First: you've done good, raising a kid that asks for your permission first.

Second: realize that this comes from peer pressure, them wanting a space away from parental supervision. If you truly want to make your kids savvy about the Internet, you need to assume they will eventually encounter seedy places, run into assholes, and be exposed to things like bullying.

Have a conversation: you will encounter these things. Your friends may be into them. But they can have bad effects and here is how you avoid it and how to deal if it happens to you. Talk about keeping private information private.

Be open and non-judgemental. You want them to feel safe coming to you for advice.

Be truthful and stay credible. Keep up with what's out there, but don't just buy into the latest Tiktok scare.

Talk to your kids about stuff they found that was cool or scary.

Embarrass them by using memes incorrectly.

Setting up a mastodon instance may be cool at first, but their friends are going to think it's lame with the supervision. You could still do it for a number of other reasons, but it won't prepare them for the ugly Internet.

I'm not a doctor or pharmacist, so I can't give you medical advice, but if I were you I would contact your doctor's office and ask.

Sometimes pharmacists can recommend an exchange, but it's best to first check with your doctor. Typically it's just a matter of getting a generic or different brand, but they will know best what the options are. It can be a headache though if one option is covered and one is not. You will have to check with your insurance company to find out if it is covered. Doctors don't know the details of your plan and could end up prescribing something not covered. Pharmacists can often help with finding drugs that are interchangeable.

DOM interfacing is lackluster with wasm still, but you can certainly compile rust to wasm.

Not sure if it's an overall increase, but you can always search the FDA drug shortages database.

At least our hours are the same length regardless of latitude now, so let's be grateful for that.

Always download the backup 2fa codes. This is when you need them.

Growing up in Norway, where roads are narrow, days are short, and snow piles up above a second grader's head, we were taught to use sidewalks, when they are available, or walk on the left (we drive on the right). I think it's supposed to make it easier to see oncoming traffic and get out of the way.

More importantly, though, was to wear reflective clothing. As a driver: please for the love of God don't go running in a black track suit along a dark country road early in the morning. You're not a fucking ninja. Wear something reflective.

Edit: I looked it up and it's actually in the law.

The request has been submitted to uservoice and has 265,567 votes, so it will probably be any time now.

Dette er bare ansvarsfraskrivelse fra skolen sin side. Det er ingenting teknisk i veien her som ikke kan fikses med enten en enkel sjekk eller automatisk fiks på server siden.

Dette er 100% menneskelig feil og (i beste fall) latskap fulgt av uinteressert byråkratisk stivhet. Hun fortjener en unnskyldning og pengene tilbake. De ansvarlige som feigt gjemmer seg bak "teknisk feil" bør få passet sitt påskrevet.

I know it's ELI5, but this is a common misconception and will lead you astray. They do not have the same level of isolation, and they have very different purposes.

For example, containers are disposable cattle. You don't backup containers. You backup volumes and configuration, but not containers.

Containers share the kernel with the host, so your container needs to be compatible with the host (though most dependencies are packaged with images).

For self hosting maybe the difference doesn't matter much, but there is a difference.

The closest official thing in the US is Labor Day in September. Most people forget it is a workers rights day, though.

From Wikipedia:

More than 150 other countries celebrate International Workers' Day on May 1, the European holiday of May Day. May Day was chosen by the Second International of socialist and communist parties to commemorate the general labor strike in the United States and events leading to the Haymarket affair, which occurred in Chicago, Illinois, from May 1 – May 4, 1886.
