just became aware of this--the regime wants to clear-cut massive chunks of Oregon's old growth forests in the name of timber production.

you have until March 23rd to comment.

i know we have endless fucking things to scream at politicians about--this is an important one too.

i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)

you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

They've been so deviously good about this sort of thing for so long that I almost feel bad drawing attention to it. It feels like the guerilla cable TV hacking of the '70s and '80s

The NY Times dutifully reporting that the Supreme Court sided with Trump only 42% of the time and with Biden 54% of the time sort of leaves out the necessary context that Biden was doing normal, completely legal presidential stuff, and Trump was doing insane crimes

If you are wondering what words the all-male Congress found so "blasphemous" that they felt compelled to literally scrape them off the monument, they were: ''Woman, first denied a soul, then called mindless, now arisen, declared herself an entity to be reckoned.''

Yeah, two channel 50 MHz. For $59 on alibaba I’m guessing it won’t be too useful above 25 MHz. But I’m just using it with old 8-bit computers where the fastest signal you typically encounter is 14 MHz (4 times NTSC color burst) in the video output hardware.

I’m guessing they got tired of shipping out replacement fuses and the sticker was cheaper than including spares in the box.

LOL I was amused by this yellow sticker. I guess they had too many clueless customers complaining about their new toys breaking.

In magic (as in software) true names have power, and getting a demon's name wrong can be deadlyβ€”or it was, before Gandalf the GUID assigned them all unique 128-bit identifiers.

On 29th January 1996, "Threshold", the Star Trek: Voyager episode where Captain Janeway and Tom Paris turned into giant space newts and had babies first aired. Since it's #ThresholdDay we aim to answer a burning question: did Paris and Janeway fuck? If so, how did they fuck?

It’s really difficult & disorienting but the feds hit LA extremely hard today. There were kidnappings all over & reported cluster raids in Chinatown, East LA, Ktown. This list shows to 1130 AM but they haven’t stopped all day

Just because the media attention stopped doesn’t mean the abductions have

I know all eyes are on Minneapolis, but there's a fast-approaching nightmare in Springfield, Ohio.

Trump is revoking protected status for tens of thousands of Haitians living there on Feb. 3.

Reportedly, on Feb. 4, 1000 ICE agents are arriving to remove this population. Ethnic cleansing.

Trump has decided to exempt coal used in steelmaking from Clean Air Act rules for the next two years. He issued a proclamation allowing coke oven facilities to sidestep existing limits on toxic emissions including mercury, formaldehyde, soot, and dioxins.

Yes your taxes should support disabled people.

They should support homeless people.

They should support those living in poverty, children and the elderly.

This is literally the purpose of taxes, and I would far rather support those who need it than continue to enrich the elite.

Where does Stolen Device Protection come up short? (Especially if set to β€œalways” rather than β€œaway from familiar locations”?)

About Stolen Device Protection for iPhone - Apple Support Stolen Device Protection adds a layer of securityΒ when your iPhone is away from familiar locations, such as home or work.

First, I’d strongly recommend enabling Stolen Device Protection which mostly fixes that: support.apple.com/en-us/120340

Second, I would suggest not using just a 4 digit code. The iPhone defaults to requiring 6 digits now, but I’ve long had a passcode that’s over ten digits.

Immigration is good. It's not "not bad", it's actually "very good". It's moral, ethical, and good for a country's culture, economy, cuisine, security, and stability. The US needs more. Every country in the EU needs more.

Anti-immigrant politics and policies are slowly killing entire countries.

In 1970, unemployment was super low (3.5%) and minimum wage jobs paid $14 an hr in today's money.

Today, unemployment is also super low (3.6%), but minimum wage jobs only pay ~$7.25 an hr.

People aren't faking when they say they're struggling.
