PShaw, that's how I had to do it. Slackware on floppy. Pre-internet search engine, one computer per household. No cellular data.
windows -> Dial up -> look at some docs, take nodes -> reboot into Slackware -> mess with the console -> get stuck -> reboot into windows -> repeat
One doesn't need to panic buy items that they keep in stock at sufficient levels. :)
Context for the masses...
”Strabismus (crossed eyes) is a common eye condition among children. It is when the eyes are not lined up properly and they point in different directions (misaligned). One eye may look straight ahead while the other eye turns in, out, up, or down."
cat: You know what makes you feel better? feeding me! that ALWAYS cheers you up!
As I said, not for cost saving, but more for not needing to go out when people start panicking, or being stupid
The search term to find it is autologon, but as everyone has mentioned, this is a last resort and JF should just be run as a service.
Hells yeah, trying not to programmatically block things so I don't miss something that's actually important, but you can't doom scroll this @#$%
Food, but not primarily for cost savings as most regular used things things don't last longer than a year, which cost wise won't bridge the gap.
55 lbs of 00 flour in the chest freezer, still have about 25lbs of AP flour in there. 1 30lb bag of Jasmine Rice, 1 25 lb basmati. I still have a ton of beans and and dry pasts in mylar/oxy absorb sitting in barens cans for long term storage. When covid started, I had 1 million calories in storage. I don't plan to go back to that, but I intend to be able to hunker down for a long time.
For work, I'm pushing to purchase more laptops before tariffs.
I've considered stowing fuel with a stabilizer but even if prices double on fuel, I don't use enough of it to make a difference.
It would be a good time to buy any lithium ion batteries and finish off those ali-express/temu orders.
Honestly, it had more validity behind it in the '80s. When you were just starting out your career you didn't have a house yet you didn't have any wealth amassed, The ideals of the left really shown through. But once you got older and started having some money, the fiscal Republican ticket sold you on tax cuts and provided boosts to help certain investment opportunities. It was still mostly just bullshit to make themselves rich but there was some financial opportunity there. It's pretty much long gone for middle-class advantage anymore though.
GDI Walz, it's ok to be out of touch and confused, but keep the fucking quiet part quiet. Figure it out and fix it, reboot the DNC to the left and give us something compelling. I voted, but more as a sense of duty than actual being hopeful for the future.
Not so much found out about but songs that didn't used to bother me now kind of bother me. I was a very big Stone Temple Pilots fan, Even though the rhythms slap the songs are a little too rapey these days for my taste.
We lost because of a lack of blue votes but what, 40% of the US basically voted to have them as property?
courts of law.
There are always courts of law! Just somtimes it's the king in his court making up the law...
No, what you stated is why red voted red. This race wasn't lost because red voted red. This race was lost because blue didn't vote. The numbers are very clear it's a little more red than there was last time but there was a lot less blue
Honestly I think the hardest part is identifying it and locating it.
Probably need to start a community around it. People link to stuff. Pay walls would have to be dealt with. In the vast majority of cases that's not too difficult. No it does start getting less available around video sources. IP restrictions will be a pain in the ass.
Recording the video is messy. YT-DLP could work for some things, But honestly with the level of what's coming I'd be afraid of leaving fingerprints on anything. Probably throwing a full screen player up in a 1080p window and using OBS on it would be the safest. Could probably get away with using an elgato to capture the HDMI signal up to 4K.
Speech to text models are light enough to run on raspberry pi. They'll need to be vetted. They're not highly accurate. Captioning is a great community task.
Organizing an indexing the captions, there's no shortage of free database software. I probably start with sqlight to keep things portable and fluid. Moving to Maria or Postgres when things get too slow, But then we're going to have to host it. Anonymous hosting is a completely different ball of wax.
Storing the data would get out of hand quickly. It's trivial enough to buy a single 20 tb hard drive and store more than we'd need for years. But then hosting it anonymously would be difficult to say the least. Even the markers of these conversations would be traceable enough for us to be located. Paying for a private enough nude to be safe is going to be pricey over time.
I'm sure archive.org would take it, But honestly I wouldn't put $5 on them surviving a couple of years into the new administration. What they're doing is to inconvenient to too many corporations with deep pockets.
IPFS would work, well about as well as it works anyway, but that's the opposite of anonymous.
Edit: come to think of it it would be a hoot to run it on the short video federated platform. Just keep the database somewhere else. Again not anonymous enough for my tastes, But what I had a little bit of fun to the project.
Wonder if they'll respin Gitmo and fill it with his opponents. Cuba could use some cash.

