Just watched this blind (haha) after seeing the two stars on the poster on Netflix as I was scrolling.

It was pretty fun! Not a cinematic masterpiece but enjoyable. Rated R for a few instances of breasts, an erection bulge, and lots of bad language.

I had a good time. I understand it wasn't a big success, and was the third of four movies they made together.

Wilder and Pryor are quite funny, often in an immature way. The female leads Joan Severance and Kirsten Childs do a great job, and Kevin Spacey plays a bad guy well.

Anybody else seen this?

I forget medical info all the time. When was my last dentist visit? I dunno. Which kid had their tonsils out? What's my blood type?

Wife asks "remember when I had strep last year?" No...

Has anyone in my house had COVID? I think so, but which one(s)?

I forget vacations we took, what states I've been to.

Terrible at remembering people that I've met even a bunch of times.

Horrible at work. I'm on top of what's happening now, mostly, because I have notes, but what happened a year ago? Gosh.

It's really frustrating living like this, but I don't know how much might be my ADHD and how much is just me having a bad brain.

A trans parent would likely still want to be called "Mom" or "Dad", I assume. At least that's the case with the few trans parents I know.

Parents don't usually use "daughter" or "son" as pronouns, so I don't think it would come up with non-binary children.

Do children of non-binary parents call their parents by their first name? It seems unlikely that they say "Parent, may I please have more screen time?".

I've got an extra tall living room, and without a 15' ladder there's no way I can actuate the pull down shades. I would be annoyed to have to climb up to change batteries a few times a year. What I would ideally want are some kind of window shade or blinds with a remote or HA controllable, and a little solar panel to collect the juicy rays of the sun.

I have found hard wired shades, battery powered shades with remotes, and zigbee etc shades, but not exactly what I'm looking for.

Any suggestions?

I don't actually HAVE any automation at home beyond some hated Alexas, but these shades would be a great place to start.

Thanks in advance.

I'll put some game codes in the comments, reply to let others know you've claimed it!

Hiya folks, the last PC I built had a top-of-the-line ATI Radeon 9800 in an AGP port. I'm on a PowerSpec prebuilt now, which is working fine.

My kids are ready to graduate from the spare laptop to an actual PC, and I want to build it with them so they learn about ESD and the joys of thermal paste. I plan to have the kids upgrade these in pieces over the next few years as/if they grow to need more power.

They mostly play minecraft, fortnight, and roblox. They don't care about max graphics or AAAA games or max FPS yet, but maybe they will in the future. I still don't.

I'm trying to keep it under $800, and I already have OK but not great 1080p work monitors.

Here's my first draft: https://pcpartpicker.com/list/vxcfFZ

I'm very open to suggestions on any front!

Just watched this on streaming. It's about a young woman who stops aging and her difficulty in maintaining relationships as an ageless person. Blake lively is great in it and Harrison Ford is remarkable. Has anyone else seen it?

Hi, I switched my desktop to Linux full time many months ago and I'm never going back. My kids want gaming PCs for Minecraft, Roblox, fortnight, etc. Kid games for now.

Hardware

I've been planning to show my kids how to build their own computers, and I think I can 2 for 1 this. My current PC is a prebuilt Ibuypower, and the last computer I assembled had an AGP slot. I know spinning metal is out generally. Other than picking an AMD graphics card what tips can you offer me?

Software

I want to give them the opportunity to learn and fail, so I don't think I would go with an immutable distro. Thoughts? Assuming a separate /home I think having to reinstall once in a while is a good lesson.

Firefox with full add blocking of course.

Is there an application for managing screen time, and while they're still little I'd be interested in some kind of blocking/filtering.

Thanks folks!

Hello,

I've been using a pair of $20 no-name BT earbuds from Amazon for the last few years and they worked well enough for me, but the quality is starting to show in physical problems. The electronics still work fine but the charging ports have come loose etc. It's time for new earbuds and I would appreciate input.

I use the earbuds only with an Android phone (Google Pixel 6 Pro), and I don't use the assistant or AI or voice commands. My current earbuds have a terrible microphone so I can't make calls with them - improving this would maybe be nice but is not a big deal.

Features:

• Price - Under $150 maybe? Soft limit I guess

• Touch controls of some kind - mandatory. (start stop, volume)

• Wireless charging of the case/battery pack - very cool, would be nice. Not mandatory

• Case charging connector - USB-C I guess but Micro USB is fine. No Proprietary chargers because I tend to lose cables

• Built-in assistant / AI / voice control - I won't use it and I don't want it. As long as I can ignore it I don't care what features of this type are included

• Noise cancelling - Some is better than none but I don't need ultra-deluxe sound deadening 2000 pro 2.0

• Sound quality - don't care. I'm not an audiophile, and I can't tell the difference between bitrates. I mostly listen to spoken podcasts and audiobooks, only occasionally music

• Toughness - I won't wear them in the pool or in a sandstorm. I dropped the current ones only vary rarely

• Shape - I prefer the replaceable rubber ear tips (what are they actually called?) to the hard nubs

I added more hard drives to my windows PC to dual boot as a test, then added another drive to actually play since I was enjoying Linux. My third OS isn't bootable any more. What have I done wrong?

Started off with Windows 10 on a SATA drive with an M.2 drive for more data.

Added a 2Gb NVME with Debian - this has become my daily driver. I haven't been to windows more than a few minutes a week.

Added another 250Gb SATA drive to test and play with another Debian install so I don't break my daily driver.

Tried today to boot into the test OS and It's just missing from GRUB? It doesn't show up as a bootable drive in my UEFI BIOS either, though the drive itself is seen.

From KDE Partition Manager in my daily driver Debian, the drives are:

/dev/nvme01 - the daily driver Debian

/dev/sda - the Windows OS drive

/dev/sdb - the windows M.2 drive

/dev/sdc - the test Debian drive (not booting)

I would appreciate help. While there's not much on that drive, I would like to continue my playing around.

Thanks in advance.
