Some mobile game company stock prices took a hit lol.

Airpod Pros were not in the delivered case. I brought that issue to customer service and they refunded me that second. Learned my lesson on buying stuff like that online so I bought it directly at Best Buy instead. Even told the Best Buy employee to check the case for me for giggles after telling my story.

There's some good black Friday deals for in-game purchases for what I play at least. I'm hoping some CPU coolers and headsets at Best Buy go on sale.

It's mostly where I get my tech news.

I had used DDU with the previous driver and I have had no issues so far with the current one, so far.

We won for now*.

I actually have an adblock, in part, to save on data because I have one of those barbaric ISPs that still have a data cap in this day and age. I do pay for Youtube Premium though because it is the only thing I watch. Recently canceled Hulu, Netflix, etc..

Banning certain cancer-causing food additives that California is starting to copy also.

Can barely manage 2

Now to just get a mic arm later..

I checked this to see why the WAN show died without reading the full title l0l

First instance of the day. 1/160 chance of three dinosaurs being spawned.

Drawing with the regular pencil and paper.

I got the paid 14 days when I had to leave work right before this ran out. But now it's reinstated in CA. https://www.nytimes.com/2022/01/25/us/politics/paid-sick-leave-ca-california.html

Wanted that 5G and switched carriers too.

Take home covid tests are scarcer than toilet paper in 2020.

I pay for YouTube premium with a nice student discount. So no ads for me. Also download videos that I’ll watch later. Then I use YouTube Music in my car with no ads that also comes with it.

The covid affected me directly now when instead of finally being able to celebrate a New Year’s Eve party and be social for once, I didn’t go because my partner got the covid. I took care of him for about five days and the virus really kicked him to the curb while I barely got any symptoms. His fever shot up to 103 a couple times. Even for me the isolation in quarantine sucked. I’m glad he’s doing much better now. It’s been over 5 days and that’s convenient given the CDC’s new guidelines. https://www.npr.org/2022/01/04/1070413311/cdc-test-covid-isolation-five-days

Got my booster appointment in a few weeks. Just below the deadline for my university.

It hasn’t in this country since the beginning for some reason. And when some tell me masks don’t work I just tell them about South Korea and Japan.

We are not going to have another lockdown issued again like other countries are still doing. I am 100% sure of that. It has created a seemingly permanent labor shortage for one. We are just built different.

I’m disagreeing with a mask mandate for once. The blanket approach to putting a mandate for the entire state of CA is questionable given the data of certain counties. Mine for instance has seen a steady case rate. https://www.cbs8.com/article/news/health/coronavirus/cities-around-san-diego-pushback-reinstated-mask-mandate/509-ec707f8e-1a08-40e7-9cd1-aba68e322c4d

Media jumping to covering the new variant really quickly; it has now flooded my news feed.
