It's pretty easy to put unbound on with pihole.

The Switch isn't that expensive to make, the chip, memory, and storage are all budget af.

15m here too. I don't know how people do it, but you aren't alone. I'm exhausted all the damn time, and I don't see how it's going to get better. My little guy is a good sleeper, but he kicks the crap out of me when he's awake, and most of the time and energy I have left when he's napping or sleeping goes into working and putting the house back together enough to pass as acceptable for human habitation before he can tear it apart again. I haven't had a decent game session or break in months, and it's pretty rough. He makes it all worth it though.

 

My baby just got diagnosed with croup, and it's one of the most stressful things I have ever gone through. My 15 month old is struggling to swallow and breathing is a challenge. Eating is difficult for him and he doesn't want to drink anything. He's on steroids now, but he still sounds awful and is crying whenever he coughs. I have been up for 38 hours straight, monitoring him, dosing him with Tylenol and having him sleep on my chest in the glider since that's the only reliable way to get him to rest.

He's going to get better over the next few days, but damn is this hard. Watching your little one in such discomfort and knowing that everything you're doing is only barely making this manageable for them.

Feel free to share your own stories about this, it helps to know we aren't going through this alone.

You have full control of the level of opt in. You can go always listening, only in high traffic areas, or completely opt out of the network. But if you want to use the network, you have to contribute to it.

Google is rolling out their own find device network soon™ with third party trackers that are rechargeable. They're pushing it through play services too so every android phone in the world will be in the network too, so it's a much more global network if you are traveling off the beaten path.

Awesome man, I'm glad I could help! Remember you're going to be moving on from your first amp at some point, same with the guitar. I would just get solid pieces to learn on and save for the pro stuff later. A small practice amp that you can easily move room to room is awesome when you start since it can make your first easier to pick up and play anytime you're chilling out. Make sure it has a way to plug in some headphones so you can practice without waking anyone that might live with you. Always do the bulk of your learning/practice with a clean tone so it's easy to identify any mistakes. Throw on the effects when you are having fun or finding your tone.

Kreacher because it alerts for no reason and doesn't do a good job at the one thing it was made for.

Justin guitar will give you the technique and knowledge, Rocksmith will give you the repetition and muscle memory. The Katana is dope, though blackstar makes a fun little practice amp too. For a practice one just try to find something used on FB marketplace or Reverb.

No amp is totally fine to start, and it's better to practice unplugged and save up for the best amp you can buy for your needs.

My advice is to do the learning on Justin Guitar, and the fun practice on Rocksmith. If you can, find some local peeps that are also starting to learn and that will accelerate your learning big-time.

You're right, I didn't realize the lawsuit had been thrown out. The fact remains the law is completely unenforceable without serious privacy violations.

There's nothing like that in the US that I'm aware of, though some states have tried.

I actually went opposite on my Pixel 8. A matte tpu screen protector gives you a self-healing protective layer that feels like paper and doesn't have glare. A beautiful bright display with a high refresh that feels like a kindle.

 

Disney is raking its customers over the coals with a 75% price hike for their annual subscription (originally $80.) People wonder why piracy is on the rise.Multiple commenters are saying I'm off base about the 75% price increase. My payment less than a year ago was $79.99. Here's the proof.
