Woot!

[Edit] Wait, I just noticed this post is from 11 hours ago. Mander has been offline for me most of the day, but it was online about 7 hours ago and it just came back up again.

This right here is the main reason why Trump might succeed... The media has been beaten into submission and refuses to report the actual events that are occurring which make Trump look bad.

God that article was a horrible read. So for anyone who wants to skip it...

tl;dr: Hackers are using SSL certs from 2012 and changing the unprotected system clock in order to bypass security measures.

People are just too impatient. Don't they know Trump promised to bring down the prices on his first day back in office? /s

You didn't see the quote in the above comment that specifically states Teslas don't have lidar but other brands using it weren't fooled?

Trump Derangement Syndrome -- When you are so infatuated with Dear Leader that you will do anything for him, say anything to defend him, and try your best to be just like him.

Give it a year, Trump will nuke it to melt the ice, build resorts there, and then sue the families of those who die from the fallout for slander.

Seriously though, it's pretty cool how they're able to collect so much data on things like this.

Coming up on 57 here, but come on... if your job is politics, how can you not keep up with what's happening and how things are being done? I'm a computer nerd and I still feel like I know more about what's at stake with this vote than Schumer does.

Yeah it has us old Democrats fuming as well. I saw a poll posted yesterday regarding who was to blame is the gov shut down this weekend... it showed 32% blamed Trump, 32% blamed Republicans, and 33% blamed Democrats. Fuck it, I like those odds. Shut the whole thing down and let the majority of the US put the blame where it is due (Trump/GOP). The Senators could have stood their ground to fight for something, anything, but no, they had to weasel out. I'm happy to see both of my Senators have already publicly stated they would vote no (both on cloture and the CR), but it only takes 7 Dems to screw up the whole thing and we already know several of them will.

Are you trying to suggest that Ukrainians are extremists here? I mean seriously, what makes you think the country has the internet bandwidth to compete with what Twitter has available? For that matter, what makes you think they would have TIME for such things when Trump's master is dropping bombs on them?

Even the older versions work pretty well, depending on the features you need. I use it for all my 3D modeling, I could never get the hang of other CAD software but this one just "makes sense" to me. I even used it last year to create a model of a trailer I wanted to build, worked out the finer details of how everything would fit together and some options like adding ramps, and once we got to the point of building the trailer it was just a matter of copying the dimensions and cutting out all the steel.

And as usual, they always have to bury something in it that will directly hurt people.

 

Usually we see some potholes at the end of the snow season which get repaired fairly quickly... but this year... oh boy. Seems like they didn't start showing up until all the rain hit, and then they were everywhere, and so far I've seen very few getting fixed (and some that were fixed have opened up again).

My SUV has been pulling hard to the right the last few weeks. I finally got a chance to jack it up today, checked the wheel bearings and A-frames as the common culprits. Instead what I found is the lower A-frame has actually been pulled over on one side by nearly 1/2". I moved it back to roughly where it's supposed to be so I'm not tearing up my tire until I can get in for a proper alignment, but sheesh, could we maybe get some crews out to start patching the worst of the potholes at least? Usually our fair city is so quick on getting these things fixed!

 

I love seeing these groups pop up everywhere! They are such a fantastic resource to help prevent deadly mistakes, but also great for learning more about the incredible variety of mushrooms all around us, many of which are too tiny to casually notice but contain such beauty. As a kid I would hunt morels with my grandpa and that probably inspired me to keep my eyes open. Several years ago I had some huge mushrooms pop up in my yard, and after getting a positive ID I fried them up and ate them. Sometimes you just get lucky with what the squirrels drag into your yard.

Now I've finally taken the next step to growing my own, and yesterday transferred my first starts of oyster mushrooms to grain jars. I also managed to start some cremini spawn on boiled cardboard, and just giving it a little more time before transferring that to grain jars as well. Can't wait to taste all the results!

 

Like Mastodon, Lemmy is a federated group of servers, however in order for a server (also known as an 'instance') to be aware of content from another instance, someone has to let that server know the community exists...

In my case, my home is on mander.xyz. If I go to the communities tab and search for Longmont, nothing comes up. From the post on reddit I knew that the home of this group is at "https://lemmy.ml/c/longmont" so I simply put that whole string in the community search, and that tells my server of its existence. Then I can immediately go back and search for "Longmont" again, and now the group shows up and allows me to subscribe to it.

And of course this works for any other communities you are interested in, but which aren't hosted on the Lemmy server you have an account with. Once you or someone else on your server has subscribed to a community, anyone else on your server will also now immediately see that community without needing the full path.
