10 days agoMy dad recently passed away suddenly but there’s a saying he used to tell me that has helped me through the grieving process. He used to always say that life has yin and yang. That we couldn’t feel rested if we didn’t know exhaustion, fullness without hunger, or happiness without sorrow.
Having this perspective has helped me accept that all of the joy, laughter, and warmth he brought me has to be balanced with the sadness I feel when he’s gone.
You don’t have to use the exact same analogy but I think the general philosophy is helpful.
I love my screwdriver set from ifixit. Not exactly tech itself but I’ve had it for years and with light use it has lasted pretty much perfectly. The 64 bit set has had every bit I’ve ever needed so far. Only downside is that the base is a bit short and stubby so it doesn’t always fit. It does include a rubber extender but that doesn’t work as well in my opinion.
