Maybe Chicago. It’s been years: I used to like going once or twice a year and convinced my ex we had to do it for the kids
Edit: or maybe that Billy Joel show
Pumpkin seeds? Cool
I recently got both hemp hearts and pumpkin seeds, and have no idea what to do with either
I still remember when my state required large pickups to have commercial licenses and have commercial insurance. Adding a few extra hoops to jump through could be similar to abolishing pickups while still allowing reasonable exceptions, maybe requiring extra drivers training
I know it could be personal bias but a lot of pickup drivers don’t seem capable of staying in their lane, taking a turn, maneuver in a parking lot. We need to recognize these are huge vehicles and require a little extra skill to drive.
And they should lose that license if they leave the trailer hitch in while they’re parking over a sidewalk
Yeah these hit me more than anything else. Not just that I’m attu ed to science but the damage to our country’s future far outweighs anything else.
Corruption can be prosecuted, racism can be condemned, even climate change just makes things worse for a few years longer and we’ll have to figure out how to deal, constitutional violations can be corrected with a new Congress, human rights can be reclaimed …. It’ll never be justice but it can be reversed.
Losing science may never be reversible. Science that drives our technology, our medicine, the entire huge research industry. As scientists are driven away, that’s a very long trail of technology, medicine, research done elsewhere, generations of children and students looking elsewhere
Actually I think of losing science like climate tipping points. If climate change were simply change, we could adapt and reverse. It would be foolish to do that intentionally do ourselves but we could deal with it. But crossing climate tipping points are a much bigger deal, much harder to adapt and likely never reversible
Dry? Plain? Flavorless? Even if you start with good bread with flavor, toasting it takes that flavor away. But I’m not going to judge if you want my toast. Dry, plain, flavorless toast with nothing on it. Enjoy!
Yeah none of that, but one of my kids is a pretty serious weightlifter, so I need some serious equipment for when they’re home from school for the summer.
And an exercycle for cardio when the weather isn’t good
Started with the cycle: a high end machine for dirt cheap off Marketplace. Then dumbbells (except they’re only up to 30 lbs and he uses higher). Most recently found a deal on an Olympic bar and plates. Now comes the hard part: benches and racks, and I’m running out of time to find them on Marketplace
Aren’t most of these already partly deprecated 5 years ago when 3G wireless shut down (in the us).
I replaced my kindle back then
Why would anyone care about poor whites in the mountains? Let them survive in their hovels and shovel coal. They had no organization or other power to affect anyone
This person needs to develop self-awareness: why is it only becoming a problem when it affects her directly?
Her issue doesn’t affect me at all but I still want to do the right thing. And I would never vote for Trump because it was pretty clear he wouldn’t do the right thing, in many human right and quality of life scenarios
(Plus he had a long history as a con man from before he ran for election, before he paid for his sleazy reality show to reset his reputation: I’m still confused how people could fall for this)
I gotta admit to one particular nightmare here
Setting up a home gym in my garage to hopefully remove my excuses ….. but years back an acquaintance died while using his home gym in his garage, and was discovered by family. You don’t usually think of exercise as a deadly risk but it happens. Since I live alone, the nightmare is it would be a long time before I was discovered and that much more traumatic if it were family
Literally watching a presentation right now where they quoted “Use AI intentionally, not as the only answer”
On the other hand my human knowledge is invalidated because my kpis focus more on how frequently I use ai than on what I do
In my real life, also mostly no. My kids are in college, so they mostly need their bills paid and I rarely see them in person
I just got an Airthings Radon monitor, and the integration with HA went smoothly. As a starting dashboard I have a simple card displaying sensor values.
But I let myself get carried away and got the one with the most sensors. So expected to see history graphs so I can look at trends or events, but it never occurred to me they were all different units and scales. HA wants to create many charts, which is less easy to read.
Does anyone have dashboard ideas on how to display these?
I found this online and tried it tonight. It turned out amazing, and photogenic!
The only catch was it called for pan searing the salmon 8-10 minutes but mine took over 20
Rice was just a rice cooker. I used broth instead of water and glopped in some lemon juice when it was ready
This is one of my last “good” meals before my youngest moves out to college, so it was a big deal to turn out so well.
I can really only compare to Reddit and find the dedicated generally better
But those outliers are a doozy. I don’t recall even wanting to block anyone on Reddit but have blocked at least half a dozen here. Just earlier today I had to because we were enjoying a nice discussion, then someone stumbled in saying they’ve debated politics with me, starts attacking, trying to start an argument over something completely unrelated ….. Reddit had plenty of trolls but I never encountered anyone there who followed me around to be an asshole.
So on the one hand the capability of blocking anyone is a great way to stop seeing the most toxic part of the fediverse, but on the other hand there’s got to be a more permanent solution
