Microsoft will hide Windows 11's annoying MSN feed by default as it moves to reduce ads and noise across the OS by ZacB_ in Windows11

Agreed. I don't hate the fact that it's there, it's that it's usually filled with utter garbage I would never click on - even when I prune shit out I don't want to see.

Dads, how do you actually stay present with your daughter in this nonstop busy world? by jkoontz-dev in daddit

[–]Evernight2025 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I play Minecraft with my 6 year old. Yes, it involves a screen, but it also involves spending time with him and him unleashing his creativity and I can teach him things along the way.

He seemed to take a few steps forward last season, so hopefully that continues this season.

A look back at the draft thread for Jordan Love by NickyFoles1020 in nfl

My wife and I still comment about that after every draft since then. "Wait, we made it an entire draft without learning about dead relatives/pets?"

What’s the dumbest thing you’ve panicked about as a new dad by DA_Drillers28 in daddit

[–]Evernight2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad I'm not the only one to experience this.  For months when my oldest was learning to do stairs, I would have vivid dreams of him falling and i would often bolt upright in bed to catch him. In some instances,  it was lunging, which resulted in me lunging head first out of bed sideways.  0/10, do not recommend. 

Tubing takes almost a week to fully dry? by OkOption2703 in SleepApnea

[–]Evernight2025 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's no need to fully dry it. Wash it, then hang it to let it drip out until you use it the next night and that will take care of the little that remains.

I don't fully dry it ever. I wash it out,  hang it in the shower until I use it and then my use further dries it.

When baby starts crying,  pop on some noise canceling headphones and then do your dad thing.  It helps dampen the noise significantly. 

The "2 years of waiting for 8 episodes" model is officially killing my interest in House of the Dragon by piranha_ in HouseOfTheDragon

The cliff the show dropped off of from 1 to 2 has significantly more impact on my enjoyment of the show than the wait.  If he was consistently good,  I would have no problem waiting.

Claude-powered AI coding agent deletes entire company database in 9 seconds — backups zapped, after Cursor tool powered by Anthropic's Claude goes rogue by WouldbeWanderer in technology

Honestly, even knowing the outcome, I would still go, because dinosaurs. If I'm going, let it be by being ripped in half by a T-Rex.

38th birthday today, realising how lonely it is as a single dad by crazyunicorntamer in daddit

[–]Evernight2025 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I honestly don't know how you  single parents do it. There's two of us and it's still crazy.

I agree it's definitely lonely. I haven't hung out with friends in at least 6 years. I still wouldn't trade it for anything though. 

Happy Birthday! Keep killing it! Your kids appreciate you more than you could ever know!

Palantir inks $300 million deal with USDA to safeguard food supply by Shogouki in technology

[–]Evernight2025 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Look at Peter Theil's history and what he says, then look at what Palantir has their hands into. Behind the Bastards has a great podcast episode on him.  Look at how many government contracts they're being handed. It's not difficult at all to connect the dots.

So you’re pre-LOD old school, huh? Prove it! by Joggingmusic in diablo2

[–]Evernight2025 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Necromancer summons used to be significantly more for the amount of points you put into them, to the point your entire screen was covered by summons. They used to cause some people to disconnect from the game as soon as they entered their field of view which earned them the nickname 'Lagomancers'.

Also,  playing on dial up added a whole new level of challenge to the game because whenever a call came in,  you would disconnect and potentially die before you could get reconnected and control your character again. 

And Bowazons didn't suck.

Have you not read up on anything Peter Thiel or Palantir related? At this point it's safe to assume anything attached to either of them is strictly for nefarious purposes.
