I am a plastic digesting mega organism apparently!

Lots of good and relevant reading here:

(Not helpful, but hilarious!)

I don’t know if I am right but I am of the opinion that Cybersecurity should be considered a mastery branch on top of basic engineering skills. But it feels like there are so many Cybersecurity experts who do not understand enough about the underlying engineering concepts to be effective in their role.

Ha, I was going to say she sounds too smart for him!

This is again just asking which movie you prefer, with extra steps!

Cook and eat good food, including liver.

This seems oddly specific for Maslow.

I am no longer a Reddit refugee, I am a Lemmy citizen!

I am not so young but I have always seen my friends once a week for the better part of my adult life. Basically we always make an effort to organise things, sometimes weeks out, sometimes it’s completely impulsive (and they don’t always work out) - from a small breakfast catch up, or a big weekend away, and everything in between!

LAN parties (showing my age).

It depends where you live, but my go-to was 24 hr cafes and other food places, but there are also other activities like late night fishing, long drives (or rides), night photography, etc

Lemmy was a 1 to 1 time sink replacement for Reddit for me so not a lot has changed!

Relay for Reddit - but I am guessing the move to the paid subscription is due any day now.

No, but I still very occasionally check it but only every couple of days for the niche communities, but only because my reddit app of choice still works - but as soon as it stops I will not miss it.

I use Apple devices for work and although their hardware and software are reasonably well refined, I would never choose to use them for my personal devices as long as they continue their anti consumer walled garden approach.

If my router drops packets on the rug, should I rub their WAN port in it?

A tiny bit of sugar free cordial is my go to, mainly as it gives it a hint of flavour without diluting the bubbles too much!
