I use 10.x.x.x addresses at home, though split into /24 networks in each vlan.

I have the same issue (TRIPLE NAT'd! One of which is the CGNAT). Unfortunately I have external family that accesses from media boxes/TVs so those won't work for me.

Thankfully I was able to get a small VPS server for $2/mo and set up some reverse tunnels with auto-ssh. Seems to be working fairly well so far.

All that said, I longingly look forward to the future when I don't have to worry about NAT.

"God works in mysterious ways"

I'm sure it flew right down his throat.

That was the first thing I thought of.

Out of everything we have today, Discord is arguably the best we've got.

That's amazingly depressing.

Because up until Broadcom bought them, it was a good product with a ton of useful features, endless supported integrations with 3rd party software and hardware, relatively easy to learn/use, with good support, all at reasonable and flexible price points depending on your needs.

Of course Broadcom has now thrown all of that into the toilet...

Steam had been making Linux pretty darn good for gaming too, even for games that are technically Windows only.

(Art. I, 9, cl. 8): "[NJo Person holding any Office of Profit or Trust under [the United States], shall, without the Consent of the Congress, accept of any present, Emolument, Office, or Title, of any kind whatever, from any King, Prince, or foreign State'

Unfortunately this doesn't sufficiently cover things like 'Random Russian Billionaire Oligarch" so long as there is the slightest modicum of a veil of separation from "any King, Prince or State".

So for example, as long as Putin secretly tells his billionaire buddy to go pay off Trump and to keep it hush hush, this clause is even more toothless than it already is in practice.

Yup. Looks like I'm making a trip to Dallas this weekend...

They have one called "Pink Drink". It's not available bottled, The only place I ever had it was at Austin City limits Festival a few years before the pandemic. It's kind of a Prickly-pear Lemonade flavored soda. It was without a doubt the most delicious, refreshing beverage I have ever consumed, and the fact that I've never been able to find it since then is actually one of the biggest disappointments of my life.

I had garlic ice cream at the Gilroy Garlic Festival in California. Everyone leaving the free sample line had the exact same expression on their face as they tried the first taste:

Slightly scrunched up have with an expression that said, "I was really expecting this to be horrible but it's not bad. Not great, but not bad."

"Why do we even have that lever?!"

There's a phrase you might give useful/insightful.

"Trust, but verify"

I use auto pay extensively so that if I forget (ADHD, yay) it still gets paid. But I do (try to) check every month that all the auto pay stuff did trigger properly.

The problem isn't them being in you LAN. It's about going to an untrusted network (eg Starbucks, hotel) and connecting to your VPN, boom, now your VPN connection is compromised.

There were two.

1. Every time he farted it was awful so we'd shoo him out of the room. Eventually, he'd immediately walk out of the room right AFTER he farted.
2. We'd end the day watching TV in the living room. Eventually he learned that the click of the TV meant it was time to go to bed, so any time the TV got turned off, he'd get up and go into his bed in our bedroom.

Can we start the 1st on Sunday though so every month has a Friday the 13th?

Canon Rebel T6 with a 75-300mm lens (zoomed in to 300mm). This was one of the last shots right before I put the solar filter back on.

Yes and no. For the clouds that we did have, yes, the eclipse was enough to affect those.

However, for the clouds that we had earlier in the day, and that had been predicted that we might have, would have been far too heavy for eclipse to effect. Unfortunately my sister up in New York ended up in that situation, where it was far too heavy a cloud cover so they didn't get to see anything. We had been predicted that we might have that, but that's the manner in which we got lucky.

No they don't, at least not in Texas. Here they get paid for the school year. Then they have the option to CHOOSE to have their pay spread out throughout the year. But unless they are teaching summer school, which is additional pay, they are not paid for the summer.
