I got madder and madder watching that doc, that guy sucked as an engineering student but had enough money and hubris to kill those people. Then I got madder that dudes like that are in charge of so much. Gahhhhh.

We set up notifications for every charge after someone charged one of those personal info investigation sites to our card then used that information about us to transfer thousands to the balance. Since then we've been able to catch fraud at least 3x immediately. Sorry, this is a pain to deal with.

Saw many quote skeets and was entertained and followed. I think I started following here on bluesky, not on Twitter. Started reading your books after following here.

Yeah, abstinence only classes have terrible outcomes. With this extended program being described though I’m hoping it’s there too. Would be a great improvement over what we got in the 80s! I think kids then could be ā€œexcusedā€ by parents from the sex ed parts of heath class but everyone was there.

I love it, all this is what everyone should be getting! Things everyone needs to know about. If they include that sex is pleasurable that would be amazing! (I’m assuming consent is centralized but maybe that is optimistic?)

That was a shock to hear his accent in one of the extras. Then rewatched the latest ep and his American accent is so good!

I’ve only worked on much smaller but still business critical instances and that summary is giving me cold sweats.

Same. My backlit reader I can prop on its side and adjust the font size is a more comfortable nighttime reading experience. I went into one of my paperbacks recently and couldn’t believe how tiny the font was.
