I didn’t love them forever ago, but I rather like their new single “The Emptiness Machine”. I don’t follow music so I didn’t know they had lost their lead singer until yesterday. I heard the song and thought, “Linkin Park doesn’t have a woman for a lead singer….”

That’s why you can’t just use the version as a string. You need to use the API which correctly uses string length as a tie breaker.

Do you use straw for mulch on top, or is it a straw bale setup?

I think there is some thought going on about what it means as a society to discriminate against people with disabilities during immigration.

It seems like the US would have a similar problem with people moving between states that had medicaid expansion and ones that do not. I don’t know if there are any studies on the issue.

Discriminating during immigration based on a congenital disability feels like discriminating based on race to me.

Depending on the site, you can use one device to login to another without installing additional software. For instance, if you have an iPhone with a passkey for microsoft.com stored on it, you can login to Microsoft.com using the iPhone.

Here is a webpage that has some screenshots to show you what I mean. You can probably google some other examples.

It is possible to sync passkeys across devices but at this point is mainly within a single ecosystem.

I wasn’t disputing your point—just throwing in a little extra info since I literally had that table open in a different tab (it’s April in America). I honestly doubt changing those rates would impact things much though. I think we need an asset tax (like the one that exists in most states for houses and that we call property tax) that impacts stocks. Probably a massive change in estate taxes too.

Plus state/local taxes on top of that.

I tried many times including multiple times a few years ago (after they put up the big outside area). Still disappointing, sadly.

Yeah. I still buy a lot of their products especially the Artisan Flours. Such great products.

Honestly, the retail shop and restaurant really went downhill shortly after that happened. My family used to eat there weekly. Breakfasts were excellent and nicely priced. Over the next couple years we just stopped.

Now I just miss that vegetarian sausage omelette with those cheesy grits.

I don’t know why those things seemed to coincide but the handover was in the local news a lot and shortly thereafter it just seemed to begin its decline.

That sounds very slick. I never really used twitter so had no reason to use mastodon instead, but I am glad it exists!

If you migrate your own account to a new server, do other people follows of you automatically migrate too? Or do all your followers need to then update to follow you at the new location?

This is a very nice piece that had so much information I did not know. Toward the top of the article I was wishing for footnotes, references or something that would indicate it was not just your opinion, but as I got further into the piece you provided so many great references. I thought the calculator manuals were particularly accessible and convincing. Thanks for a great read!

The city I live in has two big box stores. One has a retired plumber in the plumbing section. I’ll drive further to go to that one and wait patiently for his advice.

The first PC I owned was a 486 with 8MB of RAM which no one else had. I remember I could make a RAM drive and copy the entire install of games into the RAM drive and they would be so fast. Imagine being able to cache 3 floppy disks worth of data!

Lording it over us poor Vic-20 users :( I remember wishing I could have that computer. I ended up with a commodore 64 soon after.

I’m old enough to remember that my swap drives used to be on spinning drives that were slower than my gigabit fiber. Well, I’m actually older than that but still. If I really needed to run some unoptimized task that required a lot of memory I could consider trying it and walking away.

Does anyone have a guess on the translation of “Caution Now” (the restaurant)?

I’m enjoying the show a fair amount

Honestly my google auto-type keyboard suggests that any time I post.
