PNW clouds

This is what I want. To be able to put on a hat and sunglasses and have it obscure me.

Oh!!! Or suits like in A Scanner Darkly!!!

Not for nefarious reasons, I’m pretty boring. It’s the principle of the thing.

Yeah, except if he knew everyone that entered the apartment at any time was recorded, it would maybe have been a deterrent.

Her other option could be a hidden nanny cam trained on the door so she’d have proof she wasn’t crazy.

But again the issue isn’t people wanting to know who is outside their door, or entering without their knowledge. The issue is the camera companies keeping all the footage for themselves.

We have an off brand camera aimed at our porch for porch pirates. It’s not going to get someone walking by on the street. We have it only recording to the sdcard.

But we can live view and it alerts through the app. We don’t use the cloud service or AI. But there’s nothing stopping the app from screenshotting alerts and sending them somewhere.

I’m trying to figure out how to have an actual closed system so only computers under my control can access camera(s)

Union scale and exposure if you don’t want to read. The article only hypes up the successful exposure, not the trainwrecks.

It’s not clear It’s a lynching and not the result of a guilty conscience. Evidently hangings in MS are more often suicide instead of murder /s

• at least according to the law enforcement speaking to the local news

I think what will happen is no orders = no crops. They’ll grow something else or nothing else. And that’ll create a scarcity or perception of scarcity.

But maybe I’m wrong and some things will get cheaper, or at least not more expensive.

Ianal, I really hope there is some sort of class action that can be done to force companies to pass that back to consumers.

It should be easy enough to pass through to all the electronic pay methods.

Or force markup items to all be put on massive sale until an equal amount has been sold to make up the sales at markup.

There are no perfect solutions, some people will still make out like bandits.

But jfc, just releasing billions to these companies will only benefit the C-Level and maybe some shareholders, the people already benefiting, not the ones feeling the pain.

Probably meant anorexia from not being able to eat. It’s not really the same thing, but not eating is not eating.

Was she actually qualified for the job? Since she was appointed a month ago, I assumed she was a Project 2025 hire

I only know Shinjuku from anime/manga. When a certain arc gets animated, I expect it’ll be wild for a while. If the hype stays strong anyway.

There’s a movie called Shallow Grave. Ewan McGregor’s character is on the phone at work at a newspaper. We hear his side of the conversation:

Was there a pet in the house? Yeah, a pet. You know, like a dog or a budgie or a gerbil or something? What I need here is “PC Plod saves Harry the Hamster from house of horror”. All right. Well, that’s a pity. You see, no pets - no human angle.

This line has lived rent free in my head for almost 30 years. “All right. Well, that’s a pity. You see, no pets - no human angle.”

While I love manga and the artwork… I read and comprehend words much, much faster. For a massive opus like One Piece, I would love a novel version of the manga that I could dig into, with the novel and manga chapters lining up or notated, so I could go back and read chapters of the manga and enjoy the artwork for especially key or poignant scenes. Then I could start just consuming the manga and anime in real time… Right now it’s just too daunting to start. I’ve seen the first season of live action and anime. I’m very interested, I just can’t justify the time commitment.

I think this depends entirely on the subject.

I was in a STEM degree and I learned a lot of technical skills. (Super early internet, no YouTube) In the extra classes like marketing, English Lit, I basically learned how to deal with people because of the professors like you describe, group projects, and trying to see the perspectives that didn’t make sense to be initially so I could pass the damn class.

It seemed incredibly stupid at times, but making you think in ways that challenge you in ways you hate and think are stupid is actually excellent training for dealing with the myriad of brain-breaking people on this planet.

High School did this too, but less in your interest. High School was “shut up and do it this way, because that’s how it’s done.” This benefits the Institution.

College was “sure, argue, but here’s why you’re wrong, or if not wrong, you need to be able to see this differing perspective, understand, and navigate it. The world is fucked, there is so much that is morally gray, that you need to learn flexibility. Show me you understand by explaining back to me what I’m teaching you. Don’t just entrench your whole being in what you’ve been taught before coming here.”

Not the person you asked, but it’s commonly taught as science in a lot of Christian themed curriculums, including a lot of homeschool programs. Source: friends who believed it, and seeing the homeschool program of my step-kids. We had to teach facts on the side and introduce them age appropriately to real science.

“It” being Creationism.
Here’s something fun to learn more: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Creation_Museum

Was looking for this.

Virgina worked at MAL at age 17 before Maxwell scouted her to “work” for Jeff. Maybe that’s what’s he’s talking about. Jeff stole a perfectly good underage worker handing out towels.

From scratch? I’m looking into some miso paste, so I can make my own miso soup

I can taste some of them, especially red and blue artificial food dyes. I’d love to see them replaced because I look like a weirdo eating around the m&ms I don’t like.

I watched a couple interviews with Michael Wolff on youtube. He said Epstein tried to hire him to write his biography and showed him photos of DJT with young looking women that could have been underage teenagers. (Or just young looking, he didn’t know) He also said he tried to take the story to journalists/news orgs multiple times over the years, but none of them would touch it. Until now. So yeah, people tried, like Katie Johnson, and the stories got squashed. Or like the Access Hollywood tape, it was widely reported and he still won the election in 2016. Teflon don, indeed.
