For sure. Full service is a must at prices like that

Might wanna access that site with tor.

Their quality decreased as they found more and more ways to cut costs while producing something that appears to be the same. It started with McDonald's, then burger king, now finally Wendy's. All of them reduced quality and increased prices. 5 guys kept the quality the same, but it costs about $25 per person. At that rate, I can buy my own grill and fryer and do it my own damn self for cheaper.

I wonder how the place that sold me the license for Windows 11 Pro for $6 did it. It still works for some reason.

Guilds that act as intermediaries?

immigration agents in an unmarked vehicle swept up her husband’s 20-year-old nephew, who is a Mexican national without legal status.
They misspelled kidnapped.

Sorry friend.

The best recommendation I can give you is to actually use a bike. A bike will get you out of a situation quickly, it can be used as a shield in an emergency to put something between you and an aggressor, and it has several other uses as well that make it strategically good and improve your safety odds. Incidentally you will probably also be wearing a helmet which is also good for safety. Keep these things in mind and choose wisely.

Fair. I should really quit using autocomplete and stop using Gboard for privacy reasons. Honestly, I'm just a little bit away from de-googling and going graphene. Just gotta spin up immich and a few other servers.

"institutional violence"... An interesting misspelling of "collective punishment"
I saw one video of a dude whipping a water bottle at a cop. Bottle chucker got immediately tackled by another protestor.

There but for the grace of the gods go we.

For som reason, "ywars" changed your voice into that of a pirate, and it made me cackle. Thanks 💛

Also dangerous.

"every safety regulation is written in blood" and I'd add, it's often the blood of the poor or working class.

So I thought it couldn't possibly be that bad! So I looked it up on Amazon. Guys, it's way worse than that bad. $60 for a goddamn cable! It supports everything though... https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-107022-Computer-Cables/dp/B084Z65YJQ

You could drill it out and replace it with a nut/screw and bolt....

Thank you.

Waiting in clinic to see if I can be done with this 45d cough and sinus issues.
Hope springs.
Feeling greatful for your posting about "the message" a few weeks back.
They book made me look at apartheid differently, but surprisingly, also parenting. I'm now a Ta Nehasi (sp?) Coates fan. He seems like a good guy.

Finally finished this. Thanks for turning me on to it! 💛

Leak confirms OpenAI's ChatGPT will integrate MCP
An interesting development, but I doubt it'll be a good thing, especially at first. This looks like the kind of thing that will be an entirely new threat vector and a huge liability, even when used in the most secure way possible, but especially when used in a haphazard way that we'll certainly see from some of the early adoptors.
Just because you can do a thing, does not mean that you should.
I almost feel like this should have an NSFW tag because this will almost certainly not be safe for work.
Edit: looks like the article preview is failing to load... I'll try to fix it. ... Nope. Couldn't fix.

America has deep problems, which is why we can’t give up. Protect the vulnerable, organize boycotts and keep fighting

Please share this. The action begins.


In revoking Executive Order 11246, Trump took aim at history and efforts to combat discrimination. Also: Trump's effort to end birthright citizenship is blocked for now.

I don't really have words for this...


The farms will "reparent" them.

Sounds like reeducation to me.
Apologies if this is a repost. I feel like people need to see this.

4B in the US anyone?


I feel like this is probably pretty effective. I feel like it should be a thing.

New Vatican document lists ‘grave violations’ of human dignity

This transphobic, anti-gender theory, anti-abortion doctrine of theirs has me completely done with them.
I'm not a rageaholic, but you wouldn't know it when I heard this story come on my news feed. Profanities that came out of me were full-throated, long-winded, and unbecoming.
I was raised Catholic and for a long time since they decided to bless same-sex marriages I was okay with the Catholic Church but what do you know? Just like that. Now I'm anti-Catholic.
They're basically saying that everyone is made perfect in God's image and that by changing your sex your violating that perfection and somehow violating your own dignity? Like, they're trying to say that changing your gender is separating yourself from your soul somehow? I'm done with these people.
Here is a link to the actual document that they produced. Would you believe it took him 5 years to come up with thi

Trump's Plans If He Returns To The White House Include Deportation Raids, Tariffs And Mass Firings
So it looks like Trump has read the fascist playbook or something. I'm not surprised. I am concerned.
Edit: After thinking about it, I guess I am surprised that he can read.

Google adds tracking to Google docs documents?
Today I found out that google docs infects html exports with spyware, no scripts, but links in your document are replaced with invisible google tracking redirects. I was using their software because a friend wanted me to work with him on a google doc, he is a pretty big fan of their software, but we...
Title says it all. Somewhat interesting if true. I wouldn't be surprised either way.

China Accuses US of Hacking Huawei Servers as Far Back as 2009


China accused the US of infiltrating Huawei Technologies Co. servers beginning in 2009, part of a broad-based effort to steal data that culminated in tens of thousands of cyber-attacks against Chinese targets last year.
The Tailored Access Operations unit of the National Security Agency carried out the attacks in 2009, which then continuously monitored the servers, China’s Ministry of State Security said in a post on its official WeChat account on Wednesday. It didn’t provide details of attacks since 2009.
Cyberattacks are a point of tension between Washington and Beijing, which has accused its political rival of orchestrating attacks against Chinese targets ever since Edward Snowden made explosive allegations about US spying. Washington and cybersecurity researchers have said the Asian country has sponsored attacks against the West.
The ministry’s accusations emerged as the two countries battle for technological supremacy. Huawei in particular has spurred alarm in Washington since

What's the deal with all these archive.is links? All they do is send me to infinite capcha loops. I don't get it.

Is the destruction of Twitter and Reddit a conspiracy or am I just paranoid?
I've had this feeling that since there are forces that do not want us to have free speech, and that the destruction of Reddit and Twitter does this effectively, creating a chilling effect, destroying social links and communities. Might it not be an intentional effort to stifle the ability of the downtrodden to organize and fight the power?
There are so many other ways things are engineered to benefit the minority and prevent the majority from gaining power, why not this too?
Just a thought rattling around in my head.

This little propaganda piece from Business Insider really shows how the rich think.

David Ravitz is selling his South Florida home just two years after buying it to reap the gains from a renovation and regional price increases.

In this recent Business Insider article, millennial real estate agent David Ravitz presented his case against long-term homeownership. It's crucial, though, to critically examine the underlying messages and implications of this piece. In what may seem like an innocuous lifestyle feature on the surface, Business Insider has, perhaps unwittingly, amplified the voice of the wealthy, casting a shadow over the economic realities faced by the average American.
Ravitz’s story is not your usual rags-to-riches tale. The Boca Raton-based agent is advocating for a model where one simply purchases a $960,000 home, renovates it for an additional $500,000, and then flips it on the market for an exorbitant profit. Although it may seem like a savvy investment strategy, it's not one that an average American can afford to take up. It is an insight into the mindset of a certain privileged class and how it perceives the path to wealth.
By giving this narrative a platform, Business Insider seems to be op


Let's take a look at what the IPCC and official data really say

This article/blog concerns me for a number of reasons.
- First, if the right sees this, they're just going to use this as a talking point to disprove global warming.
- Second, it illustrates that the media is playing us, yet again, to serve it's own intre$ts, and that's disheartening.
- Finally, people (in general) are unable to process nuance and will not understand that there's definitely worse to come and that we're unprepared for the heat waves that we have now, which I believe the author shows are not as relatively severe as they were in the 30s and will be more severe in the coming years with the impacts of global warming.
I think maybe I need to read my news rss feed less.
