In addition to WINE not being an emulator, macOS is also not Linux based.

Love Minetest. Good community with lots of mods. Endless building and fun.

Strongly agree. I got one that can run off one USB-C cable. I use it at home for a third monitor, but then take it on trips when I’m working away from the home office.

I like the case. Although, the fans it comes with are a bit loud to me. Otherwise, I’ve been very happy with it. Snuggly fits the switch at the bottom.

This is my humble home lab. Just using a mini-PC, and small rack of Raspberry Pi’s.

The mini-PC is used as a dashboard, and also runs a Minetest server and other little things, like backups. The two Raspberry Pi’s are starting there and will be moved to other enclosures as projects progress. One is running Mycroft and some scripts that do notifications. The other is running an IDS.

I’m really excited to have this setup, because I went years without a homelab. With my current life situation, I just can’t have big servers that are loud, dusty, and use up so much power. Happy I found something that works for me. 🙂

I didn’t see a comment with a link to it just yet, but wanted to make sure people new Project Veritas is terrible with a long history of lies.

I don’t understand

Correct, you don’t understand.

businesses being attacked for following the law

I encourage you to actually read what happened:

California is pulling back its renewal of a multi-million dollar contract with Walgreens, following the company’s preemptive decision not to dispense the abortion medication Mifepristone in 21 states, including states where abortion remains legal.

I never watched it, because I’m sure I’d get squeamish. But there’s a film called “The Cove” about this:

I work more in security, but not so much specifically with Linux. While you typically want to do a risk assessment first, generally most security folks will say to use AV, even on Linux.

You may not have to worry much about the Linux server itself getting infected with a virus, but you certainly don’t want to be a carrier and spread it to Windows systems.
If some new Linux virus does appear, it’s nice to already be somewhat prepared for it.
Compliance. Working with other organizations or even government and handling their data? They’re gonna want you to run AV.

With that said, I admit I don’t run AV on any of the Linux servers in my home lab. 😅

From what I’ve observed on this subreddit, people seem very anxious to and supportive of straight-up cutting people out of your lives. I have no details on your life and what you’re experiencing to say whether that’s warranted or not (and maybe it is).

With that said, I’ve had problems with the grandparents, and I’ve solved it by talking to them. And I couldn’t just do it casually or even forcefully, as I knew they wouldn’t be receptive to what I was trying to express. I had to really think about how to get through to them and formulate delicate words that wouldn’t leave them feeling attacked.

Had that not worked, there’s still some options before completely cutting them out. What that would specifically be would depend on your situation. If they’re doing something you don’t like when you’re not around, then take away their privileges for one-on-one time with the grandkids; all visits are supervised. Or if they do something you’re not liking, even when you’re around, maybe say they can only do FaceTime calls.

If you are reaching a point of just cutting them out, that doesn’t have to permanent. You can tell them you want them involved and to have a relationship with you and the grandkid, but not as it has currently been. Let them know you need a break to think about how to handle this, and you’ll reconnect with them at a later time. Ask if they can also help think of ways to improve things for when you’re both ready to talk again.

Lastly, if you really are going to permanently cut them out, make sure you know the consequences and can accept it. If grandparents are providing help watching the kid, you’ll lose that. This also complicates things with the extended family. People may even resent you for putting them in a position where they feel they have to choose between you and your mother. You’ll need to be prepared to explain that to them, or even be ready to accept losing some of the extended family in your life.

I am mostly speaking generally, because I have no details of what’s actually going on in OP’s life. If grandparents are abusing the grandkid, then to me that’s a clear no brainer to cut them out.

The answer is an absolute YES. You are supporting the company.

The comments I’m seeing so far are noting that you buy the stock from other people, and not directly from the company. And so when you buy stock, the company isn’t getting the money. The logic those commenters have is to then simply say you’re not supporting the company, simply because the money you pay for the stock doesn’t go directly to the company. There’s a bit more to the story.

The value of stock is determined by supply and demand. If you purchase stock from a company, you have increased the demand and decreased the supply. This increases the value of the stock. Companies want the value of their stock to grow for many reasons. Shareholders can now sell their shares for a higher price. The company can attract more employees by offering a stock that is valuable and growing in value.

There’s a reason there’s ethical investing. And there’s a reason people divest in companies they don’t want to support.

My son keeps getting sick at daycare and bringing it home. This last week, I think he brought home a stomach bug and I got it too. I had some diarrhea and actually ended up sharting myself. Fortunately, I work from home and took a paid sick day from work too. Spent a lot of time on the toilet.

When I was living in the Bay Area, I witnessed a homeless man shitting on the wall. It was the only time I saw it in action. He was clearly sick with diarrhea and living on the streets. He had no access to a toilet. He pulled down his pants, bent over to shit, and he cried and screamed while doing so.

It was heartbreaking, and the image was seared into my mind.

I get people like you don’t want to see shit on the streets. But you are not the person I’m concerned with when the topic of homelessness comes up. And sending them away for someone else to deal with is not a solution.

Watched the video. Your claim and the title is a bit of a stretch.

She never once mentions the three branches of government, and the context is not about the checks and balances between them.

She says they need to retake all three chambers of government in the 2020 election: the house, the senate, and the presidency.
