A man is sharing his frustrations with his roommate's technological inabilities after repeatedly helping him with basic computer issues that the roommate refuses to learn to fix on his own. In a post to , the man, 27, writes that he and his roommate, 31, are "good friends," attending college together and playing card games in their spare time. The man writes that he considers himself to be "pretty good with technology" — "nothing crazy but comfortable enough to do some pretty neat stuff with it." His boyfriend, 33, is also pretty "sharp" with computers and has an IT job. The couple loves playing video games together, especially "massively multiplayer online role-playing games" where thousands of people can join and play together online. The man ran into trouble recently when his roommate wanted to be included in the video game fun. The poster writes that his roommate is "terrible with technology to an inexcusable level. And to make matters worse, despite knowing how to google things or use trial and error, every time he runs into something challenging with technology, he’ll just say he doesn’t know what to do and sit there waiting for someone to fix it for him." Shutterstock/Shakirov Albert The man writes that his roommate's actions make him feel like a nanny, "constantly running into his room to help do the most basic stuff as if he were a baby. I’ve tried telling him to just follow a tutorial, or google it but even then he’ll whine that he doesn’t get it. I’ve gotten fed up because no matter how many times I show him how to do something, the minute he comes across it again he again just sits there and waits for someone else to fix it." Related: The man writes that his frustrations with his roommate have reached a tipping point, and that he's started to "get harsher in telling him he can either google it or log off because I’m not helping, I am so tired of this." His roommate's excuse for not figuring out his tech issues? "He tells me he never had a computer growing up and simply never got good at using them. But I think that’s ridiculous as I didn’t have a lot of things growing up that I know how to use now," the poster adds. The man gave his roommate an ultimatum of three options for when he and his boyfriend are playing video games: "1. Don’t join. 2. Join and google stuff and stop being a chore for others to deal with because he’s too lazy to figure it out on his own. 3. Pay $10 per occupancy of incompetence and asking for help until he gets tired of wasting money and figured it out himself." Related: People in the comments were quick to defend the original poster, with one user commenting: "I think you’re in the right here. It’s frustrating to constantly help someone who doesn’t make an effort to learn or solve problems on their own...Charging him a small fee might be a wake-up call that he needs to put in some effort instead of relying on others." The original poster replied with some context, saying he only came up with the idea of charging money because his boyfriend mentioned that that thanks to his own IT job, he doesn't have a problem helping people with their tech issues. This prompted the poster to realize that his boyfriend "makes a living wage doing it" and "that it was work and a job that I was essentially providing for free, so he suggested I should probably just start charging for it."

ALBUQUERQUE, N.M. — U.S. President Theodore Roosevelt did in 1906 what Congress was unwilling to do through legislation: He used his new authority under the Antiquities Act to designate Devils Tower in Wyoming as the first national monument. Then came Antiquities Act protections for the Petrified Forest in Arizona, Chaco Canyon and the Gila Cliff Dwellings in New Mexico, the Grand Canyon, Death Valley in California, and what are now Zion and Bryce Canyon national parks in Utah. The list goes on, as all but three presidents have used the act to protect unique landscapes and cultural resources. President Joe Biden has created six monuments and either restored, enlarged or modified boundaries for a handful of others. Native American tribes and conservation groups are pressing for more designations before he leaves office. The proposals include an area dotted with palm trees and petroglyphs in Southern California, a site sacred to Native Americans in Nevada’s high desert, a historic Black neighborhood in Oklahoma and a homestead in Maine that belonged to the family of Frances Perkins, the nation’s first female Cabinet member. Protection against looting Roosevelt signed the Antiquities Act after a generation of lobbying by educators and scientists who wanted to protect sites from commercial artifact looting and haphazard collecting by individuals. It was the first law in the U.S. to establish legal protections for cultural and natural resources of historic or scientific interest on federal lands. For Roosevelt and others, science was behind safeguarding Devils Tower. Scientists have long theorized about how once-molten lava cooled and formed the massive columns that make up the geologic wonder. Native American tribes still conduct ceremonies there. Biden cited the spiritual, cultural and prehistoric legacy of the Bears Ears and Grand Staircase-Escalante areas in Southern Utah when he restored their boundaries and protections through his first use of the Antiquities Act in 2021. The two monuments were among 29 that President Barack Obama created while in office. Amid concerns that Obama overstepped his authority and limited energy development, President Donald Trump rolled back their size, while adding a previously unprotected portion to Bears Ears. In one of his final acts as president in 1933, Herbert Hoover used the Antiquities Act to set aside Death Valley as a national monument. It’s now one of the largest national parks — not to mention the hottest, driest and lowest. While establishing the monument brought an end to prospecting and the filing of new mining claims in the area, it also meant the Timbisha Shoshone were forced from the last bit of their traditional territory. It took several decades for the tribe to regain a fraction of the land. Biden’s administration has made strides in working with some tribes on managing public lands and incorporating more Indigenous knowledge into planning and policymaking. Avi Kwa Ame National Monument was Biden’s second designation. The site outside of Las Vegas is central to the creation stories of tribes with ties to the area. Republican Nevada Gov. Joe Lombardo said at the time that the White House didn’t consult his administration before making the designation in 2023 — and in effect blocked clean energy projects and other development in the state. Similar opposition bubbled up when Biden designated Baaj Nwaavjo I’tah Kukveni National Monument in Arizona just months later. This time it wasn’t the prospect of clean energy projects sprouting up across the desert, but rather uranium mining near the Grand Canyon that had tribes and environmentalists pushing for protections.Stoli vodka files for bankruptcy in the United States

The Saints feared Carr fractured the hand, per reports, and he was slated to undergo further testing. He reportedly had a cast on the hand when exiting the stadium. Saints interim coach Darren Rizzi said Carr may have to enter the concussion protocol. Carr was injured when he tried to leap for a first down late in the final quarter. He was near the sideline and went airborne, landing hard on the left hand with this face then slamming into the turf as he landed out of bounds with 3:59 left in the game. Jake Haener finished up the game for the Saints. Carr completed 20 of 31 passes for 219 yards, one touchdown and one interception for New Orleans. Overall, Carr has passed for 2,145 yards, 15 touchdowns and five interceptions this season. He missed three games earlier this season due to an oblique injury. --Field Level Media
