I’ll be dead honest, you have a kinda unique situation but I think the advice would be the same either way. You should ask especially since you had that illness and you gotta start somewhere plus if you have a solid relationship with him then it’ll make it even better! Its certainly a unique situation where there’s many approaches you could take but it all boils down to simply asking but also maybe give him the option to say no and hold no bad blood because it can be awkward amongst family members sometimes. If he says no it may not be personal maybe he likes the already established relationship balance you guys have.

Happy to see you building your strength in all aspects of your life! Keep going pushing on!

Plus, we will hold on to some percentage of technical knowledge that will help us adapt faster.

You’re running off the assumption that the survivors know useful information and that theyre also able to utilize that useful information plus be able to source needed materials since they wont have travel

Example: I know I need an antibiotic for my infection but I dont know how to create that antibiotic or how to guide someone on how to make it. If I did know id also have to get lucky that the region I live in has all the materials needed to make it. We source all around the world for our stuff.

Likely humanity will survive but probably wont advance as fast as you think.

Nah, there’s already enough to try and keep up with no need to add to the pile. If its friends I might just comment why I dont. I wouldn’t expect them to change though if they didnt care.

This rant troll thing you’re doing is definitely an edgy teenager thing to do.

If they can get enough of them before getting caught it could balance itself out though

I personally really like self checkout. Even with a full cart im in and out significantly faster than most everyone else. I dont get how people get tripped up at them but my god Is it so many. I would like to have the option to remove something I accidentally scanned without needing someone though. We finally got passed the bag scale issues this is the next hurdle!

As a side note I only do self check with a full cart because im a late night shopper I would never in a million years do it during busy hours.

So when my underage child opens this what’s the plan? Clearly theyre not old enough to enter into an “legally” binding agreement, right?

What are you talking about? Its not outrageous at all. There’s countless stories of exactly this happening and yes others have provided proof some even have videos about it im sure.

Ive just downloaded and played with it a very little. Do you have an community put together yet so we can direct conversations and such to there? All the big name apps for lemmy do it and makes prioritizing things a little easier as the community votes on posts and such.

I know this is going to generate hate but, I just cant care anymore. She’s a genuine POS who won’t be missed but its my one single escape from reality. Im far to exhausted trying to tiptoe around everyone who’s a POS. I’d say I’ll stay at home but my builders were probably a POS too and I gotta go sell my house to make SOMEONE happy. If others wanna get her canceled and by some magic remove everything shes ever done from existence I’ll make sure not to get upset but Im done being asked to be a soldier in every battle against a bad person.

Baulders gate on ps2 was my introduction into RPG and a bonding experience with my aunts ex.

GTA 1 was my escape from an abusive house

Tony hawk kept me from getting picked on for my gaming choices

Smash bros had me bonding with my closest friends

NBA street helped me and my brother escape from our parents.

This is what happens when politicians create laws and never revisit them to make corrections. Im a pretty tall person and i was on a dealship lot walking amongst the trucks and the amount of them I couldn’t even see over was terrifying. How much bigger do these need to get before they start classifying them as big rigs?

Exactly all this! Man, its like sitting on an uncomfortable chair but with my hands. I spend more time googling where something is or how to turn a setting off. It’s awful.

That’s absolutely ridiculous. He was doing his part in trying to keep her calm and trying to help defuse the situation. To be mad that he noticed a problem starting to boil over and handled it is insane. A partner helps in exactly these situations. Its not us vs ourselves. The issue can be addressed after. Why risk getting thrown off

The only reason this can be even slightly true is strictly because of age. We are ALL burnt out. They will be where millennial are in just a few years. We gotta stop this gen VS gen nonsense.

That number is still SIGNIFICANTLY less than those who won’t do anything. Us using ad blockers doesn’t even account for a percentage of what they rake in from those without them.

I don’t plan to switch but sync now has significantly less features since most are starting to not work. Sadly sync will be dead soon unless he comes back and does a pretty significant update. It’s only going to be harder after that since people are dropping the insanely priced subscription which was meant to help maintain the app. He’s lost the trust of his subscribers since it looks like he just took the money and dipped.

With that said its not uncommon to see him disappear then push an update quietly and become more active again. Without a doubt he’s still watching what we are saying.

That’s extremely common to do.

Easy, I had questions, lots of questions and instead of giving me the answers he walked me through the process to get the answer. This wouldn’t take long to work through I just needed his guidance. Within a year I was promoted and currently I’m in line for another promotion but due to head count there’s no room yet. I’m already the fastest promoted employee in the companies history which is just insane to think about. My previous boss before that couldn’t even bother to listen to anything the team had to say…

If you want to be a good leader just take the few extra minutes and listen to what the team needs screw the corporate nonsense and build your team. When you do that your team is able to then lighten the workload coming from other directions so you can focus on corporate nonsense.

The big difference being that most people don’t know or care to learn how to download their own OS. Installing a browser is quick and easy in comparison.

I’ve been out of the tech world a minute now so maybe its changed but last I knew no PCs came with Linux preinstalled and you can’t just get a Linux OS disk to use to install.
