The circle of life.

I’m going to wager this is mostly an attempt to get more people into the Apple ecosystem. The more integrated the user is, the harder it is for them to get out.

Not only this, as much as I love him due to him being family, I don’t love his views.

First off, I want to tell you that this is OK, even if it’s hard. I know plenty of people who hold similar views to your grandpa. Some of them I love very much even though I strongly disagree with their politics.

I have family members who are MAGA. Some of their views are completely shameful and deserving of harsh criticism. Yet, sometimes those same people can be incredibly generous and do very good things for others.

People are complicated.

If your grandpa were honest with himself, he would be willing to admit that if he lived in a place where his family was dirt poor and in serious danger, he would probably do whatever it took to care for them, even if it meant illegally entering a country.

Immigration laws don’t mean shit when you don’t know where your next meal is coming from or if the cartel is going to murder your wife and kids tomorrow.

If he were really honest with himself, he would have to admit that he’s not all that different from some poor brown guy from Central America who has many the same problems that he does.

Edit: Thought grandpa but wrote dad. Fixed that

I’ve worked with so many people who use their job to escape their marriage. That sucks. I love spending time with my wife. I wish we got to go do things like we used to.

I once had a neighbor who asked me if I wanted to pictures of his kids when they were born. I said “sure”, after which he whipped out his phone and began to scroll through pics of his kids in the middle of being born.

All I can really say is that one thing I wasn’t doing when my kids were being born was taking pictures.

Going through this right now.

Side note: what the hell kinda George Costanza level lies are you people telling to get hired in this market? 17 years of experience with AI? It’s 17 years of experience with AI isn’t it.

I actually tried that which is how I learned that I’m allergic to cannabis. Go figure.

Just give me your ID bro. It’s totally to protect the kids bro.

Fiber is complete overkill for home networking. Also, POE is very nice to have for things like WAPs or cameras.
