    It’s one of the reasons I hate having one person cook and the other clean — the incentives are misaligned, and it just breeds bad habits and reckless cooking IMHO. If you do both cooking and cleaning, you’ll hopefully learn to clean as you go.



  • We’re expecting a baby. Do people travel with a baby? Is it safe? Is it insane? I think we’re just gonna have to stay put for 3 years or so.

    If your baby isn’t super fussy, the transportation difficulty (in our experience) is more in the logistics getting to/from airport, and dealing with other ground transportation. We just flew 5+hrs (coast to coast, US) with a 2mo and a ~3yo, and it was a piece of cake (typing that, I’ve jinxed the return flight…).

    We haven’t done international travel with our kids yet, but we will eventually. When I was 2 my family went to Europe — some countries were meh with respect to kids, but Italy (from my folks’ retelling) was fantastic, as there is (or was) a big cultural love for young kids.

    YMMV of course, but it’s absolutely doable! Kids — even starting as babies — have personalities, and you’ll get a sense of what’s appropriate with yours. Good luck!












  • I’m curious what you’re doing on an SBC that explicitly requires x86, though?

    Not parent, but I used ARM SBCs for a bit, and while it was nice, my x86 experience with a nuc has been much, much better. HW acceleration works on some RPIs, and sort of worked on my Orange Pi 5+, but only when using an ancient kernel which had some hacks (like, kernel debug messages saying “DISABLE THIS FOR RELEASE!”). And afaik RPI 5 doesn’t support hw encoding (not to mention no SSD support).

    Basically, my experience was that the hardware was neat if sometimes limited, the energy consumption was great, but the software/kernel support…ugh. YMMV of course.
