True but he's sparking more interest in FOSS so that's still a good thing. I doubt his advice is perfect but if it gets more people started onto their own journey it's a win.

For what it's worth, something like 1 in 4 adults have it. Most don't even know.

And the people are using crowdsourcing to identify lCE.

I told my people it's Signal or you're simply not hearing from me.

It's also possible a critter shorted the contacts. Happens all the time in Florida. Usually the fried lizard is still there.

I'm saying Florida absolutely needs dedicated bus lanes.

Not lucky at all. YOU did this and it's ok to be proud!

As someone who grew up in Florida, I remember a time when it was common for speeding vehicles to discover a stopped bus in front of them and drive over a bus stop full of people because it was the only exit.

Obviously they shouldn't have been speeding in the first place but Florida is gonna Florida. Not to mention traffic is a shitshow to begin with so if they go back to having busses stop right there in the lane it's only going to make things worse.

At last it's an inexpensive and easy fix. Just buy another capacitor with the same specs and swap them out. Better yet, buy two! Keep one as a backup.

Only in the United States is it more safe to be in jail. Fuckin clown country.

I'm in the middle of a similar journey now and it has been eye opening. I've dreamed of living up in the mountains. In practice, it's a huge pain in the ass! Narrow winding roads that take hours to drive just to get to the nearest anything! If I was living off the land with little need to venture out it might be ok, but I'm finding I'd prefer OP's current situation. Far enough to have some peace and quiet but within reasonable reach to civilization.

 
 
 
 

“The reason we’re here is because the government of the United States wants you to leave the United States,” Judge Ubaid ul-Haq, presiding from a courtroom on Varick Street, told a group of about a dozen children on a recent morning on Webex.

The parties included a 7-year-old boy, wearing a shirt emblazoned with a pizza cartoon, who spun a toy windmill while the judge spoke. There was an 8-year-old girl and her 4-year-old sister, in a tie-dye shirt, who squeezed a pink plushy toy and stuffed it into her sleeve. None of the children were accompanied by parents or attorneys, only shelter workers who helped them log on to the hearing.

Immigrant advocates and lawyers say an increasing number of migrant children are making immigration court appearances without the assistance of attorneys, which they say will lead to more children getting deported.

“That child will be ordered deported from this country — that could all happen without that child ever speaking with an attorney and given the opportunity to obtain representation,” Shah said. “The cruelty is really apparent to all of us out here in the field.”

Original Post:

Am I supposed to be excited? How bad must your resturant be running if the best you've got to offer is your excess ice.

Update:

Some of you have expressed criticism of how I've framed this. You guys are right. I'm fuckin losing it.

I think I've been spending too much time reading news, seeing dead babies, Názis taking over the country, the cIimate crisis etc.. I'm not being sarcastic, I think this shit has fucked me up. I'm at the point where seeing a sign for lce is perceived as bleak doom.

I need to take a break from, everything. Thank you for holding up the mirror.
