Spring is very unpredictable in many places. Could be freezing, could be hot. Could have terrible damaging storms. Maybe all three in the same day. I’d go with October 2nd.

The majority of people in the US don’t have access to busing.

Additionally, Lemmy would be a hostile place if you happened to be a conservative-leaning Linux user. I know quite a few, but they aren’t on Reddit either.

Do you have a source for that? The Wikipedia page about it doesn’t mention it and mentions other sources, which I guess could be tied to the heritage foundation but even clicking through links I couldn’t find any connection.

I’m not saying there isn’t plenty to criticize about the concept and where they place particular individuals. That’s just the first time I’ve heard this claim, and I’m curious about it.

On the political compass subreddit they called them watermelons - green on the outside (libertarian left), red on the inside (authoritarian left). I realize they’re not really left at all, but the authoritarianism is baked in.

I was okay with keyword results. If you knew what you were dealing with in the search engine, you could usually find what you were looking for.

It been a downhill slope that just keeps getting steeper. They’re basically falling off a cliff right now, and their parachute is improving AI.

Thank you for the reply. But check your elevation where you live, if I had any money I’d bet that where you sleep is much higher than 100’ elevation :)

I enjoy coffee but I mostly quit caffeine a few years ago so I don’t need my coffee. I do enjoy a quality water-processed decaf a couple of times a week. I like strong and black, no sweetener.

I’ve owned a few motorcycles and technically I still do but it isn’t running and isn’t a priority this year. I have other things I’m investing in. You can ride anywhere if you learn to ride super defensively and wear quality gear head to foot.I want to come home to my family every time. It’s a ton of fun though and I like to go motocamping.

I like to hike mountains but I’m currently in the eastern US so I only make it to nice mountains about every other year. The Smokies have great challenging hikes but they’re no fourteeners. I know that number doesn’t make sense to metric people. I’ve hiked seven mountains over 14k feet, a few of them more than once. The tallest is Mount Whitney in California, the highest point in the contiguous 48 states. I’d like to travel to climb something taller. I’d like to also climb Mount Rainier even though it’s a little shorter, just for the winter mountaineering. I already own snow shoes, crampons, Ice axe etc. I’m getting older so it’s getting higher on my bucket list.

Do you drink coffee black?

What do you think of motorcycles?

What is the highest elevation you have hiked to?

Yeah, I get paid 1/10th of that and I could do a lot better - and I used to - but I work for a nonprofit I care about. Greed is a hell of a drug.

The author should have quit long ago. Many employees are complicit.

I once was lost but now I am found

I’ve shrunk a bit but I can still get to 6’ with any good pair of shoes or boots. I’ve also figured out height doesn’t matter nearly as much as confidence. I have less of the former these days, but way more of the latter.

Im not saying Trump is 6’3*, he’s clearly not. I myself have shrunk over an inch and I’m younger than him by a generation. But people don’t always measure the same, or try to. I have a friend who is 6’1" who swears he’s 5’11". He never stands up straight. At my tallest I was 5’11 3/4" and you better believe I was giving my measurements all I could hoping I’d get to 6’. My guess is Trump once was 6’3", has shrunk to just a little over 6’, and Newsom is probably closer to 6’4". But without putting a measuring tape to them, what the hell do any of us know?

Right isn’t welcome here at all. I’m center and this place is hostile as fuck.

As someone who has done a bunch of phone repairs with the help of YouTube, assembly isn’t that hard. If they don’t want to assemble them here, it’s completely about profit margins. We should be taking steps to reduce that profit margin. Tax the rich and all that.

Really people who don’t treat him well have no idea what kind of potential nearly-free positive publicity they’re missing out on. Just let the man eat!

There’s no possible way this could go badly.

I watch Joel Hansen on YouTube. It’s happened to him more than once.

Here’s an example
