The catch there is word gets around and eventually migrant labor stops showing up at your farm. One of the reasons farmers are pushing so hard for relaxing oversight on H-2A visas is because having workers locked into your farm gets us a lot closer to Saudi style indentured servitude compared to having a “free market” migrant labor force. I’m not sure what visa Uline is using, but I bet those workers are trapped.

If that’s true the sequence of events will be something like:

• Trump demands the ship be sent immediately because he doesn’t understand what “dry dock” is.
• Someone in the chain of command who understands how bad that is uses proper channels to politely call for a small delay.
• That officer is immediately fired. Right-wing media starts rumor they are a trans immigrant when a document from 2012 is found where they listed pronouns.
• The officer is replaced with a 26-year-old toadie who has a background in podcasting about flat earth.
• Toadie immediately sends the ship.
• Ship sustains heavy damage from corrosion because it wasn’t painted yet, or some shit.
• The hospital ship spends 90 days sitting off-shore in Greenland. During this time it treats a handful of patients who, it later turns out, got paid to be there and aren’t even citizens of Greenland.
• Ship returns to USA to actually do the refit, where it turns out the damage is now catastrophic.
• Jared Kushner receives contract to build replacement ship, named “USS TRUMP 12” because we have 11 other USS TRUMPs.
• The money changes hands.
• The ship is never built.
• This is only reported by Common Dreams.

edit: fuck it, made it more elaborate.

Even that’s generous. It’s like someone added gelling agent to a vat of cold corn syrup.

CLI installation guide is perfect, thank you.

Thanks, I plan on doing this when my phone dies. Just some questions:

A computer with a Chromium-based browser (e.g., Google Chrome, Brave, Microsoft Edge, Vivaldi?). Unfortunately, I must recommend Windows 10/11 here, because then you don’t have to mess around with any drivers; it’s the simplest option.

This is the first I’ve read this, how much of a pain is it to use Linux instead? I don’t have any Windows computers.

First of all, we need to make sure that our phone’s software is updated to the latest available version. For this purpose, we go to Settings -> System -> System update. If necessary, we update

How is this possible if the previous step skipped SIM and Wifi setup? I assume, if there’s updates, to setup Wifi then proceed?

securing the phone with a fingerprint; I personally am an advocate of this solution…

Recommend not doing this for users in the USA, as police can compel you to unlock biometric locks. Yes, it’s fucked up, that’s what happens when octogenarian fascists run all three branches of your government.

His health was so fucked it has its own wikipedia page: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Health_of_Charles_Darwin

Yeah, I fantasize about moving “sideways” often. Wherever I am, I wonder what that location is like in the untouched East/West + 1. Then I remember I have some medical metal in my body. It’s not critical, but it would be a little worrisome to jump back and see it sitting on the ground.

As someone who occasionally peers into the Bigfoot fandom, trans-dimensional, alien Bigfoot is a thing. As in, the reason we haven’t found him yet is because he can disappear into portals. Sort of like “The Long Earth” but instead of Terry Pratchett it’s poorly written youtube scripts with AI thumbnails.

Not quite the same thing as 3-in-ONE, but these folks are Canadian. For example ACF-50 gets used on snowblower augers.

Right… so bringing hundreds, or maybe thousands, of gallons of a fatty emulsion up to a specific temperature for a specific amount of time and then chilling it again. Also must be food grade material and will require frequent cleaning/sterilizing. Don’t forget the energy cost either. A lot more expensive than not doing any of this.

These raw milk people think the dairy industry just decided one day to start pasteurizing… an expensive process that requires special equipment… just for shits? People were fed up with watching their children die…

I’m also convinced these people have never seen the hind end of a cow.

One actor, alone in a black box theater, performing this as a monologue would be more interesting.

Investment money has basically dried up. Even indies need that, unless you mean the “one person in their garage working off Patreon” type of studio. For awhile Chinese companies were holding down the fort and trying to expand in North America, but they’ve largely withdrawn that strategy and focused on domestic production. That’s why so many indie studios working on their first game shut down in the last two years.

For this to reverse itself interest rates will need to come down, but for that to happen without catastrophic inflation we would need several years of un-fucked monetary policy. So basically it’s fucked for a long time and possibly will never exist again in the way it did. This is on top of all the other issues the vfx/game industries have with crunch, chaotic management, etc.

IDK, it’s fun to think about because maybe the 128 bit UUID is still being used due to 40k-like levels of technical debt, and also weird edge cases that cause ID explosion. Like maybe the 4000 year old spec says we need to track micrometeoroids too, sorry.

TFW you live in a galaxy-spanning super civilization but your planet is dying because its ID in the central database has a UUID collision with another planet 80000 light years away.

New Year’s Resolution: I’m going to “reform” my body by going from obese to morbidly obese.

I just remember it being really expensive. I think it was $4 to rent? Plus the looming potential late fees. Whatever it was, at the time it seemed like a fortune. So you couldn’t really fuck around and rent “Mansquito 2: Womansquito” just for laughs because it really was a huge ripoff when a movie sucked, or was damaged, or something. Also the popular movies were never in stock. They would put hundreds of empty boxes on the shelves to make it seem like it was there, but the actual tapes were always gone.
