Having “the best parents” would preclude that possibility, though. Your “what-if” is a non-sequitur, it doesn’t follow.

Yes… for some it is difficult to remember whether medication for the day has already been taken.

- Comment on Yes, I use Debian stable. How'd you know? 1 week ago:
I also ditched my “dumb” thermostats but went the DIY route. I put at least one temp sensor in each room/zone. Then switched out the actual thermostats with hard-wired Shelly relays from ameridroid. Everything is in a Zigbee network governed by “Better Thermostat” in Home Assistant.
A bit more work, yes, but everything stays local, I have all heating and cooling in one dashboard customized to my preferences, and the system is modular and extendable - next will be further automation with open door and window sensors + better presence detection.

Wild guess here, and I’m not super clear what a maelstrom even is but I know it involves the sea, and those are the Cliffs of Moher in West Ireland. Perhaps the maelstrom has something to do with their origins?

I suppose I’d have to disagree with that last statement, as someone who lives in a functioning multi-generational household lol. It’s not going to work for everyone every time, depending on circumstances, but having 3 generations in the house pooling resources is how most of the world does it.
It certainly helps to have a separate space/entrance for privacy and such, but now that we’re settled in, it’s far better than it was when we were going it alone. We have everything covered between the 4 adults, and then some.

- Comment on Anon follows the rules 3 weeks ago:
That’s typically an economic issue, not a personhood issue. Not that it’s a bad thing to share housing between generations, it should be normalized as it was not long ago.
For us we have three generations under one roof because it works. Everyone pitches in, and having a grandparent around for occasional childcare is a godsend. Eventually we will be the care as they get into advanced age. There was a period of learning to let go of individual cultural hangups, but we all got over it in our own time.
The idea of every couple having their own individual single-family home and kicking kids out the moment they turn 18 is not just cruel, it’s completely unsustainable.
- Comment on Mars Bar from the 1990s found during house clearance - shrinkflation in action 4 weeks ago:
There’s a large number of people talking glp-1s (ozempic et. al) and they actually are looking for smaller portion sizes, which is driving a huge trend in grocery now of boxing up larger quantities of smaller items.
Of course the industry has used this to their advantage. Instead of just offering a 4-pack of frozen dairy treats at 2 oz each, they can offer an 8-pack at .8 oz each and sell it alongside that one for even more.
