Dear subway. I'm vegan, I can't eat what you sell. Stop advertising to me please.

Normal people would get it. Like you can't hope to sell a dildo at church.... But if you advertised correctly, you could sell dildos to people who want dildos!

Like by the side of the road next to a porn shop, you could advertise there. But okay what if you used to sell dildos a lot but then one of your customers wanted something different? Stop trying to sell them dildos! They want beads! Its still a dildo looking thing but ultimately, it's different.

So could you guys please add a tofu or seitan or beans option? Would that hurt? I fucking go to the malls with my wife and kids. Sell them the meats, sell me the fake meats. Is that too much to ask? Like my current only option is a side of fries if I go to McDonald's. Burger king gets it! They got the Vegan option.

And for fuch sakes, could your vegan option not be an empty salad? I hate that. Give me a biggy option with flavors. I'll eat healthy at home. I want olive garden infinity salad with croutons... But could you add Vegan pasta and mushrooms? Figure something up! I'm hungry!

When replacing a component you select the component to be replaced, then it gives you a useless list of parts you have open. Usually you want to replace one screw for another... Library parts. No matter just remember in your mind what part it was. I mean you have a computer, but use human memory because the UI won't let you pick something already in the assembly for example and good luck trying to copy paste. Using PDM, it drops you into the file manager... But if you want parts from the PDM system, why not use the specialized sear menu which is a separate click away? Sure, you could just type the name of the part, but nah, lets have this extra blocking menu, and then type the part.

I suggest to go to chat GPT and have it barf a new UI.

It was in the name all along!

The challenge:

Control a TV or other IR device via a non-circuit based device powered by a candle for IR source. Batteries not allowed.

You can use a candle, paper, cardboard, plastic, lenses, aluminum cans etc. All hand made unpowered and rudimentary materials allowed.

You may obtain the ir message by any means including a detector, DAC, etc system. But once you have your code, those devices cannot be used.

OK you read the headline.

Imagine if Caliber had an AI tool that trained itself on all its books such that a user could ask a question regarding those specific books. And then extrapolate. Imagine if anyone anywhere could then ask questions to your local AI and get answers without actually sharing your books.

Right now I host my own Caliber server but I don't even know if I can search a term and get a particular book that contains thar term. I think it can search the title and metadata. I'm probably wrong. But the point is that it could be so much more. And it could circumvent the copyright laws that have always held back knowledge.

Like maybe my car broke down and I could ask IA why and how to fix it. Then it would start asking for the make and model and what sort of sounds it made. It would then search forums, our books and formulate an answer composed in the form of a book specifically written for me about my car's particular problem and how to solve it. Maybe better just a speech that you could listen to while fixing the car step by step...."now look a little to the left and you'll find a large box with 3 screws...."

It would be awesome to have that locally for my books and have access to everyone else's knowledge in books too.

Google is not entitled to my personal banking information or any other PII! WTF if I go to a store and want to buy I will.

C'mon Republicans...tell us who can go in grayhound bus restrooms please.

It has good texture that resembles meat. Is it actually lab grown meat? Is it mushrooms? Is it some kind of vegetable gelatine glued mushroom vegetable mix? It's by far the closets thing yo meat. I love mushrooms though, its my new vegan growth stepping stone.

Which cut line is correct? Don't know, both sides are screwed twisted beyond belief. This is the start cut, the first 2.5" inches are for kid's projects.... Another chance at loosing a finger or two. The worse part is that these were the best picks of the day. Every other 2X6 (1.5x5.5 for the non-retarded among us) were worse splintered, bent, twisted. They need to dry the wood slowly in a well spaced stack. I wouldn't wish any of this wood on anyone for anything.

Summary courtesy of CantStopPoppin:

On February 1, 2025, a disturbing campaign of surveillance began targeting a Spokane family. According to firsthand accounts, ICE agents started shadowing the family nearly two months before the dramatic incident. In a calculated move, one of the agents even pretended to hit the family’s parked car. This staged accident was designed to give them a pretext to detain the husband on the spot while investigators “looked him up” as part of their covert operation.

Then, on April 30, 2025, the situation escalated dramatically. ICE agents arrived at the Diaz home without a warrant and refused to properly identify themselves. In the ensuing chaos, Martin R. Diaz—a devoted business owner, long-time U.S. resident of over 33 years with no connection to any gangs—was brutally tackled and restrained right outside his home. Witnesses report that this aggressive intervention was the culmination of a meticulously planned operation that had been in motion for weeks.

After the violent confrontation, Diaz was swiftly transported to a high-security facility in Northern Idaho, a detention center known for hosting individuals with links to extremist groups, including members of the Proud Boys. The combination of prolonged stalking, deceptive tactics, and forceful detention has raised significant questions about ICE's methods and the apparent disregard for due process.

A TikTok video capturing parts of these unsettling events has gained widespread attention for showing the shocking tactics employed by the agents. You can view the TikTok coverage here.

This incident has ignited fierce debate among civil rights advocates, community leaders, and legal experts, as many call for a thorough investigation into ICE's practices. As the community seeks answers and accountability, this case serves as a stark reminder of the potential consequences when law enforcement agencies overstep established legal boundaries.
