Fetched it. Started it. Did a really nice job fetching my whole health record from insurance co & has a wide array of compatible providers. Decent presentation of repeated test results. It’s got a bunch of areas “not implemented yet,” but it’s a decent way to visualize the records. Probably even better if you have health records from multiple providers.
They do care that I wear clothes. Ain’t nobody’s day improved by seeing more of my skin.
IKR. An endless supply of real-world adjacent McGuffins, stored in secure locations, with justification for plenty of guards, and none of them are “nuclear codes,” “war plans,” or “drugs.” It’s a great way to keep doing familiar and popular game mechanics with novel narrative, just by picking a different cultural reference.
This seems most likely. Georgia isn’t a great place for residential rooftop solar, because power rates here are only $0.086/kWh, a lot of residences are buried in trees, and it rains 1 day in 3. But the people who are interested are mostly going to be Democratic-ish, anyway. The red state core is more interested in backyard, coal-fired generators.
ETA: Ironically, QCells recently expanded their solar panel plant in Georgia.
That’s ridiculous. Qatar holds like a billion or two in US Treasuries, which isn’t even a minute’s worth of trading volume. Japan, China, UK, all closer to a trillion, would be a serious threat. Even UAE at $100B. But Qatar?
No, if anything this is payback for the nice airplane Qatar gave to “Trump Library.”
Safe deposit box is exactly the right size to hold a 3.5" HDD. Or several. I keep a backup Yubikey there too, because I love the physical token 2FA, but I’m pretty sure I’m going to lose it.
And it’s not new: the whole reason they have body cameras is all the times that 3rd party recordings proved them to lie and perjure.

It’s not that he thinks he’s above the law, he thinks he is the law. He’s “hired” people at the DOJ to do his bidding and picked judges to approve it. Same way he’d hire a painter to paint the walls gold.
Came to say this. I recall especially the books private, paramilitary “marching clubs” being turned into law enforcement, which feels a lot like how the Proud Boys and 3% have fallen out of the media at the same time as ICE has co-opted their tactics.

The whole of US political commentary 1935-1939 feels very relevant today.
[US] I have a z-wave network of Zooz Zen04 power-monitoring plugs and Minoston MP21 non-monitoring plugs. Automatically set themselves up by scanning the little QR code, Haven’t had any network drops or device failures in…3(?) years. One Zooz Zen15 high power, monitoring device occasionally (every few weeks) glitches and reports an spurious, instantaneous 5-20 kWh energy consumption
Progressives need messaging and a concise platform. ‘Fix housing, healthcare, inflation, immigration, monopolies, LGBT rights, income inequality, unemployment, gerrymandering, climate, education…’ Everyone who’s even capable of listening past 4 objectives knows they’re not all going to happen and assumes that means they’re all bullshit.
I’ve really been liking “Tax wealth not work” but I’ll take anything stronger than “return to normalcy.”
He reasoned that some precedents were simply “something somebody dreamt up and others went along with.”
Is he admitting this is how he writes his opinions?
You’re not getting downvoted. ChatGPT is getting downvoted, and you just happened to be in the way.

Worth it. Phantom Liberty’s not bad, either, although I waited for it to go on sale.
I mean, it’s not the gaming revolution it was hyped as, but the storylines are all good, the mechanics are fun, and for $20, you’ve almost nothing to lose.
You don’t even need to learn HTML to do it. Any word processor will ‘save as HTML,’ but the markup should be straightforward enough for anyone considering selfhosting. CSS can be a real rabbit hole, but browser default styles aren’t awful.
Sounds like this is a good opportunity to learn something about yourself. It sounds like you don’t have any immediate needs for this windfall and it sounds like you don’t have strong desire to spend it frivolously. That’s good. Maybe you’re looking for an excuse to spend it frivolously. A lot of young people, given a big wad of cash, will rush out and spend it on some aspirational thing or experience - generally something that’s been all over media, or that their favorite influencers have raved about - then be left with the thing, which isn’t as cool after a few weeks or months as it seemed, or the memories. That pile of money came easy, left easy, so it doesn’t feel any different to be without it. That’s a trap known as the hedonic treadmill.
You can do this experiment on yourself: take some of that gift - enough to feel like “a lot” to you - and get yourself a nice bit of bling. Something you’ve had your eye on for a while, but never thought was realistic. Write down why you chose that thing and maybe a 1-10 scale of how much you think you’re going to enjoy it. Come back to that page in six months.
But I would definitely put most of it into some broad-market index/mutual fund, whatever’s available in Sweden. Making saving/investing part of your money habit early in life is a hell of a lot easier than trying to change bad habits later. And I don’t think your sis/BIL will offer you retirement the way they did your parents.
The short answer is: any amount of money is ‘worth’ investing.
$10k at 6% for 40 years is $100k. That might let you retire a couple years early. Conventional wisdom, among people, let’s say 40+ years old, is going to focus on retirement, wishing they’d started saving earlier, and the incredible power of 40 years compound interest.
At 19, though? You’ve probably got college and the potential for student debt coming up. Your first car. The down payment on a house. All of those things can be considered “investment,” too. They might have much better benefit to you, both in the short term and the long term. Or, if your BIL is ready to drop $15k as ‘pocket money,’ maybe you have enough family support that none of those things will be a concern. Hell, maybe you have enough family support that working a job from which to retire isn’t even a concern.
This is a marshmallow problem. Do you want to buy a car, take a fantastic trip somewhere, or just gamble like a big shot right now, or would you rather have less college debt, buy a nicer house, sooner, or retire earlier? Nobody else can tell you what you’ll enjoy more.
Cunt got shot. Shit happens. Kids in america get shot daily and no one gives a fuck.
Right wing nutjobs don’t give a fuck when kids get shot because it’s not their kid. Just some anonymous nobody(s) that are probably forgotten before they’re done typing “Thoughts and prayers.” Charlie Kirk was a person. He was approved of. He had ideas. They knew his name, if not any of his actual ideas. You can’t just go around insulting, much less shooting, actual people.

Are you sure the ISP will delegate a /56? Mine supports prefix delegation, but will only give a /64, and it seems like subdividing that ¿into /72s? would be questionable.
