Tricky, as the Tesla would also have to be stopping/stopped for decent impact. Better as a cure for a tailgater, maybe.

Lol, Apple thinks it’s user base is annoyed by the length and subtilty of headlines. AI to the rescue!

Some people just want to be criminals. They are gamblers or just enjoy feeling superior

Of all the times to worry about being perceived as opportunistic “on the way out”. After a year of worrying about perception “during the campaign”. And three other years of “reaching across the aisle”. Like trying to choose a place to eat with my family except it’s the direction of our country in a time of rapid global change.

You’re the one giving them money every day for sugar water. I just said to maybe stop?

I’m just going to be unpopular for a minute here and say if you find yourself drinking out of single use disposable containers everyday, take some time to see if you can change that, even a little bit.

The future “goals” listed here are so lame I don’t think you can pretend there’s a sustainable way for billions of people to have that habit.

The first proposal for separate Jewish and Arab states in the territory was made by the British Peel Commission report in 1937.[3] In 1947, the United Nations General Assembly adopted a partition plan for Palestine, leading to the 1948 Palestine war.[4][5] As a result, Israel was established on the area the UN had proposed for the Jewish state, as well as almost 60% of the area proposed for the Arab state. Israel took control of West Jerusalem, which was meant to be part of an international zone. Jordan took control of East Jerusalem and what became known as the West Bank, annexing it the following year. The territory which became the Gaza Strip was occupied by Egypt but never annexed. Since the 1967 Six-Day War, both the West Bank (including East Jerusalem) and Gaza Strip have been militarily occupied by Israel, becoming known as the Palestinian territories.

Basically from the beginning until 2014, that has been the basis of every proposal.

In October 2024, Salt Typhoon was discovered to have exploited backdoors in US internet service provider networks used by law enforcement agencies to facilitate court-authorized wiretapping.[9] Affected networks included those of AT&T, Verizon, Lumen Technologies, and T-Mobile.

What is it with all this regulation? I’ll be so happy when people are free to make their own choices based on myth and legend

Adding to this, beware of progressive lenses. Get dedicated readers if you need them for the distance of your screen so you don’t have to tilt your head even a little.

I wonder if it would take more or less time with auto-complete.

I’ve used this giorgio regni app on Android for years with various random earbuds.

The only option on its menu that reliably does anything for me is called “morphine pain killer”, but it was a game changer for me for incapacitating sea sickness (believe me I had tried so many things I don’t think I had any placebo potential left). On land, I’ve found it effective for post surgery pain, nerve pain, and even the odd depressive crying jag. I guess at this point I’m a believer so I’d be curious to know what effect it has on a “fresh” patient. I don’t think I’ve tried it just for kicks, though, so not sure what you’ll notice if you’re already feeling ok.

This reminds me of the time, in college, when a Christian fellowship leader gave us all a list of alternatives to sex, including

1. Passing chocolate from mouth to mouth
2. Naked wrestling…

Maybe this is normal, but I just learned last week that in Washington, if a candidate has lost the open primary they cannot be a write in candidate.

You make a good point about how workers have been played against each other to the disadvantage of all. However, there is a lot of area between illegal immigrants and full citizens who are comfortable bringing their employers to court. Many legal immigrants spend years in situations where being fired or quitting would mean having to leave the country. Depending on what they’d be going back to or what family and life they have built here in the meantime, they may be less free to rock the boat even if they felt confident in the legal system. Even citizens would be unlikely to take a stand without the support of some larger group.

Thanks for that link, amazing. I didn’t realize how unlikely US is to change copyright length, or how important the creative commons license was

If the people doing the work are “eating the profits” I feel like that’s what’s supposed to happen?

Where else should the profits go…

Decimeter is used in older American botany books for some reason. Only place I’ve ever seen it

I tried this two times now, but with no luck. I was off any medication for months before the second try because I’d read that ssris can prevent the effects of mushrooms, so now I worry the effect of SSRIs may be permanent because I felt absolutely no effect besides a little nausea. Was that not a factor for your wife?

I super agree! I helped my daughter attend a zoom class on software based synths during covid, and had so much fun fiddling with making weird sounds and loops within loops. I forget the name, algorithm or something? Pd?. And you can get kits to solder up little real life circuits to string together, each one adds a whole dimension to what you can make the sounds do. Easy to get into and incrementally build on.
