I’ve been working from home for 10 years. The COVID break my daughter had was the first time I can remember NOT getting a Cold since literally ever. I’m masking more when I travel for work and I look forward to when more of us realize the benefits.

Did nobody tell these assholes the absolutely #1 rule? You DO NOT fuck with American ships… Keep this shit up, and things are going to get real “proportional” around here…

We’re on the same page re: mental healthcare. I was trying to convey I’m glad the stigma around it less and less with each generation, but we still have a ways to go.

You’re right, and you’re going to get downvoted for it. We have an inequality problem masking as a gun problem. We have a mental health crisis masking as gun problem.

Possible solutions to these situations aren’t fast and they don’t stir up emotions enough to get people to vote for you. Riling people up and telling them you can fix their problems fast gets votes; saying we have work to do doesn’t.

The stigma against mental healthcare won’t be gone in my child’s generation, but I am happy to see it is being accepted more than it was for mine. Of course, not thinking poorly of people for taking care of themselves doesn’t matter if people can’t afford to…

I’m extra shocked to see this in NJ; it is one of only two states where you are not allowed to pump your own gas. Efforts to change pump laws have been massively unfavorable because, among other things, they create jobs.

My answer won’t be as popular, but it’ll definitely get the attention of the right people on the customer’s side: charge HANDSOMELY for issues caused due to customers using the systems outside of agreemed to or published best practices.

Is this before or after the war started?

The length of the 2nd Amendment is insanely short and likely thought to be quite obvious to the authors. Ironically, it has likely been more debated than any other Amendment. There have even been court cases that focus on how the placement of commas impacts the meaning.

To your comment on “well regulated,” the debate there has to do with how the phase has changed meaning over time; well regulated meant “well maintained” or “taken care of.” A well regulated clock, for instance, would have its gears cleaned and oiled at regular intervals.

Even in the groups that still hold that interpretation debate on whether the phrase then mean well-drilled/disciplined or well-stocked with arms.

With regard to at-home kits, the general rule/understanding was you could build your own with your own tools and any materials that were only 80% or less manufactured/machined to being a completed firearm.

The debate kinda went like this: “Is a block of metal a gun?”
“Well, no…”
“So… How much work am I allowed to do to this block of metal before I get in trouble for selling it to somebody else?”
“Ionno… A lot, I guess? 80% sound good?”

So, people started selling 80% kits within the bounds of the law. They were blocks of material mostly milled with instructions, and sometimes tools, to finish the job.

The article doesn’t explain why these kits in question are getting blocked. I’m suspecting too many things were sold at once as part of the kit, though. 80% kits normally don’t have barrels, for instance.

Oh boy, let me tell you about the Presidential power that I’m most scared of: the President has 90 days to get Congressional approval for war. The idea being it used to take a long time to get people together to vote on things and even longer to mobilize. These days, though, you can conquer a country in under 90 days…

Provoked Gamer is pretty baller. Are you asking for a friend?

Up-state NY is more rural and conservative. Towns in the mountains can be fairly small and isolated; those areas vote extremely red.

Unless I’m misunderstanding how this whole thing works, it’d depend on the instance and community, wouldn’t it? If I set up my own instance, I can setup my own rules for the communities that might start there. Those community leaders may opt to set rules stricter than the instance rules.

If you go crazy enough, you get defederated like North Korea…

My guess is they’ve been advised by lawyers not to share the video. They’re probably preparing for defending themselves from a wrongful death suit.

I don’t care about what a Trump re-election will do to the world. The civil war that happens after the fact will make it impossible for us to hear global news for years, anyway.

Put myself through college serving at a fine dining restaurant. This show did it’s research on kitchen/restaurant culture. Seriously takes me back.

Fair take.

I’ve got a static IP for Truenas now with an internal DNS entry pointing directly to it for smb and another DNS entry pointing to Traefik for the web UI. Annoying to have 2 names for it and was hoping to not have to, but this may be where/how things stay.

Not all. This is all internal. I got annoyed with with insecure warnings for all the internal stuff that runs on SSL and fell down the Traefik rabbit hole after watching TechnoTim’s video on the topic.

I’m not sure that’s right, in the routers section of the Traefik docs they say…

UDP routers can only target UDP services (and not HTTP or TCP services).

Feels possible, just not widely documented. I could be completely wrong, though.
