Stuff could be anything, digital or physical, but the idea is of discussing and doing it as a hobby without any pressure or push to make it a business or side-gig. Nothing against that, simply that communities/groups with that atmosphere are easy enough to find as-is.
I’ve had those depressive thoughts, I’ve fought self harm and depression. I have mostly gotten past it and during the period, I don’t think I ever saw light at the end of the tunnel.
I’m glad she is able to get the relief she needs. I couldn’t imagine putting someone through the turmoil that I had during my lowest points. It’s sad, but it’s okay for things to be sad in life. I’m glad she is able to have frank discussions on her desires and her wellbeing. It’s going to be hard for her partner, friends, and family, but it would be so much worse and so traumatic if she didn’t have help or had to hide the desires until she took her own life regardless of the laws.
There is a reg key to add that disables bing search.
What I fucking hate, is that I exclusively use the start menu to start apps I’ve installed, but typing in the name of an app doesn’t show the installed app at all, just fucking ads. They literally took away the only functionality of the start menu unless I do a very intuitive method of reverting it.
Next school year, my son will be left home after school for a few hours while my wife and I are at work. I’m looking for a way to detect when he’s home and have the front door unlock (among other automation scripts that are in place)....
Perhaps don’t do it directly. But have the system assume he is home based on various things. Motion sensors, media playing, lights on or changing states. Things like that.
I used to never dream but I would go to bed with the TV on. I wanted to switch to falling asleep to music. At some point I realized I would have nightmares whenever I slept without either. It was like my brain couldn’t handle the lack of external stimuli.
But I wanted to dream more, so I started going to bed without it more and more often. Eventually those nightmares turned to dreams as I pushed through it. It was fantastical. Almost like hearing music for the first time after being deaf. It was a whole new world and I can’t get enough.
That’s what pisses me off, if the consumer knows what they’ll actually have to pay they won’t buy.
They are arguing that they should be able to lie to the consumer and trick them. They think the consumer shouldn’t be informed to make a decision on what is right for them. And once again, they are putting the business before the customer.
I keep being told it’s because of the Republicans that we can’t have nice things. So what gives in California? We should be overflowing with progressive policies.
It’s very fucking big, it’s wildly diverse, and even with a supermajority laws need to be written and passed. They also aren’t wanting to pass a bunch of stuff that causes them to lose in reelections.
Then there has been some talk of Newsom wanting to lay the foundation for a possible presidential campaign at some point.
How many different neighborhoods are there in just the City of LA alone? How many of them would agree on how to run the city?
How do you align the interests of the gay urban city dwellers, the film industry down south, the tech industry up north, and the farmers in the central valley?
I would have had a hard time restraining myself if I walked into a room with my child handcuffed for spitting.
What a fucking failure of a person to blame their training as the reason they assaulted, bullied, and threatened a seven year old. You don’t need training to know that it’s wrong.
Furthermore, what the fuck is the point of a SRO in schools in the first place? Especially in a fucking elementary school! We know they don’t stop shooters.
I have a trusty UnRaid server that has been running great for almost 3 years now, with some kinks and headaches here and there, but mostly very stable. Now I’m entertaining the idea of setting that box up with ProxMox, and running UnRaid virtualized. The reason being that I want to use UnRaid exclusively as a NAS and then run...
I wouldn’t, you’ll lose a lot not having it manage the disks such as using dissimilar disks for the array and having it spin down unused disks. You might be able to pass disks through so the unraid VM can manage them directly, but it might be harder than I’d personally want to deal with.
If you aren’t running VMs much. Truenas scale I believe can do docker well. I’ve seen a lot of people put that in a VM on proxmox with disks passed through to be used as the NAS portion.

Goes for your home, your neighborhood, or something you’ve borrowed. It can be applied to the planet, the beach, the trail, the car, the job.
Hell, it even goes for people. Leave them a little happier, a little wiser, a little more prosperous than before.
Second rule, give people the benefit of the doubt and don’t attribute an action as the person. Did they cut you off on the road? They’re having a bad day and made a mistake. They’re speeding? Maybe they are on the way to see a loved one without much longer to live. Don’t call someone an asshole just because they made an asshole move. People are so much more than that one interaction with them.
I typically don’t care about things like hairstyle, makeup or clothes. But my wife has started giving herself a buzz cut and I simply hate it. I told her and she grew it out for a while, but she said longer hair was making her depressed and it needed to be a buzz cut. She said it just looks like her when she sees it. Part of...
Depression is a major issue that your wife will need to address. The haircut is probably just how it’s physically manifesting.
This is going to be a challenge in your relationship, but get over the hair and focus on your wife’s mental health. Be there to support her and try to get to the root of the depression. That probably means therapy and possibly medication. You’ll probably want to also get couples therapy to help explore new ways that you and your wife can work together and support each other.
You might be having issues feeling attraction because her personality is changing from her depression. It’s not just the hair, that’s just what you’re able to see and pinpoint.
This is your opportunity to step up and take care of your wife when she needs it.

Is it something you can overcome? Everyone’s body is different and that’s okay. People have different preferences and incompatibilities, but is it something to break up over?
People are making fun of you, but sexual incompatibilities are a death sentence for a relationship. If you two aren’t able to have satisfying sex for the both of you, it’s not going to work out and dragging it out will make it worse.
I just learned about this yesterday. I have a mix of a real strawberry plant and false strawberries in my backyard. The false strawberries also have mush smaller leaves. I’m planning on ripping them out so the real strawberries can grow and fill the space.

I actually have an electric stove. Which is why I’m not against them, I just don’t see them as a perfect replacement.
Honestly, I’d probably want both on a range. Use the correct tool for the job. Electric is fine for boiling water or something like cast iron that’s going to hold the heat through the duty cycles. Gas for when you need to actually have consistent heat that can be turned up and down.
