Only if the money from Russia and/or China and/or Iran dries up.

I went to see Venom and there was a group of people in the row in front of me - almost 10 people, all adults. They brought a toddler that screamed any time a symbiote was on screen. Which was a lot.

Unfortunately, yes. Each season I'm either very disappointed or completely disappointed.

I was thinking along the same lines while watching the trailer.

I'm on the fence about actually watching it though. I'll probably watch the first episode and see if it grabs my attention.

If anything, the closest we have to "good guys" in US politics would be the Bernie Sanders - AOC wing of the Democrats.

Even the most "progressive" Republicans are still backwards thinking bootlickers - "small government" and "states' rights" to enforce their narrow world view.

Afaik you should be able to. You could always try it and check your IP at a dns leak test site.

I hadn't heard of that one - I'll take a look.

"Flirt" is underselling it. Orban is on his knees, shoving Fico out of the way at every chance.

At one point, Grand Island (NY) was proposed as a Jewish homeland. Definitely not enough room.

Definitely way too many people in Utah. The environment here is stressed. Not even talking about the political environment. Already way too many religious extremists.

 

Is there a way to download or otherwise use Brainscape flashcards without paying (imo) high subscription prices for their "brain science"?

I'm going to see what I can do on my own but I'm low skill so any help would be appreciated.

TIA!

Yes! Good news.

Christians - the Romans had it right. Well, most religions that preach that there is only one truth and that all must follow it. Religion is either the instigator or the tool for many things that are wrong in this world - the whole damn Middle East, the Taliban, the US GOP, Russia, sex scandal daily from the Catholic Church and Evangelicals, climate change denial, etc.

Letting people spew their nonsense because it's their "firm belief" is societal suicide and we are watching it happen.

 

I bought a Grom about 3 months ago - my first bike.

I love it, except for the mirrors. I drive a lot on one lane roads and not being able to get a quick glance before turning my head is driving me nuts.

I'm guessing bar end would be best but trying to find good reviews (that is, not LLM BS or not so subtle marketing disguised as blogs, etc) has been challenging.

I would love to hear what y'all have to say.

 

I bought a pair of hypoallergenic pillows a couple of weeks ago and immediately started having a reaction to them. I washed them and no change.

I looked at what they're made from and I think it might be the Lyocell Tencel in the cover - made from eucalyptus trees.

Everything else about them is the same - afaik - as my other pillows.

Anyone else experience this or know anything about it?

 

I've been lurking here for a while, trying to learn and set up my own stuff. I'm starting off with music. I have a few thousand files in different formats and plenty of duplicates.

I already have an Emby server set up and it works very well.

However, is there a music manager that will help me find and eliminate duplicates?

I'm using Linux Mint and I'm still figuring out how to set up the various users and groups so that the software can access where my music is stored.

I'm thinking Lidarr but - as mentioned - something about setting up users and a media group and doing the permissions is not clicking.

For Emby to work, I've made the music directory a shared location and opened guest access.

Any pointers to step by step guides on any of this would be very helpful as well.
