My dogs will eat them if they get hit. It's not a problem.

All IoT devices on my network go into a VLAN that blocks internet access. Using Unifi, I think it's just a checkbox to turn internet access on/off. I use a virtual nic on my Home Assistant VM that recognizes that vlan and can communicate with all those devices, as well as a separate nic which is hooked up to the main vlan.

I don’t get it. This is super easy w htmx.

This is the most ungrateful comment I've read today, harping away about how 'it should have been done'.

Well you fucking do it then.

I know that my time is so short (because I have a family) that if I can even do a project then I'm almost certainly not going to document it because getting it done will be enough of a stretch for me, and if I need to come back and re-do it again, I am probably not going to even bother. Not all of us live in mom's basement and have the luxury of extra time.

Ok well maybe my guy is full of shit but this is what he told me.

I did some I.T. work for an owner of a funeral home in my town (~ 20,000 people) about a year ago. He said that after the roll out of the shots, and specifically not directly after Covid, but after the shots, people starting coming in with unbelievable blood clots when he cleaned them out the likes of which he had never seen before in his > 30 years in business. Go talk to a mortician in your own town and find out for yourself.

Might be a totally dumb question but how does this work? Wouldn’t you already have to have communication to set a time?

And for states that do not require a permit? This law is clearly unconstitutional and should be abolished. It clearly states 'shall not be infringed' in the 2nd amendment. The founders had just fought a war of liberation, and were aimed at empowering the people to be safe against tyranny.

Nice. Similar to asitop, but looks a little more feature full.

Nice. I’ve been building something similar in php. But then you have to have a web server to run it. And it uses yt-dlp, so you also often have to make sure that is up to date before you run it.

* in the address bar (that is: 'star' 'space') will put you in bookmark search. I use tags prolifically and can search for keywords here and it works pretty well.

I use Orion on ios.

I've been experimenting with some home automation using Home Assistant recently. Its scope is absolutely incredible. Some open source friendly brands are Sonoff, Shelly, and Athom. Would be really sweet if there was an Awesome Open Source Home Assistant git some day. =)

Interesting. 'Automatic database diagrams'. How does that work in a db without primary/foreign keys?

Several restaurants around me offer a cash 'discount'.

I've been using Arc and I've become a fan of folders + vertical tabs also. But I also want bookmarks with tags. I don't want to keep 'pinouts for xyz motherboard' open somewhere all the time. I want to tag it with 'dell', 'motherboard', and 'pinout' and then search when I need it instead of having to remember what 'Space' I put it in. I prefer bookmarks to web search when possible because often enough I spend stupid amounts of time searching for a little tidbit and may want to come back to it later.

Rather than cleaning out bookmarks, I would keep a few main bookmarks and folders on the toolbar, and file away everything else under one few big folders with tags.

I use Firefox for tagging and it seems to be a fantastic way to keep track of thousands of sites with small cognitive load. Am I missing some workflow that's 'better'?

Our domain checks out because we use O365. However, we have an old Exchange server sending out via SMTP. We're not sure what the best path forward is for us. Do we change our apps to route through O365? Will probably take days for that. We have in house custom apps that use it heavily. Anyone have good resources on what we should do?

Hook it to a $35 raspberry pi and install CUPS. Become an typical AirPrint enjoyer. I'm using an ancient parallel port printer hooked to my primary file server.

Yes, SB107. The bill that enables CA to take custody of your kid if they go there for the purpose of 'gender affirming care'.

Since you appear to like leftist news rags (like politifact):

Puberty blockers cause sterilization.

https://wng.org/roundups/study-effects-of-puberty-blockers-c...

Cutting off a healthy boy's dick and testicles is sterilization. Do I need to link to something for that to back up that claim?

In the future, we will look back on the whole of 'gender affirming care' in wonder at how brainless and cruel we could have been to children.

>> a lot of it is also just teaching you how to learn and how to think critically

It does not appear that this is happening in government run schools as prevalently as you may want to believe.

Currently (2023), homeschoolers make up less than 7% of the population. That is likely an all time high. So what you're telling me is that government schools are catastrophically bad at enabling American students to distinguish fact from opinion?

Also, homeschoolers do better on standardized tests than their government schooled counterparts. So it seems like we should be advocating for and advancing homeschool interests if we actually care about education, since it is the homeschoolers who are 'doing it right', according to outcomes.

Please describe to me how believing in evolution is going to help Bill put my plumbing or electrical system in correctly or be able to have a good crop this year.

The blatant egotism/authoritarianism in this thread of believing that the government somehow has a right or duty to raise one's children is stunning.

I have a relative (11 yo) is was an absolute gem of a human. I had noticed over the last 4-5 years she was becoming more reclusive, quiet, and sad in demeanor. She left public school and began homeschooling last year, and it has absolutely turned her life completely around. She is once again becoming more vibrant, enthused for life, and is thriving with new friends from her various weekly activities. I asked her if she liked her new coop school she attends (once per week) and of it she says 'there is way less drama'.

Why does anyone think the potential for abuse by the education system itself and peers therein is less likely than abuse by the family? In fact, my children are now legally allowed to become sterilized in the state of California during school time and that's allowed to be kept secret for me. That is legalized abuse.

For all the problems homeschooling might have, I believe the risks of 'unchecked child welfare' via family/community education FAR outweight the risks of the government run daycare centers on any day. Look at the outcomes: homeschoolers consistently score higher on standardized tests.

Only when we are not being aware is it possible that we forget.

Of the three, I would exclusively only classify what people put their attention on as excrement, not childish nor stupid. Childish implies only children do it. Children are, in fact, more capable of comfortably settling into their own being up until around 3 yo. Stupid is a value judgment that I can't find much use for excepting as in describing politicians and the daily utturances to my wife that make our relationship a bit more unnecessarily 'gritty', let us say.

I suppose I'm a bit confused as to what you mean by 'quiet attention'. Does that mean when by one's self or in other similarly externally quiet situations, or by 'quiet attention' do you mean attention that seems quiet to all other because of its nature being inward, inside the individual exclusively?

I'm not sure why you're discussing enlightenment here, as I haven't mentioned it. I like to imagine and hope that I do feel better than other people in general, yes. For these and many other reasons, I can most assuredly assure you that I do not consider myself to be 'enlightened', whatever it is that you mean by that word.

I use the Buddhist term 'being aware' to denote that one is sensing and feeling and turning a part of one's attention inward. I freely admit that I don't know a terrible great deal about Buddishm, nor study it any longer and nor do I formally meditate, in the case that it may soothe your nerves. Rest easy knowing I am but a simple heathen.

All other activity of the mind that involves discarding this most energy preserving and growing mechanism (being aware) that is built into us all, these activities which result only in expended energy, are specifically excrement of thought by comparison. They come of their own volition and without us asking or trying, just like the shit out of our asses.

It is the excrement of thought produced by not 'being aware' as the Buddhists put it. It is the waste of not pouring one's attention into being in the body. When delusion/sleep/loss of 'consciousness' takes hold, this waste will flood into the brain without cessation.

I set up nginx to point to my UDMP's 443 port via a subdomain of mine. Unsure if this is horrible security but I don't have 'Remote Access' turned on. I guess at worst it relies on UniFi OS security and auth to be solid?

Why can't the police come to one of the Verizon stores in person and have a manager there verify by calling back the officially posted number of the department they are from?

Currently working on a new federal report requiring us to send 7 fields to them yearly. They have provided a 1,670 page document to 'help' us send them the data.
