Some background details are decent though portrait isn't even close

Planting mint in c/[email protected]
[–] [email protected] 13 points 1 month ago (3 children)

Our soil is almost entirely clay and rock to the point that most grasses also fail to grow. I wouldn't mind something nice like mint or another invasive plant if it meant actually having something grow at all...

Ask me anything, and then edit the comment to make my reply look bad. in c/[email protected]

These secondary reaction comments are my favorite; this one got me laughing good

Yep iirc virt manager is just a gui front end for qemu though imo certainly makes it easier to manage the vm's

Yep, initially tried to setup virtual box as I'm more familiar there but could not for the life of me get around install errors. After setting the OS to read-write installing virt manager was pretty straight forward; the only real hiccup I had was that I needed to install win-fsp on the guest os before installing guest additions like virtio-fs which allowed me to add the shared folder between host/guest. Edit: it also required enabling shared memory and updating some registry keys during windows install to ignore the windows 11 install requirements.

My son-in-law got a deck as a cheap gaming PC but also needed to be able to use Adobe software which we were struggling to get working in bottles / wine so we setup virt manager and added a windows VM with a shared folder between host and guest VM. Works great and he's learning a lot about linux as his daily driver without losing access to the tools he needs for work.

Day one of placing a cricut in the open until my wife notices. in c/[email protected]

Somehow my brain translated "cricut" as "cactus" and I was having the darnedest time finding it...

Nice board games too; love Clank :)

How many eggs do you eat in a week? in c/[email protected]

I like eggs! Also it's quick and easy and filling and I'm half asleep anyways lol. I use lunch and supper for variety.

Correct. I have a minimal lunch and moderate supper with no snacks or desserts. Breakfast is my primary meal of the day.

Please help me understand the needs of those experiencing an unplanned pregnancy (lemmy.ml)
 

For a long time I have not felt belonging to either the Pro Choice or Pro Life groups and recently came across ProGrace which sets politics aside to focus on aiding the woman and meeting her needs directly both during and after her pregnancy regardless as to how she decides to proceed. This got my attention and I have since taken their training course, listened to their podcast and started some of their recommended reading to further my understanding.

In full disclosure I am a white christian male in the southeastern USA who has experienced two unplanned pregnancies myself and after learning of how terribly the church has handled their support of women, especially around unplanned pregnancy, I am looking to work with my wife to educate those within our sphere of influence to address this.

However, as mentioned above, I am a male and so naturally my experience around the issue simply does not compare to the depth of emotion and trauma that a woman would experience and so I am hoping to learn from those here who are or have experienced an unplanned pregnancy to better understand what support is needed to bring women through the traumas associated, overcome the fear and shame around the issue, and just generally help in any way I can.

I know this is a sensitive topic and so I would not ask for sharing directly in the comments here. Rather I am hoping to chat directly whether via Signal, email, etc. or even a quick call for those comfortable with that (can use Jitsi, Signal or another private voice chat to avoid needing to share any personal details). I would like to simply listen to your experience; I will not debate, judge, etc. as my goal is entirely to learn.

Thank you for taking the time to read and consider.
