Carl Murawski, a licensed electrician, explains that Federal Pacific and Stab-Lok electrical panels represent a serious fire hazard and should be replaced.
Checks and balances. Thatโs the mantra. Thatโs what makes America great. Thatโs the system we deployed to prevent being just another iteration of the British empire. It was never โฆ
anyone want to help me track down an old DOS game from when i was a puppy?
it was an interactive storybook that was jungle book themed, but i don't think it was specifically the Disney jungle book, and it may have had other storybooks bundled as part of the game.
there was a recurring motif or way to control the game via an artist's palette. the different colors on the palette would do different things; i vividly remember shere khan poking his head into the wolf den, clicking one of the paint colors, and suddenly making him wear clown makeup.
it was pretty definitively DOS; i remember my mom having to boot into it specifically and calling it a hassle LOL. it was not a sidescroller at all, definitely aimed at children.
cc @misty , i feel like if anyone could find it, it'd be you.

China is deploying overhead rail-mounted charging robots in parking garages that automatically travel to your car and plug in โ eliminating the need to hunt for a charging spot.
I like the basic idea, but the complexity of the robotic arm version is daunting and I don't like the side-track movement of the dangling cable version.
But if you have a simple single lane track, combined with manually inserted dangling cables ... there's the risk of blocking off the path to a car that needs a charger. Hmm...
This week, it emerged that the Health Secretary Wes Streeting had privately told Peter Mandelson that it would be #morally impossible to vote against the recognition of a #Palestinian state โbecause Israel is committing war crimes before our eyesโ.
The texts entered the public sphere through Streeting leaking some of his own exchanges with Mandelson to the Guardian. They suggest that, privately at least, some Government ministers believed Israel to be violating international law, even while the Governmentโs public position was that it was uncertain.
Streeting has not been disciplined either for the leaking of the messages, nor their contents.
Two statements by Government ministers, one private and one public, appear to acknowledge for the first time that Israel's actions have broken international law

I have the joy of living in a Republican state where I need to verify my ID, and while most sites have just ignored that, there are some that I like visiting that aren't allowing people from my state, so I need a VPN to change my location.

Happy #BlackHistoryMonth! Before the US banned Hawaiian language & culture, Hawaii had true equality for Black people, who prospered & helped build schools, hospitals & started Hawaii's first bowling alley.
The Hawaiian system of worker cooperatives also known as hui challenged the white capitalist system and allowed for common moderate prosperity of all people. Many Chinese specifically married into Hawaiian families hence names like Akana, Akau. Black families such as that of Anthony D. Allen 'Alaniโ, also succeeded and helped build hospitals, schools, and Hawaii's first bowling alley.
Betsey Stockton, born into US slavery, was in possession of the President of Princeton. She was another of many women of color who helped build schools in Hawaii. Hawaii became the most literate country in the world (98%) when Europeans and the US only educated the elites.
Many women of color contributed greatly to Hawaii's success. Emma Na'ea Rooke founded the world's first Universal Healthcare system in Hawaii, raising money on foot. She also helped build academies and a nursing school to staff the hospital.
