This one I understand. “Cheese pizza” is code for child porn.

It has changed a few minds so far.

I’ll chime in and say that math teachers have said similar things about calculators/graphing calculators for 25+ years. This is most definitely you getting “old”. It’s okay—it happens to all of us.

As far as attention span, that has been an equally common refrain—going back to people complaining that radio has reduced kids attention spans.

Name 10 WW1 Battles

The Battle of the Isonzo?

Okay, that was too easy. That’s on me.

Off the top of my head: Supermarket Simulator and Void Crew. There’s more.

Even then. My mother followed a YouTube video on this including the part where the helpful Indian guy had her download an app and set up a very sketchy VPN.

Yea…

Not really. It takes a lot of experience to sort the legit from the not legit.

“Having problem X? Download the system32.dll fix here!”

Just buy them from the vending machine.

Space Engineers 2 is EA now…

I loved writing scripts for that game, looking forward to more.

Not really a sim, but def a fan of space games. Void Crew has been great.

Do you prefer phone calls? (This is a honest question)

Oh, I most definitely love my kids. Seeing their thought processes always makes my day.

But…I’m in exceptional circumstances. My son lost bowel and bladder control 2y ago (tumor on his spinal cord). Had to live in the hospital a year. Took its toll on our now 9yo daughter…

And now, my son is STILL used to being woken up every couple of hours for blood pressure checks and who is also awoken at that point? Yep—me.

I don’t remember the last time I woke up feeling rested.

I love my kids but… I’m tired, boss.

When my (then) 4 yo was undergoing chemo I had a goto line I used often when people would comment on my mask:

You’re right. I should let my kid who has no immune system because he’s on chemo for cancer treatment just die then, right?

Honestly, if you’re still masking and get flak, just say the above anyhow. You have my permission.

And yet…

Rules for thee but not for me. Same as always.

Does it belong in here? Not belong? Help me—I’m confused.

He was agreeing with you…

I think I phrased this badly. I wanted effectively a digital filing cabinet software with OCR/tagging—not just OCR alone. It looks like paperless-ngx ticks all those boxes.

This does sound great. I really do want to move bills older than 6 months (and other records in general) backed up to my PC as well as cloud storage.

Do you have any recommendations on this sort of thing? Ideally, something that scans with OCR and makes things searchable. Failing that, I may have a project for myself to do…

Try flying Spirit—not everyone has money for a normal airline.
