The goodwill near me wants $21 for a pair of jeans that are very obviously used and fairly thin. A thicker pair of jeans is $15.99 at the Walmart 3 miles down the road…

My town has three stores, Kroger, Safeway, and Walmart. As one goes so go they all most likely on this one so idk how I’d even begin to think about avoiding this longer term…

Do you have something to contradict it?
Edit: well I can’t find anything refuting this poore-nemecek they referenced besides a correction issued to the paper itself so guess I’ll just link it here in case anyone else is interested like I was.

I would think Bluetooth or plugging it in once in a blue moon for a firmware/schedule update like the good old days would be far preferable to anything that could connect them to the internet. I’d much rather air gapped and slightly inconvenient than internet enabled spyware all over my house.

Mines at least that as well, it’s good to know come next ups purchase as I would hate to get stuck with that kind of garbage. I’ll have to pay close attention to the battery now when searching

One thing they didn’t mention but I’ve seen on the news before is that flood waters often contain carcinogenic/other polluting chemicals leeched from the ground, and other waste streams. How much of that gets left in people’s soil (or wells if they have a well system), or even in their house after rebuilding?

A) you can survive without precooling or set it to start before getting deep into the store.
B)if you want that feature fine, but leave it off everyone else’s car! No cell connections should be installed by default like this. It’s a walking cve list waiting to happen.

Ubuntu is great for works out of the box kind of tasks, I have it on an old MacBook Pro 2012. With a free Ubuntu pro account I can get security updates for 22.10 lts until 2032! It’s already starting to act its age so security updates but a frozen OS helps not further tax it as software gets more complex. Point being there’s a niche even if in most other cases I might prefer something different.

Idk that a lot of people know/understand the difference to be honest.
Edit: difference between obedience and respect

The first time I saw my wife with makeup was our wedding day. Since then at most once every few months for work and then only maybe eye shadow and lipstick. Safe to say I prefer no makeup. Let the natural beauty shine on its own!

Counting the differences in cost (loan, gas, expected maintenance, insurance etc) it came out to where I would have to use the truck to haul something at least a very weekend possibly more to break even with a much newer car vs just renting a truck once or twice a year. Pickups are almost universally owned by people too stupid for middle school math imo.

Depends on whether the study is from places likely to be subject to bias like the “conservative” group institute for family values that claims county level polling shows more democrats get divorced (despite conceding the accuracy of state level polling?), or more normal groups that have shown for a decade plus now that red states have higher divorce rates. Top five are:
- Nevada
- Oklahoma
- Wyoming
- Alabama
- Arkansas

In the US (including Colorado), citizens arrests are only legal for felonies. Last I checked hopping a fence isn’t a felony so blocking them in and waving a gun is just a multitude of gun crimes and kidnapping charges even if he didn’t shoot one of them.

Our family income only went up because I picked up two (very) part time jobs lol it’s amazing that that is somehow a sign we’re back to normal in their eyes.
Independent presidential candidate Robert F Kennedy Jr has posted a video on social media in which he admits that he dumped a dead bear cub in New York City's Central Park in 2014. The clip, posted to his X account on Sunday, shows him with controversial US comedian Roseanne Barr as he describes bizarre circumstances that led to an incident that mystified New Yorkers 10 years ago. Mr Kennedy said a woman had hit and killed the bear with her car when he was driving behind her outside of the city, and he put it in his van with the intention of skinning the animal and harvesting its meat. It appears he shared the anecdote to get ahead of an upcoming story in The New Yorker magazine. The Kennedy campaign and the New Yorker did not respond to requests for comment. Seated with rolled-up sleeves at a table covered with food, Mr Kennedy tells Ms Barr in the video that he was driving to meet a group of people to go falconing near Goshen, New York, 10 years ago when the bear was killed. He says he pulled over to put the bear in his vehicle. "I was going to skin the bear - and it was in very good condition - and I was going to put the meat in my refrigerator," he says. "And you can do that in New York state: Get a bear tag for a roadkill bear." New York state does allow people to take bears killed on roads, but the law stipulates that a person has to notify law enforcement or the state's Department of Environmental Conservation to acquire such a tag. Mr Kennedy does not appear to have done that. Instead, he says he continued to his falconing venture, which went late into the evening. He says he went on to a dinner reservation he had at Peter Luger Steakhouse in New York City, about 75 miles (121km) south of Goshen. "At the end of the dinner, it was late and I realised I couldn't go home," Mr Kennedy says. "I had to go to the airport, and the bear was in my car, and I didn't want to leave the bear in my car because that would have been bad." That is when, he says, it occurred to him that there had been a series of bicycle accidents in New York and that he had an old bicycle in his car. He tells Ms Barr that he had the idea of staging a bike accident with the bear carcass in Central Park, which several drunk people with him heartily endorsed. He emphasises that he had not been drinking. "So we did that and we thought it would be amusing for whoever found it or something," he says. "The next day... it was on every television station. It was a front page of every paper and I turned on the TV and there was like a mile of yellow tape and 20 cop cars, there were helicopters flying, and I was like, 'Oh my god. What did I do?'"

