I don’t get it - where did all these idiots come from in the western developed worlds? It’s like half have forgotten history, and are hell bent on sending us into this fascist dystopia where we’ve forgotten that freedom comes with a price. Nobody likes the darker side of the internet, but punishing regular users and businesses isn’t the answer. Everyone loves to pick on the USA, and we deserve it, but it’s happening seemingly everywhere.

My daughter has a learning disability. Dyslexia and some weird kind of error with certain fine motor skills. The diagnosis from everyone? ADHD-put her on drugs. What drugs would you like? If one drugs doesn’t fix her, we’ll try two drugs.
Thank god my wife and I resisted. Nobody could explain what was going on and how drugs would fix it. I ain’t gonna lie, her elementary school days were rough. But now, straight A college student in her junior year.
I’m sure there are people looking for it, but my experience was default diagnosis by doctors and schools pushing adhd onto kids where it wasn’t appropriate.
It’s really the stupidest thing ever. For those of us here in New England, as kids we all expected to see this cool thing and we get taken to this stone instead. I’ve got more impressive rocks in my backyard. Plymouth itself is a nice place to visit as adults, but this silly rock that’s probably not even true is the lamest of lame.
Mine would be pretty interesting in the hands of a capable writer - maybe a 75. This of course has nothing to do with me, I was but an observer of some pretty crazy family antics. It’d be like duck dynasty but with more crazy people. ;)
I agree. I think step 1 was understanding what should ideally be done. Now I can make my life easier through automation (which seems to be the common feedback - “hey why don’t you automate some of this stuff, try these out”). Which is exactly what I intend to do! ;)
You know I’m right, but it’s cool af seeing your fish and corals.
Dooooo eeet
Do it, you know you want to. >:)
Just a tank and some lights, add some flow and boom! You’re there. Just get some salt and testing kits to keep things in balance. Those Hanna checkers are nice if you want to splurge - but that’s it, you’re done! I mean…. You have to get the fish and corals too - but you can make friends and get frags for free! Then you’re really done. Everything beyond that is automation, you don’t have to do any of it (although you can really dial in your nutrient balance if you use protein skimmer, algae scrubber, refugium, media reactors). But you don’t want to do that because then you’ll need a sump (but aren’t sumps handy? Who doesn’t want a sump?). Just make sure your stand accommodates everything-you don’t want to rebuild a stand. Leave room for controllers and uv meters and all that other stuff just in case you add it in the future - which you’re not going to becasue it’s expensive and overkill…
Surprised there’s no reef tank people here. Imagine spending $5000 on a 20 gallon fish tank - BEFORE spending any money on corals.
Ya it CAN be done for $50, but nobody does that.
Yup you are 100% correct. I didn’t understand what btrfs brought to the table until i started playing around with backups. What I really need is a snapshot since my backups really are handled differently. I may reformat simply for this reason. (Or I’ll switch things up the next time I break something)
Great suggestion-I really appreciate this! I’ll look into it.
So I have a note written down that says "keyring" It's unclear to me if that's something I should do regularly, or just if I have a problem. If I'm not mistaken, it is possible for a package to need the updated keyring even if you do pacman -Syu regularly. But I also think it just pitches an error on that package, which will fail to update. Then you can just update the keyring, then rerun pacman -Syu and everything will be fine?
An American made walker mower. I don’t expect me or my son will ever need to buy another mower again.
Stanley hammer 30ish years ago - still going strong. (Actually I have numerous tools I’ve had for 30+ years)
Probably not for life but damn long for a tv - a Sony xbr lcd flatscreen 1080p 46” that’s 15+ years old and still going strong with daily use.
A pair of bogs boots, they seem indestructible.
A McDermott pool cue - about 35 years old
Cast iron pans
Orvis fly rod
I have a Columbia winter coat that’s 15 years old and used all the time. I actually hate how long it’s lasted, I want a new one but can’t justify it.
My house - it’s a good house that will certainly outlast me.
I think everything else will fail before I kick the bucket. There’s a few things that’ll last for a while - but not for life.
