Kaiser, which is a major hmo here in California, has been putting solar panel parking shade in their lots. The community college in my town has it too. I can’t think of any downsides to them other than the installation cost. Everyone likes shade from sun and rain, and free electricity.
Yeah, the R’s are the ammosexuals. They’re so afraid that libruls will take their guns away that they stockpile them. I know a couple Dems who collect guns as a hobby, but I think most of us who own have just one or two for the purpose of self/home defense.
It’s your right to vote 3rd party, but doing so makes it only more likely that Trump will take office and ruin not just Palestine but the ability for Arab Americans and possibly every foreign born, and possibly non-white person in general, to live in the US. In our current political system, third parties count for nothing, it’s a wasted vote. I’m not thrilled by Biden either but voting for president has to be strategic.
In a collaborative effort, Apple and Google have developed an industry-standard detection feature called “Detecting Unwanted Location Trackers” (DULT) for Bluetooth trackers. This standard allows users on iOS and Android devices to be alerted if an unknown Bluetooth tracker is monitoring their location.
I bought airtags for my luggage and keys, but they’re registered to my iPad which is not my EDC device and is large. My main device is an Android. If I don’t take the iPad with me, eventually my Android will pop up with an “unknown tracker following you” message. The message iets you ring it to locate it, but nothing else. The annoyingest thing is that i cannot tell the android phone it is mine and known, and please stop pinging me about it.

The media has traded objectivity for eyeballs. Ever since that orange clown started running the first time it’s been a nonstop attention grabber and that’s all the media wants now. Good or bad attention doesn’t matter, it’s just attention, and Trump draws it out massively. Media doesn’t want it to stop.

I’m pretty sure it was Melania who noped him out of that. It wouldn’t surprise me if Trump didn’t bother actually asking the kid if he wanted to do it before trying to shove him up on stage.
I feel like it would be a balm to the majority of people to see him finally actually get consequences for his actions rather than just threats that he keeps ignoring. But the justice system and politicians are afraid of that noisy, mostly white minority that is allegedly armed and claims to be willing to use force.

And Wirecutter used to be good but they will occasionally point out how highly rated something is, and cross checking against falespot et al indicates a lot of fake reviews.

I’d love to see it too, but I’m pretty sure that between the the logistics of locking up a former President and the very apparent dementia there’s going to be some kind of clemency. As long as he is permanently barred from political activity, is sentenced to some form of house arrest, and of course has to pay whatever restitution is required, I’d be okay with that.

I want to see a photo of Letitia James standing in the doorway of Trump Tower spinning the keys around her finger. And smiling that Cheshire cat smile.
But she does have somewhat of a point. Though it’s female and tech and medical - a closer comparison - women in tech leadership roles do get more questioned on their competence than do men.
Exactly. When you’re on mobile, the website will check and automatically switch you to the mobile version. If you’re on desktop and click a mobile link, that switch doesn’t happen, and everything is giant font and wide margins. The assumption is that desktop is still the default means of viewing. And when inserting a link from mobile, it’s not that hard to delete the m.
Thanks! 2017 had much more sun coverage, it was more like 75-80% and I remember the loss of light was noticeable. I have some photos from that one too :)
Here you go. The large shots were taken by putting my phone camera to the eyepiece of a bird spotting scope, so there’s a lot of interference on the edges and the images aren’t nearly as clear. And as you can see it was cloudy that day.
