Never underestimate the stupidity of law enforcement. When things could just be left alone and everything would turn out OK, officers insist on inserting themselves into the equation, ensuring maxi…
There’s a meaningful push afoot to implement statewide “right to repair” laws that try to make it cheaper, easier, and environmentally friendlier for you to repair the technology you own.…
Found out early that my job will be moving to fully in-person by September which means I need to get in gear and start applying for remote jobs ASAP!
I'd love to break into accessibility work but I'm unsure how. The couple of jobs I've looked at want specific certifications or 5+ years of front-end experience I don't have. During college, I was a student worker for their E-Learning Center and would go through NAU Online BBlearn courses' photos and text to ensure it was accessible. Looking back, I really enjoyed that work and would love to do similar in-depth projects in the future.
With my current job (been at for ~3 years and 6 months), our main language is C# and our main project has creating rest APIs for internal webservices to try and transition away from legacy programs. I've done a single major Angular migration but mostly back-end work.
Five years ago, I was ratioed on the Bird App for saying that the only difference between Netanyahu and Putin was which side of American weapons they were on. That was antisemitic, they said. Netanyahu wasn't genocidal, they said.

A Black friend of mine told me The Simpsons is an interracial family—and he’s right!
Marge has an Afro. Her maiden name is Bouvier. Which means she’s likely a Louisiana Creole.
What’s more, in the Season 21 episode “The Colour Yellow,” Bart and Lisa discover that Homer is descended from Virgil Simpson, an enslaved man who escaped to Canada.
Re last: Christ, every country is jumping on this bandwagon. Remember folks, its not about the children. It was never about the children. How do you ban underage people from anything online? Make every person categorically prove their age. If you think that identifiable data is going away after use, you're hopelessly naive. So how about we make parents actually just...act like parents for once? Source: I'm a data privacy lawyer.
The monetization of life. Turning the wonders of existence into a product. That urge the greedy have when they see a rainbow and wonder how they could claim it, so they could charge people for looking at it. The act, its self, will just anger her, but that logic, that way of thinking, truly, profoundly disgusts her.
A bit of a longshot, but I'll throw this question out here! Anyone remember what sort of 6502 dev board was used for the Scottish Higher Technological Studies around 1991/2?
I remember it had keypad for entering your code as hex, 7 segment displays and digital inputs/outputs for switches, lights, stepper motors...
I remember there was a reference guide for it (folded sheet of A4) with 6502 op codes etc that could be used in the exam too. I binned school stuff many decades ago but curious to see if anyone out there still has anything from all those decades ago.
The main meow.social web frontend has now been migrated to Cerberus
This migration was carried out transparently, without any visible interruption for users.
The next step will be to move the heavier workloads to the new infrastructure. This work will continue in the background, and we will do our best to keep the process as transparent as possible.
Thank you for your patience. 💜 The meow.social Team
So, out here in STL my car is easy to spot for a rather disappointing reason, and that's because I run Bee Friendly plates, the ones that support the Missouri Bee Keepers Association ( @That_One_Guy you should get a set), and apparently they've only managed to move 150 of them.
MO makes it difficult to get specialty plates, while at the same time having a mind-boggling amount of choices, 143 I think it is. Basically you have to donate to the organization, get an emblem usage form from them, and fill out an application, which application depends on the plate. I definitely like how most states do where you just get the plate at the DMV and they cut a check to the organization.
The STL Beekeepers were helping people get these and a driving force behind it happening I think. I'm considering getting some but have this weird thing with avoiding personal plates.
Yeah, they make it easy, the DMV not so much. Does seem a shame how few are out there.
Interesting, worried about personal info, or easily being spotted ? I can't help the latter, so i don't worry about it and i never do vehicle specific or personal stuff, my current plate is a silly job reference that few will get

This house is great for WTFs. Each bedroom has an outlet and a ceiling fan controlled by a light switch. I eas hoping they did it the easy way and used the lamp box to tie everything together, but nope, one cable in the box. So,i decided to next look at the switch, maybe that's the junction, and… Off the top of my head i only know two ways to wire a circuit like this, but they came up with a third, they used a 14-3 Romex cable in the switch box. Umm, i'm trying to think of what they could've done, and drawing a bit of a blank.
the revisionism is insane so many people glorify a past that never was. They just imagine that back then everything was swell and now woman "have to" work. You know who might disagree? the woman of that time. the brave woman who fought tooth and nail for womans rights. It wasn't going swell.
In the last few centuries in europe everyone who was able (this includes children regardless of gender) had to perform hard labour every day for survival
@saxnot The biggest revisionism in the western world is the complete erasure of socialist movement from 19th century that brought the issues of equality between genders, child labor, voting rights and so many other rights we all enjoy and take for granted.
You can barely find a single American who have heard of Rosa Luxemburg. You won't find any person admitting that women received right to vote in Soviet union in 1917 compared to 1944 in France. And all Nordic countries with strong socialist, social democratic movement had this passed years before others.
The "socialist feminism" is defined as an American movement from the 1970s which makes me realize how strongly and well the propaganda affected, even the "progressives" in the west.
My family is watching the Keith David-narrated Leonardo da Vinci documentary. He just told us about how da Vinci's first mechanical invention at age 24 was a device to take bars off windows and break out of a jail cell, invented after he was charged with the crime of having gay sex. Fuck yeah Leo.
