They neglected to include a M2 slot for a SSD. If they add it to a future release, I’ll have to get one. Could finally have my own Shadowrun rigger deck!

My concern is more the host of ghouls following him in with a plan this time around. They’ll destroy our institutions and feast on the corpses to fatten themselves even more. The damage George W Bush did to government organizations by outsourcing to private industry will seem like small potatoes.

So it’s like kicking the tires on a car, but with a college degree.

They surely won’t have to endure the increased harassment from cops and border patrol agents, right? Once Trump green-lights vigorous racial profiling, that’ll only affect other people…

Trick, no treat.

My wife’s RAV4 is like this. Long drives are torture after a few hours. My neck, shoulders, and back end up in knots.

Coptering a feel

I had an older lady call me to ask why I had been calling her phone. Had to explain that scammers were faking caller ID numbers, it wasn’t me, and everyone was dealing with the same garbage phone calls. She was initially ready to chew me out, but deflated pretty quickly when she realized her vexation would have to be vented toward someone else.

I’m running Newpipe through Proton VPN, working as of today.

A person’s eyes are a window into their soul.

Our international partners began moderating the intelligence they would share while Trump was in office. They couldn’t trust him to not blab about state secrets during dinner parties just to try to impress people with how smart and important he was.

It has been popular. People were traveling out of country for joint replacements. Costs were less for travel, surgery, and recovery than what they would pay for it here. Covid put a damper on travel for a couple years, so not sure if it’s still as popular. I would consider it if/when I need knee replacements done. Considering what I’ve heard about the quality issues of joint replacements in the US, I don’t want one here.

There really should be better options, but it’s where this country is currently at, where some home chemistry is something people would have to consider. You’re right, it’s dangerous and certainly has a lot of risks. With some background in it myself and access to resources that the general public doesn’t have, I would still be hesitant to try something I’d cooked up in the basement at home. But, I’m also not at the point where I’m going to die from a treatable but unaffordable disease.

I’m a quality chemist. I test the API’s that process chemists make to be sure they’re right. Yeah, reactions don’t always proceed as intended. These guys do understand the risks, and are only trying to provide an option. Here in the US the insurance companies are perfectly willing to let us die because funding expensive treatment hurts their bottom line. Unless you’re independently wealthy, a small scale reactor at home may become the only option a person has available. Definitely risky, but why not take the chance when corporate America has determined you’re not valuable enough to save?

Congratulations! May the two of you be very happy.

Scepter televisions are a great option, no “smart” features at all. Bought two of them about 6 years ago and no issues.
