People from the "hotter" regions, how do you deal with the heat?
  • AZ here, Get a cheap low power desktop for work shit, it will heat up less and you'll be able to ventilate it better.

    Otherwise, a/c, thermal curtains, insulated reflector layer in front of that, make sure your weather seals on your doors are good. Drink water all the time, carry water with you all the time. Good luck with all the heatwaves and welcome to the club.

    [HN] Global heat in ‘uncharted territory’: 2023 could be the hottest year on record
  • Most years are going to be the hottest year in record from now on. There will be some off years but they won't be enough to cut even. The trend is up from now until we do something different.

  • I'm not going to hate for doing the more immediate things to protect your kids, but it's extremely unlikely the police are the differentiating factor here.

    What from reddit do you hope to never see on lemmy?
  • Political compass meme was a breeding ground for fascists. Who would have thought a sub about reductionist political thought would attract bad actors.

  • That's not really the same issue. Also, policing isn't going to fix that or it already would have. The states is the most over policed "democracy"on the planet. Common sense domestic gun policies, actual social security structures meant to help citizens, reverse the gutting of federal civil services like education, any I've one of these would help more than any amount of police and all of them are generally what most other democratic countries have. Dumping more money on unqualified overpaid ass sitters hoping for riot overtime for a new seadoo is how we got here.

  • AMENDMENT XIII

    Section 1. Neither slavery nor involuntary servitude, except as a punishment for crime whereof the party shall have been duly convicted, shall exist within the United States, or any place subject to their jurisdiction.

    Section 2. Congress shall have power to enforce this article by appropriate legislation.

    If you're convicted in the US you become a slave in waiting. Ever wonder why reds Love superfluous policing of certain communities and broken window policing? Because it's a direct pipeline to private prisons profit from legal slaves.
