not that I know of but my sister got diagnosed before it hit her to hard and she started on some medication in the hopes of pushing it off. They just asked their primary care.

Watching this now. Its pretty good.

lack of sun in winter means its right out. its always nice to not be bundled up but height of summer can be oppressive which is like mid to late. Thing with spring and some degree fall is it can be wet and colder than you want for rain. I don't know if I have one favorite season but I think I have the most days I enjoy being outdoors in the summer with it usually tending to be earlier summer and then spring and then fall with winter being the bottom of the tier. Even if the sun were out in winter I think it would be bottom. Its nice having a few snowy days to enjoy if its not bitterly cold but it loses its charm pretty fast.

can't wait for this to be in distros by default.

Tell me you never owned a golden retriever without telling me you never owned a golden retriever.

I mean boomers were not necessarily watching the shows at that time. Its possible it was more silent generation or greatest generation. I mean I don't know but also who watches what now is abit skewed due to all the options. Streaming stuff was not until post 2k, flicks by mail were late 90's so before that was just broadcast, cable, and video shows and that came in the 80's. Before that was just broadcast. Its one reason everyone knows friends and seinfeld because it was still in the time were nearly everyone watched what was broadcast and if they missed it they could tape it.

I was a bit confused until I saw it was about how everyone finds her strange because of it. It is wierd to think folks pretend to like things. Even wierder are folks that are against things that are not their thing.

just go to nasas site or its youtube channel. Everything you see from a news article from nasa they make public themselves. they don't give places special sneak peaks or anything.

yeah im just saying one show does not mean anything. heck andy griffith was more a small town show than a cop show. The town was so small that the sherrifs office was one of the few public services in the area. It was more akin to little house on the prarie. I mean going the opposite we have blue bloods, chicago p.d, swat, fbi, the rookie, oncall are all recent cop shows but we also have 911, chicago fire, station 19. I would say cop vs general emergency responder vs hospital/doctor show ratios are not that different today than back when boomers were the main television audience. Those types of shows were always popular structures to run dramas from. Both I would say have about the same on private eye type stuff although there was a period. sometime around the original fantasy island I would say. were there was an unusually large amount of private eye ones for some reason.

Which one. Andy griffith or emergency?

If one show is proof then my counter argument would be emergency.

Sorry this does not answer your question but zorin os it a great out of the box distro that tries to look and feel like windows and has almost everything you need as part of the installation including wine and play on linux and an rdp client. it has the ubuntu software gui interface but if you use it I would prioritize learning to use apt at the command line as I feel the gui software thing as a bit pants. I used unix extensively in my tech career but did not use it as a daily driver (for a variety of "reasons") till under a year ago where windows 11 just made it necessary to do. I have future plans to go to an immutable but man zorin is great for a quick and dirty up and running thing. Also if you have an old laptop throw it on that. You will be amazed at how it may outperform your newer machine with windows.

There is enough testing now that you probably will. What stinks about it is even if we got some sort of right to die by the time you would want to you would not be competent to and early on if your taken care of its not so bad. Like being a kid again. Later though. oof. would not wish that on anyone.

I don't think folks are loathe to the idea their just aren't jobs that allow for that anymore and if they did they don't provide an equitable enough deal to make it desireable. If folks got promoted by working hard then folks would value it now but it does not happen. All that wraps into the american dream. Honestly I don't think the police were valued over firemen or emts.

pretty much the same but very heavily regulated capitalism. This capitalism should not have private land ownership. It should be recognized that the borders of the country are protected by the state and folks are essentially renting it. It should do long term contracts to encourage investment. The state should be involved with anything that all people need. food, housing, utilities, education, healthcare. They don't need to be the only option but they should provide the minimum needed to everyone to live a healthy life. Excess and things people don't need can be done by the free market provided there is enough competition. If there is not adequate competition then the state either provides its own option or regulate prices for whatever it is. Also very important that rights are only for physically existing citizens. No rights for corporations or any other logical entities with no physical existence. Taxes should be paid by all in a progressive manner and should be changed if its found individuals or entities are manipulating the rules to not pay them. This should theoretically keep anything from being to big to fail. Lastly tarrifs should be applied based on a metric for how democratic and free and equitable other societies are. If there is small wealth disparity and its a full democracy where people are largely free to do what they want. No tarrifs. non democracies with no freedom and massive wealth disaparity. high tarrifs.

Yes it is the worst and as you age your trying to figure out how much you sorta always did this and if its increasing.

Its more like a third activey wants you dead and a third would prefer that not be the case and a third somehow wanted to stop the horribleness of the democrats by being those friends to folk that makes them not need enemies.

Some selection pressure seems to be returning. anti mask (during a pandemic), anti vax, homeopathy. some folks seem to want to or have their kids die early.

if you got married before 2000 and had a decent job. especially if both did. having kids seemed like a thing to do. past 2000 anyone smart had to contend that the world of their kids adulthood did not seem like it would be great.

I thought at first it was 24 hours and I was like woa man. Sometimes folks have to take a break. But 24 days is long.
