My only regret is I get more spam about 'found you on linkedin' than before I deleted my account.

Care to share with the rest of the class?

FWIW - I deleted my linkedin about a year ago and I've received more spam since I deleted it than when it was active.

Embrace it, friend. Shave it all off and grow a goatee (Breaking Bad style). You'll get your mojo back and be better off for it.

Scaleway's site and support is horrible, as you've found. But their pricing and offerings are solid and their network is... OK. For the price, they're better than Hetzner... if you can get signed up!

The map is fake. Please note the X community note on that post: "This map is the prevalence of male circumcision" from a 2024 study https://www.mdpi.com/2563-6499/5/3/36 (see figure 1)

I read the article... did I miss it? I still have no idea how to spot a counterfeit lith-ion battery without a CT scanner.

God provides every day and I'm very grateful. I've been working from home for nearly 2 decades and have flexible hours. My wife handles the majority of the grade school years (basic reading/writing/maths) and I teach mos

None chose to go to college so far. The kind of work they wanted to do didn't require it so they didn't. If they had wanted to be medical doctors, lawyers, or some kind of physical engineer, I'm sure they could have gotten i

We have a neighbor down the street that is non-religious that has 5 kids (public school). Maybe that's not 'large' in your book though. God says children are a blessing and I know it to be true. I'm grateful for all th

Bad assumption on your part. I'm not Mormon. Protestant Christian and most of my Christian brothers and sisters look at how many kids I have and that we homeschool and think I'm a little crazy (just like most non-Christians). I&

I'll gladly stand up my 7 homeschooled kids next to any public school kids. All tested above grade level on state mandatory testing throughout their schooling. Two graduated early (some with college credits). My adult children (4 sons,

People can push the full cart 2 miles all around inside Costco but not an extra 30 feet to return an empty cart to a cart corral? There's no reason for it. It's one of the best indicators of narcissistic individuals - the other

Pennies are going away so cash drawers should start having room for $1 coins soon. I'm hopeful we'll start seeing them.

Those aren't the coins in circulation. Those are proof coins and reverse proof coins, made shiny for collectors.

There is a law but there have been plenty of exceptions including President Calvin Coolidge on a 1926 half-dollar and Alabama Governor Thomas Kilby on a 1921 commemorative coin and Carter Glass on the 1936 Lynchburg Half Dollar.

I'm sure some are able to rehome them but very few. When you live in a rural area, nobody wants a chicken-killing dog cause most them have chickens - and those that don't - have neighbors that have chickens and you don't want

I doubt anyone enjoys putting an animal down and there are those who are psychologically unable to do it. They usually ask a neighbor or family member to do the necessary. I disagree that she was bragging about it. I think she was illustr

That's the way farms have always worked. The sheep herder kills the wolf. The farmer kills the bugs that eat the crop. The rancher kills the coyote that kills his calves. What exactly was the alternative? She should have let the dog

We're not talking about wild animals here. We're talking about farm animals, which are intended to produce or work. If your dog is killing your chickens, he's impacting your production. If a goat is too old to reproduce, the

It is from a farmer's point of view. The chickens are an investment and produce. A dog that kills chickens is a liability and it's nearly impossible to change that behavior once they get a taste for it. It will never be a good w

Have you ever lived in a rural community? Putting useless or malicious animals down is merciful and common place and definitely not the making of serial killers.
