what's funny is that they don't even teach basic tech literacy but just rely on kids to figure it out!

I doubt OP would agree with your assessment nor your use of the word "only" but I appreciate you. ;)

Isn't it convenient that nature has already placed us in our respective roles and given us the necessary strengths to handle our different but equally important roles?

It's such a tragedy that one might feel compelled to weigh the burdens of motherhood vs fatherhood as if either side had a choice in the matter or as if there is some kind of competition to be won.

DNSSEC breaks DNS - your link posts all of its benefits and most of them are "make dns do other stuff!"

DNS is already bad enough on its own without shoe-horning a bunch of other junk on top of it.

Big mac patty (includes "flavoring") has 190 calories and 310mg sodium.

it was the first thing he called out as being healthier, which was factually incorrect.

bubba burgers are real meat, not bean burgers

The demographic is people who have tricked themselves into thinking there are "healthy options" at a hamburger restaurant and who are willing to pay $2 extra for that validation.

you can easily opt out of meat eating and try learning not to desire control over every other person

a bubba burger (grocery store frozen burger) has 90mg sodium (https://bubbafoods.com/nutrition/bubba-angus-beef-2lb/)

a beyond burger has 310mg https://www.beyondmeat.com/en-US/products/the-beyond-burger

They are lower in fat and total calories but they are obviously more processed = salt. Even a mcdonalds burger patty (without the bun) has less salt.

I don't want the phone os on a screen but the phone is powerful enough to run a full linux VM and work well-enough as a good desktop.

I loved BRE and LoRD so much. I would dial into like five BBS to play my turns every day.

My first close friend group from high school were actually from BBS Meetups more than school buds. When we found a crossover it was really weird!

I think you can only be "perfectly" in tune for a single mode so a multi-modal song would become very difficult to play?
