What are your experiences with breaking free from a toxic family?
  • That’s exactly what I just did. I’m living in my car with my wife and pet cat. We are traveling and looking for land.

    I had a family member that did not live in my house, but felt they were entitled to control EVERYTHING.

    I was insulted, misunderstood, manipulated, lied to, etc. it’s like everything I did was wrong according to this person. Then things got worse as they were lying to other family members.

    By leaving they no longer had control over me or my life. They no longer have ammunition for this lies against me.

    We are free!

  • How many Nintendo Switches do I need for a family of gamers?
  • If you want extra controllers I recommend the 8-bit-do controllers. They are cheaper than Nintendo. The ones I have work on switch, Xbox, pc, android, iOS, etc. they also sell a dongle to work on many more consoles. (I use the dongle on Linux and allows me to play wireless).

    I already agree with most of the comments here, just wanted to add info about 3rd party controllers.

  • Need help with a fresh drupal install
  • I remember when I setup my Wordpress website years ago I had permission errors, so the Wordpress install needed read/write access to the website directory. Maybe the same in your case?

  • Should I or should I not use/bother with using Linux? (READ THE WHOLE POST)
  • I switched to Linux mint maybe 6 months ago and it’s been great. Just a bit of adjustment for which programs I needed to get some things done. Also turns out some stuff was WAY easier to get running such as my JavaScript twitch chat bots, I didn’t even need a tutorial and I got it running in terminal. My wife also using mint at the same time I switched and she has been liking it too. Good luck and know there’s a ton of people here that can help you out.

  • Is the Lenovo Yoga Slim 7 good for Linux?
  • I run mint on a ideapad flex and it’s been great. Touch screen works, speakers, Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, gaming, etc all good. I got the laptop cheap with a broken screen, I replaced the screen and added a bigger NVMe and it’s been great.

  • Goodwill is out of control
  • I stopped going to goodwill a while ago.

    Prices too high.

    Also Caught them a few times taking the sale of the week items to the back storage so no one can get the $1 blue tags or whatever color of the week it was.

    Also heard the manager yelling at an employee for missing one of the sale items.

    I still go to all the other brands of thrift stores, there are like 30 of them in 10 miles, maybe more. And they are ALL cheaper than goodwill.

    I also used to go to goodwill outlets and get stuff cheap by weight, but I no longer see hard goods or DVDs there anymore. So I stopped going.
