The article puts the "overwhelmed" statement in auotes but doesn't attribute it to anyone, & later in the article states > the rise in respiratory illnesses has not resulted in patient loads that exceed hospital capacities.

Passing on misleading/clickbait headlines should be discouraged IMO. Also, why are articles being posted without any comments or justification/reasons for sharing the article?

I'm not sure I understand - what would you call Banjo-Kazooie? Or even Super Mario 64? What do you mean by "3d platformer"? Like "open world" kinda game?

I swear I've seen this before, like pre-YouTube or circa 2001. i even remember the woman only lasting a few minutes on the forum that was scrutinizing it because she didn't seem to be aware of trolls. if this is a recent interview then maybe it was done as some sort of homage. only way i would have come across it back then was if someone threw up a link in general chat on pirat4x4.

I'd say 400% + is a more realistic cost of buying components local vs. online. Regardless, I miss having the local option even tho I can actually get most parts delivered faster than it used to take me to drive to Fry's & back.

The only time I've ever witnessed this was opening nite of "Star Wars" in La Puente/West Covina area ~ 45 years ago. Back then that was the title of the movie (not "A New Hope" Episode IV).

Informacam has a similar "chain of custody" goal but was developed for existing devices. Guardian Project was involved with CameraV, the android version for mobile devices. It looks like Proofmode is now the active project & it's available for ios as well as android. https://proofmode.org/

instead of the majority of users having to create blocks (multiple opt-outs) couldn't this be set up so users that want bot posts sign up or opt-in somehow?

After reading the "issues" discussion from w weeks ago, this is just an idea at this point. The simplemobiletools fork was a mock up for something that sounds like its very much in the planning/ideas stage. you can also go to fossify.org to see another mock up that does nothing right now. You could message one of them, but I think maybe its some MIT software team / group & their just tossing ideas around for a foss hub of sorts.

Well even if it doesn't bring about the 2nd age of steam for mankind, it should at least be inspiration for a new RP genre - the merging of lasers + evaporation = Cyber + Steampunk?

Have you tried using Tasker to schedule QRalarm for you?

I remove permissions for notifications from all apps that I am able to except for sms/text & phone calls.

I apologize - It was my poor attempt at humor, I forgot where I was. My comment was a reference to "The Detectorists".

Here's the guardian project repo https://guardianproject.info/fdroid/repo?fingerprint=b7c2eefd8dac7806af67dfcd92eb18126bc08312a7f2d6f3862e46013c7a6135 Check in fdroid settings how you flagged "show available updates", "show incompatible versions", & "include anti-feature apps". Also make sure to update repositories. FYI - I show "Tor Browser for Android" from the Tor Project Ver 102.2.1-Release(12.5.6) 9/29/23.

This was actually done for entire blocks during WWII, specifically in Southern California where aerospace design & mfg companies where located. The covers were painted to look like dirt lots or undeveloped spaces to hide the actual buildings & roads from potential aerial assaults.

I love mango especially because it can be frozen & it doesn't breakdown the texture nor the flavour. It one of the only frozen fruits I can get from grocery store that I can eat out of the package (vs. most frozen fruit is only good for smoothies etc IMO). My favorite is plums, but only from my granma's tree. Nothing sold in stores would ever be labeled "plum" if it were up to me. I also like pineapple alot. Apples, oranges, peaches, while sometimes store bought you might get a good one once in a while, homegrown (or local....basically fresh) fruit has no equal. But i practically live off fruit except during the 3 winter months.

it's an android app that lets you automate almost anything on your phone/android system. downsides are it's a pay app, not foss, and fairly complicated to set up at first. upsides are it is almost unlimited with what you can automate. looks like there is a free trial. might be a lemmy-instance for it, (there's a reddit sub) disclaimer; i haven't used it for a while now on older android releases.

I've been curious about this subject (increasing or decreasing the planet's mass) & wanting a real fact based explanation. The fact that man has built structures that had a measureable impact to Earth's tilt indicate that there is a calcuable figure that represents the effect that the cumulative mass being removed from close to Earth's core/surface & shifted into orbit or pushed out of the planet's gravitational field has/will have. I've got no idea ehat the impact would be, but at some point reducing the mass of a spinning object has to result in changes. How many non-returning ships sent off-planet does it take to reduce the gravitational field of Earth? Does it impact Earth's orbit around the Sun? And inversely, how much off-planet mined materials brought here before ...idk - Earth's gravity is increased? Assuming the # is "real", shouldn't we be determining how much can be mined on the moon & brought here? Better now than waiting until the next environmental crisis headlines read "Moon weight loss has lead to extreme ellipse-ing of it's orbit: expect even more monumental tidal extremes!". Again, I don't know what the real impact would be, I made this last bit up for dramatic effect/illustrate my question.

Is this the mosaic that Andy found several dislocated tiles from? We never got to see it because the foreman / site coordinator had it dug up & disposed of overnite. Andy returned to work to find his dig site & the entire area had been graded/bulldozed.

For a real "first time" user the only suggestion I'd add to this A+ advice is to pick up a cheap set of chisels (&/or carving set). Cheap as in lowest price, quality isn't really critical at this moment. (Harbor Freight, Amazon, etc). This way you can practice sharpening, grind a new base bevel angle, then try wet sanding on glass. You can explore processes & develop your own preferred methods all while having zero worries about messing up your expensive $ quality metal. This is prolly even more appropriate if your aspirations include carving & whittling blades because there are so many different types - unlike the general similarity found from one chisel to the next with only the blade width being different. TLDR: the advantage of having a sacrificial set of chisels/knives stems from being able to continually practice as often as desired & gaining muscle memory etc. thru repetition vs the inexperience resulting from infrequent opportunities coupled with the stress of not wanting to mess up new expensive metal.

fyi "OBD" connector (DLC - Data Link Connector) is a 16pin connector & is supposed to be accessible from drivers seat. This could possibly be the OEM diagnostic port. If so it might be CAN -
