Bingo. My father is an illiterate immigrant but managed to work (in a different time) and retire early as a result. Put me through college. These statistics are depressing at face value but they're not as awful as they might seem.

This article doesnt mention this is a 4 year phase out period so this doesn't happen all at once. I work in consumer electronics, some things will get easier, some harder, but generally it will all get more expensive.

For my trixie Debian boxes I just did a normal apt upgrade, rebooted, checked the kerenel with uname -r and confirmed it was 6.12.85-1. All set!

But google still gets paid. The advertisers will just pump money into Google's coffers.

Prostate cancer is really easy to treat and delay, unfortunately. I have a family member dealing with it right now, very late stage, and its still extremely treatable.

Two full time working parents while raising little kids, having to help care for aging parents and help them navigate the health system is exhausting. I'm supposed to be enjoying my 40s, were financially set at least, but I still feel like I'm stuck in an endless grind. American dream.

Did mine early March and I'm still waiting for the Feds to give me my money. Where's my money?!

Actually I think people advocating for better policing instead of just deepthroating “cops good” makes the problem better.

Where did I 'deep throat cops good'? You are sensitive and over reacting to a simple utterance and appreciation that cops are both good and bad. All people, all things, are some mix of good and bad and various ratios.

The solution is simple, if you want people to respect police, the police need to become respectable. As it stands they can abuse you with near impunity, so they get fear and disdain.

This is the only thing you've said I've agreed with, but what exactly are you going to do about it? You ask why am I more concerned with the the fear and disdain; because it causes apathy. Apathy breeds indifference and/or hopelessness which doesn't solve any problems but propagates it. You appear firmly in the apathetic camp, its whats wrong with this country and politics in general. I'm not pretending I have the solution but the first step to moving in any direction is appreciating the subtly of everything and stop pretending its all so simple as black and white.

Ok so all police are bad, even if there are good hearted individuals that try to make a difference in a community, just because they joined a police force. I find that logic silly and extremely rigid, but fine. What exactly is your alternative? What should be happening instead? Maintaining a basic rule of law and society is kind of important, and as fucked up police forces are they're fulfilling some of the tasks. The problem is more about how to have accountability in police forces, not just wholesale disenfranchisement. Divisive dismissing of any race, group, organization or entity isn't helpful and is ignorant. It makes the problems worst, not better. You become what you loathe.

 

I've towed at least 10 cords of wood and hauled my trailer workshop all over the place. Also bomb through the woods and yard while pulling trees and junk on a regular basement. Car keeps rising to the occasion and impressing me everyday despite the fact I keep asking it to do what it shouldn't.

 
 

So I had a verbal conversation with a coworker yesterday and now I'm getting fed very specific ads. No possible way it's accidental. I have most of the microphone access to apps limited, I have Google assistant turned off and no VPA setup in my home. I use a Oneplus 9 pro, does anyone have recommendations on how to further root cause this or just par for the course for using any standard android OS? Have other folks had similar experience after locking down their stock phones?

 

Title says most of it. Spin electric scooters exited the Seattle market and abandoned their scooters all over the city and apparently they have a pi 4 in them!
