At worst it's like a couple more weeks

If it was a good deterrent, why does it keep happening?

I'm serious. I don't get it.

I dropped the argument about better because you don't care that it's better. You made that very clear.

It is better. Better than it would have been. Better than other countries did.

The Democrats are absolute shit. But they're still better than the other absolute shit. And in America you only get those two options.

So I'll say again. If your plan isn't to hold your nose and vote for the better of two shits, what is your plan?

You see that bridge over there? I built that with my own two hands. But do they call me Hans the bridge builder? No...

You see the town hall building on the hill? I laid every one of those bricks. But do they call me Hans the bricklayer? No....

But you shag one sheep...

Toast some Italian bread and make a sandwich.

Your purity makes you ineffective and useless.

There are fewer of them than there could have been. Regulations are written in the blood of our citizens.

And your recommended alternative to voting for Democrats is...?

Maybe sometimes.

Obesity is only a choice if mental health issues are a choice too.

Oh right. I forgot that leftists don't accept "better". They only accept "perfect".

Only about half of that sounds true.

Unions : https://www.cnn.com/2023/11/21/business/big-paydays-union-members/index.html

Inflation is slowing: https://www.cnn.com/2024/10/10/economy/us-cpi-consumer-inflation-september/index.html

And you want the government to price fix groceries, which I agree with. But that's unlikely to ever happen in America.

I bought a house a few months ago and I'm still trying to figure out all the wiring. I found these coming out of a cabinet in the kitchen.

I think (?) the black one is a cut-off coax cable. There's a LOT of coax in this house, so that seems straightforward (but I would still love if someone can confirm!)

I'm not sure about the other ones. They don't look electric, as I'd expect electric to be black + white + copper, like the rest of the house.

There is supposedly a speaker system in the house (I see speakers) but I haven't figured it out yet. Could that be power for the speakers? I'm not familiar with speaker wire setup. If it's speakers, why would there be so many wires?

 

I'm looking for an inexpensive label maker that can print small labels. I need to label various things around my house for my sanity (outlet/breaker mapping, coax endpoint mapping, etc).

I was going to buy a NIIMBOT D110, but then I saw in their FAQ that they put an IC (chip) into their labels and the printer won't print if it can't sense it. I really don't want to support a company that DRMs their consumables, if I can help it.

Can anyone recommend a good, small, inexpensive label maker? Preferably one that doesn't have sketchy DRM embedded.

 

I was reading about how the EU is thinking of reducing the lead used in ammunition because it's polluting the environment. I wonder if regular lead exposure at the firing range is addling people's brains.

 
 

Exercise is hitting. My brain gives up way before my body does. Even when I try and listen to music or watch shows while exercising, I just can't keep at it.

Has anyone found an ADHD friendly way to exercise?

 

A fine specimen indeed
