The same world that produced the USDA Expenditures on Children by Families Consumer Expenditure Survey results, in which that amount is similar to other numbers. The US government may or may not have artificially inflated these numbers for intrinsic benefits. Depending on how you slice the numbers or what variables in that child’s life are at play, a child can easily cost more than $2700 a month, but millions of families also raise multiple children simultaneously on less money than that. In the same world where rent prices on 1-2 bedroom places can start upwards from $1500/month, what values do make sense? The answer to that depends on whether we’re talking about Musk or actual people.

Given grocery stores tend to use the currency corresponding to their government’s authorized legal tender for use in payment of debts: a lot of small things. A select number of stores in different regions accept bitcoin one way or another, word-of-mouth to support purchasing with Monero through similar systems can encourage practical consideration of it. It will take the slow expansion of Bitcoin-accepting businesses to also accept Monero as value that can benefit the business. In general, I don’t know of any specific grocery store in my region that accepts crypto, Monero has an uphill battle to see grocery deployment.

Probably not… I’ve always heard people get 8 hours of sleep when it’s dark, but my whole life I’ve always had broken sleep that doesn’t return to sleep after waking back up, and after years of being unable to sleep consistently at some point I changed approach and just sleep whatever time I get tired. It slightly improved my physical and mental health at the time but my overall tiredness never really reduced, I just don’t stare at the ceiling waiting for sleep anymore. The times I get the longest sleep tend to be when the sun is up, which is a disaster for being on-call during daylight business hours.

Yeah, falling asleep while working at a desk for long hours straight. Not suddenly, but just overall unable to stay awake for major portions of the usual workday. The full-time position before the one I’m in now, I was at the office and would sometimes fall asleep during processing, or do orders on a sleepwalk autopilot, waking up after a few were submitted. It didn’t seem to really affect my accuracy, but it was jarring when I snapped back to. Thanks for the great advice! Probably should lower my morning caffeine, drink more water, and time my breaks instead of take them when I’m already burnt out… 300mg+ of coffee a morning without water might be too much too quickly. Limiting size of lunch isn’t an issue for me, I sometimes forget to take lunch entirely.

Yup, I did! Then I joined Lemmy…

This is the first era in humanity’s existence where screaming into the vast abyss will get you a few digital screams of reassurance echoed back at you, sometimes hundreds. Historically there is no precedence for this, nor evolutionarily, and people are not developed catered to this modern existence. It is truly wonderful to get to exist in this moment in human history where not only can we shoot satellites into space but we can also instant message poo emojis to someone on the other side of the planet, and get their response poo emojis instantly, without having to wait for it to be carried on boats, on the backs of horseback postmen and on pidgeons.

As slimy and nasty as DeSantis is, this doesn’t sound crazy. Who thought permanent alimony was a good idea on the first place? So you divorce, ex-spouse pays you, and they never get to retire or quit their job because you want their money until you die? Why not allow compromises or change? Even paying child support isn’t permanent.

It’d be great for him to manage to pull a rabbit out of his trick hat and make another legend again. Some of his older games are absolute gems, but I wasn’t astonished by The Trail: Frontier Challenge which lowered my expectations for his future works. Hopefully his next not-Fable is a fun experience worth playing that brings some solid gameplay to the table.

All of the games in the Tribes series, my personal favorites being Tribes Ascend and Aerial Assault. Tribes had a play style similar to Halo but with a movement more like Unreal along with a touch of ‘surfing’ over land and some jetpacks. They’re all great fun and still fun for me to play today. IIRC, the last game’s official online servers are no longer active, but there is a community following for Tribes Ascend that helps keep the game alive and updated, look up TribesLauncherSharp and TAMods for more info if interested. I backed up the disc I have for Tribes Aerial Assault to an ISO and it works great in PCSX2. With 1080p/4K rendering, extra graphics options, wide-screen patches, and controller customization it’s way easier to play than originally on composite CRT with a Dualshock.

It’s moderately good at in-line commenting functions and creating full function doc comments for the specific language / documentation format you need, but its code generation abilities are still not game-changing. Getting it to generate anything longer than a few helper functions is a test of patience.

Driving slow, leaving early and arriving early. I usually drive a bit below the speed limit, and always follow speed limit signs. It keeps people safe, even if their own impatience makes them tailgate eachother 10 cars in a row behind me. Some people like to be in a hurry when they drive and don’t know how to relax and drive calmly, I’ve never been sure why.

100%. I used to occasionally do software development over SSH with a phone with sliding keyboard when I was out and about without a laptop, the keys were just big enough not to be uncomfortable. It was great to type into a smartphone like a desktop computer, and some programs could use the keyboard for functionality. Mobile experience has become more bland and cluttered with virtual keyboards/buttons/‘joysticks’ taking up screen real-estate. At the very least, it’s nice that with an adapter many USB keyboards can work with an Android device.
