I remember calling into the radio station and requesting a song. And then sitting around with friends waiting to hit record on our boombox!

I just installed Linux two nights ago! I tried Mint but it wouldn't install because of RST being enabled. I didn't feel comfortable trying to disable it, I was afraid I'd break something. I installed OpenSuse Tumbleweed and it went smoothly! It's been fun being on linux. I customized the theme, downloaded some updates and got Steam working. My only issue is booting into it. I have to boot into windows, restart holding shift and then boot to USB SSD from there. My next goal is getting a boot screen that will allow me to pick Linux or Windows drive.

Loving the app! I'm having trouble swiping away media. It doesn't feel sensitive enough and usually takes me several swipes. I've enabled the tap to close which works amazingly but muscle memory wants to swipe.

Recommendation/Hope: it would be amazing to have a media peek where I can tap and hold on a thumbnail and it enlarges the picture. Awesome app, thanks!

Our mortgage is $2600 month. My wife has a much better paying job than me. I make $2200 a month after taxes/deductions. She is currently going through cancer treatments and although everything is looking positive it really got me thinking about what the hell does life look like for my family if something happens to my wife?

I've had the same bus driving job for 23 years. I'm undereducated. A 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment is $1600 month here. I don't know how I'd ever be able to take care of myself and two kids.

They want us to have 80k+ in school debt so you can be allowed to have mortgage debt or rent and own nothing. I don't know where I'm going with this but I'm just bummed out about life right now.

My favorite all time is The Count of Monte Cristo, 2002. My Cousin Vinny is my favorite feel good movie.

Jerboa for browsing everything. And then Slide while at work because I disabled NSFW in Slide.
