I would kill for 13 hours of sleep. Yesterday I finally got 8 and it was amazing. Today I got 5. Hoping to get a couple more hours with a nap but we'll see.
Not a fan of roundup myself.
I went through bankruptcy primarily because of medical bills, twice! My partner had AIDS and no insurance, in the early days (early '80s) before there were organizations to help. We were together 13 years. He found out he had it 6 months after I met him. I'm still negative. So many of our friends had it too. Lost many of them.
I've been practicing trying to bring back my handwriting skills. I do my grocery lists in cursive, and when I catch myself printing notes and rushing , I'll switch to script (or more often, half script, half print) to be able to write faster. I have trouble though with capital "I", "J", & "G". I've had the same trouble with those same letters since grade school. But after 65 years I've finally mastered the capital "S".
But I hate the prescribed way for creating a capital "D". I've found a better way that's easier and looks much neater and since it's the first letter of my first name I get a lot of practice with it. Very quick and stylish and assertively signatory.
And since the kids these days aren't exposed to cursive writing these days I can use it as a secret language. Mwa, ha ha.

i'm gonna have to do bankruptcy thing when i hit ss. cant have them draining what littl the ss gives me
Someone once told me that he spent a long time making loops on a page, both clockwise and counterclockwise, and it greatly improved his handwriting. So I spent weeks filling pages and pages with loops, alternating lines with clockwise and counterclockwise. I didn't see any improvement, so eventually, I quit. Now I wonder if he was just making stuff up. Older people do that to kids sometimes and we're too oblivious to notice the wink or the smile that hints they are joking. Anyway, I hardly ever write things down anymore. I use Wordpad or a memo app, so I guess it doesn't matter.
what kind of sadist uses a light gray font on a white background?
He had stock in BIC?
Complaint: Oh, poo... I just had another wireless mouse die. Logitech 510. I love it. It fits my hand, has extra buttons, Is supposedly "Unifying" compliant (i.e. it shares bandwidth of a single receiver for mouse and keyboard, up to 5 devices). I had been using the ieyboard and mouse separately each with their own receiver for about a year, but today was experimenting with the "Unifying" feature, I had success for about an hour, then my mouse died.
I can't seem to get it to work on amy of my machines.
This is the 2nd time one of these partitular mice died on me at too early an age. No, it's not the batteries. I think I'll move to a different model. But I really want to use the "Unifying" feature along with my Logitech keyboard.
Yes. They are in the last place you left them.
She's not alone.
The people who made my digital frame offered me a free gift for registering my review with them. I know they are just bribing me into giving them a positive review, but I actually like the product so I figured why not. Turns out the 64GB sd card they sent me doesn't even work with the digital frame.... I will have to transfer my files from another, small SD card to it and then use the smaller card with the frame. I know, I know: it's a free product, so I shouldn't complain. It's just a weird choice in my opinion.
One time I got a free earbud case for registering my review of earbuds. Now that offer made sense.
Non-complaint-maybe: My mouse is working again.
Removed batteries, tested them, cleaned contacts, still no cigar. Moved receiver to my laptop, tried it there, no cigar. Installed Logitech's configuration software "SetPoint" and set up mouse (and only mouse) to be used by that particular receiver. Wheee. cigar! 
Mouse works again. Moved the receiver back to my other computer (where the keyboard's receiver is currently installed). Wheee..., double cigars. Now, with one device linked to each receiver, they are both working again.
Maybe tomorrow, I'll try again to get both keyboard and mouse to use only one receiver. I really don't have to, but it's supposed to be possible. I'd like know it works just in case I ever have to use that feature.
A site associated with NFTs. NFTs are non-fungible tokens which are a cryptocurrency/block chain thing. NFT art is non-fungible tokens that link to a piece of art (it's not actually the art itself, nor the copyright or commercial rights to said art). Arguably if Daz is going to sell and promote NFTs, it is now an NFT site, at least in part. On the homepage they're shilling their Shudu NFTs on opensea, see this thread if you want context for the drama. There's lot's of informative links on NFTs throughout that thread.
Basically, NFTs are environmentally destructive, and despite their hype just an over engineered receipt with a link to an artwork or other digital asset/data built on block chain and minted with cryptocurrency, and Daz is hoping Daz users will buy little $100+ animations because it's the trendy way for rich people to throw away money this year.
In theory, NFTs exist to secure the authenticity of an artwork as "original" and prove it's provenence, in practice it is incapable of achieving any of these goals. Anyone can mint a token for anyone's artwork, anyone can mint a new token for a copy of an artwork, and ultimately the NFT proves only it's own authenticity and provenence, as the data is only secured from the token the image at a specific location, where it may or may not continue to be hosted. If moved, downloaded, or redistributed in anyway except another NFT sale (which only affects the token, not the art file) the token is no longer connected or associated with the artwork.
NFT's are something like BitCoin. i.e. A way to make money for the few by taking it away from the many. With the added advantage of being not understandable by the victims without the twisted mind of those with financial ways of thinking. A way to bleed the sheep and have them like it. I may be a bit opinionated in this matter.
I use the Performance MX. Unifying...though I don't use a wireless keyboard. (I like my MS Ergonomic keyboard.) It has a rechargeable battery, but unlike the last model, you can replace it when it can't hold the charge anymore. It's just a standard NIMH battery, I use the Duracell ones. And you can keep using the mouse while it's charging, it doesn't have a charging cradle, it has a USB wire and it just acts like a wired mouse for the time it's charging. Nothing new to get used to, and you can keep going rather than waiting for it to recharge.

I don't know what you mean by VAT. My only knowledge of that is a VAT number, but can't remember what that's for either lol
Value Added Tax.

This is a report on Milk in Canada and no I do not live in a remote area. I live in Newfoundland and we get most our milk locally, a few brands are brought over and the price is a slight increase of maybe 0.50 cents. for those one's. Link is not a download unless you want to download it. It's listed according to province.

roundup a fungiblecide?
When I was in what they call middle school, or junior high, they wanted to get us acclimated to computers. So they discouraged handwriting, requiring us to type everything. I never had to write again, even to this day.
...now that's a sound from my youth that I miss, the Ice Creme Truck. I still remember the old Tastee Freez truck playing it's little jingle as it came up the street every Saturday and sometimes Wednesday evenings during summer.
I do, but I've been sworn to secrecy.
