Phone etiquette for the 2020s:
Message:
Hi, I wanted to talk about X. I think it’ll take about 5-10 minutes. When would be a convenient time to call?
Phone calls themselves don’t annoy me. People who expect to call you at any time and then get upset you won’t drop what you’re doing to speak to them annoy me.
Passed through earlier this year specifically to visit Caldea mineral springs. Absolutely worth it if you’re nearby.

I’ve had success with Focalboard and noticed nobody is using it here! Should I look at alternatives?

Me: how many applications have you got installed? SimplyMepis: Yes.
First OS was DOS, though my parents used a computer with Windows 3.1 on it before we got the dos box.
Excluding Damn Small Linux, first real Linux was Mandrake 9.2 (download edition).

I first try to think of the broad headings. If I can’t do that yet, I write out dot points of my ideas and see if I can group them.
Next, I start expanding the headings out with as many dot points as I need.
When I want to add more detail to a dot point, I indent that further, or write a sentence/sentences under it.
When I’ve got sentences for everything, I start to remove the scaffolding and group into paragraphs.
Say I want to write a how-to guide to change a car tyre. I initially think of two main things:
Now, let’s add some dot points
Notice how I added a new heading when a thought came to mind?
Now I’ll keep adding detail until I’ve got paragraphs.
Then keep doing this until you’ve finished it! Remember it’s normal to rearrange things as you go.

Soft disagree. I use the Qi charger to charge my phone overnight or while it’s sitting on my desk. The USB cable is when I need it charged quickly.
This way, my phone’s charging port is protected with a plug when I’m not using it and it is immaculate and unlikely to fail while I have it.
(My previous phone’s charging port almost failed and would stop working if I used it for all charging. Using Qi for the bulk of the charging kept the port working for when I needed it, like in the car or to the computer.)
