Interesting article, but no real surprise. I think most of what they research was pretty obvious results.

My single experience with hydroponics was with a couple of heads of butter lettuce I got from Instacart. It was tasty -- as good as dirt lettuce.

@catseye3 said in Holy Mackerel.: The card, listed by PWCC Market, was purchased by a private bidder on eBay for $555,988. (Plus $8 shipping.) LOL I like the shipping part. Just put it in the mail and let it go. 5555 Maybe the seller should talk to that Fox News guy to get some tips on how best to not send things through the mail. LOL

It is crazy how much data is out there on me (and everybody else). LOL

Thank you, @jon-nyc. I just want to add that starting from the iPhone X and inclusive of the iPhone SE 2, a non-removable version of that tracker chip is also embedded in your iPhone. Go back to iPhone 8, iPhone SE, or older models if want one without an embedded, non-removable tracker chip.

@jon-nyc said in Twitter moves to Amazon: FWIW Parler wasn't removed for content per se it was removed because it didn't have a sufficient process to monitor it. I understand. If Twitter allows this content, then its monitoring is clearly subject to improvement. I wonder if AWS will consider that.

Very vigorous maritime engineering standards. Link to video

Sounds like he's been at home since last summer.

@jolly at least they're open about it this time.

Even us Minnesoooootans have driven that. It was while kiddo was in undergraduate school. It's spectacular. I hope nobody was going too fast on it that night.

@lufins-dad said in Snow coming: One of these days I will spend a couple of weeks in Buffalo in the winter. I need to see 6 feet of snowfall... We used to get the Buffalo local news when we lived in Ontario. It used to make us feel slightly better about our lot.

@aqua-letifer Not bad. I tried this two years ago on a ski trip (literally for breakfast, I did the whole traditional Irish breakfast...Black pudding, white pudding, fried tomato, baked beans, etc...). It was great. So I saw it yesterday and figured “snow day!”. Not as good this time around. Not bad, just not as good.

Excellent news @Copper That is very exciting to hear that!!

I miss the days of police wading in and swinging batons.

Better have lots of money, if you don't already have your bullets. 9mm asking price recently was $100/box.

@klaus I agree and that point of convergence is the totalitarian state.
