Struggling to tolerate wife's haircut

I typically don't care about things like hairstyle, makeup or clothes. But my wife has started giving herself a buzz cut and I simply hate it. I told her and she grew it out for a while, but she said longer hair was making her depressed and it needed to be a buzz cut. She said it just looks like her when she sees it. Part of me...

Couples therapy my man. Someone that is trans friendly. You're both fighting depression and that's valid but can ruin a relationship, believe me it ruined mine. At couples therapy we found that the issues that were forefront in our brain (ie, hair) weren't the fundamental issues.

What is the area of the shaded region? ( lemmy.world )

An 8x5 rectangle. If the bottom left corner is considered (0, 0), then two lines are drawn within the rectangle, from (0, 4) to (8, 1) and from (1, 5) to (7, 0). The smaller two regions of the four these lines cut the rectangle into are shaded. What is their combined area?

It is symmetrical across the diagonal so we will only look at the top left quarter, then multiply by 2 when we are done.
Because it is 1/4 of the rectangle it has area 1/4 of the original.
1/4 x 8x5 = 10.
This leaves two right triangles and the grey area.
The top right triangle has a base of (8/2)-1=3
And height of 5/2=2.5
Area = 1/2 x 3 x 2.5 = 3.75
The bottom left triangle has height of (5/2)-1=1.5
And base of 8/2=4
Area = 1/2 x 1.5 x 4 = 3
Top left grey area is the area of the the quarter minus the areas of the two right triangles = 10 - 3.75 - 3 = 3.25
There are two of these gray areas so final answer is 2 x 3.25 = 6.5

Look into Bangle.js, it's what I have, it fits some, not all of your requirements.

It's open source, both the hardware and the software so no lock ins whatsoever.

They advertise a 2 week battery, mine lasts closer to a month between charges.

You have to install any features you want (every feature is opt in, not opt out).

There's no speaker, microphone, or keyboard though, so no calling or texting straight from the watch. It's currently £77 before shipping.

The biggest strain on my finances is healthcare at 58% of my income. Then food at 28%. I'm fortunate enough to not have to pay rent, but if I did it would cost me about 35% for 1 bedroom apt 30 minutes out of the city. 80% if I wanted to be able to walk to work.
