  • I don’t think I’ve ever encountered what you say… I use WG it to access a network, not a device. I have a few dozen devices, physical and virtual, why should I set up wg on all of them? Tailscale, maybe, it’s a different story, but I prefer to “self host” and not rely on a 3rd party provider. Wireguard was relatively easy to set up too, a few years ago… and in the meantime, if I need to add a new client, it’s a two minute job.















  • I never received any kind of talk from my parents. Also, in my home country, during the communist era and even after, sex ed in schools was taboo. Crazy thing too, since it had (and still has) one of the highest teen pregnancy numbers in Europe.

    Anyway, I did not want that with my kids. Luckily where we live now there is a strong sex ed program in schools, but also at home, we were always open. We talk about sex casually, we reiterate “always ask for consent” and “no means no”, and my son even ratted out one of his school buddies who’s a Tate fan. He knew that what the guy was saying was wrong, so they don’t hang out anymore.

    Also, sexuality. One of my daughters came out to us over dinner, so casually, “dad, I think I’m gay”. I just said “cool” and gave an awkward fist bump.

    Just be open, casual, don’t make things weird.







  • i did have some blood tests back in december. everything was within parameters for someone my age & gender.

    i’ll try the calories / carbs counting. based on how much i eat, i should be able to add it all up at the end of the day. i remember 10-15 years ago i dropped the sugar from my coffee and also stopped eating bread for a few weeks, and i dropped a few kg. i do eat veggies, it’s not just protein with rice. my kids love a salad with olive oil and lemon juice, and my stir fries and curries also have plenty of them. but noted!

    thanks a lot for the tips!
