Think about it, Google Maps is (I think) the biggest collection of map data and information on locations everywhere around the world, yet I don’t want an advertising company knowing that I just went to a fast food place....
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but you can use Google Maps without GPS and in Incognito mode, and you can watch YouTube without being logged in and/or not saving your watch history. You’re in complete control over the info you give Google. You can fully enjoy their services without the ickyness you described.
Oh, definitely. I know it’s an unpopular opinion, but there’s room for a middle ground between selling your soul to Google and avoiding their services like the plague.
Hello :) I think the phrase you are looking for is “notification anxiety”. If you Google that you’ll find a lot of information, experiences, and advice.
What About Men? by Caitlin Moran review – bantz gone badA tendentious take on masculinity that takes unoriginal thoughts and confirms them in the echo chamber of TwitterStuart Jeffries Wed 12 Jul 2023 09.00 BST...
I've noticed (with the help of family members and my SO) that I've become very negative, cynical and drained lately. Reading about burnout, I find all of the symptoms to be true for myself....
While it’s not Photoshop, Photopea is free and has such features. It runs in the browser and doesn’t require an account or lock features behind a paywall or subscription.
I don’t know why it is, but diet soda tastes artificial and gross, but adding sugar to it makes it taste way better than regular soda. I’ll still drink regular soda, but I vastly prefer diet plus sugar.
I can imagine people having fun getting lost in the flow of playing a competitive sport. I’ve also heard some people experience a post-workout high. But does anyone actually feel pleasure in the moment while lifting weights, jogging, cycling, etc?...
Yes, I feel pleasure when lifting weights. It’s good to feel powerful, and it’s good to feel like I’m getting stronger. I also get pleasure from knowing I can do it and that I’m dedicated and can keep up the routine. So I suppose it’s mostly mental pleasure, but physically having that feeling of power is great at the very least.
Living like that sounds very harmful to ones mental health. Sometimes people can’t improve despite trying and trying, and being told there’s no point in living without improvement would just help people that are already depressed justify their thoughts on not being alive any more.
I tend to dream big alot and i tend to want thing sinstantly with this age of tech and it can be annoying at times. i even reaserch thing sbut never do them i wonder if ther eis a way to dream small and what might that look like?...
I’ll give a bit of a different view. I don’t think it’s always a great thing to dream big. In fact I think it can be harmful to us at times. It’s not just about struggling to break things down into smaller parts or finding the time. Some things just can’t/won’t be done successfully for all kinds of reasons.
Big dreams often need cooperation with others, resources beyond our means, etc. Breaking things down into smaller parts won’t make these issues easier. If we could all raise millions for our business ideas, for example, we would. Some photos try and try and try to chase their dreams and goals for years, and never succeed or even get close.
Dreaming big isn’t bad, but keeping your expectations grounded to reality is an unfortunate necessity for your own well-being.
Google Apps are like junk food, bad for your health/privacy, but very good in taste/product otherwise.

Does anyone actually enjoy working out?
I can imagine people having fun getting lost in the flow of playing a competitive sport. I’ve also heard some people experience a post-workout high. But does anyone actually feel pleasure in the moment while lifting weights, jogging, cycling, etc?...
Anyone else feel like ~99% of their life was kind of wasted?
In the last year or so I started to see so many people of my age that have done truly incredible things and still doing more....
