Tangentially related, I'd love to see some form of per product microplastic rating for food and drinks, similar to nutritional facts.

I am finding bread products are often wrapped in two layers of plastic.

That can't be good.

my dad's ancient parallel cables

With a null modem? I had same setup with my college roommate in our apartment. This was mid 90s, so it was Doom 2 and other FPS from that time.

Great memories.

This resonates with my experience of learned helplessness, especially when instilled within the first two years of life.

The analogy that comes to mind is how a baby elephant, tied to a stake, can't escape the rope and eventually accepts he is stuck where the rope lets him wander. As the elephant grows large enough to overpower the rope and walk away, he has already stopped trying, so he remains stuck.

I'm not sure if this is a true story, but it stays with me.

It seems reasonable to conclude there is a physical impact on brain development.

Great memories.

I'm 50. Diagnosed with MS at 40. Symptoms began around 19. Still working full time but live never knowing for how much longer.

MS sucks.

Things I have found helpful for me, ymmv: cando-ms Ocrevus Ampyra Eliminate processed foods, eat lots of fruits/veggies Exercise the parts of the body that can still move John Kabat -Zinn, mindfulness meditation for pain management Sleep Get outdoors a few minutes every day Participate in clinical trials Meet with others fighting MS who still hold on to hope, and can still laugh and cry

Things I believe that may not be true EBV virus/mononucleosis plays a significant role in my MS Still unknown, but there is interesting science on this. I tried to qualify for a study on ATA188, which kills EBV infected immune cells, but did not qualify.

I wish you well.

Is this ATA188? The clinical trial is open for that med which targets epv infected cells.

Transition to information security. A challenging career that may pay well.

Why not use a raspberry pi connected to an hdtv to display this, weather, news, etc.? You could make one HDMI port the "what's happening" channel.

Plus run pinhole.

FERPA has no teeth. :(

I'm RRMS, year three on Ocrevus. I wish your wife well. MS is a cruel disease.

I want this. I have MS and miss hiking so very much.

I use pihole for my entire home network as primary DNS and opendns for secondary (long time user of opendns, since before Cisco bought it). I also have VPN setup for remote access (esp. for mobile). I use ublock origin at the browser level.

These are layers of protection from undesired content (ads, malware, porn, etc.). If one fails, hopefully the next layer will provide desired protection.

I have kids approaching teen years. There is no magic bullet, and we still monitor and limit their screen time.

How would you improve this setup? Just curious.

Interesting read.

Does anyone have a link to the earliest known credit card compromise to complement this article? I'll research it and see what I can find.

I've been on the fence about cancelling my subscription to PIA after being a user more than five years. This prompted me to finally do it.

I'm not sure there are any companies left to trust.

FBA?
