I have to admit that I keep thinking, "People are only now catching on that our media is captured by oligarchs?"
in reply to Muse

@Muse I think it sorta snuck up on people, I remember the true independent stations slowly disappearing whether it was a syndication group or becoming part of a smaller network like UPN which I don't think most people noticed until it was too late.

Oh horror, my crypto is down to just under $40… Meh, who cares. For those whom I'm new, a few years ago I picked up $100 of crypto to see what all the hype was. After a few months, I had $225, so I cashed out my original $100. In the years since its hit a low of just under $17 and a few months ago got up to around $75. If it ever actually gets over $100, I'll cash out again, but right now I amuse m'self by watching it go up and down but never back to the original amount.

Ok, first wave of moving those that I followed on my Friendica to here is done. Could've done it automagically I suppose, but considering that my list includes Diaspora and RSS Feeds, I'm not sure how dumping that file into here would've gone. I do have two that oddly can't be followed from here, and a few PeerTube and Pixelfed accounts that I need to decide if'n I feel like continuing to follow, but we'll get to that at some point.

Any how, for those wonder who just followed them, I was @vextaur

The Loops.video spam mitigation service ended up auto-suspending users using VPNs, so I have disabled that.

I've fixed quite a few accounts, if yours is affected reach out to hello at loops dot video via email

Immigration police here in Mexico have started running checkpoints to verify people's paperwork. Only this time they appear to be looking for Americans and Canadians overstaying tourist or temporary resident visas.

Certain long-time residents here, who are used to getting away with crossing back from Tijuana every 6 months, etc., are LIVID to find out that the law applies to them. But as they say, when you're used to superiority, equality feels like oppression.

@jscholes Yeah, one guy I talked with has been here since before COVID, knew there was an amnesty, and thought he could still get it. And all he had to do was book a fucking appointment. Now if he gets caught they’re just going to turf him out, and it’ll be his own fault.
in reply to Matt May

Jesus. I was stressing out mid-application, years ago, about the delay caused by actually getting COVID!

:boost_ok: :boostRequest: Are there any companies that can take a vector file or image and make a rubber stamp for you? Either one that has a built-in reservoir or one you use a separate pad with?

I’ve tried a couple ways with 3D printing (including TPU) or using silicone rubber - they just don’t work well. #stamps

in reply to DeltaWye

I printed my design on paper and then carved it myself but there are rubber stamp engravers. I think they used Vistaprint at one of my jobs for their business stamps. I dunno what sort of file they sent but we had the company logo as a stamp set

For more than six years, the #NTSB has recommended that the #FAA develop guidance to help #pilots identify intoxicated passengers like the one whose actions precipitated the fatal #FlyNYON #helicopter crash in 2018. Now the FAA is passing the buck, as I report for Vertical Magazine. #aviation #safety verticalmag.com/news/urged-to-…

I wish the FAA would follow through on NTSB's safety recommendations... gettign tired of the FAA doing nothing.
in reply to Sam - WiredForFlight

@WiredForFlight I hear you! I did online alcohol server training as part of my research for this story, and honestly resisting this recommendation seems like more work than just pulling together some solid guidance based on all of the information and training that's already out there.

Can any of you digital artists recommend a #drawing tablet with in-built screen?

I'm wanting to be able to work on illustration practice for my writing, but for when I can't be on my PC.

Only caveats:

1. I use #Krita on Linux so I'd rather not have to learn another drawing app. I will if I must.

2. We don't have loads of money, but I can save if it's over what I have saved so far. It looks like there are options <$200.

Thanks.

huion screen tablets are pretty solid and comparable to wacom, except that the price point is way lower :)
Been working on a Kamvas 16 for years now and never had any problems
XP-Pen isnt bad either but i dont have enough knowledge about the built-in screen models

The Trump administration is planning to use artificial intelligence to write federal transportation regulations.

I'm sure things will work out fine. Right? Right?

'Most of what goes into the preambles of DOT regulatory documents is just “word salad,” one staffer recalled the presenter saying. Google Gemini can do word salad.'

Americans always ask, “Why is the world obsessed with us?”

No, no—why is USA obsessed with us?

We’re just minding our business. And you’re here acting like a Karen.

@jgordon I'm not talking about individual Americans. I'm talking about your leaders. Specifically, you elected a government that is always getting into people's business—even when it has nothing to do with you.
in reply to Chris Trottier

@jgordon And to be sure, I don't believe you when you say you don't realize other nations exist because if that were true you wouldn't keep sending troops overseas.

It's not that you don't know. It's that you're purposely ignorant.

And so it begins…
New day, woke up to -7 feels like -17, is it any wonder i took the week off? Any how, to breakfast, hash brown patty in the air fryer, container of overnight oats in a pot of water, summer sausage and Gouda ready for the omelet, beans for the side, and the all important coffee

Trying something new, leaning towards th 70's style 8n wearing a jumpsuit, but like all clothes, the fit leaves something to be desired. Shoulders and upper chest are tight, as is stomach when i sit, the rest is fine. The waist ferls a bit loose, but i typically wear a belt, and wear it tight, so that's likely just me, i mean I've never liked drawstring pants or elastic waistbands either. I swear, i need someone in St Louis who can custom tailor clothes for me ad nothing fits, i mean i think my actual pants size is 39X33 which doesn't exist.

••looks around•• Quiet at this time of night… 0300, what's the pup doing up now? Well, its actually rather normal for me, I often get up to go to the bathroom, or just because, and wind up staying up for 2 or 3 hours, killing time with reading, solitaire and/or porn. Today we're trying something new, I'm basically just starting the day now, munching on some oatmeal, going to make the rest of the breakfast, even coffee, then… Maybe go back to sleep, maybe stay up, dunno.

This is my updated coffee area, just some sign changes, the ones on the shelf? Yeah, those were tossed wherever there was space because they had no way to be hung. So, put up a cheap picture ledge I wasn't using after moving the rise and shine sign up and the coffee sign over… Really should've mounted that one up there in the first place, looks great over there. Addicted to coffee? Nahh, not at all… Its not like there's a hanging basket of coffee pods out of the frame, nor a drawer with another basket of them, coffee pouches and a small amount of already ground coffee.
