Some people aren't self monitors. A lot of stupid/ignorant people are loud, but being loud can also be lack of awareness of their volume, hearing deficit, or cultural

This. One of the smartest guys I know, running a worldwide software business, is religious. Faith does not equal stupid.

Some older games gave an old school game code to unlock the game. So some I own, but many no, and that sucks

Ours is not like that. Non emergency gets you to an officer or dispatch, they take the info and your info. In the handful of times we called they have shown up within reasonable time for non-emerge call.

I mean if that is your relationahip requirement just throw it out there upon connecting, but also just because somebody knows FirstAid does nit mean they will save you, you also need to find out if they can be level headed when it is an emergency situation with a partner. If they panic because it is you in trouble they may be useless.

I like snake, but in some interfaces the underscores blend into the text line or are not rendered properly, so it becomes eaaier to discern if the filename has spaces or separators by using kebab.

I have Windows EFI and Linux EFI partitions on same srive. Secureboot is set to load Linux EFI Grub, a chainloader entry in Grub will handoff to Windows boot loader if I choose that. it has stayed intact for 7 years this way without windows knowing or touching the other EFI partition. But separate drives is probably even better

As a mid fifties dude that plays video games, I would say as I have aged other things start becoming more important. It is not that I don't enjoy them, its just the allure of playing a game till the sun comes up is now few and far between, because I'd rather be well rested for a nice bike ride during the day, or spend the time baking some homemade bread. Also tastes change too. Last year I was heavy Into MechWarrior5 and getting to the "Only 4 % of players acheived this" stat , but today I just bought Wingspan bird cardgame on Steam LOL. Probably the furthest from MechWarrior

Right, but i was commenting about educating your kids about the pitfalls of social media, like you said. My adult children are teachers and they see social media is destroying kids even with education about it...their brains can't stop even if they know the consequences, especially because it is psychologically tailored to engage them more and more

The guy is an out of touch jerk. Sometimes the hilight of your day ia that mental break grabbing a coffee at a cafe and enjoying fresh air. And i get way more work done with WFH, because people need an actual reason to interrupt your work flow

Passion and maybe less distractions, so the club was your main social activity, rather than being a side thing you glance at
