The easiest thing is to buy staples to use them FIFO. That way, you're not stuck with 100 lbs of honey, flour, or such.

Just moved out of CA. Went through Loma Prieta, Camp Fire, and numerous power outages. The other likely natural disaster is a megaflood like 1861-2.

Be prepared. - scouts motto.

Anyone who's been through several natural disasters or lives in the northern midwest already should take reasonable preparedness in stride.

Apple has always be proprietary and always will. Apple II and Macintosh Plus days, they sold all their own peripherals.

I had a Dell XPS 13 1645 that had a great display, but everything else about it was awful.

Well, in reality, you can't be a purist or you'll end up with nothing. The Lenovo T480 is solid and has two batteries.

I support this message. :)

Coincidentally, I just moved to Austin and am rebuilding my hot sauce collection. Does anyone else have an absurd, hoarder stash of spicy substances in glass bottles? Any tips on sourcing quality hot sauces locally?

PS: at a long gone sushi place in Capitola, I took the "satan roll" challenge and asked for seconds. Although I got an employee monogrammed/embroidered polo shirt and scared most of the Japanese waitresses, I wouldn't consider either an accomplishment.

Rx only. I've taken it for weight gain from mirtazapine along with statins for familial hypercholesterolemia. IF is better but it leads to reduced energy levels, increased aggression, reduced concentration, and is inconvenient.

The rich get richer by taxing the poor and using the government as their personal socialist piggybank.

You misspelled a hateful, discriminatory word. Maybe you could do the world a favor by sticking to facts and policies, not people's appearance and attributes?

A few corporations have replaced public commons, leading to inverted totalitarian rule by fiat with an illusion of alternatives.

Furthermore, the "liberals" nowadays differ markedly from the liberals years ago who wanted to and encourage debate. Instead, the circular firing squad keeps looking for the next victim to shout-down, take offline, and ignore completely because that's their strength: demolition.

There are competing tyrannies in every society: old/young, rich/poor, individual/society, etc.

If regulatory capture weren't a big enough issue, how about some nice, manufactured astroturfing and mental gymnastic rationalizations to cheat employees? Hurray for "disruptive" startups that can buy laws with saturating media with half-truths. Let's not forget Lyft and Uber's business model is to socialize the costs of a taxi business, including vehicle acquisition, maintenance, and deprecation onto the drivers. How is that anything other than stealing from what would otherwise be taxi drivers with economic slavery volunteerism?

PS: Hello from Colorado so far. Bye CA, thanks for all of the earthquakes, fires, and power outages.

Analyzing data collected over time to see how shocks degrade .

Razor-blade economies. It's most consumers who suck because they didn't wise-up to DRM, giveaway printers, ink drying-up, and expensive ink and instead get a used flagship laser printer. Convenience store vs. Costco or Staples Business Advantage.

Agreed. A smart, pragmatic economist pilloried for trying to rescue a country strip mined by vampiric corporatists doesn't make any sense except perhaps when someone had an agenda to shovel and/or is tribally against exploring some ideas because the current order works for them.

Fast, constraint-based layout as a simple rules language with optional layout handlers and calculations provided by code.

As an example application, it would be cool to have a vehicle know when its shocks need to be replaced or if they are too far out of specification, just from monitoring suspension arms' angle sensor/s.

Yo, your car's shocks need replacing. It is currently underdamped and going to bounce around like a Ford Fiesta in an LA earthquake.

Hey buddy, those pricey tuner shocks are problematically over-damped which will lead to a rough ride, wear issues, and handling problems.

Let's not lose nuance about the scales of "mistakes" about Transcendental Meditation or bell bottoms with taking and placing children in concentration camps (places where people are kept against their will, but not killed) when beliefs and choices reveal fundamental attributes about a person such as their ability to be manipulated, willingness to ignore criminal behavior, and acceptance of scapegoating as a panacea.

Does forgiveness forget, condone, or excuse reprehensible behavior? If not, then how do we punish brutal malice that suddenly becomes normalized?

As not Godwinnian, how do we forgive the next Nazi supporters?

Also, perhaps these times provide a unique opportunity to identify who are truly awful human beings?
