right? teams is a descendant of INSTANT messaging. I actually find it more annoying if someone tries to initiate a Teams Call without the “do you have a minute for a quick call?”

Some things are easier to do via email. Some things are best discussed live. Be that via text or voice or video.

I switched to Nobara a couple months ago. My computer is a lot snappier. Overall its great. Some minor difficulties but no show stoppers.

Signal desktop gives me an error that it is keeping credentials in plaintext which is fucked, I tried to get it to not do that but havnt been able to figure out how. (there are tutorials for ubuntu/gnome, but I havnt figured out how to translate those to fedora/kde…

I just started using crow-translate which is amazing, but keep getting a screenshot error message. Something with wayland maybe? again when I search there is a lot of shit about ubuntu/gnome but that doesnt really help.

I have one of these. Rather my wife does. It is not in use anymore as it jams frequently, but we haven’t gotten rid of it quite yet.

I think this is a bad idea. A one time tax? Too easy to wiggle out of. Make it yearly and put it at a lower rate.

Risotto isn’t complex per se, but 20-30 minute of stiring/babysitting isn’t exactly easy.

How do kids write? I know I will go back and forth over the same well formed letter to make it look scribbly.

I’m not trying to be argumentative. I am trying to eat closer to vegan diet for a variety of reasons. That said, its not hard to raise chickens and treat them well. My biggest problem is my daughters trying to hug them when they are clearly getting irritated.

Also more protein in wheat compared to rice. Actually a lot more nutrients in wheat compared to rice.

Beef barley soup is delicious

So don’t attack the pawns, recruit them.

There are plenty of troops that just repair cars. Maybe those cars get used for murder, maybe they don’t. It’s a complex moral problem that is different for everyone at different levels.

By saying fuck the troops, you are falling into the trap the owners want. You are focusing on pawns rather than the kings they want to be.

Choice 1 be dirt poor or join the military

Choice 2 obey orders or get thrown in military jail

I suspect most adults have some coping mechanisms built up so its often harder to separate out the basic problems. Children offer a ‘cleaner’ study, so that is what they focus on.

I have to say my 6 year old has a lot of symptoms. I started giving her melatonin to help her sleep and a lot of the behavioral issues have gotten a lot better.

I’m not trying to say its a cure all, but I was surprised how well it helps her sleep, and how many (I thought) unrelated issues have improved.

I think its more likely an impact driver. They are much more common than hammer drills. Ironically more inappropriate for any drilling.

I am very impressed about your directness and take charge attitude. Your approach of bring others in to help you accomplish your goals really speaks of future CEO material to me.

And (reportedly) 19 million more who thought, ‘whatever, I’m not voting’

Rampage was actually a good (if fucked up) movie.

Back when I had free time, I watched a lot of bad movies. Good bad (Tromeo and Juliet ) bad bad (BloodRayne). Just about everything of Boll’s falls into the second bucket, but Rampage is in neither. I don’t want to oversell this, but its an above average movie.
