Some sad news. The nice man living quietly outside next to the downtown Cville post office, Richard Underwood, has passed. I know I would have wondered what happened if he were suddenly gone, hence the post. He was always kind and overly polite every time I spoke with him. RIP, Richard.

sounds like heat shield rattling. near the transmission. only happens at very low torque and rpms (like when accelerating slowly in a residential area)

reading jeep forums to try to diagnose what might be causing rattling at low rpms and am dismayed to discover that the space of potential rattles that i am not yet experiencing is essentially infinite

I still wonder if A12 marks the dawn of the wicked or the twilight of the good.

assuming your primary actually involves voters and not some weird shit where the team that does the funkiest dance on the south side of the gymnasium wins or some shit

this person won the primary, but are they electable?

well i dare say they are probably more electable than the person who lost it

Poll: Primary voters prize ideology over electability as their parties get low marks A higher share of Democratic voters than Republican voters prioritize backing primary candidates who can win, but poll respondents say it's complicated.

"electability" is such a dumb concept. if you win an election, you are by definition able to win an election.

Claude and OpenAI being used to guide a war that leads to their own demise would be in some dark way extremely funny

Anyways, I have once again transgenderly crossed the US border without a hint of friction or difficulty, save for the minor baggage delay and lack of Global Entry.

A beginner's guide to improving your digital security This 8 item to-do list will help you improve your security, understand why you should do each task, the limitations of these tools, and what not to do.

I am loathe to tell people what not do without giving them some useful advice for what they should do instead. If you are relying on Proton for "secure email" please read my security 101 guide for what to do instead and the limitations of all these tools hashman.ca/security-101/

A firm tofu, tricolor tortellini, and a veg or two of your choice, anything works. A little seasoningβ€”Penzey’s Fox Point is my go-to, and maybe some chili flakes if you like the heat.

Mate, you said she has β€œno connection whatsoever to canada.”

I don’t really care about any of the other moral points in this debate but someone who has emigrated to another country and lived for many years with her spouse from said country certainly has more than a passing connection.
