Saran wrap, then the water.
Don't ask how I know, lol.
I hope nobody suggested pouring water all over their rental cars at night, because that would be awful

What they think they are doing is striking fear into everyone. Instead, this makes me extremely angry and want to fight harder even more.
They know they are producing these images and want to be. Again, either they want to escalate violence or they do not understand humans or both.

Watch this. Share this.
Today at 34 & Park in Minneapolis, a woman tried to drive down the street where a protest had broken out in front of a home ICE was raiding, saying she had a doctor apt to get to. ICE agents busted out her windows, cut off her seatbelt, and pulled her out before arresting her.

I'm less worried about the near future. I believe the blowback against the GOP will be severe (quietly hoping both chambers flip but we'll see). I am far more worried about the long term of how much time it will take to repair everything that is being broken. And how far behind we will be.
Many of you have become drama-addicted doomers, and you seem to think it's important for the rest of us to join you.

Yes, things are bad. But change is within our power. Grow up. Act like sober, responsible adults in a democracy instead of cynical, all-is-lost teenagers.

Now get off my lawn.

Okay. New Tandem OLED has arrived. Its an updated version to my current OLED ( a 3rd generation WOLED) vs LGs new 4th generation Tandem RGB WOLED.

Dual OLEDs are fantastic. But now I need a better dual monitor arm, lol as my current one barely works, lol.

Impulse Christmas purchase. Found a open box (excellent condition) 4th generation OLED monitor for $550. Will be here by the weekend.

Trump set new Kentucky records w/his 64.4%, 2024 win.

The nat'l poverty rate is 10.6%. In Kentucky, it's 16.6%.

Jim Beam employed some 1500 Kentuckians - up til now, anyway.

Congratulations, MAGA, you've scored another big middle finger from your lord and master.
Jim Beam Whiskey will shut its distillery for 2026 thanks to plummeting sales amid retaliatory tariffs from the European Union after Trump's tariffs and a bourbon boycott from Canada.

These people have had nearly 10 years to have a decent idea of what kind of person he is. In my eyes, anyone I know who still stands with him, is just as disgusting and vile as he is.
And I tell them that.
I’m not trying to be judgmental, but I feel that the people who now say they regret voting for Trump should have had a decent idea what he was all about before Nov 2024.

Yet again I find myself ripping apart my extensive mod list for Skyrim to change something. At this point I am unsure at what I have spent more time doing. Playing the game or modding the game? lol

Currently have 1334 plugins in my load order. That does not include all the non plugin files as well.

Well, been a busy couple days working on the old home network and smart home setup. But, its done. Now, I don't consider myself a total beginner with a homelab, nut I am far from an expert. Finished building a seperate backup nas using a mini pc and a das (direct attached storage) with Proxmox.

That a Reagan judge would give up his lifetime appointment willingly because he feels a future GOP president has rendered that appointment meaningless in the midst of an authoritarian speedrun is quite remarkable:

They 👏 are 👏 breaking 👏 the 👏 law.

Two judges have just ordered that the Trump Administration must release funds for SNAP benefits. The GOP and Admin trying to use hungry kids as political leverage is beyond morally reprehensible. And it’s against the law.

So, I caught a mouse in my kitchen. Well, it caught itself by falling into my sink and getting trapped. But it decided to run into the garbage disposal unit. I am now contemplating my next move.

Man, don't tease me like that.
OK. It's going to be coming out soon because of the relentless investigations of Pam Bondi and Kash Patel, so I might as well admit it before the news breaks:

Okay, the network nerd in me is totally geeking out that I am literally moving/copying neat 1TB of data over my network in just over an hour. And thats only at 2.5gbps lan speeds. Thats insane. I can't imagine what 10gb network speeds would look like.

I find it incredulous that people still think that to disagree with current events is just "political differences". No, no its not.

These same people are just as baffled at how I will burn whatever bridge there was between us just because in their own words "I don't agree with you".
