Everyone is different. Some people want space, some people need attention. The main thing is to ask them what they need.

Additionally, making sure they’re eating and drinking (water, not booze) is important too. Cook them a few meals. Remember, you’ll be grieving too, so don’t let helping your partner overwhelm you or override your own needs.

I’d ask a mutual friend (now) to check on you two, especially on the first day. Being around loved ones can be really helpful.

When I lost someone close to me, my wife hugged me while I cried. That was the best thing she could do. Being around family or friends also can be a good distraction, so you don’t get totally swallowed up by grief. You have to feel the sad feelings, but don’t let them consume you.

As for school, I don’t have any experience. I’d suggest maybe studying away from home, so they’re not reminded of the cat.

Good luck. You sound like a good partner, and a “helper”. From one helper to another: please don’t neglect yourself. Let yourself feel the feelings, bottling them isn’t healthy. Help your partner as best you can, but don’t be afraid to call in outside help.

I read their Wikipedia article. It’s kinda nuts. Like seminars where randos jerked off female employees. And then there’s the forced labor and other abuse.

Paul Blart is a fictional mall security guard. Kinda incompetent, excessive sense of self importance, but a good guy.

Derek Chauvin was a real cop who murdered George Floyd by kneeling on him, cutting off his airway until he died.

I use a 2012 Mac Mini running OPNSense. I use the Apple Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter in addition to the built in Ethernet. You could probably do the same for the MacBook Pro. I have a separate switch and access point. It works really well. And it was cheap.

That’s a neat job. Do you work for a university or something?

I use a Norton Commander clone (Total Commander) lol. Having a huge list of bookmarks in a drop-down menu with subfolders is super helpful for my work.

All our network shares are Azure hosted, so Microslop is getting corporate $$$ regardless. And I think that bug has been around since forever.

Dude. Same. Windows 11 at work is fucking awful.

My laptop idles at 12 out of 16 gigs of RAM free.

Right clicking takes dozens of seconds, especially on a network share.

Did IT remove a letter mapped network drive? Haha! Fuck you! Windows hangs indefinitely if you open Windows explorer. You gotta fuck around in the registry to remove that shit.

The only good thing about windows 11 is tabs in Windows explorer. Which MacOS and Linux have had for a gazillion years.

We make engines for other people to attach onto their satellites or rockets. All I typically do is test if the engines are functional. I help build the test programs and go through the resulting data. Our customers do the GNC (Guidance, Navigation, and Control) programming, so I have no idea how that typically works.

I’m a data analyst/software engineer in rocket engine testing.

I get super excited when I see rocket launches in the news or on the Internet.

“Woah that’s so cool!”

“Holy shit! Hardware I touched is on that!”

“Yooooo. Those engines I tested are on the Moon!”

Do it!

Here’s what it looks like around me: https://analyzer.letsmesh.net/channels?region=pnw

I’d check the map to see if there are repeaters around your area.

I believe the only part of Meshcore that’s not FOSS is the official app, and there’s a FOSS alternative.

Personally, I’d use Meshcore. I tried MT for a month or so. I never saw a conversation, just a few scattered “test” messages. Meanwhile, on MC, I was away from my phone for 4 hours yesterday and came back to 250+ coherent messages in a conversation from all over the region (not to mention the hundreds of test messages).

MT is better in ad-hoc situations since clients can repeat messages, but MC is better for establishing a region-wide communication network.

Mesh also allows you to use encryption.

And both use LoRa which is proprietary.

I thought it was neat and installed it, but I had no specific use cases.

It came in handy when I was trying to combine a bunch of PDFs a few weeks later. Then I used it again to remove some pages from another PDF. I like having it around

I’ve been having issues for a while too.

What about a certified letter? With a law firm’s letterhead.

Lol.

Their other food is more expensive but it’s still quite cheap.
