I think there's a place for that, but it really shouldn't be your only one.

The Scottish thing is a scam because they aren't even legally allowed to sell souvenir plots of land. Like obviously nobody in their right mind thinks it makes you a Lord or Lady, but they don't even sell you the land!!!

Depends on what they're selling. If it's not a necessity and more of a luxury then people will buy a lot less when prices rise a lot. They're losing it because people are buying less of their products, not because the company is paying the tariff.

"Splattered, splattered, splattered on the windshield of life!" I remember that song, but can't find it. Also haven't looked super hard recently. If I wasn't busy I'd listen through the sound track, I'm guessing the title doesn't match.

Isn't this more or less what Truck Simulator is? I find the idea interesting, but I'd want some sort of goal. I could be really obtuse and say that Grand Theft Auto 5 is an open world driving game lol.

I like open world games. They get a bad rap because a lot of games that are sort of samey and sloppy use open world aspects, but I don't think the open world aspect is the problem.

Misread the headline as removing instead of adding. Was very confused.

This one is big and I never noticed it until a few years ago. My wife and I never got cable when we moved into our own place. One time my mother in law was talking to my wife about some commercial and my wife just said she hadn't seen it. My mother in law got really weirdly upset or something, like my wife was trying to be condescending or something. But she was talking about it the same way people might talk about a funny skit from a show. It wasn't until being away from it for years that I realized how odd it is.

I suppose while doing weird things is a wonderful time to notice it's a pattern for your family.

 

Opening your router to the Internet is risky. Are there any guides for the basics to keep things secure? Things like setting up fail2ban? My concern is that I'll forget something obvious.

Edit: I haven't had much of a chance to read through everything yet, but I really appreciate all these long, detailed responses. ❤️ Thanks folks!
