The web is federated in theory but that does not stop the larger companies from monopolizing the traffic. Think of Reddit, Google, etc. as a federated instance of the WWW.

From my experience if you already have the files there it will just start seeding right away automatically once it confirms the files are already present. I guess it varies from client to client.

It really comes down to the degree. Someone could spend significantly less to get an IT related degree and start out making more than what your wife currently makes with, probably, a much better work life balance. That person could easily double that in a few years.

Honestly, we simply do not value health care and teachers as much as we should.

Or even the headline.

This has been my experience as well. I had to clean bathrooms for an amusement park and the women's bathrooms were way worse than the men's.

NTA, you are just using the tools available to you to excel at your job. I am sure you have heard the saying by now "You will may not be replaced by AI but you will be replaced by someone who uses AI".

Soon, anti AI people will be seen similarly to those who refuse to use computers.

I think it is a fine line to be honest. You want enough users to have content and collaboration but not so much that it draws the corps in which is what basically happened to the web. Sure tons of web sites exist but a bulk of the traffic only go to a few of them.

Skyrim would probably be mine as well. There is just a lot that can be done with mods to vary it up.

Would have to deal with the four property owners on each quadrant of the intersection. Any one of them can stall the effort. This goes even worse in cities where buildings are likely close to the intersection. And yes, they should have built everything with roundabouts in mind in the first place. We focused on cars when we built everything but made poor choices which hinder future changes.

So that along with all the other red tape need to go through like environmental studies and such make each update to a roundabout somewhat daunting.

Yeah, that is pretty dumb but, in practice, I never go to a setting by drilling down through the control panel anyway. I just Win-key and search for it which is way faster even if I know where it is.

I am a little older than you and video games are my main pass time. I think Gen-X'ers are in a bit of a wierd place in that we were the generation that grew up with home video games but it had not also hit main stream yet. It does not seem to be as big of a stigma with younger generations.

Anyway, I do not ever plan on giving up on them so one day I might be a 100 year old gamer I guess. lol

There was a period where you could not find the 3000 series NVidia cards unless you went prebuilt. Other than that, I agree, always built all my machines after my first 286.
