Don't threaten Republicans with learning history. These kids would be so angry if they could read.

Current corporate TV Schumer is backing the shutdown, but 9:43pm behind the scenes five gimlet deep Schumer thinks it would tear the country apart.

The FAQ is all about solving problems using chrome. It was probably the default browser at the time the code was written (is my uneducated guess). Unless it uses Chrome's screen sharing, I wouldn't think Chrome is needed. But, I just glanced at things, so don't take that as gospel.

I grew up pretty certain in the ideas that AIDs was gay cancer, Boy George was straight, Marilyn Manson had a rib removed to perform auto fellatio, Mother Theresa was the very idea of kindness, a girl couldn't get pregnant if she sucked on you after cumming in her, and that jet fuel could melt steel beams.

(Some of those I only half-believed and maybe not all the best examples)

Some Botox and some amphetamines can probably do quite a bit.

Dude, next time use a healthy badger and you'll only have to deal with blowback from NMS.

It's probably funny if you don't think poors or women in general are actually people.

The worst kind.

Not to mention sports coat, suit jacket, etc if it's some professional thing you're doing. That shit and the shit to protect that shit takes a lot of room.

They promised really hard that they'd never do it again and would work really hard to fix things until everyone was distracted or until enough time went by. It's easy to do when you're in power for fifty or sixty years straight.

That is exactly the right wing mentality. That's what they do constantly. They're stuck in junior high hero fantasies with their guns. It's embarrassingly juvenile and just as basic bitch as it gets.

From my understanding, gold mines (doesn't even have to be a mine, just a gold claim of any type) have certain legal exemptions for trespassing from the olden days. At least in most areas that I'm aware of. It's basically the Castle Doctrine but can be applied if it seems like another person is even attempting to visit your claim. Not much room for concerns of "what happened?" when the only question that needs answered is "were they there?"

Florida moving to end all childhood vaccine mandates, DeSantis says, making it first state to do so ( www.cbsnews.com )

Governor Ron DeSantis and state Surgeon General Dr. Joseph Ladapo have announced that Florida will work to phase out all childhood vaccine mandates in the state, making it the first in the nation to do so. Vaccines protecting against once-common and sometimes deadly childhood diseases like polio and measles have long been ...

Wonder how long before you have to report trips to the US before giving blood or such.

If that's satire, it's hilarious. If not...

Using the Ecobee thermostat, I use the built in weather module in Home Assistant to give local weather data to the system. In summer, I set it up to watch for the lowest overnight temps via forecast, and trigger on the lowest temperatures we'd see. Then I'd drop the house temp to 66 or 64 degrees when the AC had to do the least amount of work. Then I'd use the basement air to keep the upstairs cool enough and use the AC as little as possible.

My last house was old and had some drafts I couldn't find. So in the winter, if the weather turned to windy I'd increase the temp a degree or two for comfort.

There can be sportsmanship now with others because he got his. Which is the only important part. Whatever happens after he gets his is "meh, whatever"

I am old enough to remember when people got paid enough to do those things in their middle aged years..

My guess is that Stephen Miller knows that Vance can't hold three pieces of paper together and will try to ramp up martial law to retain power. Which they don't have the manpower to do without the actual military who likely would not follow such orders. The national guard would likely start doing malicious compliance at best and ICE flat out doesn't have enough people to control blocks of a city let alone the country. I can't even imagine where things would go from there.

gdog05 ,

They have no training at all for anything but they've got so much tacticool shit. It counts for nothing but they've got that.

Anything that you're aware of that will also strip out the 28 minutes of commercials in a 36 minute podcast?

I will check that out, thank you!

I will help hand hold anyone who wants to build servers or services (to the best of my ability) to replace Google services with their own.

I don't know myself, but Graphene OS (on Google Pixel phones) has a pretty impressive sandbox layer for the play store and the apps it installs. It might be worth looking into if you're not aware of it currently. (But if you're aware of the Fairphone, I'm guessing you probably know about Graphene).

You've got some good suggestions, I think most of the suggestions I can think of. Nextcloud is of course the big one but after using it for quite a while, I think it's important to break down your needs. If you need file sharing/syncing only, there are better options that are easier and faster. If you only need chat/voice, rocket chat is really lightweight and easy. If you need file sharing, online office suite, chat, etc. Then Nextcloud is the right option. Just keep in mind, even if you think you need some of those things, will anyone but you ever actually use them? No, they won't, because they don't appreciate how cool it is to self host and how much effort you put into it.

gdog05 ,

I wouldn't self host email. But I would pay for a host and get away from Gmail. Wait until Black Friday and get free/cheap services from a bunch of places. Maybe even proton if you're okay with them. Also, using your own domain for email is pretty cool (to me).

gdog05 ,

You are correct, Graphene only runs on Pixel phones. I know there's a few open mobile OS options out there but I've not spent any time researching them. There is a very good chance if you absolutely need an identification, then you can't get away from Android. Hopefully someone else sees your comment and has an answer.

Something missing from the displayed data, not sure if the article goes into it (not going through NYT paywall bullshit to find out) but Idaho, Utah and Texas will very likely gain a blue voting electoral college vote. If, after this Trump bullshit concludes (providing it concludes), we don't have a major overhaul of how elections work including a change to first past the post, we kind of deserve fascism or all out civil war.

gdog05 ,

You're right, we've got several states, mostly Republican leaning, that are winner take all. But these extra blue seats could potentially allow for an entire state swing in some states as yaroto98 pointed out. If it doesn't do that, what it will do is piss enough people off because they're not represented to get the groundswell needed to force changes.

Texas uses special session to push “discriminatory & harmful” anti-trans & anti-abortion bills ( www.lgbtqnation.com )

Despite mounting public protest, Texas lawmakers are fast-tracking two anti-trans and anti-abortion bills. Both measures are being advanced during a special legislative session convened by Governor Greg Abbott (R), who has made restricting transgender rights and reproductive freedom central to his agenda.

gdog05 ,

They could have potentially stayed away longer but they couldn't stay away forever. At some point, this all has to come to a head. And this is not on them. They didn't create this legislation and are not the ones voting for it.

The anger should lie squarely on the Republican fucks who are making this happen without the will of the voters in many cases.

gdog05 ,

Well that's just a full fucking win.

gdog05 ,

If they pull that shit in an actual state, not a district, they can be charged with an unpardonable state crime. And I'm often a naysayer against hope, but they do not have nearly enough people to demand obedience.

It's edited in that I cropped out a chunk of the middle making it a square. Not in any way that changes the meaning or purpose of the original. Here is the product link.

I would say for the upper right quadrant, I don't think he wants to preserve the cowboy way of life so much as he laments its passing. He knows the world is changing but he wouldn't force what he wants on others. That said, I love this compass.

I totally did. That's a funny typo though

A lot of the people I know who want to jump straight into smashing shit have neither the desire or ability to help rebuild anything. They want the social media attention of being a smasher but would quickly sell out all of their positions if they had to do the silent work in the background to improve things.
