There’s a certain irony there, no? 🤣
If anything, I’d imagine they picked Vance because he was willing and eager to do whatever it takes to win.
There were a number of other choices lined up too: https://nymag.com/intelligencer/article/trump-vp-pick-2024-candidates-odds.html
FWIW, I’m referring to the local DNS (domain name system) resolver; the mechanism that resolves local domain names into IP addresses so that computers can talk to each other over the LAN.
We already learned that in the aftermath of Jan 6th.
My question is why do these people continue lining up to serve said “king”?
Here is a good primer on the configuration files and their possible locations: https://www.freedesktop.org/software/systemd/man/latest/resolved.conf.html
Edit: be careful because this is your domain name lookup you’re messing with. 😊
I hate the fact that for the longest time, iOS would autocorrect fuck to duck. And worse yet, they touted no longer autocorrecting it as a new feature as part of their WWDC keynote.
Good point. I did not consider this. Thank you.
You make a terrifyingly interesting point. I did not consider this. Thank you.
Not short stories, but I have two books that I read in high school that have stuck with me more than most:
I have a smart tv, washer, and dryer. None of them are connected to a network. They can’t do anything “smart” without a network. You don’t need to take apart or disconnect anything. In fact, doing so could cause problems if you nick the wrong wire or component.
Just leave it be and you should be fine.
Brother, I feel a lot of what you wrote. You’re not alone, ok? It’s hard to claw your way out of these deep holes you did. Yourself in; but not impossible. It’s not a matter of desire or effort either. No one wants to live this way.
Now, I challenge you to do three things (assuming you do t already; I don’t know because you didn’t mention it):
Instead of listing the things you fuck up, or suck at, or hate yourself over, I want you to instead list five things you like about yourself.
It’s going to be hard. You’re going to draw blanks. You’re also going to want to add this to your ever-growing of things you hate about yourself (don’t).
But give it time and practice. If you can’t think of five, think of one and then move on with your day. Keep trying each day until you can reach five things, and then increase it to ten.
If you miss a day here or there, that’s okay. This is for you and you only. I’ll get you started though:
I don’t know you from Adam and I was able to come up with five positive things about you. So I know you’ll do just fine with finding more affirmations.
Seek medical help (no, really, hear me out). Find a Doctor to discuss your adhd/add. Also look into a therapist to talk to about this. It’s amazing how much it can help. And even if you feel like you can’t afford, then look for low-cost solutions.
I’ll keep this advice to the minimum because I’m not a doctor and you should never get medical advice from the internet.
Talk to your wife about all of this. Yes, it’s a lot to put in someone, but she loves you and doesn’t want you to through this alone. Let her help you.
I lied. I thought of a fourth thing. Take a nap. When you get so worked up like you described, it may just be a sign that you’re physically and mentally tired. A nap can help you feel better. If you can’t take a nap, maybe take a hot shower. Stand under the water and let it cover you.
Look, take everything I said above with a grain of salt. Like I mentioned, I don’t know you, so my advice may be way off base. But, some things are harmless to try (like affirmations or napping/showering).
Anyway, from one lost soul to another, I hope you find your way through. I know I’ll be rooting for you.
You make mostly good points — I still disagree, but I can at least see your side.
The divorce and kids thing though is not what you think it is. Divorce and child custody agreements are two separate legal things and child custody agreements are thankfully not a matter of public record.
I don’t like the existence of billionaires anymore than the next reasonably-sane pleb does. But someone’s financial/social status should never be a consideration to their constitutional right of privacy. You’ll just have to find some other way to harangue them for their behavior.
Why? To publicly humiliate a person? Not everyone is evil; people fall on hard times. It happens. A lot. Why should they be further harassed by predatory practices of being offered loans after they’ve hit the rock bottom of their financial world? Because the first thing that happened when I filed for bankruptcy was to be offered a mortgage loan.
I believe some things (like DMV records) are fee based. But the fee is nominal and wouldn’t stop any predator from doing bad things if they are so inclined. The only thing adding fees does is to financially incentivize keeping the data online and accessible to anybody who pays.
The first thing I expect of anybody is to read and comprehend the things they reply to.
Nowhere in my comment did I say that people should stop creating communities. In fact, what I did say was that we should be able to categorize communities using tags. I even suggested that people. For example, using these tags to filter or find communities of interest.
So yeah, there’s that. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I’ve never understood why things like this have to be a part of public record. Traffic accidents, traffic citations, bankruptcies, buying a house, and even getting divorced.
All of those are very personal things that should never be a part of public record. And even if they are, the PII should not.
Call it what you will, it’s a travesty and should be taken very seriously. But, this is the south, and most southerners love to mince words; especially when it comes to race and politics.
You forgot that words can, and do, have multiple meanings depending on context. There is a more vulgar definitely that defines diddling as “to have sex with”.
I knew a girl in college that had lost her sense of smell. This was 20 years before covid, so that wouldn’t have been the cause. Maybe this loomer person has no sense of smell.
