I’m baffled by all the downvoting. It was also my first thought that we rarely own the software we use.

cathyk@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•My daughter lost her social studies essay because LibreOffice doesn't have autosave on automatically.English3·1 year agoYes. Like many here, I’ve learned to hit save A LOT. But I also want to decide when the time is right. Whether I’m writing a paper, coding, photo retouching, whatever, I flail around and experiment while working. I want to lock in my changes when I’m happy with the progress. If something goes awry I’d rather resume at the last manual save than some other weird thing I did afterwards.
cathyk@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•Nowadays, which band, musician or music give you goosebumps or made you cry?English2·1 year agoA song called “Paper Wings and Halo” by Lori McKenna always makes me teary-eyed. I hadn’t heard it for years - just played it. Still works.
Also, “The Circle Game” by Joni Mitchell. Apparently, songs about years and life passing by are what really choke me up.

cathyk@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•What are some things you can/should cheap out on?English9·2 years agoMascara. I’ve spent $20+ dollars a few times for some high-end Sephora brands, but I’ve never thought they were any better than the $8 Maybelline I can get at the grocery store.

cathyk@lemmy.worldto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•Alright gang, get yer pitchforksEnglish2·2 years agoWe just put the honey on a little plate and swirl in some sriracha. It’s very good. The honey OP has there is potentially waaay hotter since it contains the wicked-hot Scotch Bonnet pepper. I didn’t know this type of honey existed and I’m intrigued.

cathyk@lemmy.worldto Asklemmy@lemmy.ml•How many accounts do you have, and how do you manage them?English31·2 years agoCoincidentally, I just now opened a second account after opening the first a week ago. I decided I wanted a different @username. I don’t know why I used my Reddit username the first time. I’ll delete that one soon — I only made two post comments with it.
I do have a Mastodon, too.
