TL;DR: laws based on emotion (especially those named after individuals, or that include the words children or patriot) are rarely good laws.

I tell her imagine if that was our kid missing, youd want as many people to see it as possible.

AMBER alerts don't do what the public thinks they do; they do what the politicians know they do: demonstrate doing something when the base demands "somebody's gotta do something". It's political equivalent of looking Very Serious and intoning "thoughts and prayers".

If we actually cared about the kids we'd notice the majority of AMBER alerts are due to frustrated non-custodial parents taking their kids, and to runaways. We could address the problems at first base, or we can continue to be shocked, SHOCKED I say, and go through the kabuki once again.

I generally only reboot for stuff like kernel updates.

The base doesn't care about such things, so I expect "I never said that" and/or "I was joking"

Saw the .de domain and my first thought was this was about using a potato ricer to make spätzle. I may not be normal.

How do you exercise your dogs in bad weather?

Every day, wearing dog coat if required.

Off-leash Chihuahuas and mini dachshunds are the bane of my (leashed) pibble's existence on walks. They are forever running up and getting right in her face. When they bite her or latch onto her throat she lays down on them. After a few squishes the dog usually gives up while the panicked owner wails "I'm so sorry... Princess! Come here Princess!... I'm so sorry... I'm so sorry."

My dog is chill but if she eventually ragdolls a biter I don't want to hear any complaining about it. FAFO.

Why don’t you get a diesel heater for the winter?

I follow mild weather and so am very rarely in freezing temperatures. On chilly mornings making coffee and breakfast over propane warms the interior significantly.

If I ever did install a vented heater like that it would likely be a gasoline version, since the PM's tank already has a place on it to tap.

Just a reminder that Texas has safe haven drop boxes at fire stations and post offices specifically for dropping off unwanted babies,

In case anyone thinks this is a new concept, one of the most influential pieces of early Renaissance architecture (Ospedale degli Innocenti) had a rotating drop-off port for babies. There was someone on the other side of the wall 24/7.

What tips/ideas do you have for getting better at navigating the terminal, and getting a better understanding of how the os works

Running an OS as a virtual is liberating. Dive in, make mistakes, fix them (or not and have to reinstall or redo from the last save). No real consequences for exploring.
