Fellow 90s kid, my parents were exactly the same. Religious background, fox news constantly, I once didn’t text back within 2 hours and had a neighbor contacted via Facebook knocking on my door in my 30s (to be fair I work on call so it’s atypical). I got lectured at 18 for buying an m rated game in front of them… Police report was a bit much; but I you aren’t alone.

Side note I would recommend this nostalgic song: high fives - 90s kid anthem by Dr awkward

First off, it’s important to understand Responsive Design and why you shouldn’t be writing your own css these days as a newbie. Bootstrap is a public css doc with a lot of those problems pre-solved, so you might want to look up some of their tooling.

As far as a website: you’ll need a domain name, you can get some for free, but they usually have short renewals otherwise this is unavoidable.

You can pay for “shared hosting” at any of the major vendors like blue host or GoDaddy and get apache or aspx file hosting for like you said $X0/year.

You can use an s3 static website for ~free. Creating a DNS hosted zone is $.50. but you can create an s3 bucket (think flash drive in the cloud) store a threshold of free documents, and publish them as a website all within the free tier of AWS. This has some technical background and AWS can get expensive of you make mistakes (although this shouldn’t scale much unless you upload a thousands ton of files repeatedly)

Alternatively you can use GitHub pages . Git is a tool used by developers to share and edit code, they let you publish free HTML as well, but requires learning git or figuring out a tool with a UI like source tree. I don’t think you can use custom domains with this though.

Although if you have any interest in tech, you can also create a free nginx docker container through a lot of services like ecs, but you can also self host in a “sandbox”. Docker creates a mini virtual machine with all of the code required to run self contained. Nginx let’s you create HTML docker containers by mounting a directory. ~ docker start nginx /website/directory And it just runs self contained.

Awkwardly ignoring the nationals in the Somoa, Guam and Virgin Islands. You can even make a case for Wales and Ireland. This is unfortunately common the more I think about it.

Advanced classes, this student is likely pushing valedictorian/honors.

I just purchased a refurb 16g m1 air for $350 for myself for this exact reason. I hate the osx environment but it’s the best deal right now for a budget device and it doesn’t have windows. Linux doesn’t like the security chip but it’s not a blocker for cutting over you just need to disable a feature flag…

06:30-02:30 (note the 0!) means 6:30 am to 2:30 am the following day. Anything in pm would be +12 hours. 6:30 pm becomes 18:30; 2:30pm is 14:30. Using this format you want 06:30-14:30 which is 8 hours.

This format is important because it actually solves the problem you are trying to explain (am/pm). Regularly I need to give EST database timestamps for a PST server cluster while living in another timezone myself and speaking to someone in India which is :30min difference in time zones and trying to account for daylight savings. Removing am/pm just makes it easier to track what happens in different places without looking at the wrong time window. Time math is messy and stupid, be specific by using 24 hours instead of 12

Edit: I guess no one works in timestamps, keep on being terrible for the rest of us.

Edit 2: if you don’t understand how time works, reconsider your opinion. Spreading misinformation is damaging

A common way of manipulating people is to deny them parts of being human. Be wary of any organization that tries to control your food or sex. Fasting and abstinence are massive red flags that the organization is toxic.

Dogs do what their owners do, if the owners a choncc, their dogs a choncc. Not to mention that dogs usually have the same food habits their owners do (open bowl, larger servings, sharing unhealthy people food)

This is a complicated problem but the answer is likely ~socialism. The scenario you presenting is fix forward and try to retain the current economic status quo, which is imbalanced and rewards power and exploitation. We really should be living in a world where basic needs are guaranteed for everyone by a regulated market with multiple stakeholders keeping the process honest. Giving a single entity power generally doesn’t last longer than a generation or two.

I have yet to hear about bitwarden getting pwned

Honestly this is the part that scares me the most. Well maybe it’s the fact we have multiple plausible scenarios… What happens when you get locked out of bitwarden? I imagine the 256 randomized salted hash passwords will be hard to call, some companies will likely be able to restore your password via phone support. During that time, informed attackers will potentially have the master keys to your entire life. Fighting ai chatbots trying to recall security questions. During that time your phone and Internet service could be shut off, secondary emails changed and validated, money transferred out of bank accounts, stocks and crypto sold. Crowdstrike was a valuable security company.

This is not healthy advice, but I take 3 Tylenol pm( no acetaminophen) ~2.5h before bed (over the years it’s increased, and needed to start much earlier and I’m quite tall) melatonin ~1h before bed and start my nightly routine. By the time the sleepy pills kick in, you are out. Plan for either 6 or 8 hours to align with rem sleep cycle and be sure to get out of bed asap in the morning and be sure to replace fluids. When I regulated my sleep schedule, I was able to significantly better manage my life. I wish you luck.

Edit: buy the one without acetaminophen, I guess I wasn’t clear on that? Benadryl has the active sleep ingredient

You can’t grep dead trees, password managers are only as secure as their infrastructure which are constantly being backdoored, socially engineered and poorly administered. Anyone that trusts a simple security solution is a fool.

Jews don’t recognize Jesus.

Protestants don’t recognize the Pope.

Mormons don’t recognize each other in wendover

My rhcsa expired and I only have experience beyond that. Your task right now is to find a job and the easiest way to do that is to leverage your network. If you don’t have a network, you need to prove that you can commit to a long term plan and learn a skill. Most people do that with degrees. Unfortunately a lot of people have degrees and technology is getting more competitive. That’s where you see school competitions and certifications. If you don’t want to do that, you’ll need to be able to speak competently to the role.

Unfortunately right now I do not recommend platform/devops/sre for anyone breaking into the field. If I create an application today, it’s server less or bring your own dockerfile on a provided machine image. So what are you administrating? Legacy shops will be around for decades, but the future here is layered architecture not os tasks.

I’m surprised that no one has mentioned this is essentially the plot of fallout. The billionaires will solve climate change by culling the poor “destroying the world”.

Depends on which ones:

Booth babes are mostly making minimum wage + 50% to be hired as a model. ~$20 usd

If you see her name anywhere she’s getting an appearance fee $1000/hr+ but that usually applies to local celebrities or hired talent.

I debated signing in multiple times myself, finally got it validated for a feature that was never enabled. Fuck off Google

Wouldn’t the object need to be something of deep importance to the individual or be a poetic representation? I always assumed the volleyball was a symbol of everything he left behind. Things like recreation no longer mattered; only survival. :shrug: but I also thought the movie sounded incredibly boring. If you want a random item, go for qualities like “awkward to carry” or “gets hot when left in the sun”. Give your characters personality or force them to choose that object at a moment it’s inconvenient.

• An oversized diamond/ faberge egg - it’s valuable, heavy or fragile and inconvenient, in a critical moment your character may need to smash it against something risking damage
• Teddy Roxbury/furby - favorite toy growing up? Creepy voice at stalking moments? Mid point twist when the batteries die?
• Harmonica - potentially a little Disney princess forest friend vibes
• Bowling ball - Wilson prolly plays a little different when it’s not feasible to take him on a raft, prevents you from climbing trees and burns precious calories transporting. Mobility is now a plot point. Decent weapon tho
• Toilet plunger/brush - everyday object that can be utilized differently, maybe adds that little bit extra reach to save the day?

Thanks for the clarification, I’m not completely on top of the issues that a lot of this community faces with them. I intended it to mean the collective company as a business entity, which was incorrect.
