I was hoping to see this comment. That book is great, as are most of Christopher Moore’s books.

“Meh, fuck it. Good enough. We’ll fix it in phase two.”

I want up, down, on, off. If I feel the need to tinker, I’ll start yet another project that I’ll probably never finish.

It’s pretty solid.

Crampons help.

They show the shirt in the video. It’s a plain black t with white and red lettering.

Edit: The shirt appears at the 28 second mark.

I like Deezer. I’ve been using it and telling people about it since Spotify was insistent about being focused on chasing a politically charged content (over) investment instead of delivering quality, behavior driven content based on their algo.

$24 USD for two tests. $2 where?

I need more. What is this from?

It’s easy to avoid buying things from Amazon. It’s hard to avoid AWS. It would be insane to try to suss out what provider everyone that I buy stuff from uses, and their third party relationships. Regulation is better.

They also tend to make them stand at the beginning of their lane when they don’t have customers. Apparently a light signaling that they are available just isn’t enough.

Edit: My bad. I’ve never seen this at Aldi or Lidl. Just other US chains like Food Lion.

I love the concept of a pseudo Mastodon crosspost.

I agree, but isn’t it fun that the Harris campaign is using Musk’s platform to counter Trump, and in this case Musk.

This is happening in Missouri.

“Her family had routinely used the generator when the power was out, including during the 2021 freeze, which resulted in the worst carbon monoxide poisoning event in recent history. They always kept the device at a safe distance to prevent the colorless, odorless gas from seeping inside. On July 11, however, they moved it a few feet closer to their home in Cleveland, Texas, placing it under the porch in anticipation of rain from the hurricane.”

“The family did not have a CO detector. Nothing in state law required them to. At the time of the 2021 winter storm, Texas was one of six states with no statewide requirement for CO detectors in homes…”

My generator manual is pretty specific about this risk. It also mentions not pointing the exhaust toward the dwelling.

They seem to take issue with the donation solicitation.

I’m for it, but increasing the size requires a Congressional majority. Sadly, we’re not there. FDR took a run at it and fractured the party. The fear is that if Democrats are able to do it, then the next Republican majority will do the same. I don’t think this consideration has merit. They are likely to do it anyway should they have the ability when the court doesn’t have a right bias.

I think there are better ways to go about it. The whole structure is flawed as it concentrates a wealth of power to small amount of people. Something like using a lottery composed of the federal appellate court judges for each case. In theory, many cases could be tried simultaneously as there are about 180. Those bringing the cases would also not have insight as to the court’s composition. They’d have to rely solely on the merit of their case.

I like this item. It’s a bit dated, and the source leans left; but so does reality:
