My point is that the law is just going to keep creeping up in severity because of workarounds like this.

One class for one hour is not much time at all. To get the most out of it, I would actually try to keep the scope as narrow as possible. I would really dig into these two things:

Password management (make good passwords, use a pw-manager to avoid reusing a pw, change passwords regularly)

Spotting social engineering (I would spend at least 2/3 of the class on this topic) this is by far the most common vector through which people get hurt by poor tech literacy. If you want to do the most good for the most people I would recommend focusing on drilling this skill.

Sounds like a recipe for account sharing. Also, what happens if a parent buys a kid something on the site or the kid steals the parent’s card? The transaction doesn’t imply that the card holder and the account owner are the same person.

I spent 7 years on my 4 year degree for vaguely similar reasons. I didn’t take breaks. I pushed through and cracked and failed and started over in a new major and a new school. That was nearly a decade ago and I’m not really happy with where it lead me. I wish I had taken the time off. If I could go back now with my current knowledge of how my brain works differently, I would be so much more successful. I’m also just rambling at this point.

I guess what I’m trying to say is be kind to yourself over the choices to have made. Not only can you rarely ever take them back, the grass is rarely ever actually greener on the other side.

I would add the OG Mortal Combat gave us the MSRP rating system.

I will remain excited that it exists, I own it, and can play it again.

I will never stop being excited for this.

I appreciate the Moomlaut

It’s been a long time since I have actually been able to do this but let me lay out a vibe for you:

I work 2nd shift which ends at 10:30 pm and I used to live in a really rough neighborhood. The kind of place where people mind their own business as a matter of safety. The kind of place where landlords don’t do inspections so everyone has a grill on their patio even though it’s against the lease.

So I would go out every single night at 11:30-midnight, light up the charcoal grill, poor myself a cocktail and spend the next hour or two cooking for myself in the quiet empty dark.

So to actually answer the question:

• the food would change often but always grilled meats and vegetables. A hamburger and an ear of corn, skewered and marinated meats and vegetables with baked beans, everything you would think to pair with a steak, I even grilled cuts of fish on a salt brick a few times.

• the drink would be something seasonal. In the fall I would mix burnt sugar whiskey with hot apple cider. That was my favorite.

• what I listened to was always some audio horror fiction. I love music but there was just something about the fire, the moon, and the colony of feral cats that chilled with me for table scraps, that demanded I listen to ghost stories.

I started reading because I saw the picture and expected to learn about some pangolin themed dog costume. The actual post has somehow surpassed my expectations and disappointed me at the same time. Idk what to do with that but it’s shaping up to be a wild day on the internet.

Can’t be sad about being poor if you just stop wanting things.

Literally every single time!
