Yeah, I was told that I have no idea what living paycheck to paycheck actually is like because I have a 401k.

And the drawback to a laser is that they can be very easy to see where it’s coming from.

Caltrops are ridiculously easy to make from a box of nails, a torch and a welder.

I know that the Black Panthers have a history of protecting polls while armed, but perhaps it’s time we allow people of all colors to be armed and protecting the polls.

There’s a lot more of us than there are of ICE.

Horrible for all involved.

I’ve been the boss in this situation, and it sucks.

And a year later I was there with HR and my boss.

Fuck HR.

It doesn’t have to be unhealthy. They do have salads and grilled chicken, and even grilled chicken salads. Of course, the healthy items are quite a bit more expensive than the unhealthy items ($3 for large fries vs $4.20 for kale salad).

Give Marjorie credit for at least figuring it out

Don’t think she didn’t know it was a grift the entire time. She got in, got hers and is now getting out so she can do the whole ‘news consultant’ gig. The only thing I’ll give her credit for is that she might just open a couple of eyes… but I don’t think she’s doing that out of a sense of service to her country, but instead it is just part of her personal rebranding.

I’d go with the DSL option before paying Comcast anything. I swore I’d never use them again in 2004 and every place I’ve moved since one of my requirements is an ISP that isn’t Comcast. When I moved into my house I found the Comcast cable buried in my back yard and chopped it. Fuck em!

God only asks for 10%… shows you what Apple thinks of themselves.

I hope he lives long enough to stand trial once a same government reemerges. Would love to see this fucker prosecuted and standing before a firing squad.

Bikes, masked and no cell phones. Don’t give them anything.

Kinda hard to get a fetus into heaven when it was never given the chance to have water sprinkled over it.

Don’t forget the middle part where he used the US military to kill a bunch of people and kidnap her main political foe.

I believe that if I were a past recipient of the Nobel Peace Prize I would be returning it. Not the money though, because fuck 'em, I’ll keep the money.

Don’t forget that we’re going to ‘use the military on Iran’ because they are… um, cracking down on protesters.

Just follow the bees

As a tourist to many large cities… this would be amazing. Nothing worse than being out and away from your hotel and suddenly you have to find a restroom, and there’s none around.

Just a tip, I’ve had a lot of success just walking into a nearby hotel and using their lobby restroom. It probably helps that I’m white and middle aged and I’m comfortable entering a place like I should be there (and I’m usually dressed ‘business casual’).

Congress shall make no law…

Or else, what?

And I’m sure they will argue that since it says ‘shall’ and not ‘must’ then it’s just a suggestion.

It works in Europe too. It uses LoRa (A Long Range radio protocol) to be able to send messages out to other nodes, which can bounce them out to further nodes. A node can be configured to relay through the Internet to reach people in other areas.

I ordered the radio shown below from a kit on Amazon (it’s a Heltec v4 and came with a battery that isn’t pictured) and it took about 5 minutes to setup. Attaching the antenna to the board was the hardest part.

Great points, and there’s some amazing discussions going on here!

One thing I’d like to add is EVERYONE needs to start setting up some meshtastic nodes. It’s really easy to setup (just hook up a USB cable from your computer to a esp32 board, visit a website to get the configuration, and that’s pretty much it), it’s cheap (as little as $30) and it is secure. Build 2 nodes (one to leave at home, and another for your backpack). This way you’ll be able to communicate should the Internet become unavailable or unsafe. You can also use this at a protest so that you still have a means of communication without needing to bring your phone that the Feds will be able to track.

Not them… their family members. Spouses, siblings, parents, kids. There are no rules any more.
