I’m guessing my kids are younger than yours, but I’ve taken the approach of simply keeping a loose eye and ear on what they’re watching to make sure they’re not on too bad of content and of course limiting how much time they can spend on brainrot content. They spend most of their TV time watching PBS kids or some ripped DVDs on my Jellyfin

The family thing can be a pain, Microsoft has a lot of half baked ideas

I concur, Microsoft forced me to create a family to setup my daughter’s Minecraft account and even then I had to configure it incorrectly to add the game because it’s age rating was too high for a 5 year old and Microsoft’s own parental approval feature doesn’t override that. (I at least could change it back to being a 5 year old’s account afterwards) I need to figure out what setting I have to enable to let her do multiplayer at some point but so far she doesn’t have anyone to play with yet

Win+Shift+arrow to kick the active window to another monitor is handy when remoting into a PC with multiple monitors.

Also, when did windows get rid of the idea of a primary display? It seems to just open software on whatever screen it feels like now…

It would probably helpfully suggest LinkedIn after you so much as type the L

I mean, Excel’s formulas are just scripting, so you are programming if you do any formulas.

Excel is pretty powerful if you have some data to manipulate or some math to math, but also it’s generally the worst tool for the job, but it’s at least a tool you can almost always assume will be available

I swear when I first heard 321 it was “at least 3 copies of the data in at least 2 physical locations with at least one copy being offline” but now I’m hearing of different storage mediums instead of different locations

someone rolling all 4 or 5 apps into a preconfigured single docker or app that can be a one click install

The reason each program does its own thing is for legal liability. One downloads what media you search for, it’s up to the person operating the software to choose media for which they can legal download. The next manages the metadata and organization of media but is up to the user to supply media for which they hold appropriate licenses to. Etc. Etc.

By putting all of the pieces together into one package you lose that deniability of software which has legal usecases but happens to be able to be combined to do something illegal.

You know how normies pirate? They find free/cheap streaming sites and hop from one to the next as they get shut down

“A rising tide raises all ships” has become my mantra as I try to do small things for others and for my community

What does one’s kinks have to do with their shopping practices?

Could also be they were only at the summer camp for a couple of weeks or whatever and kid brain with poor concept of time confused the timelines

Look at Mr fancypants here with an ISP that actually has some form of IPv6 support

Obviously you kicked the former friend off your network after you learned of their illegal activities and admonished them to pay for their media instead nudge nudge

Or an ogre?

I’ve learned from trans friends that we share some experiences of gender, because I generally don’t fit the traditional masculine model despite being a cis male. I remember being interested in “girly” things as a kid and being frustrated that I wasn’t “supposed” to play with the toys that I wanted to I could see where in another life, with the right people saying the right things at the right times that could lead me to believe that I’m trans when I don’t actually seem to be

Real talk, H.G. Wells was a fantastic author and his biggest hits are both immediately recognizable enough to be a performative conversation starter while also having the added bonus/hazard of potentially accidentally getting into it.

War of the Worlds, The Time Machine and The Invisible Man are all ones I’ve recently listened via Librivox (I linked the specific readers I listened to) during my commutes, but of course, my goal is to actually enjoy the books

I play a ton of simulation and strategy games (and some that I would hazard to classify as virtual railfanning/model railroading, like Railroads Online and Transport Fever 2) so I crank up the prettiness, download as much custom content as will load and enjoy the scenery at 20-40 FPS

This is what happens when you can’t hire gay furries to build and maintain your web infrastructure

under no circumsision

I appreciate that Circumcision is misspelled so you had to actually go out of your way on that one

The sad thing is I work at a small office with a half dozen nerdy dudes in their late 20s/early 30s and that is literally how all of them eat.
