Do you see this being challenged anywhere? I'm only on piefed, and it all seems pretty sane here. And IRL the groups I move in get it. But there are plenty of others who could undo it all.
I almost feel like putting up posters around the neighborhood or something.
Yeah, I think something like this is good, and was a mainstay in the early 2000's personal web pages.
Another approach I like (but also dislike because of a bug preventing my site being indexed) is https://aboutideasnow.com/
I almost feel the idea of being "emasculated" is a made up mislabeling of a feeling born of something else that's going on in the person's life.
I'm about as a heteronormative male as you'll find, but I can't say (in my adult life) I've ever felt negativity about the role I play in the house, family, etc, and I do a lot of the child raising, house work, etc.
The negative feelings I get are around not being "useful", or appreciated, or given the space to do the things I do to recharge.
To me, the whole point of having kids is to raise them, teach them, hang out with them, help them, enjoy their company, etc. if you just want to go to work to provide for them, I'm not entirely sure having kids was such a good idea. Kids need your love and attention, and they are only here because you brought them here.
Of course, I know some people have no choice, and that is sad. And sometimes you think you want one thing, and it doesn't feel right when you get there. But I'd hope neither of those things should get tied up in gender roles.
Maybe we just need some more openness about these things so we get some good role models, and reassurance we're doing the right thing?
Parenting is the hardest thing I've ever done, and it's very different person to person, family to family, and a far stretch from the fantasy that's shown on TV. Made harder by the way we've structured our societies.
I've had that same silent Snap install issue, except for Docker CE. Anytime my dev containers die I know where to look.
Thank you for this. I'm actually trying a Rust-Oleum primer for this, so I'll check out their varnish too. And I'll get setup PPE wise.
Regarding the print, this one is a pirate chest to be used as a money box for my son. Other than the hinge there are no really moving parts, but I expect it'll get banged around a bit, hence thinking I need the clear coat at all.
Thanks, I'll give that a go.
It is good advice I think. I guess my question was, do they mean any clear varnish, like Deluxe Spray Gloss Clear, or is there something else I should be using.
It's no surprise that those with money who are being impacted are making as much noise as possible. It really irked me when there was all that startup meme rubbish, mainly because of how misleading and disingenuous it was.
But, I think there is room for improvement. I take the view that two of the main problems Australia has are:
lack of personal financial security because people don't live in their own homes, part of which is the cost of living issues, homelessness, and just general fear which leads to a lot of the right wing opportunism.
Poor business environment, caused by high operating costs (see point 1 - it's the same cause) and poor funding environment. This in turn leads to a lack of sovereign capabilities, meaning we buy foreign services riddled with surveillance (see electric cars, online services, government services contracts, etc).
What we need is housing not to be used for speculation, and high investor returns, and have it used for providing security and shelter to people.
We need that money to now be put into Australian businesses. Specifically new and small businesses, but really, any business that actually does things in the world, employs Australians, and adds to our national capability.
Make a carve out for those businesses (not just startups) so the tax sector incentives building Australia's capabilities, not rent seeking, not speculation, not investing in foreign assets.
