Maga calls her a commie and her opponent was as demented as Trump, to show the level of politics here.

Orbital datacenters make absolutely no sense. Orbital mirrors to reflect sunlight for extremely vague reasons related to solar energy makes absolutely no fucking sense.

This has to just be stock pump and dumps, or they are literally mercury-poising, late-stage-syphilis levels of insane. Even if they got everything they wanted none of this shit would work as well or be as cheap as technology we already have. It just reinforces how stupid, venal, and misanthropic these fucks are.

The first step to winning custody is to tell the judge that you're a natural living man and you don't have joinder.

There's a whole clade of independent housing inspectors who make content online highlighting the shit they find on the job, and these new-construction developments are the worst. The city or county inspectors signing the occupancy permits MUST be on the take, there's no other explanation.

Deoxygenated, venous blood is dark red. Oxygenated, arterial blood is bright red.

I was taught the "blood is blue" myth also. My mom was livid, since her job involved drawing lots of blood, starting IVs etc.

I could never even understand wtf was happening in those.

Actually one of my most favorite memories because the simplicity of the solution using recursion blew my little mind. It was like discovering a magic spell.

In this episode Butters is visiting Niagara Falls as a tourist, but he is arrested for being a foreigner. Nobody cares about his passport or the fact he was there "legally" and he gets funneled into a huge prison facility called "Alberta Alcatraz".

After several scary experiences he is in line for a phone call. When he gets to the front the guard pretends to not understand what he is asking for.

  • Guard: WELL, what do YOU WANT?
  • Butters: Uhh I want to make a phone call, please.
  • Guard: Puh-hone call? Puh-hone? What's that?
  • Butters: I don't understand mister. I'd like to call someone on that phone.
  • Guard: Oh THIS? DO YOU MEAN-

The guard lets out a long, trumpet-like fart that sounds like, "fooooooooooone".

  • Butters: Wha--- what?
  • Guard 2: YEAH! YOU MEAN- (farting) foooooooooooone!

Apparently this is how Canadians make the word, "phone".

  • Guard 2: HEY THIS LITTLE YANK CAN'T SAY- (farting) ffhhhooooooone!!
  • Guard: HAHA!!! (farting) fuuuooooooooooooooone!

All guards start laughing at Butters and farting "fooooone". They can all apparently do this quite naturally.

  • Butters: B-but, I don't have to fart right now.
  • Guard: IF YOU WANT SOMETHING YOU NEED TO LEARN TO SPEAK CANADIAN!

Butters resolves to save up his farts to get his phone call. Several days pass. Now trembling and sweating, a pale Butters can barely stand in line.

  • Butters: Oh man... I gotta make it...

The inmate in front of him effortlessly farts "foooooooooone" and is let ahead. Butters is up.

  • Guard: YEAH? WHAT DO YOU WANT THIS TIME?
  • Butters: I want... I want... I... uh... UH.... ahhH!!

Butters loses control of his bowels and sprays shit in all directions, then collapses. Everyone around yells in disbelief and disgust.

A large inmate walks up and looks down.

  • It's OK little buddy, my cousin had that same speech impediment.

Then I woke up.

I invite you to look beyond the machinery of misinformation—an integral part of this aggression—and instead speak with those who have visited Iran. Observe the many accomplished Iranian immigrants... Do these realities align with the distortions you are being told about Iran and its people?

Sorry is there an Adrian Zenz-like figure I can ask instead?

Seriously though I admire that, despite all we've done to them, he still responds with a dignity that we certainly don't deserve. Of course we're totally deaf to this as a people, but I respect the gesture.

There's no way they want to eliminate bot traffic, it would kill 2/3rds of their traffic instantly. So this just means, "bots that aren't paying us."

Prefacing by saying I'm a total noob to webdev.

I'm trying to move my personal portfolio site off of Squarespace and onto some sort of static hosting. Since I know nothing, I'm cobbling together hugo templates and using LightBox2 to show image galleries. The blog I'm referencing includes LightBox2 using this:

<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/jquery/3.4.1/jquery.min.js" integrity="sha256-CSXorXvZcTkaix6Yvo6HppcZGetbYMGWSFlBw8HfCJo=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>
<script src="https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/lightbox2/2.11.1/js/lightbox.min.js" integrity="sha256-CtKylYan+AJuoH8jrMht1+1PMhMqrKnB8K5g012WN5I=" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

I would prefer to not subject people viewing my page to any external tracking if I can avoid it. My page has zero tracking/analytics for this reason. I briefly tried downloading LightBox2 and directly including it instead, and was able to get it working mostly, but some things were broken that I would need to debug. Before I do that I was wondering, is this even a problem? Is including stuff from cloudflare cdn like this sketchy? It's possible I'm being overly paranoid but I have no idea.
