't have too many friends who like to play those games with me.

    What's a good build budget for me?

    My husband spent around $2000 for ours. I think it would help to start with what software programs are you looking to use and look at their minimum required specs. Then take a look at the parts that you need to build based around those requirements and get the best hardware you can afford.

    Getting ready for work

    Getting ready for work consist of me taking a shower, brushing my hair and teeth and applying moisturizer and getting dressed before clocking in so... 30 minutes tops I'd say.

    Using cash

    I withdraw around $60-$80 per month from the ATM and I treat it like play money, once it's out it's out until the next month. I spend it on various things, gifts, tip, spontaneous purchases really.

    Do you think long distant relationships have a chance?

    @Laifot Yes that is risky. I've heard success stories however in my opinion more often than not they don't work because of the logistics. Relationships are difficult and if they're not it probably means that the couple aren't going deep enough into the things that matter most to them. If there...

    Your bedroom door

    Not away or towards, my bed faces the same wall as the door but not directly towards the door if that makes sense. I've been raised with the superstition that it's bad luck to have my feet facing directly a door.

    What happened to COVID?

    It's definitely still around. People just aren't as hyped about it with this Ukrainian/Russia war taking over headlines. Now it's going to be about gas prices and stock markets - basically topics that will grab people's attention because that's what it's about right? Selling papers and...

    Lab grown meat

    I would if there are no other options. Molecularly it's fine right? Same cell structure, nutrients, etc... in many ways it can even be better as those options may be more sustainable/better for the environment etc. It's just a strange concept to eat something that grew from the ground or an animal.

    Do you think long distant relationships have a chance?

    My now husband and I were only dating for about 3 months when he joined the military. So a lot of our relationship was long distance. However, we stuck it out and made it a point to see and speak with each other as often as we were able. We did that for about 2 years and lived together about 6...

    Cutting back on Social Media

    I think it's somewhat still on topic ;) I can totally relate and Facebook definitely does that. I have to go through a security prompt in order to access it via the browser which is one additional step to do but eh, it discourages my usage so that's actually a good thing since I'm trying to cut...

    Android -> iOS

    It's been YEARS since I've had an Android device. I don't remember it being an issue. Once I switched to Apple I did not look back. There are times when I find myself wondering what it would be like own a Galaxy again and with all of the other options but I just love the simplicity of the...

    Cutting back on Social Media

    Yes turning off the alerts definitely helped me. I went ahead and deleted the app from my phone just to remove temptation.

    Headphones vs Earbuds:

    It depends on what I'm doing while listening to music. If my 4 year old is around I like to listen to music without headphones just so I can make sure to be able to hear her at all times. If I'm working out, I prefer ear buds. If I'm winding down for the evening or if I'm working I like the...
