Wait hold on

Wouldn’t that mean that lenders have a vested interest in keeping borrowers alive especially if they have extreme net debt?

That’s going to make a lot of people upset. I don’t recommend doing that.

But then again, I can use reasoning to gauge whether a certain action will have a certain outcome.

Is Comic Sans ADHD friendly?

If you have ADHD you know that nothing is friendly. Or everything can be. Or something that triggers feel good becomes interesting and good. Maybe you know why you asked the question, maybe it doesn’t matter. Maybe I forgot why i started answering this in the first place.

Point is maybe?

Yeah, that makes sense too.

I’m certainly not kidding about it. Associating with communism or people who associate with communism is a big NO. And it doesn’t exactly make sense anymore, but that’s the FBI for you

No.

However, anything that requires security clearance or is PR for the employer will (in the US at least).

If you want a job that needs clearance, I recommend closing your social media now, stopping all drugs now, and wait at least 7 years before applying to those jobs. Limit travel. Work to have any mental health records destroyed (idk if you can actually do this) and cancel therapy. Stop using Lemmy, and don’t do anything that remotely indicates that you associate with divergent cultures (i.e. communism or anarchism).

For PR - just stay off social media and drugs and don’t talk about work except in an extremely positive way.

I imagine the children with these things are emotionally disregulated in some way shape or form. A small group of children sometimes don’t learn to self soothe when they are very young, others in ASD struggle with it for a lifetime. Some with ADHD have a very difficult time when their medicine wears off and their emotions kick back in to overdrive.

For all those groups I mentioned, the whole concept of this thing was almost brilliant. Something that they can go to knowing it will be able to help them guide through emotions while mom and dad are doing something necessary like cooking or fixing something outside, or in the bathroom.

If you haven’t had to deal with a child that has emotional regulation problems, then it is hard to explain the difficulty that the failure of this device will make. It is true that they will adapt it, they always do, that’s how things work. The problem is that the emotional disregulation leads to broken things at home, aggressive behaviors with peers, getting kicked out of preschool and day care, etc.

It truly is a nightmare scenario. The parents have to prepare for all of these things and a new way to help their child through the limited existing means.

Man those parents. Oof.

I do not wanna be in their shoes.

Telling your kid that needed an emotional support robot friend that the robot friend is going to take a nap for a long time and might not wake back up? Ooo boy.

Helping a kid through a divorce is hard enough. This seems like a terrifying nightmare.

The only thing I can see this affecting is the Secure-boot requirement.

Which is very odd to consider that anything compatibility related would likely have nothing to do with secure boot, and everything to do with Windows being Windows.

I mean my ex wife had what she called “resting bitch face.”

Everyone else just said she’s emotionless and has the exact same monotone of voice outside of her “customer service” voice. She could get angry, but she really didn’t get angry she just got loud. Until she typically lost it then it was different.

Looking back on it, people always told me “there’s something off about her.” I always kind of brushed it aside cause she was hot.

No, it’s not.

The US Dollar is a fiat currency. The value is merely what the market dictates amongst trading frequency and how much debt is held in it.

It’s backed by nothing. A dollar has a made up value. In the1970s Nixon ended the US gold Standard, and those with property, not the government who held the gold, got to dictate it. Same thing through today.

Wait what?

No, dictators fucking love central banks and fiat currency.

They like it even better than anything, because a dictator almost always controls the central bank. Plus, the dictator and his buddies almost always own everything, and when you own property you need fiat currency to stay in power. Fiat currency inevitably leads to hyperinflation. With hyperinflation, you get way wealthier owning property than having cash. At that point they don’t need the central bank that they control.

I don’t particularly like the comparison because I really enjoyed his performance as Paul

But you can’t argue with results

To be fair

He did get the steam deck made, so that was kinda cool.

But maybe owning 6 yachts is a little less cool.

Unless the sub and boats were like research vessels he funds, that would be cool

But they aren’t.

Why can’t billionaires dump their money into funding scientific research? It’s not like there aren’t scientists out there with plenty of research to be done.

Or even maybe wherever he lives, he could like, fund the entire county school districts for the rest of existence and no one would have to worry about taxes.

Or maybe regularly cancel the medical debt of Valve employees and their families.

Like how fucking hard is it to redistribute your own wealth?

Like fucking Christ, that’s the part I don’t understand. They complain about taxes and shit at the top, but they do absolutely fuck all to make things better for large swaths of people. Or if they do, it’s after they die and $200m gets donated to a university and it prevents next year’s tuition from increasing.

Everything I got offers for were weapons platforms, fire control systems, or guidance.

The exact same time I was going through these a cruise missile in Yemen hit a school bus full of kids - obviously one American made sold to the Saudis.

My kid wasn’t in school yet, but I looked at him, shook my head and said nope. Can’t do it. Won’t do it. Turns out I do value things other than fun projects and money, and by a huge margin.

The security these people hire aren’t the same security you are thinking of.

These are PMCs. PMCs make quite a bit more cash, and have military training to ignore some of that self-preservation.

That being said - it’s still a game of numbers.

I haven’t seen my Grandma in a few years. I’m actually visiting the state next month, but I won’t visit her.

She knows why. And my Dad doesnt argue with me about it. He really goes to check on his sister.

I don’t tolerate intolerance. This is what happens when Americans do.

And it’s open source!
