Buy stocks in companies that you:

1. Know and understand what they do
2. Generally vibe okay with that kinda business
3. See the appeal for consumers in a general sense
4. Ideally don’t have a lot of other companies doing the same thing

Hahaha it’s learning from the Epstein files!

I 100% believe this. How else is Trump gonna scrub gigabytes of data in 30 days without employing an army of editors (and potential blabbermouths)? They’re gonna make grok do it! The article even mentions a new, secret DOJ grok deal.

In our guest house, whenever the laundry machine ran, half the lights would go out. It was due to the drain hose having a small leak. The water seeped down and shorted an outlet in the crawl space. So I had to:

• fix the drain hose
• replace the main water disconnect valve that randomly wore out and got stuck in the off position (learn about pex, buy and use a crimper tool)
• replace some rotten wood
• replace shorted outlet with GCFI
• replace crawl space skirting I broke when investigating

Ah, good times. But now it’s all fixed. For now.

Stuff I run:

• HomeAssistant (home automation)
• frigate (local foss security cam mgmt)
• metube (web gui for yt-dlp)
• technitium (dns mgmt with adblocking and many other features that make it better than pihole imo)
• pdfDing (foss for pdf library mgmt)
• netbird (in lieu of ddns, I use this self hosted vpn to connect to stuff when I’m not local)
• caddy (maybe similar to ngnx, this lets me use custom names so I don’t have to remember ip/ports to connect)
• heimdall (simple static dashboard)

While getting into an arms race with school shooters is kind of a ridiculous path, I do wish we would take this opportunity to develop personal force field/shield technology like they have in Dune.

You could invent your own. It wouldn’t stop someone who was really determined to trick you, because the tradeoff between convenience and perfect security would likely leave you vulnerable to reverse engineering. But that being said, you can take your message, reverse it, Caesar cypher it, replace letters with numbers, drop vowels or spaces, etc etc until you’ve mangled it into a “hash” that only you know how to produce.

NO SOUP FOR YOU! NEXT!

Awesome! Thanks so much for doing this and sharing!

I came here to comment on Japan, haha. Almost everywhere you go, no trashcans and no trash! Their society is like a hive mind in a lot of ways, though. I’m not sure it’ll work with Rugged American Individualism®

Edit to add: Damn, I just realized OP is in England. Maybe they can make it work.

Are your clients using port 8444 for https? 443 is the standard

…and I can’t get up!

That was a hilarious read. Thanks for posting! I had to learn/use prolog for a class in college and in the ~10 years since then, this is the first time I’ve ever seen mention of it in the wild. I lost it at Chad’s flustered assertion that “…nobody knows prolog!”

Ugh, same exact boat here. Thankfully my partner jumps on the grenade and browses the local FB content and then relays the important/interesting info to me, though :)

Been following this for a while! I’m getting one!

Ugh. This made my stomach knot up. That was probably someone’s mom. She probably had beautiful stories and a lifetime of experience to share. It’s fucking awful. Fuck this war. Fuck Putin.

But if there is some sort of breathing technique that works

The purpose of this post was to try to find an answer to this question

Wow, thank you! This is by far the most helpful answer. I will take a stab at grokking this paper.

Because I don’t always have an N95 mask on my person? Because I can’t always 100% control my environment, but I can almost always exercise some control over how I breathe?
