I’m in California, but we still (currently) have the same federal bullshit requirements. Doctor friend said I should lie.
Made an appointment, and the pharmacist asked if I was immunocompromised, or XYZ, and I just told them that I qualify—no follow up questions, just a jab in the arm.
To be fair, I do have anxiety that my government is trying to kill me, but that’s just crazy…
I wonder what the effective range is if it’s charging at every stop (obviously depends on tons of factors).
Busses are a neat use case for electric vehicles in this regard.
Though, technically that leaves you more at risk of ransomeware or something that overwrites your data.
I rsync as well, but use snapshotting on the remote drives. So, a bad rsync would suck but shouldn’t really result in data loss. Ransomware on my local+remote server would of course be very bad…
I do something similar — I have a raspberry pi and a HD, with daily rsync and snapshots (monthly retained indefinitely, weekly retained for a month, daily retained for a week). It’s at family’s house, connected to my home via WireGuard via a VPS. Tailscale (or anything really) would also work here.
It’s a great setup! Just have some watchdog reboot if it can’t talk to home (a simple cronjob with ping -c1 home.lan || reboot or similar).
Even our “slow” 35Mbps upload speed is way more than enough for incremental rsyncs of my Immich library. The initial sync was done in person, though.
I got one from goHardDrive on eBay (link). It was cheap enough, looks flawless, and knock on wood has been working fine.
Googling around, the brand gets…mixed reviews. My use case is such that of this drive fails it’s not a big deal.
Pretty obvious fix here — fire the CDC researchers.

poweroff and reboot work as advertised for me, but I’m running headless homelab servers and a laptop with i3. Maybe DEs/GUI shutdown is more subtle?
Yeah, I run i3 and headless servers, so it’s poweroff or reboot for me. Always works as advertised.
Except on the Linux systems I’ve used, when I ask it to shut down, it shuts down no matter what. Windows and macOS let programs stop the shutdown process indefinitely (when shutdown/reboot are invoked the usual way).
I think that’s what the meme is trying to get at.
It’s often not that hard. Many routers have a setting for local dns records.
Right, that’s easy, but IIRC google devices hard code their DNS servers for casting, so you need to intercept traffic bound for 8.8.8.8.
These folks suggest that just blocking the DNS servers allows you to use your own fallback. Haven’t personally tried that, but perhaps more straightforward.
Since casting JF to a Chromecast requires that it be resolvable by Google’s DNS (or at least, it used to be that way I think), here’s a fun trick to get it working: point your public DNS record to your private IP. It’s apparently not always supported by your DNS provider, but it works great for me (namecheap).
No need to expose your JF instance over the Internet this way, and no need for complicated DNS interception stuff with your router.
You may need to have SSL certs for casting, not sure.
I think parent’s comment (no pun intended) is that if you want to, all things being equal, but you don’t solely because of money, then that’s a sad statement about the state of the world, not about you as a person.
You should say no. Easier said than done, I know.
If you have halfway decent insurance (which not everyone does of course) it is not particularly expensive out of pocket. The bill from the hospital is huge though, yes, but it gets picked up with insurance.
A “funny” feature of US healthcare is that it may be cheaper to get pregnant in November-February or so, because then the bulk of the healthcare will take place in one year and you’ll meet any out of pocket max in one year only. Giving birth in January, on the other hand, means you probably meet your out of pocket twice — once for pregnancy, once for birth.
I’d like to congratulate drugs cancer for winning the war on cancer.
tumeric
*Turmeric. If I had a nickel for every time I’ve seen someone forget the first R I’d have like three nickels. Which isn’t a lot, but still kinda interesting.
If you want to try your hand at sourdough pancakes, they’re super simple (and vegan, if you care) — though you need to have an active starter.
Little water, salt, sugar (or banana), neutral oil, starter, baking soda. Add spices (cinnamon , nutmeg, vanilla) if you like. No need to measure anything out, just use your judgement.
Fast, easy, and pretty tasty!
Early Bulletin Said Ammunition in Kirk Shooting Engraved With Transgender, Antifascist Ideology; Some Sources Urge Caution

It sounds like a bulletin was indeed circulated, and it sounds like the WSJ is being pretty candid about the law enforcement response:
Law-Enforcement Officials Sow Confusion on Manhunt for Kirk Shooter / Contradictory public statements risk undermining confidence in investigation, law enforcement veterans say

The WSJ is not going to have first hand access to the evidence, so they have to report (transparently!) what they’re told by credible sources. In this case, it sounds like law enforcement — supposed to be credible — is not. It’s a pretty tricky thing to report on.

Frigate is pretty good, too. I’ve only been running it for a few months but I’m very happy with it.
