I'm tempted to get some for my MAGAt in laws, but I don't want to support the camp, and I don't think the in laws would get the point - they're probably in support of the camp.

I stand corrected, apparently the sign originated before the rollover accident.

The change in how empty car seats are handled was heavily covered during my EMT and paramedic training, although the story could be apocryphal. I remember hearing about it, but couldn't find a solid reference on wayback machine.

The original intent with the signs was to let first responders know if there was a baby in the car or not. If you had a baby in the car, you would flip it to "baby on board", otherwise you flip it to "baby not on board". Instead it became a way for breeders to signal to the world that they successfully procreated.

This stems from a 2006 accident in Texas, an infant was ejected from a car seat during a rollover crash. The first responders didn't find the baby on scene and decided that the car seat must have been empty. A few days later, the baby was found dead near the scene.

Now the rule is that, if there's a car seat there's a baby. If the car seat is empty, you keep looking until you find the baby. The best thing parents can do is out a stuffed animal in the car seat, this let's first responders know that there isn't a baby to look for.

Family location sharing (beehaw.org)
 

My family has been using the Google Maps location sharing feature for a while. My partner is able to see if I'm running late, I can tell where my sister is when we travel together.

I would like to find a way to continue sharing my location with my family, without sharing it with Google. Are there any apps for this?

Can't seem to boot a linux installer (beehaw.org)
 

I have an older desktop (circa 2010) that I'm trying to repurpose into a small game server and NAS. It doesn't have UEFI. I've tried booting from USB and from DVD. I can get into the BIOS boot menu and select the device to boot from, but after I select it just goes to a blank screen.

I'm using the onboard AMD GPU. This is a fresh hard drive. I've tried the boot media on my laptop and it boots fine. I've put the old Windows 7 SSD back into the desktop and it boots fine. I've tried different images: Fedora Silverblue, Antix x64, Antix 386. Everything is giving the same results.

Can you recommend any other troubleshooting tips?

Antenna Recommendations (beehaw.org)
 

I'm looking for some advice about selecting an antenna. I live in an apartment, so I can't install anything permanent and can't anchor anything to the house. There is a small backyard about 30ftx30ft, some arborvitaes but no strong trees. My radio is on the second floor. There are also two-story houses behind and on either side. I am currently a technician, planning to upgrade to general in the next few months. Right now I'm mostly interested in 10m and 20m, would also like 2m to reach my local repeater. I plan to use SSB and digital modes. Some possible options I've come up with: using a stand like this https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/wmo-18320 with a mast to put up an inverted V, but I haven't done the measurements and math to see what the angle would be; my initial instinct is that it's too sharp of an angle to be effective. I also looked at this https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/dxc-expedition or https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/but-hf9v, but I don't have good line-of-sight with all the houses. I could do the mast stand and a mast with something like this https://www.dxengineering.com/parts/mkr-11-251.

Jackfruit recipes (beehaw.org)
 

So, I bought several bags of frozen jackfruit thinking I would use the slow cooker to make some BBQ. Then I realized that it's ripe jackfruit, not young jackfruit. What can I do with it that's not a smoothie?
