Ayy, that’s my senator! I’ve been calling him and Andy Kim telling them we need them to fight back. Well, here we go. Proud of my great state and while maybe I don’t always see eye to eye with my politicians, I think NJ has been getting better.

Yes, but the surge is for Ukraine and Europe is gearing up to defend itself. It’s easier for Ruzzia to take out community broadband than it is satellites in orbit around earth.

Wow thank you for the explanation! That made it very clear.

I haven’t tried their wireless mice, only wired. I would say their quality is on par with the good mice that I have tried. I’ve used a few Razer mice, SteelSeries, Logitech, Zowie, and Finalmouse now. It is one of the 3 I haven’t had issues with (I will never buy another Razer or SteelSeries mouse), and only upgraded because I wanted wireless. I bought my Glorious maybe 5-6 years ago. I wholeheartedly recommend Glorious as I think it hits a perfect value unless things have changed with their wireless variants or with time.

I just like how mature the gaming mouse market has gotten, and I do not buy mice that require their manufacturer driver/ software.

Glorious, Zowie, and now Finalmouse (I bought into the hype but I genuinely do like the mouse I got) have all served me well and don’t require any proprietary software.

What are these apps and websites? Really struggling to dump Amazon…

Damn! What a sick all season beast! I love it!

I wanna see pics of this!

Still rocking my kindle keyboard. Great little device, however I would love a backlit screen and usb c port for charging now. I’d actually like it to be a bit more multipurpose for reading and annotating pdfs (I read quite a bit of spec sheets for work) so I am looking at remarkable/boox but only if my company allows me to expense it.

My wife and I have 6 month old twins… we’re both only children too. We are so lucky that my mother in law moved to our town as soon as we told her. Both of my parents are disabled, and cannot assist. Also, my wife getting the 12 weeks fmla / baby bonding was fine, but not great. I got nothing for paternity leave from my office and took two weeks of pto when they were born. It was and still is rough. If we didn’t have MIL around, we’d be in a real tough spot…

I like the wild ones! It’s so refreshing having men and women in the same podcast together. Emily is so thoughtful and brings a different point of view to the conversations.

So I just built myself a new computer, and I am running Nobara. So far, so good! I was wondering, how do I enable that biscuit theme? It looks like that Hyprland thing does not work for me. Sorry I am terribly a noob at Linux.

What a nice public service! It’s the little things that make cycling better.

This piques my interest, however with absolutely horrid experiences with Hyundai/kia dealers in the past, I have my reservations. Especially as an ev is not as easily user serviceable compared to a traditional gasoline variant.

Will wait to see, but really excited for the rivian r3. I’m glad low cost commuter evs are becoming a thing… I’m just waiting for Toyota/honda to create a compelling offering.

Ooh, haven’t heard of this. I’ve been using a regular deodorant without anti perspiration the last few months and… it’s ok. But now that it’s getting hotter, I reach for the old aluminum stick if I have to go into the office.

I bought this (impulse buy, but on sale!) and we’ll see how it goes! My wife will tell me if it’s not working :)

Heck yeah I would love to never use the terminal. The terminal is the biggest roadblock for me adopting Linux. I never, ever want to open it. If I have to open it, Linux has failed for me as a windows replacement.

I want to try Linux again, and I have dipped my toes many times, but the terminal is the major block for me, a slightly above average pc user.

You don’t really plant them, you get eggs on little strips of paper that you hang on your plants. Super easy!

Lacewing! Super beneficial insect! I try to grow them every year in my garden. They eat aphids and other pests on plants. It’s a friend :)

If you’re in the US, I have gotten good results/ seeds from ptlawnseed.com. They have a bunch of different options and tell you what works well in your climate zone!

I need to build a new pc soon. Mine is currently 10 years old and it’s showing its age. I just don’t know what motherboard manufacturer to go with! I’m currently using an asus mobo that has been great and solid for a decade, but… I want to support a good company.
