graycube,

Anarchy seems more likely to mr than fascism in the aftermath of such an election outcome. Trump has too many haters for there to be a peaceful transition this time.

graycube,

I believe you can grow them as long as they are more than 150 feet from a white pine tree. The plants were originally banned because they were blamed for some sort of disease that jeopardized the lumber industry.

graycube,

You know how Trump likes to project? First the whole birth certificate thing, and now this. I'm becoming increasingly convinced he is an illegal immigrant.

graycube,

Sander Katz has a book called "The Revolution Will Not Be Microwaved" which holds up the microwave as the prime example of what is wrong with modern eating.

I suggest looking into cooking with cast iron skillets. There are tons of great and simple foods you can make with couple of inexpensive cast iron pans. There used to be a cast iron cookery subreddit. There may be one here, I haven't looked yet.

Another essential is a good wok. (cast iron or otherwise) Basically you throw a bunch of semi-random stuff and some sauce iron seasoning in a wok and heat it up. The variations are endless, quick, and often tasty once you get the hang of it.

Can homeless people be fined for sleeping outside? A rural Oregon city asks the US Supreme Court (apnews.com)

The scenes were emblematic of the crisis gripping the small, Oregon mountain town of Grants Pass, where a fierce fight over park space has become a battleground for a much larger, national debate on homelessness that has reached the U.S. Supreme Court....

graycube,

Fines will teach those people who have no money to get more money.

graycube,

They are going to lose it even more when they watch the new Willie Nelson/Orville Peck video.

graycube,

Yes. It is your fault if some company got hacked because your screensaver didn't come on for 30 minutes. Climate change is also your fault because you didn't recycle that yogurt container. Likewise that listeria poisoning you got you shouldn't have eaten at that restaurant chain.

graycube,

The main Russian news organization is call "Pravda", which is Russian for "Truth". Their social media arm therefore, translated to English, would probably be called "Truth Social".

graycube,

I don't think people are buying DJT because they expect to make money. It is more of a cult and prestige stock. One article called it a "meme stock". This makes the price harder to predict because it isn't based on numbers but something much less tangible. Throw in some securities fraud, and a few billionaires thinking it is another way to bribe or gain access to his majesty and this is a ticker I wouldn't touch with a 20 foot pole.

graycube,

The Supreme Court is setting them free however.

graycube,

It is likely to disrupt shipping in a major US port. This will have repercussions throughout the economy until the port is fully reopened.

House Republicans had a bad day: Most of them voted against a sweeping funding bill. One threatened to overthrow Speaker Johnson. Another Republican resigned early. And Santos caused turmoil in N.Y. (www.nbcnews.com)

Friday began with House conservatives holding a press conference to trash the $1.2 trillion spending bill their leaders negotiated with Democrats, sparking some fears about its prospects....

graycube,

It is less about being on the fence versus being motivated to actually go vote. Most people are like "whatever", and "my vote doesn't matter anyhow" and "if I vote, I'm going to get jury duty". If the politicians can't get people to vote, they lose.

graycube,

So many men wearing dresses. This photo would be banned in several US states.

graycube,

When you are campaigning to establish a dictatorship, you don't need down ballot candidates to win.

graycube,

Hormones. Specifically your thyroid can dramatically change your weight by Hormones production. In my case my thyroid has almost completely shutdown. I could just eat a carrot every day and still gain weight without synthetic hormones. I believe it can sometimes go the other way make it hard to gain weight. I strongly encourage having hormone levels checked and balanced. I wish I'd known about this 20 or 30 years ago.

graycube,

White males from privileged backgrounds for "the win". Too bad for Florida because it's been proven over and over that a diverse organization has a strong competitive and productivity edge. At least the white boys will have somewhere to strut.

graycube,

Biden is a neoliberal centrist. If leftists vote for him it is because they have no other choice. It is why his support is so weak at the grass roots. And so strong amongst the capitalist elites. His far right opponent is a racist and crook, but runs a strong populist game. Those are our only two choices.

graycube,

Olive seems pretty good but it is really hard to get working.

graycube,

I think it would be uncanny if a partner didn't grow, age, and evolve with you and the world around you. Nothing seems to stay the same. While one dimension may fade away, others emerge. If you are lucky, you get to grow old. Daydreaming about starting over, trying something new, and feeling young again is natural. At least with current technology, it is mostly just daydreams.

graycube,

It is usually my first choice card for things. I think they have the best customer relations, web site, and terms of the major card companies. I really hope Capital One fails to acquire them.

graycube,

I've been using Alacritty (on Wayland) for the past few years. I like it's customizability. My only real complaint is that there are times when I really miss having scrollbars. After reading this thread I'll have to give kitty a try. I think I tried it a couple if years ago and was not impressed, but maybe it has gotten a lot better since then.

graycube,

Having looked closer, kitty just looks too complicated. I just want a nice terminal. Kitty doesn't have scrollbars either. I'll stick with Alacritty for now.

graycube, (edited )

I have friends who tell me they like Trump because he is "strong". I asked them for examples where "strong" was not just a code word for racist and sexist. I'm wondering if they'll come back with this as an example of being strong?

graycube,

You can already return complex data structures using jsonagg and recursive queries. I can see wanting to make that easier and more intuitive to do. Current sql does not restrict you to just 2D table data structures though.

graycube,

What do you think we are spraying when we spray for mosquitos? Of course it is to help the little flying pests turn Christians gay. Really. Have you ever seen the mosquito population actually go down? Do you really know what is in that spray? You just assumed, and now you too are gay.
