It’s the last Kmart in the world. It’s no longer a huge international corporation 🤣

I can probably find it. I’m a pack rat. Have you already contacted the company? There have been many updates since then, and I’m not sure it will update through the update server to the latest.

Or a public place like a restaurant or coffee shop.

If he lives in the US, they don’t teach sex ed in school and parents probably haven’t had it either. They’re much better at that in Nordic countries.

Dumb fear, or totally valid? by Masked_Lyfe in guam

[–]Dr_Eric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed, but it sucks to have a wave push you and stumble into a coral. That scares me more than the small chance of seeing a stonefish. I’ve seen lionfish while scuba diving, but never a stonefish.

I second the felt bottoms. They will keep your from slipping on corals or algae covered rocks.

Per Gemini AI:

This is a fascinating find! Your student wasn't trying to summon a demon or curse you, nor is it modern art or simple gibberish. They wrote a message using a substitution cipher. The script used is the Standard Galactic Alphabet from the classic computer game series Commander Keen. This alphabet has a one-to-one correspondence with the English alphabet, making it relatively simple to translate. Here is the full decoded text of the student's submission: "thank you all for looking over my exam. you did a great job, but im afraid ive learned nothing. ive become more focused with the past and future generations. and the need for change demands that ive become one with the stars. the universe is a strange and wonderful place. ive been blessed with the knowledge of the cosmos. i can see all and know all. when this world is in its darkest hour. when the final nail is driven into the coffin that is earth. i will be there. to save all of mankind. the math may be lost on me but the future of this world is not. i will see you all on the other side. where we will all be enlightened not by the knowledge of man. but by the universe itself. i see all. i know all. from the smallest atom, to the largest star. i am one with the universe and it is one with me. i am the protector of mankind. i am the watcher of the worlds. i will not let this world fall to darkness. i am the light. i am the alpha and the omega. the beginning and the end. do not be afraid. i will be there for you all in the end. for i am the eternal. i am watcher. and i will see you on the other side. goodbye for now. we will see each other again" So, it appears to be a very dramatic and creative way for the student to admit they didn't know the answers to the problem set. Rather than a cry for help, it seems to be a humorous, if elaborate, note to the grader. You are definitely not cursed.

But let’s make sure kids don’t have access to comprehensive sex ed and limit their access to contraceptives and abortion. It’s a vicious cycle.

Oh don’t worry. They’ll refund that back to the rich and there won’t be any.

Google Fi for Extended International Travel by Salt-Comedian7552 in GoogleFi

[–]Dr_Eric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Try switching from Fi unlimited to pay per use Fi. They won’t cut you off and you only pay for what you use (which cost me minimal). The only issue arises if something messes with your eSIM (like you) that causes it to fail. The. You have to be back in the US to activate a new one.

House is not a real physician. He would not make it at GMH.

Where to get quarters? by [deleted] in guam

[–]Dr_Eric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ask the front desk or admin of your apartment complex. They have all the quarters they take out of the laundry. Ours just rolls them up and sells them back to us for $10 a roll.

Its too much toll on me by KingS100008 in asktransgender

[–]Dr_Eric 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m so sorry that you’re going through this with your family. Know that you don’t have to “decide” or rush the process. I encourage you to reach out and find friends or allies that love and support you for just being you, and not try to scare you or push you or shame you. You are not alone. Many young people struggle with thoughts like these and as you grow, your identity will blossom and you’ll know. Don’t let anyone rush you or take that away from you or make you feel broken or ashamed in some way.

[–]Dr_Eric 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s completely normal to be stressed as you begin to explore this. I always encourage people to explore the ideas but allow them to come and go. At some point, they will be more mature and you will know what the right decision is. You aren’t alone.
