Why is United still allowed to exist?

They basically rebuilt their home and are sad it's appraised at market value.

That's at least what I got from it.

Happened in the last few days. I logged out and back in but that didn't help.

Don't think I'm banned, I was able to make a post on my browser and haven't had any mail saying as such

Absolutely fucking insane

It is truly staggering the extent of the destruction we caused on the natives to this land.

Wiki says 96% of them were killed. That's something like 3.6 million humans were slaughtered.

And most all of their land taken.

It's an injustice in this country that we don't learn about it more and try to atone as best we can.

Is there a way to only show English posts when in All? I love our friends around the world but I can only read English right now

What does your contract say? With this back to work bullshit I made sure my contract explicitly said I was remote.

Doesn't mean they won't change their mind but maybe I'll get severance instead of fired for cause of they have a back to the office push.

When is her tour over?

Edit:

It commenced on March 17, 2023, in Glendale, Arizona, and is set to conclude on December 8, 2024, in Vancouver, consisting of 149 shows that span five continents.

Welp, either she changes her mind or it'll be too late to do anything.

I didn't get how bad we really are until Obama was elected. It broke people's brains. In hindsight I am still amazed we had a black president.

It is so bad 🤣.

These books are how the GOP launders money right? Is that why she refuses to retract it?

Clever for the example to be lowering prices when we know they are going to use this to squeeze us.
Is there a path forward that doesn't involve a class war?

I thought it was pretty well known that the Nazi party destroyed the first thing we would consider a Trans hospital?

She should have done a tiny bit of googling.

Third result on Google was the right wiki page https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Institut_f%C3%BCr_Sexualwissenschaft

I live in LA and this seems wild. Isn't the free market supposed to handle this? If you didn't save enough money to handle a year of low crick bugs then shouldn't you fail and daddy capitalism will let someone else take its place?

/s of course.

This is why UBI might be a good idea, at least the workers and even C levels could still pay rent and not have to give unchecked funds to industry.

I am starting to detangle myself from Google and one of the services I use is YouTube.

I learned that piped exists the other day but that is just a front end for Google.

Is there a tool that I can host on my server that will let me give it YouTube links, that will then download/stream to my server and then server to my phone or computer?

I guess I am looking for a tool that will cache my YouTube videos locally and even download my subscriptions when they upload new stuff.

I'm not sure what this buys me that Piped does not, except that I am backing up videos in case they are removed.

I am working on building a new server in my apartment that will have a reasonably beefy GPU and CPU so I can get PCIE pass-through working and get a gaming VM set up.

Trouble is, my apartment is in the attic in the south. With the AC on I had one or two really bad days last year that it got up to 90 degrees Fahrenheit inside with high humidity.

Any cooling suggestions for something like that? Is 90 degrees Fahrenheit still cool enough to reduce the temperature of my components? I would really like to avoid buying a phase change cooler, but that is the only thing I can think of if the ambient is too high.

I have been out of the Piracy game for almost a decade so im starting over.

Anyone know of good resources for "old" American TV shows? Late 90's to mid 2000's.

None for the sites I tried in the mega thread had anything.

I got a medical card here in LA and the prices are outrageous. Getting a dablicator with full spectrum oil seems to be the most cost effective. Trouble is I can't seem to figure out how to use it.

At first I just ate it but I think I wasted $90 because I felt nothing and I don't think it was decarbed.

Next I got some refillable 510 thread vapes and a small syringe to fill it. That has been a pain but it at least works a bit.

How am I supposed to use this stuff? Is it all the same or are there different kinds? Is it decarbed at all or not meant for vaping?

Wow, that title.
Way to make it sound like a bad thing and not more art becomes public.

Do better NYT.

Is there a way I can track how much filament is left on a roll?
Either an add-on sensor I can build or software that will track how much is used vs how much is supposed to be on the roll?

Have a Prusa Mk4 and it's working ok so far but been having trouble with very long prints so trying to figure out if my rolls have enough left

I feel like that is more or less to be expected. A ton of people found Lemmy during the reddit protests. Now that the protests are gone and Lemmy has had its growing pains some users are leaving, going back to reddit or other places. If we keep using it and making content users will grow organically.

Lemmy is having an identity crisis of sorts. It was built to be decentralized yet we (users) seem to want to centralize everything and we all go to a few of the largest instances.

Going to Oregon to meet some friends for a few days. They don't smoke at all but are curious and willing to imbibe a bit. I have previously gotten them edibles (Federally Legal Delta 9) but want to introduce them to some smoking as well if they are interested. I also want to get a little fucked up in a legal state.

What should I be looking for at the dispensary? I dry herb vape my black market flower down here, but I am not gonna try to get my vape through TSA.

Should I try to buy a cheap bong up there? Never used one, but I hate joints, they make my lungs burn and I cough more than I inhale.

Should I just stick with edibles? I also kind of want to try RSO but not sure I want to get THAT fucked up. I enjoy doing high doses by myself but I won't have an opportunity to be alone on this trip.

I am a grumpy old man that is/was pissed that we aren't getting a "real" Baldurs Gate 3, but as it gets close to release I am sadly getting excited about it.

Has anyone played Early Access on the Steam Deck? Is it fun/playable on there? I do nearly 100% of my gaming on that now and barely touch my dedicated gaming Ubuntu machine these days.

I am rewriting my ancient vim config into Lua with nvim. I am using Mason to grab lsp language servers and for the most part it works great!

I have this in my remaps so I can <leader>f to format the current file (still need to figure out formatting on save too, but I can't for the life of me get Markdown formatting working.

vim.keymap.set("n", "<leader>f", function()
	vim.lsp.buf.format()
end)

I have markdownlint, marksman, prettier, and prettierd all installed wth Mason (though I haven't written any keymaps or configs for them). Any idea how I can format my Markdown? I write in it all day every day so it's gonna help a ton if I can get it working. Secondly any ideas how I can do the same mapping for the formatting on save? Still pretty new to Lua.
