I am a Compulsive Gambler and former professional poker player online since I lost all my teeth to bad mental health. Gamble free since 2017. A few months later found bitcoin, then I purchased some satoshi in 2018. Did a 180, got rid of everthing from the gambling days. Now using linux, skincare, niche fragrances, wet shaving, better fitting clothes, carnivore, metal genre \m/ and running. Bitcoin saved my life and I'm Bitcoin only.

Last day of work on Tuesday there. Day three of being unemployed. Got my winter sun holiday in 4 weeks, a sticking points for a new job. Least the government payment is 60% of my normal weekly pay. That's fine

Although I feel generally fine to go back to work, medically certified off this week. With the antibiotics however, the worse case of the runs I've got. Swelling coming down, and got about 75% control back in my mouth.

I'm not the person to simply take a day off work since I'm I'll. With this face swelling, I can only talk from side of my mouth. Since my job is telephone sales, taking as many days off as needed until the swelling clears enough. This is the last week before my job stops, on 28th October. Literally not bothered at all, since I'm going to be redundant.

And after waiting most of the day in the A&E at the hospital. On a prescription for the swelling.

For anyone that knows me, or has read my story. I've got some big news. Just visited the dentist about my face swelling, and agreed to Extraction followed by Dentures. So, to remove all the remains of my teeth, and then dentures. I haven't smiled for over 10 years. The first step has been completed. And something I'm happy to use my bitcoin for.

Troubled sleep, and now my face is even more swollen. I'm not the person to go to the doctor, I might have too

Joining in at work. Playing cards against humanity at work. Very rude. Dark humour. Tons of laughs. Fully joined in. Felt something, but only found out at home. Sore jaw, hopefully not back to the dark days. Noticeable, but okay. Disrupted sleep, had 2 hours on phone during the night. Then this morning fully felt it. Swollen gum. Restricted jaw movements, some pain. Can't concentrate on video games. Can't concentrate to set up my streaming microphone. Don't suffer in silence. Back to the dark days when I was losing my teeth. Got zero sleep for up to 3-4 years during the 2010s. Actually, body shut off for 1-2 hours at 5am-6am. No matter what time I went to bed. So painful, unbearable at times. Not there currently, but can't enjoy the weekend.

Hit a target at work, got off 3 hours early, paid. Nice touch. Week and half left.

In the meantime got a professional microphone for streaming. Where I will play video games and talk about my gambling past.

Quite a busy weekend, changed from PopOS to CachyOS on arch, to Nobara on fedura. Linux distro hopping. Fully set up on Nobara Linux.

One major thing to note about thus distro hopping is, my backup method worked a treat. Used Borg Backup. Its deduplicating archiver with compression and encryption. Foss

Yesterday wasted around 7 hours fiddling with the computer settings, think I've had enough of the PopOS distro. Very good at learning Linux, time for me to move on. Arch based distro more advanced, some more easier than others

Even though changing from Ubuntu based to Arch based is a step up, ready for it now with my terminal knowledge.

Finally got my popos 22.04 back working again. Problem with the second drive encryption. All sorted, however issue remains. 22.04 using older software. Needing up to date software. Thinking about bleeding edge - for gaming. Thinking about trying Arch distro CachyOS. Haven't really tried an Arch distro before. Been on Pop OS , which is derived from Ubuntu. Time to change.
