not that I know of but my sister got diagnosed before it hit her to hard and she started on some medication in the hopes of pushing it off. They just asked their primary care.

lack of sun in winter means its right out. its always nice to not be bundled up but height of summer can be oppressive which is like mid to late. Thing with spring and some degree fall is it can be wet and colder than you want for rain. I don't know if I have one favorite season but I think I have the most days I enjoy being outdoors in the summer with it usually tending to be earlier summer and then spring and then fall with winter being the bottom of the tier. Even if the sun were out in winter I think it would be bottom. Its nice having a few snowy days to enjoy if its not bitterly cold but it loses its charm pretty fast.

Tell me you never owned a golden retriever without telling me you never owned a golden retriever.

I mean boomers were not necessarily watching the shows at that time. Its possible it was more silent generation or greatest generation. I mean I don't know but also who watches what now is abit skewed due to all the options. Streaming stuff was not until post 2k, flicks by mail were late 90's so before that was just broadcast, cable, and video shows and that came in the 80's. Before that was just broadcast. Its one reason everyone knows friends and seinfeld because it was still in the time were nearly everyone watched what was broadcast and if they missed it they could tape it.

I was a bit confused until I saw it was about how everyone finds her strange because of it. It is wierd to think folks pretend to like things. Even wierder are folks that are against things that are not their thing.

just go to nasas site or its youtube channel. Everything you see from a news article from nasa they make public themselves. they don't give places special sneak peaks or anything.

yeah im just saying one show does not mean anything. heck andy griffith was more a small town show than a cop show. The town was so small that the sherrifs office was one of the few public services in the area. It was more akin to little house on the prarie. I mean going the opposite we have blue bloods, chicago p.d, swat, fbi, the rookie, oncall are all recent cop shows but we also have 911, chicago fire, station 19. I would say cop vs general emergency responder vs hospital/doctor show ratios are not that different today than back when boomers were the main television audience. Those types of shows were always popular structures to run dramas from. Both I would say have about the same on private eye type stuff although there was a period. sometime around the original fantasy island I would say. were there was an unusually large amount of private eye ones for some reason.

Which one. Andy griffith or emergency?

[–] HubertManne@piefed.social 1 points 7 hours ago (6 children)

If one show is proof then my counter argument would be emergency.

Sorry this does not answer your question but zorin os it a great out of the box distro that tries to look and feel like windows and has almost everything you need as part of the installation including wine and play on linux and an rdp client. it has the ubuntu software gui interface but if you use it I would prioritize learning to use apt at the command line as I feel the gui software thing as a bit pants. I used unix extensively in my tech career but did not use it as a daily driver (for a variety of "reasons") till under a year ago where windows 11 just made it necessary to do. I have future plans to go to an immutable but man zorin is great for a quick and dirty up and running thing. Also if you have an old laptop throw it on that. You will be amazed at how it may outperform your newer machine with windows.

There is enough testing now that you probably will. What stinks about it is even if we got some sort of right to die by the time you would want to you would not be competent to and early on if your taken care of its not so bad. Like being a kid again. Later though. oof. would not wish that on anyone.

 

I assume she knows everything in the area is not sprayed with any type of *acide.

 

This comic does not normally have titles, but this one does.

 

Give it a chance. He comes at it showing sorta a worse case and then goes through how there are things that make it seem worse are actually not as bad. Nothing he goes through seems to be way off. So as far as I can tell its pretty even take. Not to rosy and not to doomy.

 

So this week im running from piefed.
