I stand by the fact that even IF this was the ending he had in mind he would have been able to build to it better than the bullshit that D&D did with it. If the last season was drawn out over 3 seasons it would have made a lot more sense.

Still a crappy ending but it could have been better.

If there was any lesson learned from GoT TV show it was don't let the TV show finish before the books do.

I enjoy standing while in meetings, helps me think so it just made that easier. I used to stand 80% of the day now I find myself sitting 80% of the day.

I put my girl down a year and a half ago. She was an eight year old rottie that loved life, Loved kids and loved me. She had cancer growing in her brain/snout that was making her angry, agitated and a danger to others. Could I have waited a month or two longer? Maybe, but she wasn't happy anymore so it was time. I paid for an autopsy because I wanted to know, the cancer was everywhere in her skull/ muzzle taking up 1/5th the brain cavity.

Holding onto her for longer was unfair to the years of happiness she gave me. In the end I couldn't be selfish and had to let her go. So maybe try that route with your wife? It was the hardest decision I ever made and I cried all the way to the vet and thought about turning around a couple of times.

VLANs and least privilege access. Everytime I see this is the same thing, everyone hates on automation. Just do it right. If you need to sign up for something use a alias and different domain. Username+4@throwawaydomain.com for that annoying Philips hue login.

Have different wireless SSIDs setup for each purpose on different vlans.

Personal/home SSID

Guest SSID

Work SSID

Automation SSID

Use port security to stop automation and Guest SSID/VLAN from accessing places it shouldn't.

Easier to launder money and have illicit money activities through crypto than fossil fuels

Again, those seem to just be excuses to my untrained political eye. As someone that fairly regularly deals with red tape, if the powers that be want to cut through the red tape they can and will.

Yeah, because they "didn't have enough to make any appreciable difference." I say similar things to people I don't want to help but I don't want to upset them. Sorry I don't have time to do that, having one more person wouldn't make that big off a difference etc.

You may very well be right. And that exact reason is the only reason they didn't send eggs. But I'm guessing their are more than that singular reason.

"A loss of communication with ground control occurred as the engines shut down, leading to the rocket's self-destruction sequence.

The incident highlights significant operational failures, as engine shutdowns should not cause communication loss, indicating a lack of redundancy in systems."

For the communication redundancy part: This is just my interpretation of what I'm reading and it could be 100% wrong.

The communications need a redundant power supply/ connection not associated with the engine. Because they didn't have the communication connection and the engines were on fire the self destruct was initiated. Where if they had communications maybe they could have done something else? Turn off fuel, changed location of impact, changed location of self destruct to not be where it was.

I could be wrong, Iam in fact not a rocket scientist

Be an ass on the international scene. Show you are untrustworthy and do everything you can to not pay a bill. Just be generally unreliable as a trade partner.

Get turned down when you ask internationally for help.

My company does 16 weeks of fully paid paternity. I'm taking 9 weeks at the beginning and breaking up the rest over the year to help with this or that.

I am a little concerned as to what my job will look like when I get back especially with the political climate. But at the end of the day that isn't what is most inorganic to me. My family is.

Do we know if these increased metal tariffs go live now or in April?
