Good job

This is true- am British, lived in America. Also good for dating

Nailed it

They also don’t want to be photographed and end up with their tits all over social media. Places where this used to be routine (European beaches and so on) there is a lot less of this than 30 years ago. Another thing mobiles phones and social media have made worse

Obviously true? In real life I’ve found it’s often worth doing a bit of thinking / effort to find a third option though. Not always possible though - like when voting - though I don’t think picking the least worst (imho) option when it comes to political representation is immoral

I’m sorry to say that I think you’re stuck while the father is being so useless. If his view is that his daughters role in life is to moon about until some guy comes along to take care of her, and she is also of the same view, then I think the best you can do is to be supportive of anything that gets her out of the house (including useless studies) and exposed to more of the world and different world views. Hopefully she’ll come to her senses and husband can then support her in her new choices. You have the sympathy of a random internet stranger.

Father of a daughter here. I think your husbands position is deplorable. I want the best for my daughter, and education gives her choices. It sets her up to be self reliant. If she chooses to go trad wife (can’t see it) then that’s her look out, but at least she’ll be to change her mind if she wants to. It’s much harder work to get these choices back in later life - get them now!

Yes they do - I have very few ads on my iPhone

Ahh. Political commentary from a better time. Not even a little death threat!

I think it depends on whether it’s active or passive. Active - e.g. a laser that damages a camera sensor, then yes, your device is actively damaging someone else’s camera - deliberate property damage. Passive - e.g. reflective strips so the exposure is bad, a pattern that is hard to focus on or similar- that’s fine - camera owner is making a decision to expose their gear to the environment. Even if, say, it’s a changing pattern that deceives the autofocus into working constantly (no, I don’t know exactly how that would work, but it’s the best I can think of at short notice) so it wears out faster.

Congratulations!

Exactly- well said. AI coding assistants are a tool to be used like any other - but it’s still the software engineer who responsible for the code at review

I guess it’s ‘on average’ - I, for example, have managed to have a sub 30 min commute for most of my 20+ years career, and that on public transport or by bike. It’s been mostly by accident rather than design, but it’s been a massive blessing.

Yes, I had to tidy the kitchen this morning (like every morning - phew) and had to collect the empty port glass from next to the computer… such excess

Terminator with crippling social anxiety. The books are good

If you have problems fitting one just go to a shop. It’ll cost you a few pounds more but no bubbles or dust. Beats a scratched screen

Garbage In, Garbage Out. Not enough info, so can’t provide meaningful response, I guess, in this case. That said - I wouldn’t be happy, done know why they would be.

And you’re explaining this in your second language? No, you’re not a failure - sounds like you’ve achieved a lot and have huge potential as well

I don’t think you know what fascism is? Liberal, capitalist, sure, pro Trump? Definitely not, pro fascism? definitely not…. That’s even true for the very woolly definition of fascism as most people use it today

The original is great, the recent PC game is pretty good at nailing the atmosphere too
