You're getting downvoted to oblivion, but I do see and agree with your point: "Branding matters"

A significant portion of the population will not rub two brain cells together to understand the "warming -> change" connection, as reasonable as it is. Same thing with the "defund the police" slogan. Yes, when you understand the concept you can see the meaning, but for those that don't bother to understand the concept, the "brand name" is the beginning and the end of thought applied. When the "brand name" is easily attackable, the idea is dead so far as they're concerned.

As frustrating as it is, persuasive arguments need to also appeal to those who are persuaded by quips and jokes as well as those who are persuaded by logic and reason. Unfortunately "Global Warming", the "old brand" is still sticking around, and still able to be joked away by many people, hence the reason for the image post in the first place.

Once they rolled out ads on the home page (Shame. Shame. Shame.), I installed "Launcher manager" and "Wolf launcher" to give it an interface I really like. A big background picture, some large buttons for the commonly used apps, and then progressively smaller buttons as you scroll down the screen for the less commonly used features.

It broke once when an update rolled out, but since then has been running fine and I never once see the bloated monstrosity that is the default home screen.

The only qualm with my setup I have is that access to the configuration sidebar isn't as intuitive as it was with the pre 9.0 version (which frankly I don't remember anymore aside from the general impression). That's a very minor price to pay to have an interface without ads.

Thanks for the response, that confirms my assumption, seems like I was configuring it right, but the behavior is not as expected.

• If HA is active/onscreen already, the command will do nothing.
• If HA is idle/offscreen, the command will bring HA to the forefront, but not change pages. (This is the state it is in after the "turn_off" sends the launcher intent.)
• If HA is off, the command will launch HA, and navgate to the correct page.

Is this all that is to be expected? or should I be able to get to the desired dashboard, from any previous screen or application state?

Summary of the opinion: Nobody here has standing, but... Missouri maybe?, Cause the corporation the state created won't be able to take in all those fees. Also, congress only allowed completely trashing rules, or slightly tweaking them, this is more "in-between" and we don't like that. Oh, and the replacement rules only have a requirement to be published, theres no authority to actually write them. This is a new rule, so it's not allowed. Furthermore, the action taken was too big, unprecedented, we don't like that.

Summary of the dissent: Nobody here has standing. PERIOD. That corporation could bring it to us, and is explicitly permitted to act as an independent financial and legal entity, so they can bring it theirselves. IF they brought it themselves, congress clearly delegated authority to "waive or modify" provisions, and provide substitute rules appropriate to the situation, after they had passed it explicitly for the gulf war, then explicitly for 9/11, and then opened the doors wide open to any national emergency because they have more important things to deal with during emergencies than student loan policy. The scale of the action matches theS scale of the emergency, and is actually smaller than the previous action (loan pause) that the previous administration instituted. So in other words, loan relief like this may have been a shit idea, may have been a great idea, but it is exactly what the law allows and the court has no business deciding otherwise. It's not our fucking job to write policy.

You can probably pretty obviously tell which opinion I agree with more... This court is trash, gymnastics required to justify most of their decisions. Expand the court so the scales of power don't fucking seesaw from regular jurisprudence to batshit insanity upon the death of a single robe-clad geriatric. 😫

That's pretty slick. I didn't know Firefox bookmarks had anything like that feature. Thanks for sharing!

Beautiful, thanks! These are going in the recipe app 😁

Yeah, I think I need to move that way. If it doesn't fit in the unRAID box or the main PC. It needs to go. Whether that's donation, selling, recycling or trash, I should just quit hoarding the parts. I'm one of those folks that saves the best weapons till the end of the game "in case I need them", picks the neutral path instead of the dark/light path cause I don't want to cut off my options, and would rather organize my 50 spare USB cables by size/type/length than throw them away. 🤣 It's a thought process that pervades more than just spare PC parts after upgrade lol. Habit breaking is definitely the name of the game!

I recently discovered the glory of gochujang, and I'm obsessed with it. Happen to have a recipe for this?

This, except the rainy weekend happens and I rarely look to my pile of old equipment as the time filler 😅

I've never liked dealing with excel for anything other than manual work. It's data integrations have grown beyond my familiarity, and I've never liked any of the python libraries I've used for reading and writing excels formats. Go accessible with something like CSV, and you lose most things of value that excel can offer.

Currently though, this is my strategy. I've got folders of Excel sheets that I manually add exports of various things to, but I'm missing the piece that ties it all together, and I'd sure love to do less of the work manually.

Although it's probably not great for me to be seeking out new excuses, another server implies you might have a few... Any cool uses you'd like to share?

Drives thankfully can easily have extended utility, I don't feel bad about those cause I haven't hit my bay limits yet. Using them in the unRAID box also means I don't really worry about them dying and losing anything valuable.

Speaking of 5 builds worth of RAM... I found and disposed of a couple 128MB sticks the other day. Progress 😅
