Ah thank you. Yes, I have never used Discord and don’t know its capacities. I definitely should educate myself :) But the kid is now in senior year of high school so in worst case I did protect them for as long as I could. I won’t have much

Ditto. My old got cellphone in 9th grade, and all usual ones are blocked via pihole at home. Now in 12th, he does use Discord to communicate with a limited set of friends. But that’s it. I’ve said it before, the difference is that we don’t

Personally I believe that if a company is trying to raise private funding beyond a certain very high valuation, say over $1B-2B, rather than going public, there is something iffy and it's being done to avoid all the scrutiny and compli

Few months ago I had to take my kid to Stanford Pediatric emergency. It was interesting to note that 80% of people required an interpreter to be called to speak with the medical staff. From what I could tell, many of them had avoided going

I believe very few new immigrants start by buying, most start by renting first. Also, I doubt that buying a house is a condition to becoming a resident in most countries.

I'm genuinely curious, as to why a country, any country, should not limit home purchase to residents (note I'm saying residents and not citizens). What benefit does it provide to a country or its residents if home purchase is op

I fully agree, but You Tube is a weird one for two reasons: 1) for some of reason, blocking YT is not working on network. I need to figure it out. This problem could be limited to me. 2) YT is used by various educational sites to just w vid
