The fourth point "okay, first meeting. Let's talk about death, aliens and your ex" actually sounds like riveting conversation

No, the city rolls around and if there are things sticking up out of the ground high enough outside of a flower bed they take pictures and send you a letter

Honestly we shouldn't discount the possibility that Luigi is innocent or that there was planted evidence

My city will put a letter in my mailbox telling me to get rid of weeds and fine me $150 if I don't. Rip

It may have existed before but it's pretty clear this is about weeding out dissenting opinions, to my knowledge the only thing that would previously disqualify you would be extremist opinions that aligned with terrorist groups. Now if at any point you've criticized the actions of MAGA then you're probably SOL. You'd probably be disqualified for saying Elon is a moron. Trying to downplay this as "not news" is pretty disingenuous considering they've shown they don't care about the law or anyone's constitutional rights.

Not sure, probably meant to indicate the MAGA is someone in need of care, someone on disability or a veteran. Someone who was directly impacted by maga decisions but still drinks the Kool-aid

I remember thinking... The average mp3 is like 3-5 MB... thats damn near 200 songs. I miss burning CDs. Coming up with a hot mix made you feel like a fly ass DJ. now there's like 6000 songs in my library and some days I don't seem to like any of lol

Isn't that what threading is? Concurrency always happens on single core. Parallelism is when separate threads are running on different cores. Either way, while the post is meant to be humorous, understanding the difference is what prevents people from picking up the topic. It's really not difficult. Most reasons to bypass the GIL are IO bound, meaning using threading is perfectly fine. If things ran on multiple cores by default it would be a nightmare with race conditions.

Because Musk insists that cameras are better and that LiDAR is flawed

To the users yes, or coax(DOCSIS), how they get to the Internet doesn't really matter, the challenge for rural communities is how they connect to the urban networks(backhaul).

A lot of rural towns are actually serviced by wireless point to point radios. They have some impressive throughput capabilities but nowhere near what fiber can provide. Also, they are affected by environmental factors like weather or wildlife (https://youtu.be/cZkAP-CQlhA)

ISPs don't really want to spend millions of dollars to run fiber through mountains to service a town of 4 or 5 thousand people, it would be a poor investment, this is where government programs like above can be useful in then allowing that town or region to have better Internet.

They can probably make the argument that starlink is cheaper but it's not a long term solution.

My theory is he takes HGH but he doesn't exercise. The protruding midsection is a common result.

Maybe it's just me, but I've never seen anything of value posted on mastodon or Twitter. The format doesn't seem to create meaningful discussions

 

Just wondering if anyone else has experienced something similar. I'm a 30yo M and I didn't really speak English properly until I was about 14 years old. By that time, teachers just assumed I'm an asshole or being intentionally difficult. When I was younger, teachers told my parents I was likely ADHD and that they should take me to a healthcare processional, but being Hispanic in the early 2000s, to my parents, that was akin to calling me mentally disabled, so they just told me there was nothing wrong with me and that I just needed to apply myself.

I've went to primary care doctors over the last few years and described my symptoms, high peaks and long valleys when it comes to my mood and energy and my inability to focus. Unfortunately, I think I've been masking for so long that everyone I talk to about this assumes I'm depressed. Even took some depression meds for a while, gave it an honest try and couldn't stand the side effects.

Not sure if I should just resign myself to this reality. I've failed upwards enough through enough very painful trial and error to land myself a solid career, but my energy and motivation is getting really hard to manage, despite the fact that I'm doing everything I can to live a healthy lifestyle(exercise daily, good sleep, etc)
