I assume this is in reference to the US (Regan's) (lack of / adversarial) response to AIDS in the 80s. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ronald_Reagan_and_AIDS

Things like turning the water off, or unplugging things... At minimum I shut the water valve and unplug pretty much anything I can. I'll usually set the thermostats to be a little more extreme than usual. Do you do anything?

So it seems someone got control of the registrar. So guess for a failure of networksolutions? social engineering of the same? or phishing?

update: August 22 FA is back up. See announcement on twitter, discord, or screenshots of the same floating around.

I just got invited to a meeting for a time zone that doesn't exist this time of year. In the US EST does not stand for Eastern time, it stands for Eastern Standard Time (~November-~March), EST is not an active time zone, it is EDT Eastern Daylight Time. Its a pointless thing, most people probably don't notice, but its wrong.

Fake internet points to anyone who knows why DB-9 bothers me.

Edit: corrected a missing n in an eastern

If your willing to share how would you describe your internal demons. I think most people probably have some. Some have more control than others.

My two biggest are a petrifying fear of change, and one I don't know how to articulate well, a petrifying fear of interaction would probably be the best short description.

Change/future: when I left my old job, I had a new one already. Everyone already knew I was leaving. Actually, officially, putting in my 2 weeks notice took me almost a full workday to work up the courage to submit, and I'd already told my boss weeks earlier. I don't like my job now, have a few other things I could consider and the financial means to do it, but I am terrified of following through on any of it. What if I don't like it... What if.. what if... what if... I don't like what I do now, but I am comfortable doing it. I work from home and have wanted to move for over 5 years. I know some of this could be risk aversion, but it seems excessive and irrational at times.

Interactions: Even before submitting my first post here, filling out the form with why I wanted to join was hard for me to do; submitting my first post was terrifying. Even now I have a little worry every time. Its getting better with time, and I do what I can to fight it, but its always there. It took me 10 years before I clicked the watch button on an artist's page. I've never been "normal" and I guess I had some fear of being "found out" or shame? dunno. I was afraid someone I might know would be there. I don't know why, that's why they're demons. I recently joined a few discord servers, I feel like an imposter, that I don't belong, that nobody wants to hear what I have to say, or I'm being in the way. I don't know if its just some social anxiety, or something deeper.

Everybody always says modern pop music is terrible, your suffering from recency bias. Take a look at top 40s from 20 years ago. You'll probably see a bunch of songs you forgot about because they didn't stand the test of time. Old music isn't better, you just only still hear the good stuff.

the next dev, Hey this obscure feature probably doesn't work, should I fix it... No, I'll just patch "temporary-fix-don't-use" and let the next guy fix it properly.

Famous Furries? (yiffit.net)
submitted 11 months ago by [email protected] to c/[email protected]

Who are some celebrities, youtubers, or other notable people who you think or know are probably furries even if they don't explicitly acknowledge it.

I'll propose John Oliver, I would say Mr. Regular too, but he has publicly acknowledged it for a while now.

[-] [email protected] 27 points 11 months ago

I'm honestly a bit surprised. Saying Lewis could have done more to avoid is irrelevant to if Max caused anything. Max was never going to make that corner at that speed. So long as Lewis wasn't weaving under braking, it is my understanding he can pretty much take the corner how he wants to. I'm not an encyclopedia for past incidents, but I think drivers have been penalized for behavior similar to what Max did in the past.

You might not like the prices, but computer components, cpu, gpu, motherboard.. keep getting better each generation, some bugs cause issues, but that's due to trying to maximize performance, not cheeping out. 3-d printer tech. In fact, thinking about it, a lot of competitive products keep their quality. Also small brand premium products in general.

Not a fan of the beach or swimming, but I like being outside, but its too hot and too humid. I sleep better in the winter too. Spring and Fall are great with 75 F highs.

Does anyone have ideas? Does anyone actually want to? I do what I can, but it feels like there is only ~10 people here and shouting into the void isn't that enjoyable. pawb.social is a little better, but I don't know how much their new members know about us, and I don't know how much those here know about their newer communities. For remote visitors, here is a list of all local yiffit communities including all the NSFW ones

You know the one that that person uses in all their videos.

Any you like that you want to add to the list?

I would think it would be dangerous to connect yourself to an open network, so probably.

I decided I wanted a better profile picture, so I bought some art. (Moths are furry, just look at the fluff)

That is the tire that the lap was set with. It is colored the same as the banding on the tires. Red s, yellow M, or white H.

Standard drone/helicopter shots, sure. They have to use a wide angle and a huge distance to follow the car through a corner or two.
But this is a narrow angle with a fairly close distance to the car. I think there is a pretty good sense of speed here.

Random credit card facts: The first ~8 digits are related to the credit network and issuing bank. Visa cards all start with 4. The last digit is a checksum and it only is really useful to validate the rest of the digits were entered correctly.
