Last week I had the lovely experience of it also pushing a bios update that enabled bitlocker and locked me out of my drive. I had to completely wipe the laptop and lose the data.

Nail. Coffin. Good riddance.

I love my standing/sitting desk. I use an uplift from thehumansolution. I’ve been using it for about 8 years now. I bought one of their frames only and removed the desktop from my old desk to mount on top. I’m not sure if they sell just the base anymore, but I see they have a lot of options. I also use a lifespan brand walking treadmill under mine that I’ve been using just as long. I highly recommend both. It has done wonders for my back issues that kept getting worse after prolonged sitting.

It is not wobbly, and I have my entire desktop and triple monitors with heavyduty tri-monitor base on top of it.

Yes, the no phone in bed rule is a good one. I also try not to look at my phone first thing in the morning aside from turning off my alarm. Then I get up and start my day before checking the phone. Don’t let your phone dictate your day, start it yourself with intention first.

I saw something that resonated with me the other day talking about social media vs social networking that resonated with me.

It stated something along the lines of Social Media being just that published media. Always having a spin to it or doing it for the likes.

Social Networking on the other hand would be more about connecting with people over similar interests.

That’s why I only used reddit before and now have hopped to Lemmy. I’m interested in finding out more about the fediverse because it sounds like it has a lot of potential solutions to things that kept me away from Facebook and Twitter.
