dude187··on 'Vaccine lettuce' bill (food containing a vaccine is a drug) passes in Tennessee
States have a similar setup patterned off the federal government, with most things falling only in the purview of the states. In this case they're correctly making sure that vaccines delivered as food are correctly treated as such under the framework here https://unicourt.github.io/cic-code-tn/transforms/tn/octn/r7...

Considering the active development this is very forward thinking and timely

They make perfect devices for media use. Low power, silent and just powerful enough

I don't see that in the article

It's the legislative branch that determines that, with legislation exactly like this...
dude187··on School absences have ‘exploded’ almost everywhere
CRT is mainstream, and the foundation of tainted beliefs like "whiteness" being "evil" and somehow being the root of problems. It's a foundation in what teachers learn in training and apply in their teachings.

I would assume you also oppose teachers getting their Master's in education? After all, that's not a subject that has never been taught in any primary school ...

Critical race theory is not some made up Boogeyman. It's real, it's used to influence the curriculum being taught, and it's just as bad as described

I assume time zone. It's very useful in dividing follow the sun team coverage
dude187··on Why Is the Press Attacking Home Schoolers?
That's not really a related topic. In this case the parameter you demand to be prevented is "parental abuse" and the tool for preventing is "regulation". With the application of such regulation being applied via forcing the children into certain government run facilities.

The logical end of that is not "public school". It's an elimination of the concept of parents raising their own kids, in favor of removing children at birth and placing them in government run facilities.

dude187··on Tech's DEI backlash is here
What about his comment implies that? I don't get that at all
dude187··on The teenager who lives like it's the 1940s
I always heard it put as (for highway driving) "9 you're fine, 10 you're mine". I do a lot of highway driving and the cruise is always set to 9 over, never had a problem. I just slow up at the speed traps but usually they probably see my first speed before I slow up
dude187··on It's never been a better time to switch to Firefox
Glad I never stopped using it
dude187··on Touch Bar Discontinued on New MacBooks After Seven Years
I don't know why they insisted on replacing the top row with it. That was why so many people hated it. If it was just an addition it would have been nice or just something to ignore
dude187··on Americans falling behind on auto loan payments at record pace
None of that listed makes them somehow "useless" and many are useful upgrades
dude187··on Americans falling behind on auto loan payments at record pace
Or, you know, they live 20 miles away and it's 20 degrees outside...
dude187··on Americans falling behind on auto loan payments at record pace
A very large majority of Americans cannot use bicycles period. Don't act like it's some kind of personal shortcoming. The entire idea is simply not realistic for most people, and I don't understand why that's so hard for some people to understand

dude187··on Ask HN: How hackable are the Meta smart glasses?
> I completely understand why they did it and it's a good thing that the general public can't take pictures with it without it being obvious.

Why is it a good thing?

> But as an hobbyst street photographer

Aka the general public. Why should the not-you "general public" be restricted, but not you?

dude187··on Covid's damage lingers in the heart
Can you link to even a single example of that?
dude187··on Personal aviation is about to get interesting
I don't understand what you're asking for. Ban activities that aren't necessary which could have an impact on the environment?

This is an article about a new set of standards designed to shift the category of planes pilots fly away from homebuilt ones (done out of a cost/availability necessity) by allowing a wider range of accessible commercial ones to be certified. What does that have to do with the environment?

This change has been needed for a long time and is good to see

> I hope these bigots continue to be evil and dumb, if they get smart then we're really in for a bad time.

I love the irony in your bigoted comment.

dude187··on Looking back on SaaS product strategy
> But at the same time I agree if we don't build it, we won't have customers and unfortunately keeping/geetting new customers is not exact science.

Read that as "unfortunately keep getting new customers" and all I could think of is clerks.

"This job would be great if it wasn't for the customers"

dude187··on Covid has broken the social contract between parents and schools
No, that was the doctors
dude187··on United flight descends 28,000 feet in 8 minutes for ‘pressurization issue’
Because most of the time the reason for an issue like this is maintenance, or pilot and/or crew error. Both of which are mostly guided by airline policy and training.
dude187··on Why has a useless cold medication been allowed on shelves for years?
There's no solution to drug use. There's only acceptance of this unwavering human reality.

Now all the junkies on the street corner? Lock them up

> Facebook has been a tool for genocide.

This is very surprising news to me. What genocide?

dude187··on The Decomposition of Rotten Tomatoes
Even better example in the "You might also like" list in Grandma's Boy: https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/grandmas_boy

15% tomatometer, 85% audience score.

Sure it's a dumb stoner comedy, but it's an _amazing_ one. Being "dumb" is half the fun, but of course that translates into "more gross than comedic" and "lazy and unrewarding"
