what is thisyarty thing

I stand most of the time. I have a wobble board which helps - standing in one place isn't possible. I've been interested in a treadmill for a while, but they make it hard to do anything else and sometimes I want to sit or lean back.

Qwerty wasn't designed to slow people down. when you account for practice time no layout is significantly different in the real world. The limit is how fast you think not how fast your fingers move.

Sams club attracts different customers from WalMart and so they don't have the same crime concerns.

We have a similar setup where I work (enough different to think they don't work with me, but who knows). It was done like that in our case because we ship embedded linux. Because we are building on linux and targeting linux we kept running into problems with people linking local system libraries that were not compatible with the target even though they had the same name. We eventfully wrote out own package management tool which locked things down so you can't make that mistake - the same month we hit 1.0 conan did their first public release, if canan has been 2 years sooner we would have just contributed to that instead and saved a ton of effort, but now we have too many sunk costs in our current tools and so it isn't worth changing to a new one.

Walmart spent millions on rfid trying to do this. Howevera cart full of razor blades would always not read something so they gave up.

as others have said what you ask for evists - but only where most people are honest enough to not cheat. Where stores don't trust everyone the cost of verification is more than any savings.

Not just americans. this started in the uk https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Andrew_Wakefield

Antivaxx was for decades a fringe left wing thing. Then they discovered the 'freedom' message and got a lot of right wing in. But there are plenty of lift wing areas in danger.

It isn't lake/rive vs ground water. It is about what the water goes through / touches. Places where the water touches limestone will get lime scale. Some wells have more scale than others. Some lakes have very hard water. It is about where you live.

Touch screens still were not perfectly fine. At least not as they are implemented today. I have a medical condition that is eased by heated seats, I notice how long it take to get them on when I first sit down.

They have been publicly moving in this direction for a few years. They cynical play is they pushed the new safety standards because they are ready and want to cause their competition problems as they are forced to rush buttons back (who knows, but it wouldn't surprise me)

Maybe you are wrong. Unfortunately there is no way to know until after the fact. IF you find a great relationship that lasts that is a great thing. However that is a big if, many many people do, but many others think they have and then separate after some time to great heartache.

Career is something you do to live. If you love your job that can be a bad sign - you may accept abuse just to stay doing it. Even if the job doesn't abuse you, you will have days when you are sick of it (not might, you will!). There will be parts of your job that have to be done but you don't want to do them.

In short I think putting career first is wrong. However it may well be that you don't have a better option. Be open to a better option if you come across it, but searching for a worthwhile relationship is often not worth the cost. You have to open yourself up enough to get hurt before you can find out of it is a good relationship or not.

Remember you will die. In the meantime you need to eat, you need shelter. Most people find love is high on the things they want next. Also remember that the right answer for your will change over time.

The US does not like losing soldiers. It happens, but we hate it. Even if we would win the war, losing a few thousand soldiers would be something we don't like.

This is something most functional democracies share.

The counter to that is why would you let anyone have a weapon they could use on you. There is no particular reason it had to be the US that turns, it could be anyone.

It is Mozilla the non-profit I want gone, along with their wholly owned for profit company that controls firefox.

I'm surprised he has that power. Taxes should come from congress.

I tried home assistant in docker. Easyetoeget working but for some unknown they make it hard to install extentions so I couldn't get some things working.

i installed openhab instead which works though there are less extentions available.

Email is often impossible. you can run your own server but you won't be able to send email to many people because gmail and other larre providers will ignore everything from any ip address you can get. you endeup with email for only people on you server and the what is the point.

just a warning there. Some do self host email but it is the most difficult to host. My life is much better now that I pay fastmail to handle my email.

Start small. The hard part isn't installing a lot of software and getting it running. The hard part is keeping everything updated over time. So install one interesting service, and then figure out how the update process goes before installing another. Hopefully the worst thing that happens is you install services and use them only to have the computer fail in a few years after you depend on them and you can't figure out how to get the data into the new version. There is also the very real possibility that your service is compromised by an attacker.

I name them after a female important character in whatever novel I'm enjoying when I set the system up. Back when I was single the female was important, now it is just tradition.

Since I like fantasy there are plenty of names available that are both pronounceable and nonsense.
