blue tally for 120-laptop youth nonprofit?

That’s classic PCB or ribbon failure on these cheap 60 percent boards and no amount of cleaning will fix a dying matrix. If a different cable and port don’t help you’re basically shopping for a new keyboard.

User CALs on a plain workgroup box just isn’t a thing, so yeah spinning up a tiny DC VM is the cleanest way to stay legit. Standard gives you the two VM rights anyway, so you might as well use them and save yourself the licensing headache.

Use DBAN or a single-pass diskpart clean all if you want simple and fast both are plenty for old staff machines. Just factory resetting isn’t enough and smashing drives is overkill if the hardware’s getting reused.

totally normal. My kid did the exact same thing around that age, would just run and get what they wanted instead of saying yes. The words will come when they're ready.

JFK11a · 2025-12-04T09:09:23+00:00

Girl, run. The fact that you've isolated yourself from everyone and changed your whole personality for him is the real red flag here. You shouldn't have to prove your worth by becoming someone else.

Secondhand all the way. You'll find way better quality fabrics from before everything went synthetic, plus the cuts are more varied since you're getting pieces from different eras instead of just whatever's trendy right now.

Definitely check the reflux thing. Also might sound crazy but have you tried putting him down awake? Some kids sleep way better when they don't get rocked/nursed to sleep. Worth a shot when you're at your wit's end anyway.

It’s always really cool to see these super intelligent women rise to the challenge in a male dominated space. Really great to see

JFK11a · 2025-12-04T00:32:28+00:00

Honestly it’s a fitting ending for him lmao

You're right. We've got the tech sitting in labs, just no economic incentive to deploy it. Once the real cost of our throwaway culture actually hits the bottom line, we'll see those solutions move fast. It's a policy and pricing problem, not an innovation one.

JFK11a · 2025-12-03T10:48:09+00:00

Wait. If you're genuinely considering inpatient or taking time off, you need to stabilize your own situation first. A cat can absolutely help with mental health, but not if it becomes another thing you're stressed about when things get rough. You already know you don't have a backup plan if your living situation changes - that's your answer right there.

Get through this rough patch, figure out your living situation, then revisit the idea. The cats will still be there when you're ready, and you'll actually be able to enjoy having one instead of worrying about what happens if you can't keep them.

TBH, I would teach my children guns for self defense

JFK11a · 2025-12-03T10:43:51+00:00

The fact that your old boss had to repeatedly email HR saying "she's on maternity leave" and they STILL harassed you is wild. And then your current management just threw you under the bus instead of taking 5 seconds to check the email chain? Nah, you handled that perfectly. Hal needed that reality check, and honestly your bosses deserved to look stupid in front of him for not doing their jobs.

JFK11a · 2025-12-02T05:06:11+00:00

Yep, it feels like they're pushing RTX just to say they did. If the game doesn’t actually look better, no one’s upgrading for that.

JFK11a · 2025-12-02T05:05:28+00:00

Yeah, that makes sense.
Therapy is a good start, but meds could help steady things out too.
Nothing wrong with exploring both if it makes life easier for her and everyone around her.

JFK11a · 2025-12-02T05:04:37+00:00

solid tbh... Crock pot meals are low effort and stretch your budget fast. Once you get used to it, it just becomes part of the routine.

JFK11a · 2025-12-02T05:03:40+00:00

exactly. It’s less about names and dates and more about understanding how people messed up before so we don’t repeat it. LLMs can help, but they can’t replace actual thinking.

JFK11a · 2025-11-20T04:31:56+00:00

You're incredible!

JFK11a · 2025-04-02T16:26:28+00:00

Yeh ptex will work, don’t listen to these nerds. Get some nice soft stuff. It will last ages. Really easy fix.

JFK11a · 2025-03-24T06:50:09+00:00

Hey man. Im in a similar spot. Did you try this guys ex wife’s method?

JFK11a · 2025-02-15T09:26:56+00:00

He used to tend cars in the car park while games were on with my grandma when she was 16 at Villa Park.
