okay, apparently the homemade stuff isn’t fortified with calcium & iron (which plain homemade oat milk wouldn’t have) - so you’d have to make that up with other parts of your diet - so Chia, cheese, yogurt (yes, I sense the irony), kale/collards (spinach has stuff that make the calcium harder to absorb), rhubarb, tofu - as far as iron… beans, spinach (for the iron), pumpkin, quinoa

States can get their hands on things for criminal investigations. Or they can get that data in the infectious disease database but usually that’s carefully anonymized into general steps of ten… But this… This is some messed up shit

Gotta get those high quality gains to lift more than the McVeigh’s

You can do it. I use a powered USB hub and a raspberry pi, and 5 hard drives.

It is a mess of cables but was simple enough.

I also sprang for a UPS because most filesystem’s I tried like zfs and btrfs didn’t appreciate random brownouts from running 4 drives off the pi itself.

Right now they’re xfs and used for a minio install and torrent storage

people get grumpy about containers vs nix vs flatpak and I just wanna say… I’m glad you’re using Linux. yes, you.

The lemmy devs would probably take something sensible like that and flat out shoot it down because they think they know better.

getting accidentally hired and finally making enough.

story: every job I’ve ever applied for in tech didn’t work out. I was a dishwasher until right before covid when someone recommended me for a cybersecurity position. Before that I had obsessed about FIRE or living in a car or being careful about too much starbucks or avocado toast… without making enough for a car or health insurance. That job paid ~half of what cybersecurity should pay, but was AMAZING. My next job paid just a hair under average, three years later. night and day, able to afford to exist without help.

financial advice be damned. I couldn’t “find” anywhere with lower rent. I was in the lowest cost of living possible regionally. What needed to change was the PRIMARY job’s income rate, not adding some side hustle. Either make rent cheaper or find a higher wage.

I’m not making enough to consider your next fancy moves like getting a house.

Not so much defending as offense…

I’m inclined to believe the local PD knows the addresses of officials… So they let this happen on purpose.

Who you pardon is symbolic for how your law enforcement should behave

For example, trump claiming he would pardon specific people or groups

The opposite is true, by saying what you’ll crack down on (or stop)

Principle

If you say you’re against punching people in the face you can’t punch someone to stop them

I guess, who knows

I wonder what this arrest tells about the average stupidity and hubris of the population, given sampling bias of “people who got caught” and “people who were newsworthy” as factors before “people who should have kept their mouths shut”

That’s an awful number of people without shelter.

Higher up the food chain, needs more food

You can elect multiple reps, the quota threshold is just different

Importantly you do need the multi member districts to get the full benefit of these kinds of voting systems and prevent duvergers law

Sooooorta

You’d expect them to double check it with multiple sources

Not just take another country’s Intelligence at face value

“Especially the Dutch” - Nigel Powers, Austin Powers, goldmember

… That’s what I just said. Are you a bot?

Writing to your representative is a form of lobbying

An unsolicited expert opinion is lobbying

What’s messed up is the amount of money to run and that citizens united made unlimited funds possible

Congressmen always worried about the cash they’ll need to get elected

If there were term limits we would have faceless corporate buyouts with little experience, vs someone running on name recognition

Heck I want a campaign finance max limit.

Came here to say this. Let them toggle the logs or the QR code.

“Housing first” is the idea that most of life falling apart is from losing your most basic need: shelter.

It’s stressful to keep a job, distancing from friends and dates and family, if you don’t have a home and smell weird

Instead, when we give people homes without conditions, they can breath a sigh of relief, and have enough spoons to tackle the rest of the problems.

As pointed out, or as might need to be pointed out, nobody builds something this expensive without considering the auxiliary social services to help people get out of the situation for the next occupant.

It’s the most cost effective thing you can do, anything else is cruel, bureaucratic, and inefficient.

If you already have a job and relationships and suddenly end up unhoused, the community letting that spiral to your job firing you is a failing of the whole town. It doesn’t have to, all we need is to fill those empty homes…
