Socks at all times. The plain black ones that end right above the ankle and I change them about 3 times a day even if I’ve spent all day sitting at my desk.

fuck this guy

Very cool. Godspeed to the real heros.

So I was telling my wife about this weird daycare and she suggested it was probably preschool. I thought about it for a bit but I remember preschool fairly well. It wasn’t like a real school, it was some rinky dink Catholic school thing at the church my grandma went too and I think they rotated teachers and my great aunt was one of them.

I do remember there was a billboard outside or very close to the daycare with a dog dressed like Peter pan or something of the sorts.

This place haunts me for some reason…

Okay so this isn’t internet related but I’ve been thinking about it a lot lately so I’m sharing.

I vividally remember going to a daycare as a young kid. I don’t remember much of the activities and playing, but I remember the nap room like it was yesterday. There was a mean old lady who was in charge of watching the kids nap, everyone had to nap at the same time and the other daycare staff would go out to lunch or something. Most of the kids had sleeping bags and stuffed animals, some had foam houses where they would sleep in. It was just a room with those gym mats on the floor, I remember just having a thin throw blanket so one of the kids who had a foam house would share his stuff with me.

I remember it so well because the old lady was cruel, she wouldn’t let kids go to the bathroom, I guess because she had to stay there and we couldn’t wander to the bathroom alone. Everyday there would be kids who peed themselves and it just got chalked up to kids wetting the bed.

Looking back on it was so weird. The issue, I asked my mom about it a few years back and she said I never went to daycare, we were always dirt poor and no way could she afford it, but she was also heavy on drugs at the time and there’s a lot of stuff she doesn’t remember. But I don’t see how I would’ve been in daycare, or why, she hasn’t worked since I was born, in that time period we were in and out of shelters or staying with her friends… I don’t know but I remember it and stand by it with my whole heart.

Usually charger brick or just brick

My son once took all the cards our of my wallet and put them in the printer/scanner that we never use. I only found out 2 years later when I finally went to print something and there was a jam, opened the scanner lid to get inside and boom.

Could be there.

I always wanted to have a farm and be well off enough that I could take a good portion of the yield and just give it out in my old neighborhood.

Kids there are starving, most of them have never seen an eggplant, it’s cheap ultraprocessed food or half moldy apples from the food banks.

I know there’s a lot of other stuff too, but I think food education is pretty important, most of the adults I knew didn’t know how to cook resulting in everyone eating worse for more money, thinking they couldn’t afford to eat any healthier.

Although at this point my old neighborhood has been gentrified and filled with $3000/m studio apartments. I’d probably also buy out the neighborhood and give it back to everyone who lived there 10 years ago.

It’s been rough where I am. We’ve basically abandoned the living room and have all been cramming into one room with the AC on.

Even with the AC blasting in the living room it was 93 degrees fahrenheit inside

Looking through these comments I don’t know what half of this stuff is and I don’t think I want to.

My wife’s freind came over the other day and asked me if I could fix her new glasses because they were crooked, being polite I said I liked them (they’re hideous but to each their own), and she responded “thanks they’re D and G, they only cost me $700”. These were $700 glasses with no additions. No blue light thing, no scratch resistant stuff.

I don’t care for that.

A quick search on eBay for “chromebook gm02xl battery” shows me a ton of battery for under $20 with shipping, saw one for $12 with free shipping.

As a kid I always said I wanted to “work on the computer at home so I could take care of my farm”.

Which coming from where I grew up was about as realistic as owning the moon.

I do think dreams have gotten more generic with a lot of kids aiming for that influencer life, but the other day I heard a neighborhood kid say he wants to be a deep sea monster truck driver. I’m not sure what that means but I love it.

Not exactly quiet but works for me because of the layout of my house.

I go to the laundry room which is on the other side of the house from the bedrooms, turn the kitchen light on, laundry room like off (so it’s light enough to see but pretty dim), sit on the washer and play sad songs on my guitar.

It’s therapuetic and after about 20 minutes I’m just exhausted.

Out of the 8 cousins in my family the 2 of us that didn’t go to college are the only ones who own a house. I didn’t finish 10th grade and I’m looking at buying my second house and trying to figure out how to keep my current one to give to my mom.

My cousins are pretty cool (aside from a couple who are very spiteful) but my aunts and uncles act like I scammed them all for everything they had.

~3tb of a jumbled disgusting mess of miscellaneous files. Somehow it all works on jellyfin though.

I’d be down to try something new if you do end up releasing something. Jellyfin works just fine but I’m not in love with it.

My job used to outsource a bunch of dev work to another company and oh boy did those people love their tests. I don’t get it. In my case they weren’t even using our actual database to pull data from. They had a bunch of fixture files with generic data that they would use to make a temporary sqlite db for the tests. All of the test ran perfectly with that data, not so much with the actual data. The code is there, can’t you just read it and know what will happen?

When I write something I’m never not building it and at least checking that it works and trying to break it.

Do it during the week

I’ve been getting by just fine with a couple standing fans. I’ve had to turn the ACS on a couple times for my kids when I was around 110F

Before going full blast AC in all the rooms I’ll turn on the big Window unit in the living room and set up fans so it blows the cold air through the whole house (our house isn’t big) and I find its a good middle ground. It cools down the rooms pretty well.

Back in my early days of Linux I ran this exact command, I forget why, but for some reason my WiFi stopped working immediately after and then SELinux started yelling at me for some reason. I tried to fix SELinux and most certainly commited an innumerable amount of cardinal sins.

I had to reinstall whatever distro I was running at the time

Seems like a solid solution. Why doesn’t everyone just do that?
