Sorry, I can’t reply, as I have a dumb phone and don’t have access to social media. 😆

You’re God Damn Right.gif

*tenets

Haha, well done.

Nah, it’s 2 different things.

I could add pictures in the shopping list app, I just don’t want them there.

Instead I slowly took pictures of everything I own. And when something new comes in, I take a pic of that. I have a folder for inventory photos.

Those photos are only a just-in-case for insurance.

They don’t want to do the hard, constant work it takes to make the world a better place.

Ranting, raving, protesting are short attention-span things that make people feel like they’re doing something.

Instead of getting up every day, and cleaning up their little corner a bit more, every single day. This is what makes a difference.

Lately?

It’s all the fucking time, and it’s fucking tiresome.

And I’m American.

“allude” haha

I think you meant elude, but the homophone makes it funnier.

I don’t use voice anyway - everything I do is through an app.

Check out jmp.chat - they route everything, your voice calls and SMS, through XMPP. So voice calls are VOIP. I don’t even have conventional voice service with them.

There’s also the insurance angle.

Heaven forbid you have a fire or flood from a water line break. Insurance companies aren’t your friend and will shaft you if they can - I’ve seen it happen with friends.

So now I have an inventory (and pictures). I have about 4x the stuff in my place than the average person in a house this size, so the defaults from insurance would make me lose lots of money. Once they see an exported spreadsheet with counts and dates (plus the pictures), they’ll cut a check and not argue.

Plus the inventory helps me keep track of what I have so I don’t buy it again.

I have 800+ items in my home inventory list. Lots of different tools, household stuff, seasonal, and cooking stuff.

I used to be able to keep track just by having a few containers, but then I started forgetting what container something was in.

Now containers are labelled with a container name and list of what’s in it, my inventory app (just a shopping list app) indicates the container name.

Edit: You’d be surprised how much stuff you actually have until you start inventorying it. It’s a tedious task.

Wrong community.

Try Unpopular Opinions, or Shit Takes

You forgot to add “Marie Antoinette” 😆

AutoIt. Just have it play a Windows ding sound every 4min, but also set the volume to zero first.

Have the script launch at login/startup.

AutoIt doesn’t require an install, you can simply copy the script engine to a folder with your script. Been a while, but you may be able to compile your script with the engine too, so you have a stand-alone script.

Or make a silent, 1/4 second long wav/mp3, and use that to ensure you don’t hear anything.

Umm, gonna answer as an American, for clarity: many schools across the US have language classes of all sorts. Every niece/nephew I know across multiple states could study French, Spanish, Latin, Chinese, Italian, etc, etc. Chinese is one of many (typically Mandarin).

It’s very common in US public schools, and has increased significantly over the last 50 years.

Chinese wasn’t available in my school decades ago, but was in nearby schools.

Why? Because I can’t, like I said.

No one has to justify themselves. You asked, I said no. The end.

I don’t care if I’m rude to someone who’s trying to scam me, or in this case started being inconsiderate themselves.

Stephen Covey discusses this in Seven Habits of Highly Successful People. He’s asked if it’s OK to lie to someone. He answers by posing a scenario where being honest gets you killed, but using a harmless lie you aren’t.

I highly recommend reading the book.

I take your point, and in general agree with it. We should try to help.

Hoever, someone approaches like that and my radar is going off. Sorry, my safety comes first, so I’m just going to say “No thanks”, every time, because we all know this person is trying to scam someone. (And I literally mean “No thanks” - It’s oddly disarming by reversing the roles, if only for a moment).

Someone once told me “don’t let them use your principles against you”, which is exactly what this scammer is doing.

There’s a world of difference between helping a stranger and allowing yourself to be pulled into a potentially risky situation.

This is the same reason I never pick up hitch hikers (I have in certain areas/circumstances).

Though I have no problem helping someone on the side of the road. I’ve helped random people carry stuff out of the store to their car - by offering to help them.

These are different situations which you can assess in the moment.

Just verifying, after enabling subnet routing, did you create the routes (it’s in the docs for subnet router).

I have the same problem you do - for some reason TS will “steal” the route, even when correctly configured.
