This is actually a project on my to-do list for my kids. Sucks that each seat can’t share a framebuffer (otherwise multiple GPUs would be entirely optional) but to get 2 decent gaming experiences out of a cheap used PC plus an extra GPU is pretty sweet

Before I had kids I would’ve been right there with you, but I am in a completely different mindspace anytime I’m caring for my kids than when I’m not.

When I’m in “dad mode” there’s a significant portion of my attention that’s constantly running through “Are the kids getting into trouble? When did I last see them? When were they last fed/watered/potty breaks? Are we about to pass something that they’ll see and decide they need to go to and therefore cost more time/money than I’ve budgeted for this trip and should I be taking a different route to avoid it? When did I last observe the kids alive, has it been more than 60 seconds I need to check on them again…” And the only way to break out of dad mode is if somebody else has taken over active care/monitoring of the kids or if the kids are both asleep in their beds. It’s a biological state that I seriously did not know was possible, and I simply can’t turn it off.

So when I say I can’t forget my kids in the car, this is what I mean, I’m so actively aware of my kids location and status at all times that I’m the primary caretaker that they can’t even try to wander off in a park or store without my noticing

The sun never sets on the British empire!

I thought it would be this bit from Pajama Sam

IANAL but isn’t that the purpose of a “no contest” plea? Its a plea somewhere between guilty and not-guilty without the bad look of pleading not-guilty on something you’re obviously guilty of

Also you’re supposed to wait a full year before becoming pregnant again after having a kid so your body can heal and re-normalize. Having kids that close together is hell for parenting and hell for your body

As a parent myself it always boggles my mind that people can forget that they have kids in the car with them. I’m always in dad mode when I have any kids with me, so I’ve never even come close to forgetting a kid in the car. Forgetting to grab the kid’s backpack for school sure, but forgetting a whole child in the car?

This is my second season. I’m biking about 5 hours a week right now, averaging about 40-50 miles per week. I don’t know how obvious the toning would be to others but I can certainly see it, since y’know I’m the one who sees myself the most

It makes sense with how involved Tony Hawk is in the punk music scene to try to mix in some new songs and not just repeat the same soundtrack

I’ve been biking so much lately that my legs are getting hella toned, the rest of my body is starting to tone too and I’m feeling much more alive and healthy than I have at any other point in my life!

Yeah my problem with stardew is I feel too invested in min-maxing my time so I end up stressing over every minute in the game and it’s too exhuasting

No worries! Have a wonderful day!

I can’t tell if you’re being sarcastic or not but I worked with someone who watched LTT religiously and seemed to get most of his training from LTT. I spent a lot of time figuring out what he did or didn’t do, writing the documentation he didn’t write them fixing what he built incorrectly. LTT tries their best but their background is purely in gaming computers and it really shows, especially with the repeated IT failures that really shouldn’t be happening in an organization of their size

I wasn’t the one who said to avoid the stock market. I just got the feeling that your comment I was replying to was saying to just place money into a high interest savings account and wanted to throw an alternate opinion out there

Based on my recent meeting with someone from the retirement planning arm of my bank, high interest savings is ideal for an emergency fund. If you’re keeping 10-20k sitting around it’s just going to keep losing value in any traditional savings account. But having the rest in an IRA or RothIRA (US-specific tax advantaged retirement accounts. Basically one is taxed as money enters the other is taxed as money exits, and there’s limitations to try to prevent abuse by the ultra-rich) can lead to significantly higher interest. He ran a report of “if we took your 401ks that we’re rolling together and they just lived in this account over the last 30 years of markets here’s what you’d have” and the answer was actually a lot more favorable than I expected.

It’s not unrealistic that a billionaire staring down the rest of his life in prison would choose to go out on their own terms. It’s also ultimately unknowable for any of us normies exactly what went down in that cell, but don’t discount the possibility that he simply chose to off himself rather than deal with all of the unpleasantness he had to look towards

Nah it’s a yellow brick in Lego Racers

Reviewing their post history you’re definitely right. Holy crap how can one person spew so much anger at nothing?

This is most likely it. Seems some newer boards don’t just nicely support both UEFI and legacy booting and will straight up only do one or the other

I honestly stopped watching his content after he tried to make a video about gaming on an older more budget system during the height of the GPU shortages and they were laughing about how the worst components they had on hand was something like a 2070 and a 10th gen i5 and then were making fun of how bad the performance was compared to their current high end components that would easily cost $3k. It was so tone dead it was disgusting
