Potato bugs are Jerusalem crickets no?

The lenses of your eyes already perceive the whole world upside down, your brain just flips it. If you wear glasses that invert it after a few days your brain will stop the flipping (and then if you take them off it’ll take a few days to re-flip).

I use this one for comm a lot. E.g.,

comm -12 <(sort some_file) <(grep foo some_other_file | sort)

1985 here. All but the first one. But my coping mechanisms are way healthier now than a decade or two ago so progress!

Where? Just searched online, anywhere near me (Berkeley, California) the only steak I can find under 15 is tri tip. Any actual “first rate steak” is closer to $50-$80 for 3-5 of them (and it’s not actually first rate, but say on the nicer side that a grocery store butcher would have). Then add the cost of gas to cook it, water and gas to clean up, some condiments or spices, and I don’t see how I could get under ~$20 per steak at home.

Same here. Sonic fiber and I’ve had 0 issues. Pay less now than I did for much much slower cable internet before and I think we’ve had 1 maintenance and 1 outage in the last 4 years. Just checked speed test on my modem and it 941 down 942 up.

Feed me a stray cat

I don’t think they are coming back for those of us who wore them originally but my 16 year old and lots of his friends freaking love them.

Not that people lie on the internet for attention, but any proof of this?

How old are you, if you don’t mind me asking? I’m 40, started paying attention to politics in the Clinton years and then really paying attention with Bush v Gore in 2000. America was full on neolib vs neocon bullshit back then, a quarter of a century ago. The 2nd Iraq War was a big moment for me of realizing that the only thing America stands for is corporate hegemony. Project 25 is no different than the Project for a New American Century, and the “opposition” from the “left” isn’t fundamentally against any of it, they just pay a bit more lip service to culture issues (which are of course important if you aren’t a cis white christian male, but they are clearly not enough).

Tl;dr

Colon, Michigan: “Am I a joke to you?”

North America isn’t a monolith. My (very large metro California) county has already passed legislation phasing out all natural gas in new construction, and will gradually start prohibiting sale of gas water heaters and furnaces over the next few years.

I got excited thinking there was DS9 content i hadn’t seen

I’m not a Jain so take this with a grain of salt. Their philosophy of nonviolence believes in two sets of rules - one for ascetics and one for “householders”. The former renounce everything in service of nonviolence (they often wear masks to prevent breathing in any organisms, carry canes that they use to tap the ground when they walk, etc). The latter have more “reasonable” restrictions (but are still pure vegetarians, etc). So maybe for the former group?

Quality/purity of fentanyl in Norcal has gone way down recently apparently. https://sfstandard.com/2024/08/12/fentanyl-soap-purity/ at least here I’m sure that is a major contributing factor

There are varieties of Jainism that won’t pluck fruits (will only eat what has naturally fallen) and many mainstream varieties of Jainism that won’t eat any root vegetables (because digging them up would harm insects), or seeded vegetables (eating it harms the plants ability to reproduce).

Live music archive is still down for example 😞

Number 1 that’s black beans. Number 2 the punchline is “i dunno but I’ve never paid $20 to have a garbanzo bean on my face”. Number 3 I won’t allow my go to joke to be stolen by these fascist goons!

What’s wrong with the tongue test for 9 volts? I know it tickles some but is it actually harmful? I’ve been doing that for over 30 years…
