I’d like to hear from people who are living in the region, what specific things Nicholas Maduro did that made him notably bad. I realize that I live in an American media bubble, so the coverage I see is biased.

Their snouts are too long and their eyes are weird. They’re not cute, they’re another cautionary tale about selective breeding like pugs.

When I long press to pull up the context menu so I can save a photo, after I hit save the photo is zoomed in and does not respond to a double tap to zoom out. Is anyone else seeing this issue?

I have to go to a medical office at a hospital for some tests today. Not only does an ostensibly non-profit entity that makes an obscene amount of money from people who are sick or injured have the gall to charge for parking, but they have switched from the method of getting a ticket and paying later to an app that collects your data. I’m so fucking sick of every moment in life being monetized.

I want to start running, and I was going to start with a couch to 5k app. However, every app is either a subscription or wants access to every scrap of data on my phone, which should not be necessary to track my running and play music. Can anyone recommend an iOS app that does C25K without subscription or data mining? I’m happy to pay a one time purchase.

I know this is a little outside the normal scope of this community. However, I think it’s undeniable that a contributing factor to the ideas and behavior of contemporary tech oligarchs is their love of older sci-fi and fantasy literature. Seeing the authoritarian and sometimes even straightforwardly fascist ideals hidden in those works can be helpful in understanding how these people think.

Back in 1973, Rene Vienet, a member of the Situationist International, detourned an entire kung fu film, making “Can Dialectics Break Bricks?” Worth a watch if you have the time.

I’m a noob with sourdough and I have been having a hard time getting information on how to maintain a consistent amount of starter. Is it generally appropriate to discard half and replace that half with fresh flour and water?

Related, is “discard” in any meaningful way different from the starter itself, or are the recipes for discard scones/crackers/whatever just labeled that because you aren’t using the starter for rise?

I started reading this book by Gabor Maté, a doctor who has ADHD. In just the first chapter, I felt seen in a way that I have never experienced with any therapist or psychiatrist I have consulted in almost 47 years.
