The good thing about not having an active security clearance is that there is no king that can take it away from you.

Vladimir Putin does not typically dress in military fatigues, and the main reason for this, I can only assume, is that he looks absolutely terrible in them.

A German national (Jessica Brösche), a British national (Becky Burke), and now a Canadian national (Jasmine Mooney) have all been detained at the border and placed in ICE custody under dubious pretenses.

It is time for other nations to issue a travel warning to tourists headed to the US.

No need for other countries to issue travel warnings — tourists are done with the USA now, who wants to vacation in a ‘shithole country’?

see alt text for further description, but as a quick summary: 12-24V in, 5.25V out, max output current 1.5A, operating current typically 500-700mA. designed for minimal EMI and noise. all downstream rails are generated from the 5V25 rail using high PSRR LDOs.
in reply to Graham Sutherland / Polynomial

having your typical about half max is a good idea: switchers get kinda bleah when they're operating at <20% max.

@admin The last thing one wants to do is become complacent.

But Canadians have been the victim of lack of respect from USA residents for months now, including an USA official crossing the border from side to side saying: “USA #1 / 51st state”.

@admin I won’t argue on the common threats you mentioned, which include also the Russian Federation.

But I do have to ask you a simple question: when did this whole thing start (as in a calendar date)?

We might have two different starting points.




John Adams regretted signing the Sedition Act of 1798, which restricted press freedom. He told his son it was "never a favorite" of his. The law expired in 1801, but its legacy as a restriction on free speech endures. A history professor explains: buff.ly/6HCy4Vx

I’ve seen Paperlike recommended before, often wondered about trying it as I do a lot of notes but find the bare iPad screen and pencil a bit slidey.

in reply to The Hat Fox

@thehatfox Absolutely! I've been using the Paperlike for years now, and I prefer the matte screen for both art and glare reduction.

Recently decided I wanted even more friction for drawing, so I bought some "MJKOR Soft Paperfeel Damping Tips" and have really liked it for the past couple weeks. I also tried a silicone cover for the Pencil tip, but it reduced the precision, which ruled it out for me.

Curious to hear your experiences, if you go for it 😀

@pluralistic : "Trump won office in part by insisting that America's institutions were not fit for purpose. He wasn't lying about that (for a change). The thing he was lying about was his desire to fix them. Trump doesn't want honest refs – he wants *no* refs. To defeat Trumpism, we need to stop pretending that our institutions are just fine – we need to confront their failings head on and articulate a plan to fix them"

Play the right game; keep playing it to the end.

Everyone talks about how bad our administrative state is, I don’t see it. Everything could probably use some tweaking or “improvements” and that’s what the IG’s are for. That’s what they did! Civil servants are awesome and in every group there are some, shall we say lazy people, but not corrupt or trying to take the system down like the muskrat is so that he can sell it and our public lands to tfg’s own companies and broligarchs.

One good quality (exactly.one) for this folding bike. It fits in a sedan trunk. Otherwise... low end shifters, not great quality anything. It does make airport pickup wait times more tolerable, however! #BikeTooter



This is excellent.

In the sixth year of this pandemic, you’d think people would want their beliefs to match reality.

I don't know about you, but I long for some cognitive...consonance.

The news has been more than a bit grim of late, so hooray for Carbon Brief providing some genuine and really meaningful **good** news: the UK's carbon emissions in 2024 were the lowest since 1872, because demand for fossil fuels just keeps decreasing.

yes the UK government has made good progress. I just wish that the UK public was allowed to participate. It feels much more like the government is ‘doing to’ than ‘doing with’. The policy barriers and costs for the public to decarbonise are frankly ludicrous. We are effectively barred from getting off of gas ourselves. Public transportation is dire and expensive. No cycle paths. All feels very toxic.



Unless a miracle occurs, Trump’s tariffs will keep driving up consumer prices and drag the U.S. into a 1970s-style stagflation crisis: high inflation, slow growth, and rising unemployment.

Jesus Christ (no pun intended) I followed some of his activities in the early days of the web. Then he and John Dvorak started a podcast and Curry was going down the loony tunes path with “don’t carry a phone, use an iPod touch on WiFi only”, and then prior to the 2016 election, I had to stop listening.

Seems he’s gone full batshit crazy.

Setting up Nginx Proxy Manager was easier than I thought! A few hurdles at first (longer blog post in the works) but I got it all working without much issue.

I am seeing things timeout every now and then but it seems a common problem so hopefully I can get that fixed.

in reply to Pete Prodoehl 🍕

I also managed to get docker running Nginx Proxy Manager on a Raspberry Pi, which had a few challenges but I think I've cleared all the hurdles.

The main issue was no clear direction on getting Docker and the container to startup at boot. Lots of forum post reading on that topic.

I found this site that lets you draw icebergs and see how they would float (joshdata.me/iceberger.html?fbc…) - I was looking for visualizations of the iceberg metaphor for behavior, how we only see 10% of what someone is really going through. It’s a great resource for that and also now I’m distracted seeing how an iceberg shaped like a cat would float.