Some of the highlights: OpenSSH has been updated to version 9.5p1. OpenSSL has been updated to version 3.0.12, a major upgrade from OpenSSL 1.1.1t in FreeBSD 13.2-RELEASE. The bhyve hypervisor now supports TPM and GPU passthrough. FreeBSD supports up to 1024 cores on the amd64 and arm64 platforms. ZFS has been upgraded to OpenZFS release 2.2, providing significant performance improvements. It is now possible to perform background filesystem checks on UFS file systems running with journaled soft updates. Experimental ZFS images are now available for AWS and Azure. The default congestion control mechanism for TCP is now CUBIC. And much more… For a complete list of new features and known problems, please see the online release notes and errata list, available at: https://www.FreeBSD.org/releases/14.0R/relnotes/
II. Problem Description Some of the Sanitizers cannot work correctly when ASLR is enabled. Therefore, at the initialization of such Sanitizers, ASLR is detected via procctl(2). If ASLR is enabled, it is first disabled, and then the main executable containing the Sanitizer is re-executed, after printing an appropriate message. However, the Sanitizers work by intercepting various function calls, and by mistake the already-intercepted procctl(2) function was used. This causes an internal error, which usually results in a segfault. III. Impact Binaries linked to AddressSanitizer (using -fsanitize=address), MemorySanitizer (using -fsanitize=memory) or ThreadSanitizer (using -fsanitize=thread) can crash at startup with a segfault, if ASLR is enabled. Other binaries are not affected. IV. Workaround If ASLR is enabled system-wide, the problem can be worked around by running the specific binary with proccontrol(1), to temporarily disable ASLR for only that program. For example: proccontrol -m aslr -s disable /path/to/example_program
II. Problem Description A check did not test both the dnode itself and its data for dirtiness. This provides a very small window of time while a file is being modified where the dirtiness check can falsely report that the dnode is clean. If this happens a hole may incorrectly be reported where data was written. III. Impact If an access occurs while a file is being modified and a hole is incorrectly reported, the data may instead be interpreted as zero bytes. Any application which checks for holes may be affected by this issue; if this occurs during a file copy it will result in a corrupt copy that retains the incorrect data. Note that the source file remains intact (a subsequent read will return the correct data). IV. Workaround Setting the vfs.zfs.dmu_offset_next_sync sysctl to 0 disables forcing TXG sync to find holes. This is an effective workaround that greatly reduces the likelihood of encountering data corruption, although it does not completely eliminate it. Note that with the workaround holes will not be reported in recently dirtied files. See the zfs(4) man page for more information of the impact of this sysctl setting. The workaround should be removed once the system is updated to include the fix described in this notice.

> A Texas prisoner who is facing execution having been sent to death row on the basis of “shaken baby syndrome”, a child abuse theory that has been widely debunked as junk science, has had his petition to the US supreme court denied. > The country’s highest court issued its denial on Monday morning giving no explanation. Robert Roberson, 56, who was sent to death row in 2003 for shaking his two-year-old daughter Nikki to death, had appealed to the justices to take another look at his case focusing on the largely discredited forensic science on which his conviction was secured. > The court’s decision leaves Roberson’s life in jeopardy. Having come within four days of execution in 2016, he has already exhausted appeals through Texas state courts and must now rely on the mercy of the Republican governor Greg Abbott who rarely grants clemency. > “Robert Roberson is an innocent father who has languished on Texas’s death row for 20 years for a crime that never occurred and a conviction based on outdated and now refuted science,” the prisoner’s lawyer, Gretchen Sween, said.
Good afternoon everyone! The bot apparently didn't like a few things with the new schedule but it looks like I have it together now. I'll be back to check on it before game time.
