I worked with a woman who'd just gotten off meth. She swore that she got sick more often while clean because... meth was made out of cold medicine.

What part of the country are you in? You mention being in an at-will state, so I assume the US. Maybe the Lemmyverse can help you find a job?

Always was.

I don't know. My dad is only slightly more interesting than a stack of punch cards, and I love him for that.

Show us the hands! Willie, in the public domain, doesn't wear gloves. Mickey, still Disney IP, does wear gloves.

I've done my fair share of distro hopping. Mint is the distribution that I have to do the least amount of configuring starting from a clean install.

The best thing I ever did with home automation and children is to setup motion sensors in the hallway and tie it to my WLED strips. If anyone in the house leaves a bedroom at night, led light strips in the hallway, along the stairs, and downstairs turn on low and red for 5 minutes. There's no turning on lights or forgetting to turn them off. It's bright enough to see but not so bright that is jarring. Also, using red light doesn't kill your night vision when you go back to a dark room.

Something worth noting is that F-Droid is both an app to download other apps but they also maintains a repository of apps. You can use alternative store apps (like Droid-ify) with the F-Droid repository OR you could use the F-Droid app with a different repository (like IzzyOnDroid). You can mix and match to meet your needs.

I use the Droid-ify app with the F-Droid, IzzyOnDroid, microG, NewPipe, and Collabora repositories.

Once you start down this rabbit hole, give Obtanium a look.

I'm a big fan of Droid-ify.

There is safety there, but you're just as safe using the the developer's own repository for their apps, like NewPipe, Collabora, or the Guardian Project.
