I just watched a TV series on Netflix about this exact scenario playing out in Poland. The rural folks weren't having it but got steamrolled by the government anyway. High Water

Or maybe not lie to kids about this at all, lead them on and then let them be crushed by the realization that their parents betrayed them all this time. I'm nearly 60 and I still remember how it felt realizing that, and then being told I had to turn around and lie about it to my younger sister. I didn't make that mistake with my own kids.

I couldn't agree more. It was the whole Santagate thing that helped me become an atheist. Though the same year i figured out there was no Santa I decided to try church on for a while. It didn't stick.

There's also this that ties in:

My mother-in-law lives with us and has been diagnosed with Alzheimers. We've been dealing with it for about a year but things are progressively getting worse. What are options for care?

She gets social security, and we don’t have a lot of money ourselves and are no longer able to be with her 24/7. We are in Maryland, and are scared of what we can do. Will her medicare do anything? Is it too late for something like long term care insurance? We have no idea where to start....

Contact your county health & human services agency. Medicaid might be able to help, I don't think Medicare will.

Best way to mass delete reddit content?

I’ve decided that I want to delete my reddit account. I want to remove all of my posts and comments first. What is the best way to do this? I’ve had the account for several years so it would be too tedious to delete everything individually. So far I’ve tried the Redact android app, which did not work when I signed in. I...

I used Power Delete Suite but with the API changes it may not work anymore.

No, it's not safe at all. You should be disposing of that battery immediately.

Tail end of 58.

I don't get why this is an unpopular opinion. I love Arby's. And I'm extremely sad that the only one within a 50 mile radius closed during COVID and I can't have Arby's anymore.

Curious and Unknowledgable

Linux is interesting to me, but I’ve never dipped my toes into it because it seems really intimidating (and a lot of loud people act pretty snobbish about it towards non-Linux users, making it seem even more intimidating to get into; I’d rather not be bullied for my choices in software or my ignorance in others)....

I got my first Linux system two years ago when I was 57. I took one of the COVID checks and bought a Linux laptop from System76. I had the choice of PopOS or Ubuntu so I just took straight Ubuntu. It was set up and running when I unboxed it and everything I need to know how to do I can just do a web search for. And that's really not much. Best of all the thing starts up in seconds, when Windows was always taking its damn sweet time and shutting itself down for two and three hour updates when I needed to use it. As for gaming, that's what my PS5 is for.

Buying a pre-built, pre-installed Linux system was perfect for me. It might be what would work for you too. It takes a lot of the guesswork out of where to start.

People know the difference between fantasy and reality. Unless someone's questionable anyway I don't think pretending to be evil will change someone. People play violent video games and don't tend to go out and shoot up their neighborhoods. Same thing.

I'm speaking as a woman who's been hit on at work. We're paid to be nice to the customers and too many customers take it as some sort of come-on. It's uncomfortable to be put in that position and you should be thinking of her comfort at her place of business above your own desires if you're really into her.

Good for you for listening, and good luck.
