Not on Home edition
You can do it on home. Takes a lot of googling and monkeying around, but I did it on my father’s computer years ago.

If you are on ios, Memmy can.
Life goes on, regardless of what the politicians say or do.
He’s a good bit older than that and has cancer, and is not able to sit at a computer long enough to learn a new operating system even if he wanted to. Which he really, really doesn’t lol. He hates the thing with the fire of a thousand burning suns and only used it for his necessaries.
I’m also not familiar with any other operating system besides windows, outside of a brief foray into pi-hole years ago that I don’t remember much about, so I’d have to learn it first. While I’d love to start playing around with Linux some day, unfortunately that day isn’t going to be any time soon.
Lucky you. I got told by our IT that I’m going to be their windows 11 sacrificial lamb and will be getting it before everyone else to bang out the quirks. It doesn’t pay to be known as the office nerd :(
My elderly father’s win 10 computer has been absolutely shoving the upgrade down his throat, and I’m about ready to give in and just do it. Telling it to stop notifying him does no good, it just comes right back the next day. Then he won’t touch the computer because the full screen upgrade ad freaks him out and he’s afraid something is wrong. Screw Microsoft.
I put it in one corner of one monitor that I hardly look at so it never appears on my main desktop monitor.
lol I did the exact same thing. That and all the unnecessary crap my work installs that I will never use but can’t even uninstall the damn shortcuts they slap on my desktop are all jammed in the corner of a monitor off to the side.
My almost 50 year old officemate watches this shit all day long. It 100% affects her negatively in a multitude of ways, including her attending span. It’s not just the kiddos.
I don’t know what in the world my officemate would do with herself if she couldn’t watch TikTok all day. Besides her actual fucking work for a change, that is.
I am so goddamn sick of hearing the same “hehe hehe” and the same fake-sounding scream-laugh that those videos all use for backgrounds/overlays that I am ready to shove an ice pick in my ears. Ban this garbage, please!
I actually know what causes most of mine, there are some nerves in my neck that get pinched/aggravated and trigger them. And for some reason, if I have multiple days in a row where I don’t get much sleep, those nerves get extra cranky. They are extra cranky right now.
I also hate it when it has a name that is a super common word or phrase. Our last 3 records management prograns at work have been like this, and their help fires are terrible to non existent. Good like trying to search the internet for information on the software with those common names. Even adding terms relevant to what the software does, didn’t help much.
(Apologies if this is terribly typed, I’ve got an impending migraine aura that stayed right as I hit reply and have lost a good chunk of my vision. I can’t see most of what I’m saying.)
“No one asked for this” should be Microsoft’s tag line. Rather than fix problems that have been around for years - decades in some cases - they just keep adding crap that no one wants or asked for.
I’ve seen a curlygirl sub, but it was pretty much dead, sadly.
YES. It’s so frustrating now. And Gboard suddenly keeps trying to turn every word I type that starts with a “p” into “poo apper”. Wtf.
Swipe was bought by Microsoft years ago, and who knows why they do what they do. The only update I’ve seen in recent memory for it was them adding Bing to the top row.
Aww, thanks. It’s ok, though. I’m getting a lot better at figuring out how not to kill my plants now and just get sad for a little while when one dies. Mostly. Lol
But it’s also hard for someone with depression, because you will kill things while you learn, and that can make you feel even more worthless and useless.
THAT SAID. If you try it and actually discover you have an interest in it, it’s a lot easier to get past the, “Fuck, I killed another one!” and slide into, “How do I not fucking kill another one?!”

CLOSE YOUR DOORS. Closed doors give you a much better chance of survival if your house catches on fire.
Oil of Olay has an in-shower body lotion/body conditioner that works better than any regular lotion I have ever used. And I’ve tried them all. You shower normally, rinse, and what I do is turn off the shower and just use my hands to swipe water off myself so I can get better coverage with the lotion. Then I start from my head and work my way down with the lotion. (Doing it this way saves on product too). When I’m done, turn the water back on and rinse off. The stuff is magical. I have to be careful of things I put on my skin due to some sensitivity issues, and I have zero problems with this. It’s stupid expensive and nearly impossible to find in stores anymore so I have to get it online, but it’s worth it. After a week of not using it, my skin is a flakey, itchy mess.
They have a version with lavendar and retinol in it now as well, but I haven’t tried that one. I just use the regular one.
And to add on to this - curly-haired people, put a silky case on your pillow. It will not snag your hair nearly as badly as a non-silky one does, which means less frizz when you get up in the morning.
Why even bother? It’s not like anything is ever done about the non-anonymous threats we currently see. Ffs.
