No. Transporter Chefs tend to be obsessed with filter performance and TTL (Time To Live). They keep turning off all of the "unneeded" filters. If a filter hasn't caught an issue in the last 100 transfers, it is removed (not commented out, they use "git" to catch those issues.) Eventually issues happen, but that is why they have defense in depth and so many red shirts.

Given how few "christens" are Christian, she only needs to state once that she is christian. She needs to make no actual changes, attend church, read the bible, nor pray. Heaven forbid she do something like feed the hungry, help the needy, or give her wealth to improve lives for her fellow humans.

Those that voted for this will never understand the pecking order. They will always think it is enough that they are not on the bottom, even if they are also drowning.

Right.

Remember this in the future. We have the money to provide free healthcare to all Americans and a UBI.

We choose not to.

Teslas are now asking minors for nudes.

Fuck

77,302,580 people is not half of America. It is 49.8% of the folks that bothered to vote.

More usefully,

In the 2024 presidential election, 73.6% (or 174 million people) of the citizen voting-age population was registered to vote and 65.3% (or 154 million people) voted according to new voting and registration tables released today by the U.S. Census Bureau.

I have been puzzling on this, and am here to leave a link to a Wikipedia article touching on the subject. Jesus in comparative mythology

I am of the opinion that not discussing these things is an analog to the Paradox of Tolerance, if not being exactly what the Paradox is about. If we don't discuss the hatefulness, then the hateful think they are doing fine.

Attacking only causes people to "dig in". Passive aggressive actions will make you look weak.

Being cordial while also calling out instances of hate as they occur would likely be fine. Be strong and confident, but keep corrections short and to the point (Imagine correctly a 5 year old. Understanding and care, not anger, and keep things in reality.) "That didn't happen.", "Why would a criminal say that?", "Toddlers visiting basketball plays, will reduce the average height, but no one gets shorter or taller."

I don't think Amazon prioritizes efficiency, but delivery speed (after sitting on the packages for days). I often seem multiple Amazon trucks going to the same house in a day.

Maybe Governors need to deploy the National Guard to watch the "Texas" Nation Guard.

I really hope the next states to have the "Texas" National Guard deployed have a better plan than lawsuits. Maybe have all National Guard personnel reviewing unlawful orders, or learning to have conflicts so they cannot deploy, or something.

 

The lines are long. The food is expensive. Everyone in the group wants to eat something different. The food taste is a gamble. There are few places to eat.

Does everyone stick together and wait in all of the lines? Split up and meet at some location? Eat on the way to the festival and just hang out?

 

I keep getting a red banner saying “Toastify is awesome” when updating. What does it mean, and what should I do differently?

I don't like subscribing to nonphysical things. I can read a physical paper a month after it arrived. Digital is faster, but I tend to lose it before I have read it.

I need a recipient in my pocket. Too often my virtual thing is lost, my device fails, or things reboot and I don't have my secure 24 digit password with me.

I won't subscribe to a digital only anything. Physical and digital is nice.

Edit: They don't even have to be identical. A digital daily with a monthly print would be nice.

 

Hello friends. Work email is crushing me. The ticketing systems, plural, email me on everyone's tucket. (Because some people only work tickets via email and others through the web interface.)

Are there any email clients or servers that allow new email to land somewhere other than the inbox? Or allow my view to start elsewhere?

I declare email bankruptcy daily....

Send whiskey.

Edit: I was unclear.

I have filtering, but those all happen after the mail is in the Inbox. I get a quarter second of crazy emails and previews and things moving, then they are gone. (Outlook sucks.)

I don't even want to see that shit. Not at all.

 

"I don't know if you saw this study the other day, but what this study clearly shows, is when people have the ability to come downtown to an office and don't, when they stay home, sitting on their couch with their nasty cat blanket diddling on their laptop ... if they do that for a few months, you become a loser! It's a study. We're not losers, are we?"

 

There is evidence that standing is better for the human body than sitting. For work we have standing desks for computer work and such. Some aim to stand 8+ hours a day.

What about for other activities? How do the unemployed, retired, and homemarkers get in enough standing? Are there good ways to stand while reading a book, or sipping a coffee and enjoying the dawn?

 

On Tuesday, Jan. 2, a federal appeals court declined to rehear the case of Berkeley’s ban on new natural gas hookups, which was struck down by a panel of judges in April 2023.

 

There are a lot of news articles about "back to the office", but they recirculate the same bad ideas. Let's provide some new ideas for the media to circulate. It may also have the effect of making the office less terrible.

I would like my work computer to do Windows updates lightning quick in the office. It currently takes weeks, in or out of the office. Stopping in for a day makes no difference, so there is no point. Now, if there was a point, I would go in.

What would get you in the office?
