The other guy thought it was too much of a pain in the ass to even spell 737 correctly tho. But yes, some things absolutely should be a pain in the ass. Like when something going even slightly wrong will likely kill someone.

81·10 months agoThere is a reason it’s slightly more expensive tho. They don’t even bother to force or nag you to connect to Wi-Fi / Internet so the manufacturer can start selling data on what you watch… Sony charges a little more because the TV is for profit, instead of your data being the profit product.
They aren’t all that much more expensive at Costco anyway. Also it’s not like I’m buying a TV ever few years.
Shit my Sony Trinitron CRT still works. That really is buy it for life. Less can be said about Walmart specials.
ESU is a paid service for enterprise. They didn’t even offer ESU for windows 7 home at all for any price.
Windows 7 pro ESU per device cost $50 for 1 year, $100 for the next year, $200 for the final year.
Windows 7 enterprise was per device 1 year $25, second year $50, and 3rd year $100.
Micro$oft is not going to give win10 ESU away for free and they probably won’t supported home edition.
You can however bypass the win11 hardware checks to upgrade unsupported devices.

There were networks such as: EFnet Undernet Quakenet DALnet
different servers in different regions did network together.
There was a different word for ‘defederation’ back then: net split https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Netsplit
And it was usually from a networking issue.
I’m still salty that an IRCOP from a (now defunct) Canadian server used a net split as an attack: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/IRC_takeover
to steal a # channel from my friends and make it private long enough to sort out the bot auto bans. We appealed, but because they were an IRCOP, the other IRCOPs from the federated servers were just like, “whatever, pound sand users, go run a server if you want to control stuff like us.”
Anyway, IRC was a connection of various servers run by various people/corporations/universities etc.
There is a point where some fruits are more dangerous than others to give a toddler, such as grapes.
But you can bulk make a lot of purees with a hand mixer. On the weekend I would batch cook and bulk freeze a lot of different purees before they could have solid food. There’s these silicone trays a little larger than ice trays you can use to freeze the purees, then put them on a ziplock bag and pull one or two out to defrost in the microwave real quick.
You don’t have to use everything fresh, you can use frozen fruits/veggies and even do Passata - Strained Tomatoes no salt added, with spaghetti, or Mac n cheese. We had concerns about the level of salt in premade foods so we made our own on the weekend and froze it all. Low sodium lentil soups are ok too.
It ended up being a lot cheaper just to spend an hour on the weekend batch cooking for the kid and batch cooking for lunches to take to work too.
Finally I got a little plastic masher and used that, as soon as they were old enough do it themselves. They wouldn’t eat anything they mashed at first but they loved playing with it.
Now they just grab apples and other fruit straight from the fridge.
Our doctor said not to give them juice or fruit packs at all. The doctor did say chocolate milk mixed with regular milk is a good treat that’s safe and hydrating tho.
It’s honestly saved me time and money just to put in an hours work on the weekends instead of buying premade.
17·11 months agoI refused an unlawful order once.
It helped that everyone enlisted immediately agreed, but it escalated up the chain of command very quickly after we asked for a written order until it was agreed that it was a miscommunication and never happened.
To be fair they could order you to do a lot and just hope you do the implied, even verbally said, but unwritten thing. But when I was in we had clear training about what was and wasn’t unlawful to prevent abuse. If we had done it and had no proof we were really 100% officially ordered then it could have been pinned on us. Which is why my first response was, is that an order? Followed with citing the written order that said we could not do that thing and asking for a written order to do the thing. Just following orders works both ways.
Yea, the grind is becoming impossible though. My old man worked a summer job and could afford university all year on that.
After joining the military for the GI Bill, finishing that commitment, I worked in IT to keep us afloat while my wife went to university.
I left at 5AM for work, worked as much OT as I could, after work instead of sitting in traffic or stuffing on the train like sardines I studied, did all my IT certs, and left work at 7pm. The weekends I worked a second job doing IT. All through university I worked IT on nights and weekends.
The grind you have to do to reach “middle” class is becoming: come from money to afford college, or go into debt for life for uni, or work nonstop always.
How can people take care of kids, family?
What?
American Trends say we need:
Bigger Trucks and SUVS with less over the hood visibility.
Bigger guns with higher capacity magazines.
Bigger more vicious animals?
And bigger Flu?
Welcome to the thunderdome!
I highly doubt I will have the time to try all the new research drug-games my children acquire access to. Better stick to first party Nintendo games-drugs.
In all seriousness, PBS kids apps on mobile go hard, work on any device, and are fairly educational while being easy to use and fun enough to hold attention while being completely FREE.
We’ve paid for ABC mouse but the whole fuckin thing reeks of slot machine pokie stimulus while the puzzles and games crash often. The only thing that 100% works all the time is the store to exchange your “tickets”
Abc mouse is the highest rated most teacher recommended app and it’s fucking awful.
My 3 year old has gotten way more out of free software than any pay software that’s littered with addictive BS.
I would recommend:
GCompris
Khan academy kids
Learn to read Duolingo ABC
PBS anything
