Living when you don't know whether someone you've become attached to is still here is a special kind of hell. You look for any trace and then blame yourself as if you've become resigned to thinking the worst but you have no way to hope for the best.

Still a little sick so not going to tackle this now but.....How do I get a good profile picture?avatar on to this machine without using iCloud? Really do not want to use the shitty MBP 720p or whatever it is. I don't even think I can get a screenshot into the Photos app.PhotoBooth is not an option.

I wish I had paid attention to nutrition when I was younger and had more control over my diet. Bad food and chronic illness can affect memory and the medications we take as a result can accelerate this process. We (i) need to actively combat this by staying as sane as possible. Don't be MAGA.

I just asked about my twice a year B12 injection. The med nurse said that I got it and I checked my notes app and she was right. This was 11 days ago. I'm losing my mind.

Their highest rule is that ownership equals control. It is above the law because law has already been bought.The best revenge is not reacting in any way that is expected or predictable. Our laws have to be higher than money and war and greed.We can not defeat them if we are them or if we become them

The Christofascist playbook hinges on controlling as much as possible and then switching it on and off according to their needs.Are tariffs creating chaos? Keep them on. Is a social site tanking your poll numbers? Switch it off. The advantage is for me, but not for thee.Everything is temporary.

I think my next step will be to restart in Recovery Mode and change passwords (AGAIN) and then do the other steps to reset Permissions.Also could reinstall the OS.It couldn't make it any worse( not that things are bad.Just frustrating that I can't get the setup I want).It should not be this hard.

The MacBook woes continue. I have fixed NOTHING on this POS!I thought I'd revisit the reset PRAM thing and thought"maybe I can shut down, mash all the keys and then restart" No. Just pressing Command Option restarts my machine.This is not a shortcut I made.It's the universe fucking with me.

Imagine if we end up having to hire humans to evaluate AI and approve?reject its use based on time, money and energy expended. How do you tell an AI chatbot that your'e sorry but you have to let them go?

Someone will have to study the long term effects of AI.We need to know if the human energy it saves is worth the resource energy it uses. Right now, it is just as inefficient as humans are but in a different way.

I used to be so proud of myself on the very regular occasion of me using Google and not getting a relevant result. But now I'm starting to do the same to AI assistants. I'm going to need a bigger hat.

I have a Time Machine backup but my problems might have predated it. But it might be the best option to start. The "hold down power button and then command option P R is bullshit. I'm not a fucking octopus.

New computer problems this morning( would love to blame Apple but I can"t).I also have to learn how to fix them before I attempt. Maybe as easy as resetting PRAM. Maybe as complicated as reinstalling the OS. I just want to use my machine(the option I decided to go with.....for now).
