Do distros generally have live versions? Or is there a way to set that up?

I find 2 per PC is my useful limit. Which means my current 5 isn't quite enough. Monitor arms are always a challenge at that scale, though.
My family was religious enough that they made it super clear that Santa was fake. Us kids still got little gifts "from Santa," but they were of the stocking-stuffer variety. All other gifts were from specific people. As a kid I liked getting stuff, but the more important thing about the holiday was spending time with family, and them showing their love. Gifts was one way to show, but spending time, preparing meals, and just being present without worrying about other life issues also did it. It is the thought that counts, but you have to show that you're thinking about them. Honestly, your kids might appreciate not having to pretend they still believe in Santa. As other people have said here, don't catch your kids in the crossfire. If there's something they're really looking forward to, get it for them, but label it "from Dad" or Mom and Dad if you're feeling generous. If they don't have their hopes on something, a trip or experience might be good. Not sure what experience fits both a 6 year old and a 12, but I assume you know your kids better than I do. As for the rest of your family, they can stick it. They don't seem interested in participating in the holiday, so don't include them.
I don't know if it's gotten better these days, but back in the 90's "being a man" was more a definition of absence. Being a man was "not being a woman/girl." This caused a couple years of real difficulty for me as a high school boy, since women were (finally) allowed to do all the "male" things, which ended up defining the male identity out of existence.
Additional context: the squirrel bit one of the officers that was confiscating it. So they absolutely needed to test for rabies.
Don't post your crimes to social media folks. Or do, I'm not a cop.
Aleve (naproxin sodium) is the only OTC painkiller that reliably works for me. So first I take one, and if that doesn't work after an hour or so, I take another and a nap.
Raytracing is still very computationally intensive, and doesn't have enough market penetration to make sense on most modern games. Devs need to implement two solutions: a raytraced path and a raster path. The game needs to be fully playable in both, across a wide range on hardware. The largest install base for most games is still console, where RT barely exists. So RT is generally relegated to eye candy for high-end PC. Which makes it a marketing feature, not a game feature.
It'll be interesting to see if that changes with the PS5 Pro. I expect we'll see more first-party titles support it, but not much else until the next real console generation.
Knight Rider. The world needs an anime reboot that leans into the vibe of that opening.
Even if I accept your framing that a vote for Kamala is a vote for genocide in Gaza, literally any other action is a vote for that genocide, plus one in Ukraine, plus one in the US. We know this because that's what Trump has said. We know this because that's what he tried to do the last time. And we will have this problem until Trumpism is soundly defeated. You want a real left choice sometime in your lifetime? We need to vote Dem hard enough to make it clear that Republicans can't win. We're not there yet.
The worst thing about standups is that about once a month I catch a problem early because of what someone says. The tradeoff doesn't feel worth it time-wise. But it keeps me from skipping them.
I really enjoyed it, too. Stuck enough to established lore that it didn't feel alien, differed enough to feel new and like its own thing. Great character development, and a good build to what we all know was coming. Really hope it gets a sequel.
I started a rewatch of DS9 last week, so this week I watched 1.9 through 1.17. I forgot that Garik wasn't a later season addition to the cast. Also watched the latest Lower Decks episode.
