Barnes and Noble is on a hard upswing recently, and are expanding., mainly by allowing local stores to stock what sells in their areas.
Still, buy from bookshop.org if you can. Its a coalition of thousands of small bookshops where the vast majority of profits from purchases flow right back to them instead of megacorps.
When ranchero meets the cure.
Yeah, I was a planned day 1 buy for Sots, but got held up and didn’t buy it early. By the time I went to get it, the blood red reviews had already washed in.
Ill be waiting on this one.
Hes not made of velour and goose-down. I’m sure hell be fine in a vance off.
This was shown before the sentencing. The judge referenced it explicitly in their sentencing as a reason to apply leniency.
From a comment above:
Here’s what the judge had to say:
“I loved that AI, and thank you for that. As angry as you are, and as justifiably angry as the family is, I heard the forgiveness, and I know Mr. Horcasitas could appreciate it, but so did I,” Lang said immediately before sentencing Horcasitas. “I love the beauty in what Christopher, and I call him Christopher—I always call people by their last names, it’s a formality of the court—but I feel like calling him Christopher as we’ve gotten to know him today. I feel that that was genuine, because obviously the forgiveness of Mr. Horcasitas reflects the character I heard about today. But it also says something about the family, because you told me how angry you were, and you demanded the maximum sentence. And even though that’s what you wanted, you allowed Chris to speak from his heart as you saw it. I didn’t hear him asking for the maximum sentence.”
Looking at the trees brings most of the relief, so I expect even those are just as calming as long as you don’t touch them and don’t know what they are.
They mention his tariffs, but it’s also a bigger issue that has to do with the laws of physics hitting economics.
Wired, wireless. A flared base is the actual key.
Dont worry. Most of those will burn down, leaving plenty of room for houses to be built to the new requirements.
Best case is enough houses get built to this standard and intermixed into those neighborhoods to give a type of “herd immunity” from fires moving house to house. Hell, even a good bulwark of these in a line facing the forest might do it.
Trees are also essential for insects, bird and animal life in cities. They are psychologically calming for people as well.
Damn straight. Even if you didn’t before joining Lemmy, c/tenforward is so good you’re going to start.
Shes had sharp quips about Dave over the years, and the timelines work out.
She dated Ryan Reynolds for years too. She clealry has a thing for comedians.
Holy fuck. Red truck, pale fuck, blue truck. Red, white and blue.
His profile pic is a flag.
Cant Kobayashi maru the trolley problem. There is no choice but the choices presented.
The lift here is that you setup the end users client. If they aren’t local, buy one and ship it. Since it will be on your always on tailscale vpn, you can then interact with it remotely if needed.
Android tvs can be had for $35, Raspi 5 are around the same range, with apple tvs about $130. Have people pony up the cash and mail one of what they want out to them.
That may be too much to ask if you share to a lot of casual friends/family, but its been a successful answer for me.
Jellyfin takes more work, but can be a “simple” end user experience if you set it up for them.
Use a reverse proxy to get a letsenceypt cert for your jellyfin server. SWAG, Caddy, lots of options. Then setup a free tailscale account and add your jellyfin server to your tailnet. Install the jellyfin and tailscale apps on the user android tv/apple tv/computer, then enroll the devices in your tailnet.
They will have always on, ssl secured, vpn protected media sharing for free.
They sold to private equity a couple years back. The enshittification started that day.
D works well. Being dead puts you in a decent “no one to fool with” category.
Fucker cant even do a prat fall at this point.
Tourists have to buy day passes or a discovery pass in Washington. Day passes are $11.50/day. They are already in general being charged way more than people that go to the parks year round with the $35 annual pass. This is comparable, but actually higher, than what hawaii charges tourists.
Hawaii’s parks are visited way more by tourists than Washingtons parks. You would have to make the tourist pass something ridiculous to cover the shortfall, which would price out tourists, meaning no income for the park, meaning parks destroyed by Washingtonians.
$35/yr is a reasonable resident cost. $11/day is a reasonable tourist cost. Seems like Washington has made reasonable choices for this that reflect the states needs.
His rational is powerfully idiotic.
For one, a lot of these goods are sold by US companies. Those jobs, that revenue on leases and equipment, are spent in the US. For two, we don’t make most of this shit here to buy at all, and in some cases like “exotic” foodstuff like coffee, we cannot make it here. Americans can literally not spend our money on something American made even if we wanted to. For three, the factories and supply chain to make the things will take decades to stand up, the same way they took decades to stand up in China, where US corporate greed for offshoring and a local authoritarian government that plans for decades, generally at the short term detriment of its people, worked together to build it.
Putting shitty tariffs on the world wont shift the above. It has to be followed with ungodly, focused government spending for a generation. Everyone knows this shit is over in a small handful of years, not 20, so no corporation is going to make the huge investment in the US infrastructure that we would need.
