    Can't call the current bank. Every call has a hold time of 1½ to 2½ hours.

    @clacke Good. I was going to mention that my old bank used to block transactions from outside my usual area. I needed to call them to say "I will be in $LOCATION for six months" if I wanted my card to work.

    Laundromat's #TV service is back. We arrived right as the last of the people we usually see was leaving. The next waves of #coin-laundry customers were smaller than usual, so there wasn't much crowding or much competition for washers and dryers until we were almost finished.

      What the evidence says
      Foreword A friend asked me for details and supporting evidence showing that the Al-Ahli hospital in Gaza was hit not by an Israeli air strike but by a rocket misfire from Palestinian Islamic Jihad forces (in other words, that the story provided by Hamas was incorrect). It is unlikely that Hamas will

    I bought #GD2 a little outfit for her birthday. I admit it was difficult to find something that doesn't say "little girl" when she's in middle school. #SonOne says she's growing a lot, so when I asked her for her sizes, I was surprised how small her clothing is. It's barely larger than the clothes her cousin #A3 (6 years younger) wears.

    I went to a "Ross" store, so she got a pink and gray t-shirt, black pants, and a pink hoodie for around $25.

    Usually, I consult S for these purchases, but this time she wasn't available.

    I'm not sure whether this restore will succeed. Twelve hours later it is still at 18%. As I said, I really haven't used it, so there's really no loss if I wipe #Windows #Win11 and install something else.

    Or if I decide it isn't worth the effort and trash it.

    So I really haven’t put #Win11 through its paces. Some months ago, when both S and myself were working in #AL, we had discussed cheap #Windows devices and found this device for around $100. We both said we would order it, but it turns out that only I ordered.

    I expected it to run #Win10, so I was surprised to see some slight visual differences.

    Like Win10, Win11 auto-updates and adds all sort of unwanted garbage. It does the force you to view the tour of new features thing, too.

    Talking with #sonTwo about the kids. There’s now a telescope, so even though 4 1/2 year old #GS3 is really too young for it, they can occasionally have an evening observation. He likes space, stars and planets, the moon, and weather. I asked whether 2 1/2 year old #GS4 has started expressing his own preferences yet. The answer is he currently likes what his older brother likes, but he’s less emotionally invested in those topics.

    The exception is TV. GS3 likes “Bluey” and GS4 only likes “Octonauts”. And colors: GS3 likes blue and GS4 likes red. #GS5, at age 1 hasn’t shown any preference yet, but I’ve been looking for clothing in green for now.

    #Win11 machine keeps blue-screening, reinstalling some firmware. Every boot up it shows that it needs a reboot to install a device driver. All it has is a USB keyboard and a USB laser mouse … and an HDMI monitor.

    Not sure whether “Wo-We” just has a bad image that gets put on the device. Anyway, it is now downloading a new Windows image to install in place of the existing one. If that doesn’t work, I’ll check to see whether I can install something more reliable (GNU+Linux, BSD, Plan 9, etc).

    I’m probably going to need a cheap #Win10 or Win11 laptop if and when I take some CompTIA exams. I never needed them before, but I may need them as part of transitioning out of $EMPLOYER.

    RE: https://libranet.de/display/0b6b25a8-2165-29a2-f43f-429365020237

    I'm not sure you can _legally_ exclude military recruiters from recruiting on campus as long as you allow others (educational institutions, employers) to do so.

    As for whether joining the military is ever the right decision, there are some people where it is the right decision. #sonOne, for example, came back with training and experience he never could have obtained with the available resources. I disagreed vehemently with his decision and it cost us six years of silence. But it turned out that I was wrong, and I admit it.

    I admit that they seek more infantry cannon fodder than avionics engineers, and most such folks return home after their enlistment having no marketable skills, often nothing saved in the military college fund, and having undertaken life/health risk of being sent into a war. So it does not benefit every soldier directly. But is that the only criterion? Don't we also care about getting people to benefit their families and society in general? How would we even know in advance which people would benefit?
