I found out at a previous position that the best way to get my work done was to be short with people. In that case they wouldn't bother me, and I had more time to do my work.

Talking with a therapist is like talking to a lawyer. You need to tell them everything no matter how embarrassing or terrible it is. That's the only way they can truly help you.

There is no native client. You can use the features through the browser.

There is also a plugin for Rclone, but that's a 3rd party, reverse-engineered app.

This is all you really need to know about people's car payments:

You can find this all over YT. It's insanity. For the record, my wife drives a 2019 Camry. I drive a 2012 Fiesta. Both paid off. I only have the Fiesta because my sister wanted to sell it and it was a good deal for the times where my wife and I both need to drive. We were a one-car family for a few years.

There are people in my hometown that have car payments higher than their mortgage payments.

DES is symmetric key cryptography. It doesn't rely on the difficulty of factorizing large semi-primes. It did use a 56-bit key, though.

Public key cryptography (DSA, RSA, Elliptic Curve) does rely on these things and yes it's a 4096-bit key these days (up from 1024 in the older days).

I was able to import my Keep data into Standard Notes. It's encrypted and free.

Sure he didn't want to help his children with college, but strangers are going to notice him more due to the car he's driving and you can't put a price on that.

Fry: Sorry, I'm not here to buy.

Car Dealer: I understand, and it's wonderful that you don't care whether anyone questions your sexual orientation.

Fry: I care! I care plenty! But I just don't know how to make them stop!

Car Dealer: One word: Thundercougarfalconbird.

Came here to say this. Western European accents are fun, quirky things. Accents from what our President would call "shithole countries" do not get the same respect.

My understanding is that turning off and on a diesel engine is not great for it or something like that. Sorry, my grandpa was a mechanic and I'm half remembering something he said.

I don't know if I'm hardcore or not, but I've never had a Reddit account.

 

Reporters gathered at the scene noted that by “putting [his] body on the line,” this particular lawmaker apparently just meant standing at the back of a quiet group and playing online chess on his phone.

 

I'm sorry to all the trans people who live in Ohio and might visit here that have to deal with our shitty politicians.

From the article: The new law will require K-12 and college students at public and private schools to use bathrooms and locker rooms that match their sex assigned at birth. It also bans multi-occupancy gender neutral restrooms and prevents transgender students from sharing overnight accommodations with peers of the same gender.

 

Of interest is that Coy was out on bond, which was revoked after the guilty verdict. The FOP and the defense lawyer both think that it's unreasonable for an officer to know a suspect has a weapon before shooting them.

 

Not the Onion, but still great satire.

 

Ohio actually has a law that says if you legally change your name within the last 5 years, it has to be on the petition. In the article it mentions that there is no place for a previous name (dead name in this instance) on the petition, and the Secretary of State’s candidate guide doesn’t mention this requirement at all.

Apparently other trans candidates had their petitions accepted with no problem.

 

Looks like the Senate bill has gotten better. There is some good and some bad. They're cutting back on home grow and max potency for extracts. They're expunging all convictions on possession of 2.5oz or less, and I think most importantly, allowing people to buy from medical dispensaries for recreational use. Right now, it's legal to possess, but illegal to sell. This should fix that loophole.
