I wish I had a friend who could just be there while I tried to get it set up. Honestly, I'd peroxide pizza, beer, and video games just so I don't collapse in a mess of confusion and self doubt when something goes wrong. I don't mind doing the work, but I don't know if I have the patience to figure it all out.

I'm not much of wine drinker myself, but I once did a chef menu with the wine pairing. Every two dishes, they'd bring out a new glass of wine. It was kind blowing how the would taste one way with the first dish and a completely different way with the second dish. I'm not sure I can tell the difference between a $12 bottle and $40 bottle, but in that one meal i understood two things: first, if you know what your doing, wine and food pairings can be magical and, second, I don't know what I'm doing.

Sounds like you had a wonderful patient who was grateful for you doing your craft. Do a compliment sandwich, but do it sincerely.

Complement Boundary Complement

"Oh my. I'm flattered. Thank you, but I'm not comfortable with that right now. You've been a wonderful patient and I enjoyed working with you too."

This is just an example of the compliment sandwich structure and you should adjust the wording to serve you.

As for the phone number, just tell him that you were doing your job and seeing him better is all the reward you need. Again, adjust the wording for your truth.

People need to get over the candidate BS

In one sense this true. Policies are set by a small army of party elites and admins. Presidents aren't just policy makers though. They are the face of a country. Their words are powerful and institutions react to them. They also project a sense of competency and vitality to the world.

it’s the politicians who deliberately trample them and keep these people in a perpetual state of misery, and then use racism to distract them from their pains.

I think this is a one sided analysis putting all the blame on the Republicans. It fails to wrestle with purple states that became red states like Florida and the inability for Democrats to make lasting in roads in purple states.

I just can’t believe the Red party is still given any serious consideration.

Personally, I turn to history when I want to understand something that confounds me. It would be better if I could actually talk to some people and really hear them. But I live a major metropolitan center in a blue state so my access is limited.

Noice.

How do you measure that for weight loss?

Yes! 100% this. The closest thing I've seen is Quick Accent in Power Toys for Windows. But something like what you've described is what I've always wanted.

I also thought about mapping this to Auto Hotkey, but didn't bother after finding Quick Accent.

The one struggling to keep it's head above water?

Brazil is no longer a state in Mexico after it moved to China.

This article has a hard paywall, so I found another source.

According to this article it seems the impact was limited because it only effected the most recent Debian server release. So the issue was limited, discovered quickly, and easily fixed.

The recent windows issues was extensive for all windows machines, discovered after massive outages, and difficult to fix.

I'm not sure this is a win for Linux, but there a number of decisions that CrowdStrike made that failed to live up to the trust issue by WHQL certification.

I think that this didn't have the same extent for Linux is pure luck.

Each one of these recommendations raises more questions that previous one.
