    Choosing to have kids means you’re going to have a tiny human that you can shape and nurture into an incredible adult. The choices you make as a parent directly impact how your kid grows up, what they do professionally or for fun, their values and their moral compass. Its a huge responsibility but also its incredibly rewarding when you see the choices you made actively make your child into a better person. Every time you see your child make the right choice on their own based entirely on your earlier guidance, every achievement that they make, every little improvement in their capabilities


  • I’m guessing my kids are younger than yours, but I’ve taken the approach of simply keeping a loose eye and ear on what they’re watching to make sure they’re not on too bad of content and of course limiting how much time they can spend on brainrot content. They spend most of their TV time watching PBS kids or some ripped DVDs on my Jellyfin


  • The family thing can be a pain, Microsoft has a lot of half baked ideas

    I concur, Microsoft forced me to create a family to setup my daughter’s Minecraft account and even then I had to configure it incorrectly to add the game because it’s age rating was too high for a 5 year old and Microsoft’s own parental approval feature doesn’t override that. (I at least could change it back to being a 5 year old’s account afterwards) I need to figure out what setting I have to enable to let her do multiplayer at some point but so far she doesn’t have anyone to play with yet








  • I mean, Excel’s formulas are just scripting, so you are programming if you do any formulas.

    Excel is pretty powerful if you have some data to manipulate or some math to math, but also it’s generally the worst tool for the job, but it’s at least a tool you can almost always assume will be available






  • VGA and DVI honestly were both killed off way too soon. Both will perfectly drive a 1080p 60fps display and honestly the only reason to use HDMI or Displayport with such a display is if that matches your graphics output

    The biggest shame is that DVI didn’t take off with its dual monitor features or USB features. Seriously there was a DVI Dual Link with USB spec so you could legitimately use a single cable with screws to prevent accidental disconnects to connect your computer to all of your office peripherals, but instead we had to wait for Thunderbolt to recreate those features but worse and more likely to drop out
