Edibles and tinctures are a thing. I have very severe asthma and will either get a really nasty flare up or go into a full attack with just one whiff, but I’m able to use both without issue.

It works on the web too, I just added a link to it’s GitHub page to my original comment, which links to the other versions

The Voyager app on android let’s you do this

EDIT to add: I just checked and it also works on ios and the web

SteamOS is easy to deal with if you stick to using Flatpak. I found out the hard way when installing yay that since their packages are a little behind, it wouldn’t compile. The problem was either pacman or one of it’s dependencies was out of date according to makepkg. So I tried to update them manually and broke the whole system. Plus SteamOS overrides changes to the root filesystem when it updates, which undos all my hard work tweaking the system, which I find infuriating.

I found Arch Linux to be less maintenance that Debian/Ubuntu, but then again I need to tweak every aspect of my system and both Debian and Ubuntu keep getting in my way. For example Firefox now requires snap on Ubuntu systems, and Debian requires that I maintain my own version of Pipewire if I want decent sound on my earbuds. Also Apt/dpkg does seem to break a lot.

I also had issues with Manjaro and SteamOS due to system packages being a version or two behind vanilla Arch, which breaks things when you install AUR packages. That being said I have used both Garuda Linux and CachyOS and I’ve liked both. They get that balance between not requiring that I setup everything myself, while not getting in my way when I want to tinker.

Some facial recognition tech still works even with a mask

AI can have a positive impact on society, but not in it’s current form. We need things that can help us make sense of large data sets, we also could use things that help automate really tedious, menial tasks. We do not need or want industrial grade slop generators.

When they’re out of cash, they’ll be on the hook for an absolute ridiculous amount of money and they’ll probably just get liquidated

At least ram will be really cheap then. I looked at the prices when considering what to replace my dying steam deck with, and it’s like over $200 for most of it.

WTF

I think the government should only regulate credible threats made with the intent to terrify, with the onus on the prosecutor to prove that the threat meets both criteria. This is how the first amendment is already applied, you can say anything short of yelling bomb in an airport or saying you will kill someone while showing them a picture of their house.

That being said, the government should allow private citizens to sue when speech still harms, but does not meet the criteria for a credible threat, such as; libel, slander, hate speech, or particularly dangerous misinformation. However the government should not be allowed to pursue these cases on their own, only act as mediator alongside a jury. The burden must also be on the accuser to demonstrate such harm.

This way there is still a legal path to restricting hate speech, but with a bar so high it’s only worth going after the most egregious offenders. If you allow the government to define hate speech, then you open a path to censorship of political opinions. On the other hand, if you regulate nothing, you get people screaming bomb in at airports or trying to convince you that drinking industrial bleach can cure almost everything.

Maybe they got Office Depot and Home Depot confused?

Right, it could happen to anyone, but it’s still possible to lower the chance of that happening, or at least limit the damage when it does happen.

To secure your stuff. Hacking and social engineering are both easier than you think and identity theft is devastating. I know most people here already know that, but having worked in tech support, it’s unbelievably common to skip even the basics, not to mention my grandparents who think I’m just paranoid.

Very deep and sub bass. Both travel through the ground more than the air, so not only does it go far and wide, it’s also very hard to block. I can use earplugs for most loud music, but even a combo of earplugs, gun mufflers, and a white noise machine is just rendered ineffective against deep/sub bass. On top of being extremely annoying, it’s also not really good for your health.

I’m confused, how will this accomplish anything if he’s in Germany? Is this just an intimidation tactic? Or do they think they can successfully drag him to Russia?
