I can’t speak for your situation, but I do know of too many examples of marriages “just because” that made both partners completely miserable for decades. And their disgust at each other definitely was not good for the kid to grow up around.

If she’s someone you could see spending your life with, just not right now, then it’s worth considering. But either way, I would advise against agreeing to a shotgun wedding and leave that decision between you and her.

Sounds like her parents are trying to force you into a shotgun wedding.

Ultimately, it’s up to you if you want to go into a marriage that is very much going to be unhappy (I know currently and grew up around lots of terible pregnancy / stay together for the kids marriages) Personally, I’d just setup child support arrangements and discuss with her what role, if any, I would have in the child’s life and politely, but firmly, tell her parents to fuck off (you’re both adults).

Edit: And if she doesn’t want to have a baby, I would also support and assist with that.

Might be a bit premature. I’m gonna hold off until someone whose brain isn’t a pile of mush and who isn’t a pathological liar confirms it.

Dell Dimension 2400 or a descendant of that?

That was THE computer to have in college when I went.

Most of the last mile fiber network is passive (doesn’t require active electronics to pass the signal like DOCSIS/cable internet or ADSL).

Cable and DSL typically have the equivalent of UPSs in their neighborhood nodes, but they often go unmaintained.

By Grabthar’s Hammer, what a bargain.

I almost gave up on the dairy free cheese because Daiya was supposed to be the top-tier one. Tasted like vaguely cheese-flavored plastic strips, and I was not a fan. Also refused to melt until it was just below the temperature of the surface of the sun, and when it did, it was like a pile of glue.

On a whim, I bought the Kroger store brand (Simple Truth I think?) and it’s pretty damn good. Tastes like cheese, doesn’t feel like a mouth full of plastic, melts at a reasonable temperature, the whole works.

So it’s not just me. Okay. Of the group, I was the only one who experienced that.

I’ve only tried salvia twice, and it always made me feel like my body was being twisted clockwise. Not for me.

Ah, okay. Mine’s direct drive so probably doesn’t need that.

What does that actually do/address?

I’ve not had any issues without it on my E3v3

If I need that level of precision, I’ll use a digital clock or set an alarm.

I can usually tell the time, at a glance, within 1-2 minutes which is precise enough for 99.999% of cases. Most IRL scheduling has a lower bound of 5-minute increments, so looking at an analog clock for the exact minute isn’t really necessary. e.g. 7:21 and 7:23 are effectively the same for all but the rarest of my purposes.

My saved items / wish list is full of stuff I want and could use. When I have some extra money, it’s difficult to choose one thing, and I get stuck in limbo. So given I could set limits and hit a button, I feel like it would help me.

Yeah, for sure. I tend to use WebDAV with that to connect to my Nextcloud more than the actual Nextcloud app. Works great.

Assuming you mean SSH for file transfer? Material Files supports SFTP, and I use it to connect via SSH to my machines to transfer files.

I hope SNL can talk John Goodman into playing her (à la Linda Tripp).

Had to shrink the font a bit; looks better all on one line.

Is that good? I’m old and have no idea what that means.😆

Ooooh, I’m totally adding that to my email signature.

Aaaaaaand done.
