No, you demonstrate love and unconditional acceptance and support. Today they're babbling on about something that happened at ballet, tomorrow they trust you enough to talk about their relationships and teachers and the bully at school.

Kids have enough time in their day to learn social convention - they also just need a safe environment to unpack everything with their parents.

Well when you live in the country, they're home fries.

The thinking is that a gunshot is always lethal force. If you want to stop the threat most effectively you aim for center mass. So in this case someone is attacking you with a weapon capable of causing death or great bodily harm and legally you can defend yourself with deadly force.

My child's high school sent a letter home asking for permission to share his information and transcripts with military recruiters.

Before he passed away, my kids' grandfather bought all his grandkids their first 22 rifle. Some of the cousins were still infants but he wanted to buy them something. He was a prolific hunter and marksman. My kids guns all lived in the safe until they were old enough to shoot them, and now they live in the safe when not in use. You can give guns to kids all day long, that's not the problem and the gun is not the problem.

Connect via ssh to my home server from work

Using a cli torrent client to download stuff

Decide I need a VPN.

Install VPN again from CLI

Run VPN which disconnects my ssh connection

Even when I get home, the server is headless so I have to locate a keyboard and mouse before I can fix.

My daughter is an avid reader, and I'm looking for some recommendations for her. I'm hoping y'all can help!

Books she's read and liked:

  • Hunger Games (loved it)

  • Ballad of Songbirds and Snakes

  • Shadow and Bone

  • Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy

  • Harry Potter (loved of course)

  • Warriors

  • Ender's Game

  • Rangers Apprentice

Hopefully that's an idea of what she's into. Ideas, please?

Shaka, when the walls fell

Am I doing something wrong? I've been on Pixel devices since the first one, and on Android since Donut. For some reason it feels like I'm at the bottom of the roll out list. At this point everyone I personally know has received the 14 update and I'm still waiting (on my 7 Pro).

I'm wondering if I'll even receive it before my 8 Pro gets here in a few days. Besides spamming the button to check in the phone settings, is there something else to do that can force it sooner?

We had a son (4) and a daughter (2) and my wife really wanted a third. I wasn't that excited about the idea, because we had 2 children and one of each seemed like plenty.

I was a pretty firm "no" for a long time, but she eventually convinced me during a particularly hot and heavy night.

Our youngest is now 10 and she's an absolute joy. I can't imagine my life feeling complete without all 3 kids. It's one of the greatest things she ever conned me into doing.

Then I got a vasectomy.

Let's not forget the Fish Cam. You could press Ctrl Alt F in Netscape and go to a live stream of a fish tank in like 1994
