Just tell him respectfully, sometime.
As a parent, myself:
That sounds entirely reasonable.
There’s been some great ideas here, but I like yours the best.
Bill Burr complaining about being forced to be the pope would be amazing.
“I’m not going to lead mass. Leading mass is Charlie Work!”
Does anyone have any clue?
My best guess would be some relatively passive notification stealing focus.
As reddeadhead mentioned, there’s specific “don’t steal focus” settings. I’ve had good luck with them.
Great analogy.
I think it’s fair to tweak it and leave that second library with full accountability for the lack of desirability.
Domain names don’t start out undesirable, they build their reputation from the content and users.
So it’s like building a second library in a perfectly nice spot, and having that library attract people who dump pollution into the surrounding area, making it undesirable.
I don’t know enough about it to confidently say they’re going to lose all their money
It happened to my relative. They didn’t lose everything, but they lost enough that they’re shopping for a mobile home for retirement, when they previously could have bought a small house.
Plausible explanation.
Immutable distros can usually be set to mutable with the correct privileged command.
It’s essentially security by obscurity. But I disagree with “no benefit”. An infection miss through dumb luck is still a miss, after all.
I used to always use Minecraft for this. Sure, they can’t do everything immediately, but I put the game on peaceful and let them explore at their own pace.
I say “used to” because Luanti (formerly MineTest, an open source Minecraft Clone*) is finished and free.
(Okay, Luanti is a lot more than a Minecraft clone. But for this discussion that’s all one needs to know.)
Nice. Minecraft used to be my go to answer for a first WASD game, too.
Lately, I recommend Mineclonia on Luanti, because it’s free and has stronger optimizations supporting weak laptops and big multiplayer servers. (It’s a popular Free Open Source Minecraft Clone).
This was really helpful. Thank you.
I remember those days, as well!
I bought a “fixer-upper” recently, so I fill most days off with minor home repair projects. I’m using it as an excuse to build a decent little project workbench, though.
I’m with you.
Thankfully, corporate bullahit isn’t the only way to create a discovery algorithm.
I expect that we will have a diverse set of discovery algorithms available to opt into here, in a few years.
I always wonder about the people who drop off just before finishing the game.
That’s me. It used to be common for games to have a sharp ramp up in challenge at the end boss, and I often don’t have the time to get through that.
So I habitatually abandon games when I feel close to the end, and I watch the ending on a stream, instead of playing it.
I realize that minimal research could tell me which games are which, but even less research finds me a decent stream of the game ending.
A manufacturer phone pre-installed with LineageOS would be awesome.
Uh… So no gift. Got it.