Is "Wagyu" ground beef a scam?
Ethan has a great guest star and does a blind taste test to see if "American Wagyu" ground beef is anything special.
The Statue of Unity is the world's tallest statue, with a height of 182 metres (597 feet), located near Kevadia in the state of Gujarat, India. It depicts Indian statesman and independence activist Vallabhbhai Patel (1875–1950), who was the first deputy prime minister and home minister of independent India...
The project was first announced in 2010, and construction started in October 2013 ... with a total construction cost of â‚ą27 billion (US$422 million). It was designed by Indian sculptor Ram V. Sutar and was inaugurated by the Prime Minister of India, Narendra Modi, on 31 October 2018, the 143rd anniversary of Patel's birth.

ÄŚrni Vrh Slovenia ice formations circa 2016
Slovenia
High above the village of Črni Vrh, fantastical ice formations—including spikes over a yard long—encase the trees and lookout tower atop Mount Javornik. The windswept ice, or hard rime, is the result of fog freezing after a week of snow and gales. This image appears in the December 2016 issue of National Geographic magazine.

Sx01 non-spoilery Review
spoiler
Damn they got down to business right away! Loved the humor. Love the story, Cheezy streaming refs went on a little long. Fry, Leela and the Professors Voicing had a few rough spots that wouldn't have happened in the last incarnation, it honestly kinda reminded me of some of the early voicing in season 1. John DiMaggio's performance was flawless. I love that they kinda mixed in a small anthology, had most of the people make cameos.

Well-Preserved 3,000-Year-Old Bronze Sword Found In Germany
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/smart-news/bronze-age-sword-germany-180982399/
archaeologists excavating a gravesite in the southern Bavarian town of Nördlingen found a 3,000-year-old sword in excellent condition
>Given the soft nature of bronze, historians have previously wondered whether such blades served a ceremonial purpose, rather than a practical purpose on the battlefield. A few years ago, scientists even staged sword fights in order to learn more about how the Bronze Age weapons could have been used effectively in battle, despite being much easier to damage and harder to repair than their iron successors.
Hey, are you guys supposed to be playing with the artifacts?
it's research!
"Blood falls" in Antarctica. This water contains ferrous iron, which, combining with atmospheric air, oxidizes and forms rust. It gives the waterfall that blood-red colour

Roughly two million years ago, the Taylor Glacier sealed beneath it a small body of water which contained an ancient community of microbes. Trapped below a thick layer of ice, they have remained there ever since, isolated inside a natural time capsule. Evolving independently of the rest of the living world, these microbes exist in a place with no light or free oxygen and little heat, and are essentially the definition of “primordial ooze.” The trapped lake has very high salinity and is rich in iron, which gives the waterfall its red color. A fissure in the glacier allows the subglacial lake to flow out, forming the falls without contaminating the ecosystem within.

The Crooked Forest
The Crooked Forest (Polish: Krzywy Las) is a grove of oddly-shaped pine trees located in the village of Nowe Czarnowo near the town of Gryfino, West Pomerania, in north-western Poland. It is a protected natural monument of Poland.
This grove of 400 pines was planted in around 1930. Each pine tree bends sharply to the north, just above ground level, then curves back upright after a sideways excursion of one to three meters (3–9 feet). The curved pines are enclosed by a surrounding forest of straight pine trees.
It is generally believed that some form of human tool or technique was used to make the trees grow or bend this way, but the method has never been determined, and remains a mystery to this day. It has been speculated that the trees may have been deformed to create naturally curved timber for use in furniture or boat building. Others surmise that a snowstorm could have bent the trunks, but there is little evidence of that.
Many people have been trying to find an answer to this mystery, but since the town of Gryfino was largely abandoned between the early stages of World War II until the 1970s, the people who were there before the war and probably had the answer to the mystery of the Crooked Forest are now likely gone forever.
