Verizon will tell you to fuck right off and will never unlock your device.

Will never unlock their device.

hopefully someone will appreciate it ๐Ÿ˜‹

Not sure if wholesome, or wants there to be a car crash...

(I know what you mean, I just found it humorous.)

Our experience is that basically the only really expensive thing is childcare. Are you eligible for subsidized, or free, care (or have trustworthy and willing relatives)?

As for gear, babies don't need much. But for what they do need, reach out to friends, neighbors, and family! We're fortunate that we could have afforded everything new, but we really only bought a few things because friends and randos alike gave us so much free kid stuff (we bought a nice stroller, a baby basket, and an IKEA crib


basically everything else was a hand-me-down). Join local "buy nothing" groups, or parent groups (sadly they're usually WhatsApp, but whatever). Most people hate throwing away stuff, and would rather it go to a good home.

Look at programs for subsidized/free necessities like diapers. There are lots of resources out there, especially in cities.

As everyone else said, no one feels ready. We certainly didn't!

What kind of cutlery are you dropping that requires refinishing your floor?

Hmmm, I'm not sure I understand...

A large explosion every second has units of power, not energy. So to me this is suggesting that the train is putting out power equal to its kinetic energy per second. That's certainly not the case


it implies that the train is powerful enough to accelerate to the speed in 1s, which is definitely not true.

But that's just my interpretation.

~~I don't think your units make sense


kinetic energy has units of energy, but "kg TNT per second" is power (about 4MW). (I think just remove the "every second" and it's correct?)~~

Edit: parent edited comment.

Immich looks particularly good to me.

It is! Been running it for a few years now and I love it.

The local ML and face detection are awesome, and not too resource intensive


i think it took less than a day to go through maybe 20k+ photos and 1k+ videos, and that was on an N100 NUC (16GB).

Works seamlessly across my iPhone, my android, and desktop.

Maybe they mean four year uptime...

Yeah, I would additionally like to see fines be in units of revenue


$50M means wildly different things to different organizations.

For very simple tasks you can usually blindly log in and run commands. I've done this with very simple tasks, e.g., rebooting or bringing up a network interface. It's maybe not the smartest, but basically, just type root, the root password, and dhclient eth0 or whatever magic you need. No display required, unless you make a typo...

In your specific case, you could have a shell script that stops VMs and disables passthrough, so you just log in and invoke that script. Bonus points if you create a dedicated user with that script set as their shell (or just put in the appropriate dot rc file).

Diesel engine, Fischer-Tropsch, Homeopathy.

Many time zones: You get to a new place and look up what time zone you're in.

Well, sorta


but it's no effort at all because my timekeeping device (phone) does this automatically.

For me, the time of day is internalized in a way that I think is hard to switch. Same as how I was raised with imperial units


even though I prefer (and use professionally) metric, the intuition can be a little harder to get. But to each their own of course :)
