I've had it with my parents, I'm fucking done

Look, I'll get this off my chest, then that will be it. My country has a draft, I was going to get an exemption, my parents- Both navy veterans- Talked me out of it. So from their encouragement, I went, it ended up derailing my life and causing a breakup, losing a job, and a seizure. fair, my parents genuinely feel godawful about their encouragement, and my mother helped me leave slightly early, so I ended up doing about ten months, rather than a year.
I'd just gone 18 at the time and the pressure from family- Ranging from direct and firm, to this grating sort of "You'll have a great time" constant encouragemt from my mother, felt like a lot to bare, and I wasn't really in a position where I could say no without causing lots of drama in my family. But I need to be honest here: Their regret, support, and even love now simply aren't enough.
They've never been fucking enough! My dad feels terrible and I remember, one of the conversations, he didn't know what to say after we'd gone silent and feeling bad and all... He asked if I at least got to use any cool guns?? They threw me a party which meant very little to me, I hate to sound ungrateful but to be honestly, I'm not grateful for it

activate a 2022 VM on a 2019 hyper-V host that has a 2022 data center license for it?

Hey all,
We are currently running hyper-v on 2019. I need to install a 2022 VM server due to application requirements. the hyper-V servers have 2022 datacenter licensing, but are still on 2019... I dont have time to upgrade the hyper-v hosts at this time.
If we went this route, how could i activate the 2022 VM, because i don't think AVMA works on higher versions than the host, despite being within licensing compliance for it.
Or am I mistaken and this isnt possible?

"I'm dying"

About four months ago, my (31F) dad (73) told me, "I'm dying." He would always say so jokingly, even when it was just a small cold. This time, I just didn't feel it the same way and I didn't laugh. Two weeks later he was diagnosed with metastatic cancer in the liver, they couldn't pinpoint where the original cancer came from. One week later he was having urgent palliative chemotherapy. He died three weeks later, just one week before my birthday, and then the holidays came.
Those words - "I'm dying" - just keep repeating on my head eventhough they weren't his last words to me. He was my best friend, my confidant, the person I could debate about politics, learn about history, talk about medicine, and laugh at stupid jokes.
My dad adopted me when I was 16, but he had been taking care of me since I was 4. He always said, "You are MY daughter," and he would get upset if anyone dared to tell him otherwise. His family on the other hand, never thought the same about my mom and me. They even said so to my face once when I was 18, my aunt and grandma literally said, "You are never going to be part of this family" while hugging my cousin in front of me.
During these last months, while his hea
