I pay $20/month to Claude.ai, and consequently don’t go to SO anymore.

I am so glad to be in the office.

For instance, every morning when I come in there is a person on my team that will talk about their family, their kids, their life, and that goes on for about 15 minutes. In the spirit of team building, I entertain it for awhile. But that does come with a cost.

Someone came in a few weeks ago not feeling well, but decided not to stay home. Ended up having covid and spread it to others. It's hard to be productive when half the team is out sick.

Every day I have to be in the office with others, I truly hate it. The pandemic was hard, but I absolutely miss being able to work from home every day.

"I certainly would not have a child with anyone who has been jabbed"

LOL, OK.

"or has testicular microplastics."

Again, LOL. They are everywhere.

I was going to replace my kid’s aging laptop this year with a Dell. But, I’m a big believer in remote work being the future.

I’m sure I will hardly send an impactful message, but dude, you’re totally not getting a Dell now.

This is just propaganda put out by Big Distilled Water.

They’ll never get my $0.99!

Over the past few years I’ve felt like Google itself is a spam attack.

I know someone who used to work for Tesla.

They said after working there and seeing how poor the quality was, they would never buy one.

Maybe I'm wrong here, but I feel like a lot of the comments are referencing the Drupal of the past, not today's Drupal.

Drupal 8, 9, 10 and beyond is quite different than what came before it.

You can easily use Drupal to create the backend for a headless CMS. It's about as simple as turning on the JSON API module that comes out of the box, and then start creating content types.

But then you're having to maintain the CMS, which isn't as appealing as using something like Contentful. It really depends on your use case (like all technologies, of course).

I’ve been waiting on Cricket since the Apple Watch came out with cellular. They don’t have a plan on when/if it will be available, which seems silly since Cricket is owned by AT&T.

But I’ll never go back to AT&T’s prices, so I guess I’m just out.

Not family wide but very personal: MacroFactor. It healed my relationship with food, and helped me lose 60 lbs. Worth every penny ($12/month subscription).

Oh man, I use that a lot.
