While I agree with you, I’m not sure Chromebooks should count as “using tech” for the sake of learning. If you really want to give a younger generation experience with technology there are far better systems for them to learn on.

Just a minor bit of pedantry, but Social Security Numbers are generally abbreviated as SSN, SSID usually refers to a “Service Set Identifier” aka WiFi network name.

I dislike civil asset forfeiture as it’s generally used, but there’s nothing really stopping us from using the government to just nationalize those companies/means of production. Obviously we’ll have to get the Epstein class out of government first, but I truly believe this should be a part of the Epstein class’s punishment for their part in everything (in addition to more traditional punishments like prison, etc).

It’s not much, but one I wrote on a note at my desk a few months ago: “Hang in there, you’ve got graves to piss on.”

To add some extra detail to this, she struggled for a second after saying the dow was over 50,000 with what unit that was, started to say dollars, but interrupted herself halfway through the word dollars to accuse Sen Jamie Raskin of being good at stock trading (hinting at the admittedly pretty open trading by congress members and senators that definitely resembles insider trading).

But the point I was trying to get around to was that the DOW is an index, and unit she should have used was “points” not “dollars.” And then Peter Navarro got on Maria Bartatomo’s Fox News Sunday show and also referred to the DOW being over “50,000 dollars.”

So, yes, fundamentally Pam Bondi gave a really callous non-answer to something anyone with a functioning heart really cares about, but in her deflection/non-answer she also showed her own ignorance about the subject she was trying to use as a deflection.

Distance running has been scientifically linked to an increase in colon cancer rates, and CrossFit could easily be similarly unhealthy as far as inducing extra stress on the intestine by being an activity that can lead to dehydration while violently shaking things around in there more than what could be considered “normal.”

Haven’t had a chance to really look into it, but there’s also spacebar chat which is an open source selfhosted reimplementation of the discord backend that can be used with existing discord clients and bots and stuff. Which depending on how solid the rest of if is, could really help existing discord people move with less effort.

As someone who was a “store manager” at a franchise with only 2 employees (including myself) this is kinda real. I left in 2012 because even in my early 20s I could see the direction things were going because of corporate mismanagement.

Renee Good’s murderer recorded the incident on his own phone, which was then released as if it was somehow evidence of his innocence.

One big downside to ham radio (as someone with my license) is that you can’t use encryption. Which is fine for some use cases, but does limit the usefulness in the “government shut down the internet” kind of scenario.

Which, I suppose if you’re already using back-channels to circumvent some broader government censorship, maybe abiding by FCC rules isn’t a priority anymore, but IMO this is an area where large mesh networks of “consumer” devices with encryption very much still has value.

“Low-energy beverages” sounds like a dumb Trump insult for caffeine-free diet soda.

He wants a hemisphere, would make way more sense to claim the northern one rather than the western hemisphere. He just needs to have someone help him understand that he’s not getting the best hemisphere.
