I feel you. We have to come to terms with the fact that we are the minority in this country and that most of our fellow citizens value their own self interest more than the promise of a better system for all Americans.

It’s a bitter pill to swallow. You’re going to resent your fellow Americans. I know I do.

The fact is all we can do now is try to survive and protect those we care about. I think spending energy on contesting the results is a waste of time. If they cheated on a scale that gave them millions of extra votes somebody would have found evidence by now. Truth is we lost. And enough Americans are ok with a convict rapist pedophile narcissistic serial liar being in charge of the worlds most powerful military that we actually are powerless. So that energy should instead be spent on anything we can do to protect those the administration is going to target. Keep your head down. But don’t give up.

I’m currently attempting to peer review those results.

Wool is fantastic for cold weather activity because unlike cotton it still insulates when wet.

I still wouldn’t want to RUN in wool, but it makes up some indispensable parts of my ski kit. And it has been tested!

You can get a thin smartwool or polypro base layer from a ski shop for like $50, even cheaper on sale but it’s the wrong time of year for that. That’s probably all you would need unless you’re planning on running in a blizzard.

When I was in the military a bazillion years ago, our winter running uniform was a beanie to add to our t-shirt and shorts. That was it. If it was SUPER cold (like, below freezing) we’d get to wear sweatpants and a sweatshirt. Then we’d go run 4 miles in the dark. If you got too cold you just had to run faster. :)

That’s how it was in my last house, washer was on the right… That’s how they had the hookups. Built in 2006.

Stop teasing me with best case scenarios.

His real first name is Earvin. Which rhymes with pervin’, so still pretty close.

Now I’m on board.

Not really, otherwise we’d have read a sovcit success story by now.

why is it normal for males to call women degrading things like “female”

I can’t even…

A girl did not write this anyway.

But what if someone hid a Bat’leth inside one of them?

That’s a man who knows his game.

Laugh away! Especially since I didn’t suggest anything!

people would rather deal with all that, then switch to Linux

Most people would rather deal with nothing. Most have a passing familiarity with Windows because they had to use it for work or school. But it’s not like they went out and specifically ‘learned Windows’. Most people just don’t give a shit about how a computer works and want it to just do the stuff they want it to do with as little knowledge required as possible. If they have to let the corpos spy on them, oh well.

For the other 4% of people, there’s Linux!

You must not browse All much then. There’s a community here called LinuxSucks which I ended up blocking because it just wasn’t very funny but holy hell they were on a posting spree the other day.

my Mac

I have no desire to talk about my OS

Cause. Effect.

😀

Because they are wise in the ways of the world.

Bitwarden can be fully self hosted, I’m doing it. My Bitwarden server doesn’t (and can’t) talk to them at all as it has no way to access the internet. They know nothing about my deployment except that I signed up for a free license key.

Huh. Never had an issue even with nice shoes. I guess I just have slippery feet.

I actually do have some joint hyper mobility so maybe that’s why I don’t see the utility of it? Dunno.

I’m surprised so many people here use them. I remember seeing one in my grandparents house in the 80s and thinking it was a relic then.

From dress shoes to hiking boots to sneakers to you name it, I’ve never needed assistance getting a shoe on or off. What is their purpose?
