...I'm just now realizing that I've missed an incredible opportunity.

Can you offer a few examples of things you've said that have elicited this feedback?

My cat is a very special boy and there's no other cat like him. Does that count?

Damn. Your grandma still alive or he single?

Is it people at work telling you you're a dick? If so, you should ask your manager for their input. Behaving at work is far different from behaving in a casual social setting.

Yeah, just need to time sick days to ensure that the last day of school lands on the preferred gender.

I bet you're fun at parties

My job is my dream, and I genuinely enjoy it. Even if I won the lottery I'd still work. I often joke that my job is my "favorite videogame" - it just scratches that itch.

I'm a Microsoft 365 admin. It helps that i have a super flexible schedule, so I can work around my life instead of vice-versa.

Valid. Spent entirely too much on my 16TB setup in RAID 1 (total of 32TB drives) and I've got it half full already.

RAID1 is cheap. It's not a fool proof solution but has saved my Plex library a couple times over the years.

Wow, this wasn't a feature before?

 

I was shocked in the presidential debate that Harris gave staunch support for fracking. I was under the impression that democrats are against fracking, and remember people being critical of Fetterman for supporting it.

I also grew up in an area that was heavily impacted by the pollution from fracking. People who worked in the field were seen as failures of moral character who chose profits over the health of their children. How is it that both major parties are now in support of it? I feel like I must be missing a piece of the puzzle.

 

A small apothecary opened in my neighborhood that makes beauty products. They've been very accommodating with selling me shampoo and body wash in my own reused containers. It's all locally sourced ingredients. I'm new in my Zero Waste journey but it feels great to eliminate plastic from part of my daily routine.

 

I've recently met a man whose dating profile said that he's Graysexual. I tried Googling the term, but it's a bit confusing and I'm hoping to get a straightforward breakdown from the kind folks in this community.

From what I gather, it's a branch of asexuality that sometimes feels sexual attraction. That's a bit ambiguous, though.

I will ask the person directly once we've spoken more, but it will help to have a foundation of understanding beforehand. Thanks ahead of time!

 

My bestie broke both of his arms and wrists two days ago. He's in his 20s, a gamer, has a pregnant wife and a young kid. Any ideas for gifts I can get to cheer him up? He'll have no use of his arms for 3 months.

Already got a bidet for him and hooked it up. Looking into accessible gaming controllers, but he said that the pain is so bad rn that even alternative controllers are probably a no go.

 

My best friend broke both of his arms and wrists, and will have zero use for 3-4 months. I'm trying to figure out some way for him to play videogames while recovering. Maybe some kind of foot controller? A mouth controller?

He's feeling miserable from the pain and I know that gaming would take his mind off of it.

Please let me know if you have any ideas.

Took me a few hours to figure this out, figured I'd pass it along. Forgive formatting, I'm on mobile.

Have the user login

Test their access to files

 

I have a host name whose dns points to my home IP. I use this for game servers for my buddies. Should I be worried about my home IP being easily accessible like this, and should I get a physical firewall appliance to protect myself?

Servers are running Windows Server 2019 and Mac OSX.

 

Rice crispies and marshmallows were on sale, but I want to fancy them up a bit.

 

I'm new to manga and have read the above. I get hooked on the cat and mouse of "How will our protagonist overcome it this time?". Any manga recommendations like this?

Of the above, Berserk was my favorite. Beefy men are a plus.

Thanks ahead of time!

 

I have a raspberry Pi 4B that is connected to a CRT TV via Composite and controlled with a PS4 controller. I'd like to use the Pi for Netflix, Plex client, and playing DVDs from an ext drive. What distro would be best for this?

I tossed Retro Pi onto it and the controls work great but I can't figure out how to install the media apps.

 

Pretend you have a fully functioning kitchen and filtered water. There is no limit to how much food you can bring, but you have to carry it. What would you bring?

 

I'm taking a long biking trip soon and want to share my live location with my boyfriend in case something happens. Any recommendations for privacy-focused apps that can accomplish this? I'm on Android, he's on iOS.
