Respectfully, I disagree. I struggle to think of candidates more milquetoast than Biden and Harris of all people.

I think the problem is that we have no progressives. The right moves things right, the center does nothing, and there is no left.

Your core supposition is wrong, basically everyone is mad about the state of our country. We just have several different ideas on how to fix it and two parties who are dedicated to making it worse.

In comparison to most of Europe, America is very unsafe, gun ownership is much higher, and mental healthcare is a joke.

This means that you do not engage in a dispute with a stranger because they might be unhinged and just kill you over a parking space or who gets to merge first in traffic or whatever.

Sure, butterfly a chicken breast and fry it over high heat. Or eat cheese. Or make succotash, or lentil soup.

All of our cultural defaults for breakfast are terrible for us anyways, we need to eat other things regardless.

I make a bunch of deviled eggs maybe once or twice a year. I don’t care for most other types of “easy” egg preparations and there are plenty of cheap beans, chicken, and cheap bits of pork for my protein needs.

Tbh I don’t understand why people don’t just buy something else. There are several good alternatives available.

The US military has actually been short on recruits for a long time now due to the obesity epidemic.

I mean we could stop maintaining an invasion force in basically every corner of the globe simultaneously, but we aren’t filthy communists or whatever.

You can have it so long as it is semiautomatic. There’s just a lot of paperwork involved because the bolter itself and each individual round are probably considered destructive devices.

I’m very surprised the top answer isn’t pocketbook. Their entire business model is reworking Chinese e ink tablets to make them GDPR compliant and privacy respecting. I’d recommend the pocketbook verse pro if you want a lit screen and USB C, but they have a cheaper model without those features.

Here is a good spec comparison table for ereaders in general. I’d point out basically all e-readers have great battery life.

I don’t know how common they actually are, but they should be fairly accessible. Most insurance plans provide them free or at a heavy discount.

Hot take, but your local community matters infinitely more than the construction of your house. Build somewhere you have neighbors yoh get along with who will stick their neck out for you.

That being said, you can do the following:

• Plant/build near large trees to cover from satellite/aerial photography

• run conduit throughout so you don’t have to rely on wireless networking

• install security cameras that feed somewhere local (I’m assuming nobody who breaks into your house gives enough of a shit to fins and destroy your recordings)

• buy actually good locks, doors, and doorframes. Make sure you’re aware of what to expect from these, they wont actually keep someone out, they just make entrance louder and slightly more cumbersome.

• build a secret sex room for you and your spouse. This is less of a privacy asset, and more just a fun thing to do.

Yes. Outreach is an important part of helping people change their minds.

It’s the same reason you shouldn’t fuck with Jehovah’s Witnesses. By treating them badly, you increase the feeling of isolation they have towards broader society and shove them further into the clutches of the cult.

Our local PD literally have access to stingrays, cellbrite/Pegasus (I don’t actually know which one they pay for) and military weaponry. In the suburbs, they have armored vehicles as well (tanks and APCs, not armored swat trucks).

Obviously it varies by where you live because different departments will have different levels of funding and will ask for different toys from the feds, but you’d be surprised how comically over equipped many PDs are.

The BBC, AP, and Reuters are a good place to start.

I like Erin in the Morning, Propublica, and Bellingcat as well, but they require additional work to parse sometimes.

If OP was trying to secure themselves against interest from conventional state actor like a large intelligence service, I’d say they probably need to throw their phone in a woodchipper and start hitchhiking to the nearest professional spy training program.

More realistic concerns that an ordinary person probably has are casual mass surveillance and local police fuckery. Random AOSP Roms are not sufficient to handle either of those threats.

So technically, you are correct. The force is the water pressure provided by the piss being pulled down by gravity. Practically speaking, this force is negligible because all you’re doing is allowing the piss to fall, not forcing it downwards.

Basically, imagine you’re holding an incredibly heavy rock that does not have a gravitational field or air resistance. If you drop the rock, gravity will pull it down, but regardless you will not go up unless you apply force and throw it down.

Force = Mass * Acceleration.

Gravity is (approximately) 9.88 m/s^2.

According to a random Wikipedia page, ideal body weight was at one point considered 50kg.

This means that the following will find the point where you are perfectly neutral, neither rising off the ground nor being held down by gravity:

9.88 * 50 = M * A

Unfortunately, A in your scenario is 0, meaning that this is not possible no matter how much piss you have. This is because your urine basically just falls out of your body and isn’t being ejected with force.

According to the threads I found privacy guides:

• It mostly just doesn’t work well.

• It hasn’t been independently audited

Basically, but not everyone has a pixel or can afford to buy a new device.

Here is a good comparison. As a reminder, there is no privacy without security, so if you live in the US (or anywhere that illegal searches happen regularly), I’d argue a less secure solution is by definition a less private solution.

Iirc Molly in F-droid still using FCM and the google maps API. If you want Molly-Foss, you have to use Obtanium to pull APKs from their git releases.

Edit: I was wrong, you can get it off their F-Droid repository.
