One practical way to informally assess your bilingual level:

You are bilingual when you have a friend who can only speak your second language.

You could look into "attachment style", and perhaps you are "avoidant" or something similar.

Discussing this with a therapist, or advisor or life coach could probably help you zero in on what's going and what to do about it.

I have had a pixel 8 for a year and I never had any of the issues you describe. Hopefully you just had a lemon and the new one will work fine for you.

Several reboots on the first day is what I see too because the phone is updating itself to the latest version and patches.

Soon it will be stable.

Just remember to flush, though, otherwise:

Are you saying you haven't taught this to everyone yet?

I started to turn my hobby into a business 17 years ago. 5 years later it became my main occupation. I don't spend a lot of time on admin, maybe 15% top, because over the years, I made it a strategic game to streamline my processes, and I pay an accountant to help me with the taxes and other similar things.

It's awesome to be paid to do what I love to do. How much time is too much when you do what you love? Just remember to balance your life after your business is stabilized, so that you have other hobbies on your time off. Also, make space for the important people in your life.

Expect to work all the time in the first few years though, so plan accordingly, for example, if you wanna have a social life, weave your business into it. If you wanna take some time off to play a game, bring your partners into the game.

Don't worry, after your business is stable, you will get actual time off.

I suspect the "don't turn your hobby into a business" idea was originally dreamt up by some business owner who didn't want their employees to leave for a better life, and then we accepted it because it seems to make sense. It sure delayed me for years, before I decided to make the big jump.

That being said, I hear restaurants have low profit margins especially in large urban areas, so if you go for it, make sure to keep your costs extra low.

Spend time becoming extremely good at something you enjoy (and that your community needs) and you will find some people with disposable income will pay you to do it, because they want something good And they can afford it.

If anyone misses old school Quake 1 (first person shooter) in co-op mode, you can play it for free on this server, in your browser

Once you get used to the controls, the game turns out to be very well balanced.

I was using my phone to access Reddit through an app called RIF. It stopped working.

I can access Lemmy on my phone through an app called Boost. When I revisit a thread, it displays the new comments in a different color. Very very very convenient for active threads.

That's actually what they said when they decided to skip the testing on thalidomide.

Every day, in every way, I improve myself

Regarding the concerns you listed, it's the option that gives you the most control over content and access to it.

All the others are a trade off in exchange for them promoting you.

Modern equivalent to blogs would probably be vlogs (videos on tiktok or other platforms like that)

Blogs are still a thing, check out WordPress.org

Another option is publishing on a place like medium.com

None of the above are optimal regarding your concerns about data collection, etc.

To address that, you could just set up your own personal website, if you don't mind learning how to do it

If these annoying ads keep coming back, you could always pay a few dollars for the ads-free version of boost.

I did it and the experience is a lot better.

I've read that humans are the only animals on the planet that can throw objects with a degree of accuracy.

Were you reading some Mormon booklet? Anyway, you were misled, but cheer up, you can probably find better reading material, starting with the several answers you got here.

I used a non standard keyboard a long time ago and while it did deliver, the most important thing I learned is that non standard things tend to disappear and the time spent learning it was wasted.

Most of the hate against liberals has been seeded by Russian troll farms.

Most of the hate against conservatives has also been seeded by the same farms.

When the hate is picked up on by the locals, then that farm's work is considered effective.

An actual civil war is the big prize.
