Out of all the processed foods we buy just one (vegan sausage by beyond meat) come in a plain cardboard packaging. No plastic. Everything else generates massive plastic waste. There is even fruits and vegetables packaged in blister packages. What in the everloving fuck? We avoid those. Edit...

It is going to continue until one day we get an overt fascist takeover and then it will be too late. Americans seem to have no idea how many other democratic countries have had their democracy and freedoms eroded over the past just 5 years or so. It is a worldwide trend. It wasn't taken...

That they don't know what it all means, the rhetoric, the lies, and the symbols, is such an incredibly transparent lie. And yet....

"People love what I have to say. They believe in it. They just don't like the word Nazi, that's all."

LeAd iS gOoD fOr YoU CiGaRetTeS cLeAn YoUr LuNgS We need 100% free education to reduce numbers of dumb people. There will always be liars lying to them. But we could make it so they don't have a big audience.

I do confuse the Family Guy giant chicken with the Chicken Lawyer on Futurama. All giant cartoon chicken look the same to me.

That's the Indiana Jones scene with the tank Nazi getting hit by a periscope, fistfighting Nazi getting killed by a propeller of a flying wing, or motorcycle Nazi with an umbrella in his spokes. ... Yep. :D

I prefer the usability of the Apple devices for content consumption and I certainly recommend them to non technical friends and family. You sense a 'but' coming already? For productivity no not really. OS X, Linux, or W10 are still king. For me MS Surface, running W10, useful for few...

Did you see the capitol MAGA Crowd?! Half of them are on federal disability.

My wife stopped using amazon. She's ordering direct from manufacturers or (wait for it) from Target! Who knew? I'm still buying on Amazon for largely two reasons: inertia, and do not want to proliferate my personal info to too many online services.

Open source TV OS would be cool. A TV with no OS would be even cooler. Then just HDMI plug a little fanless box running Linux Mint.

Not only would their voters NEVER acknowledge that, there is nothing at all to acknowledge if they don't understand there is a problem, or if they do they have not enough forethought to recognize who caused it.

Someone said as much to the decision makers but was ignored. Or maybe they didn't because they were afraid to speak the truth. Why would I buy anything from Best Buy if they were an online only store? Plenty of tech manufacturers sell direct, and then there's new egg, amazon, microcenter, B&H.

Too many older people do not understand how bad new generations have it. Despite the fact these are their kids or grandkids. WTF??? Minimum wage adjusted for inflation: https://www.cnn.com/interactive/2019/bu ... index.html It looks worse when the metric is equivalent purchasing power, or how...

Here's the thing. DO NOT roll your own file share solution (or web server, or email server, or anything) unless you are an IT engineer and know this stuff inside and out. I'd set up VPN and access files through there. Or use a tried and true http option like Sharepoint with two factor auth...

Yep. Not sure how things are where all of you live, here in WA the mass vaccination sites are outside. The volunteers do not administer the vaccines. Medics do. The volunteers direct traffic and make sure the paperwork is filled out and handed back in. You can safely be 6 feet away from everyone...

PSA: volunteer to work at a mass vaccination site and they will vaccinate you because they have to vaccinate the workers. You can volunteer through the county/state whoever runs the site, or red cross, or reserve medical corp, civil air patrol, volunteer fire... which ever is present at the...

Detected a post critical of a telecom - $5 Recouping lost PR value - $1.37 Taxes - $0.51

That headline is dangerous. 'My grandpa smoked three packs a day and lived to be 90' sort of dangerous.

I just checked a few public web servers. Nothing to do with vCenter but same port 443 so scans would be seen there too. No VMWare scans. Yet! Just usual WP, WP plugins, PHP, POSTs to every single form on the site (SQL code injection) and something new references to SolarWinds paths. Interesting.
