I will add this as a canned response in my slack.

You’ve got more wicked witchery than Stevie Nicks!

Interesting thing is that they are restricting info available about the device, like number of supported fingers on display and cores on a processor, but this is liable to break some sites.

Good choice, good job congrats.

This makes me happy.

These are all measures which reinforce some negative aspects of US economy, apart from social security taxes.

I need more information. Tell me a heartwarming story. Lies accepted.

How does the snuffing work?

Need to see how bad it is. It’s an old Lenovo business computer of some sort. My own old Lenovo is just a few screws but a mazillion plastic clips.

Dry your filament and calibrate the extruder.

I was actually considering a desktop PC for this reason…

All of these basic OS skills are great! App management and settings are def on the list now.

Yea, taking a screenshot is definitely going on the list.

The presentation idea is good and maybe I can tie in some other fun thing, like identifying plants or something.

I have never heard of this project, I will check it out.

The typing practice software is also a good idea (from your screenshot).

I fully agree with you.

The kids can use most basic tools (hammers, drills, pliers), I try to involve them whenever we fix something around the house.

They can also cook some foods (pretty limited selection but relatively independently, including with the stove), but there is much to learn here.

We have also made sure they know how to swim, ride a bike, clean and treat wounds and even safely handle firearms (very far from anything approaching skill, but safety first).

I think we should practice stitching, that’s a great idea and next summer project will have some gardening.

Eventually I’d be happy if I can get them to try some martial art, but so far they don’t seem interested.

I am struggling a bit to teach them finance skills, since physical money is so rare now.

Those are good.

Honestly the only thing we have been doing has been that we try to latch on to things they show interest in. For reading it was first identifying letters together while out and about when they were asking and turning it into a game. Later they would request to practice writing and want to have a sample to copy. We read to them a lot and have since they have been very little.

Now at school we just take checking homework really seriously and try to make sure they see us read books, not just screens.

I made them a rainbow light thing from an ESP32. Need to fix that with them.

I never learned blender myself, although I can do some cad… Need to include some 3d modeling for sure though.

I didn’t know about Affinity, need to check it.

This looks fun. I think I will try it myself too.
