Sitting in a big cardboard box with my wife and closing the flaps. We were both very stressed at the time and it just felt very cozy and quiet in there.
If I had the room I would have kept it. Instead I bought a foldable pop-up tent to try to recreate the feeling, but it’s just not the same.
For me at least, it’s that I can’t do anything of substance until the scheduled thing is over. I can’t even start the video game while waiting because I’m worried I’ll get too engrossed and forget about the thing I have to go to later.
I watched Kirikou in my high school French class! I liked it, but being teenagers, there were many immature jokes about the nudity.
I worked at a high school doing IT. I kept student-returned laptops in a laptop cart. One day, to my absolute horror, baby cockroaches start crawling out of the cart, and infested my entire work area.
The cart was quarantined and treated by Terminix. After a while the cart was returned to me, and I had to sort through and clean/wipe all of them. I wish I could have just e-wasted the whole thing. Another round of hatching happened a few weeks later, from another laptop, but luckily I had put them in air-tight containers by then.
In a lot of the California schools I’ve worked at, they do teach these things. I think they are really great skills that I wish were taught when I was in school.
Unfortunately there’s a lot of conservative push back and a movement to get these topics out of school.
People are dying because of conservative policies but you think AI is more important than that. That’s sad. I would vote for you if your rights were being denied.
Why not vote for the sake of other people when their lives, health, and safety are on the line?
I worked at a homeschool public charter school for a few years. A good chunk of the parents were only in it because they wanted to use Christian curriculum and other conservative garbage to teach their children.
The school even had me go to a professional development event that ended up being a Christian leadership conference held at a church. One of my coworkers walked out once she realized it was religious and she was forced to use her PTO for the remaining days of the conference. I should have done the same.
Why is it the most important issue for you?
These are grown adults in their 40s. You really think the mom should just forever be their maid? Even at the age of 75?
At some point they just have to take responsibility for themselves. Even if they have to, or want to live at home, they should absolutely be contributing if they are able bodied.
Not a standalone hub or dock, but Dell makes some pretty solid docking monitors. I’m using the U2721DE model daisy chained to another monitor.
What kind of technology did you work with while doing desktop support? If you like working with endpoints you could consider doing client platform engineering.
Takeout. I get it a few times a week and always feel a bit guilty about it. I like supporting the local businesses but it’s expensive and the plastic containers aren’t great.
I think it goes the other way too. For people that tend to apologize too much, even when it’s not their fault, mixing in a “thanks for your patience” is a good way to balance it out a bit.
Same here, mine are in July as well and in the past that has usually felt like it extended Pride month for me. This year is different though. I can’t believe I miss rainbow capitalism.
My bills for two people regularly come out to $50, at normal unfancy restaurants (sometimes even just fast casual). So $70 would be 3 people for me.
