Draft dodging piece of shit tries telling me, a left leaning veteran of the US Marine Corps, that I am vermin...on veteran's day. Yeah, get fucked, asshole.

There were two races in my local school district that I just voted on. I don't even have kids of my own, but it's important to me that the next generation gets the best education possible. Since I didn't know any of the candidates, I was digging up their backgrounds and endorsements and a couple of them were proudly affiliated with "Moms for Liberty"...and that is an automatic 'nope' from me. That group is a toxin with a carefully chose name to sound reasonable. They aren't.

What's the strategy in that? Claiming she was never his attorney forfeits what shreds of privilege might be left of their communications and is also one less person he can blame "advice of counsel" on.

76 down, ten thousand more to go.

I had no idea they are still pulling up remains.

The US has already spent millions on search and rescue (it surpassed 1.2 million even before the wreckage was found).

Anyone else love that the ultra rich can book quarter million dollar trips on ridiculous vehicles and then still cost the taxpayers millions.

If you are wealthy enough to book a trip into space or to the bottom of the ocean, then you need to be paying (in advance) for whatever resulting expenses might come out of that....or be required to carry the insurance that will cover it. It's stupid that taxpayers have to pay for this and that the Coast Guard is STILL AT IT...racking up more costs.

Bullshit. He's not 'out of money'...he's 'out of the money he's willing to part with'. Big difference.

They need to find his secret stashes of cash and make sure it goes to the people he owes.

The Florida statute of limitation on collecting back taxes is 3 years.

Rep Moskowitz's idea is so fantastic, that I'd propose they look back 3 years and collect back taxes also.

Corporations should be held responsible for the emissions caused by their employee's commuting.

This would really change the discussion about return to office.

They must have done a cost/benefit analysis and came to the obvious conclusion that having to build multiple variants would be more costly than the profit they'd have earned by continuing to gouge all the non-EU consumers on proprietary cables and junk.

The world owes the EU a debt of gratitude for forcing apple compliance on this one.

Probably over diagnosed by people self-diagnosing. Probably significantly under diagnosed officially/clinically.

And the above is true for a LOT of conditions, not just ADHD.

This was my first attempt at making a seeded bread (using caraway seeds to give it that traditional Jewish rye bread flavor).

Came out really nice...flavor reminded me of the kind of bread I'm used to getting in the deli.

It came out so good that I (obviously) had to immediately run to the store and pick up some sliced corned beef to make some corned beef sandwiches.

The basic make-up was; 75% bread flour, 25% whole dark rye, 73% hydration. Oh yeah, and 75% of the liquid I used was actually dill pickle juice from a near-empty jar of store-bought dill pickles. It's been hot here, and I don't have air conditioning, so I used cold packs from the freezer to keep my fermentation bowl chilled in order to stretch out my bulk-fermentation time to 9 hours.

Hopefully the prosecution saves this video and presents it at this douchebag's first, second, nth, parole hearing.

There's already a link to the vid talking about the utter bullshit and corruption surrounding the McD's ice cream machines posted in this thread, but here's a resource I haven't seen posted yet: an online tracker to find out if your local McD's ice cream machine is working or broken right now.

When watching regular youtube vids using a web browser, you control the volume level of the video using the volume control in the bottom left of the video.

When watching youtube shorts, there's a speaker button that mutes or unmutes the video, but there seems to be no way to set the volume level. Am I missing something or does youtube just not include that feature for shorts?

It's easy enough to look at https://[instance]/instances and see which instances a particular instance has blocked.

But in the cases where an instance hasn't completely blocked another instance but has blocked specific communities on other instances...where can I see/find that?

So far, I've found that reading and parsing the modlog will reveal that if you are willing to search for it manually, but is that the only way?

My starter is already quite sour and full of character, so if I use more of it, I'm directly adding those flavors sraight into the dough, but by using more starter it will result in less fermentation time, and less proofing time, which means less sour and less character developed through fermentation and proofing.

On the other hand, if I use less starter, the dough is starting off with less of that initial flavor and character, but the lower starter amount means longer fermentation and proof times, which means more character in the final product.

So which is more impactful to the flavors of the final loaf? The extra initial starter, or the longer fermentation and proof times?
