What will they put on the feet of their walkers?

Two so far. No closet is deep enough to bury that many skeletons. The first few murders are to slow further whistleblowers, it’s just business to Boeing.

Divorce doesn’t protect your personal bank account. That money doesn’t suddenly becomes yours.

Yes, but no. If you are married and only have joint accounts, you can't do much to prevent the other person from withdrawing from those accounts until you get into see the magistrate. At a minimum, you should have a separate account if you are paid by direct deposit.

Haha. That was my wedding night. Funny and sad in equal measure.

My friend group fractured and faded because of the divorce, and I was in no shape to function beyond keeping my job. I got the kids back full time after 2 years of absolutely bleak desolation. I focused on the kids and job for the next 10 years. Right now I'm crawling out my isolation a bit, but only a bit. My kids are now grumpy teenagers who can mostly take care of themselves, and I'm left wondering "what now?".

I dunno. Some of the kids activities allowed a bit of socialization around the fringe, but I'm gun shy to the point of not being very willing to engage. Dating probably isn't an option, I've seen things that can't be unseen. I like my work friends a lot, but work friends aren't the same as personal friends. I'm not sure what happens from this point, but I've got options if I have the effort and willingness to pursue them. If.

It's a fun movie, and the musical score is kind of impressive in one very specific way. Do you like musical flourishes? They put flourishes in your flourishes so that you can flourish while you flourish. Er... The score is very unusual, which makes it kind of fun.

I like beer, I prefer IPAs. "bitter and boozy" is how I describe what I want to bartenders and matchmakers. You don't like IPA, then don't drink it?

Meh, hate the game, not the player. I've spent half a life and my whole career adjacent to MS, my anger about their products and practices has long since turned to cynical acceptance. Yes, they have over stepped the bounds of fairness and good taste many times, but I've seen other vendors do so much worse. If you don't like Microsoft products, advocate for something else. The bottom of the bottle is that Microsoft has a duty to pursue profit for it's shareholders, and some of that will be ugly. These days there are workable alternatives for everything they sell, which wasn't always the case.

Pretty much this. There is a significant learning curve to kubernetes (or similar, I guess?), but it's a handy skill to be familiar with. If things basically run but with degraded performance on one raspberry, there is no real need for a vertical performance increase. Adding the second will provide almost double capacity, with some HA added for fun.

If containerized, scale horizontal and load balance.
