But, batteries have a years long shelf life, and if they're cold you'll get condensation when you put them in something!

I supported Biden before the debate, I support him now after the debate. But now it's more of a "Ah fuck, look at this mess I'm going to be voting for, ah fuck what the fuck America aaaaaaah." Than it was before.

A concerning number of republicans have been running on a public platform of eliminating democracy.

I used to be a big fan of Samsung, but over the past couple years it has become a do not buy brand for me. They keep doing anticompetitive stuff with their phones so my next phone won't be one.

Start of 2024 my Samsung TV that wasn't that old up and died. And my less than a year old Samsung monitor is flickering.

My watch 6 classic is my favorite smart watch I've ever had, but in order to get it working well on a non Samsung phone you need to go through a bunch of bullshit hassle.

I have $25 wired IEMS that sound better than my most expensive Bluetooth tws sets. I've taken to just listing to podcasts and YouTube videos with my Bluetooth sets at work.

If you don't do a lot of highway driving a Subaru Sambar van is awesome and they're dirt cheap to import. Next year the 1999 models will be available and they're very improved for safety features compared to the 1998 ones.

When the Kei Vans were first made they made being able to fold the seats down flat into a bed a big priority because of how high rent was in the 80s and 90s in Japan.

Edit: I should mention that the improved safety features is that a front crumple zone exists at all, it's still not safe, but it is a lot better than the older ones.

It's also likely that he was never intending to share them. One of the things he was looking to do is aquire a large dataset to analyze trends.

In other words, he was charged for entirely legit use.

Child marriage is already legal in quite a few states with parental permission. And there are a lot of terrible parents.

Can you live without YouTube ?

Today in a Privacy community a post about YouTube. No word about privacy but all about which software or settings are needed to watch videos and the money needed to host videos. It made me wonder whether some of you can lead a meaningful life without YouTube. Or will a cold turkey bring the worst out of you ?

If I had to give up YouTube I'd move to Nebula. It's been growing and is steadily getting better.

Yeah, they've got a ton of great documentaries there, plus some other series that are pretty great.

At least it is an Airport already named after a horrible person?

A few years back there was a guy who managed to get his US citizenship revoked while overseas at an embassy. He ended up not getting citizenship in his country of choice and was deported to USA, where he was denied entry. Ended up in South America somewhere as a stateless refugee.

Back when the stories broke that the CIA helped to fund itself for their Contra operations by smuggling cocaine into America they helped protect the CIA because they were angry that a small time paper and Gary Web broke the story instead of mainstream media.

There are declassified CIA documents talking about how helpful the LA Times and New York Times were on helping them cover up the scandal. They were worried about the continued existence of the CIA with everything coming out but mainstream media came to their defense unprompted.

Overdraft fees could drop to as low as $3 under new Biden proposal ( apnews.com )

The cost to overdraw a bank account could drop to as little as $3 under a proposal announced by the White House, the latest effort by the Biden administration to combat fees it says pose an unnecessary burden on American consumers, particularly those living paycheck to paycheck....

I got a few dollars from 5/3 bank cause of a class action for exactly this.
