I saw in a patient’s chart recently that they were unable to perform a breast biopsy because her breasts were too small. I was like goddamn.

I feel like I can pull out of the parking space quicker and easier if the nose of my car is facing towards the street.

Also, and this sounds silly so please don’t judge too hard lol…

I got a new car recently. My old car had front parking sensors that would beep in increasing frequency the closer you are to an item. My new car does not have front parking sensors. My new car has both a backup cam and rear parking sensors. So it is sometimes easier to back into a space.

However, I mostly only back in at my home parking space and in this one parking garage I go to with very narrow spaces. I get nervous in public when someone is waiting for me to back in so I don’t do it super often in public.

Ohhh I remember Wubi! No need to boot from an install media and you can install it entirely under Windows. That method of installing a dual boot never seemed to get super popular and I guess based on the OSes listed in that article, it seems pretty dated and not updated. I’m kind of curious to know whether or not it still works tbh.

I’m assuming since you’re older now, you’re out of that environment, yeah? It’s one silver lining in things I guess. If your teddy bear were sentient I’m sure it would have hugged you back and told you everything was gonna be ok.

Honestly, for me it’s a bit weird. I’ve actually forgotten a lot of the specifics of my childhood. I know my dad would do it, but I don’t really remember any specific moments in time or what my responses were. Memory is a weird thing like that. I guess because it was so long ago or something. Dunno.

Aww I’m sorry that both of your parents were like that. Luckily my mom is a very sweet person.

And hey! I’m a fellow computer dork too! I’m nowhere near the level of knowledge of many Lemmy users, but I’ve always been a casual tech/gadget fan since I was a kid. But somehow I never fully built my own PC until just the other day. Was actually a pretty simple process and things today are so much better at plug and play as opposed to long ago. Hope you’re still enjoying being a tech nerd haha!

Humans are messed up in general so it’s probably common enough tbh. My childhood was a bit different though. The arguing was never mutual. It was always my dad screaming at my mom while she sits there and takes it. I remember realizing that was abnormal by watching media growing up… realizing that couples are supposed to love each other and that fights are generally a mutual experience, not just one person belittling the other.

Anyway sorry that was oversharing lol

As a socially anxious person, I absolutely love self checkout. Unless I have like a zillion items, then I use regular checkout.
