For me, it’s the refusal to demontize them that’s particularly bad. I can understand free speech absolutists (in theory anyways, in practice you’ll find that they VERY rarely actually are and will happily censor people they disagree with like LGBTQIA+ or sex work content), but that doesn’t mean you need to actively be funding them!
Substack says it will not remove or demonetize Nazi content
Quite a few organizations and lots of individuals are now starting to migratev away from it and if any of the money made by visiting goes to Nazis, many of us would prefer to avoid the place when possible.
When I was a cashier, I’d tell people that and they’d respond that it wouldn’t fill out the carbon copy, so they’d just manually continuing to fill out the check anyways and hold up the line :-\
With the machine filling out the checks, it’s no slower than running a credit/debit card.
Glad I could help, in a fun way!
Then/than and loose/lose mixups bother me every time I see them and it’s “fun” to interpret them as written rather than as they intended!
Exactly! They’ve got it all planned out!
I mean, their use of ‘THEN’ rather than ‘THAN’ indicates that they’ll soon adopt the socialist agenda, so there’s still hope!
If you’re a single man with infants (under age 1) and/or children (under age 5) then, THEY are eligible for the benefits of the program. Women are specifically added in because the program is designed to also help pregnant, breastfeeding and/or postpartum women who have their own nutritional needs. Women who don’t meet those requirements are also not eligible.
So, you don’t get help with food for yourself, but you can get assistance for infants/children … there are other programs to help you.
Search terms used on Google in Incognito mode: single man with children WIC eligibility
Brings you to this page: https://www.joinproviders.com/state/illinois/wic/
Which has the below information:
There are four kinds of eligibility for WIC:
Moms have to be pregnant, up to six months past pregnancy, or up to your baby’s first birthday if you’re breastfeeding.
Children are eligible up to their fifth birthday.
Foster parents, guardians and single fathers who have custody of their children are also eligible.
Residential: You need to live in the state where you’re applying.
Nutritional: A health professional needs to determine if you are at “nutrition risk.” This might mean you have a medical condition like anemia, or a diet that could be healthier. You can see a health professional for free at a local WIC clinic.
Financial: Your household needs to make less than the amounts listed in the income limit table below to qualify for WIC. A pregnant woman counts as two (or more) household members. If you know you’re having more than one baby, count each one as a household member.
The top link for that search is for a page in IL, but I saw similar for other states.
Is that planes that are packed to the gills or private planes that actually have space that people aren’t crammed into?
Also, 3-4/6 liters of what? ICE cars and modern planes aren’t burning the same fuel, so I’m not sure what this is intending to portray by directly comparing how much of each (in liters) that they burn (serious question, no snark)
Agreed that they can’t get a 40G link when attaching to a 10G device, but the 40G QSFP can be split into 4 10G SFP+ connections instead
It’s scary because there is an incredible amount of data that can be gained just by knowing when your lights are turning on and off (when people leave/return for the day and when they’re on vacation are examples). Combine that with information on what IP Address the app is reporting from and you may be able to get a decent bit of location data even without officially querying for location.
Without an account, potentially having this information is bad enough but mandating an account and then having it tied to your email address is worse (since most people aren’t going to make a per-service address).
Right now, my Hue hub is prevented from accessing the Internet and everything using the local API works without issue, except the app is trying to force a TOS agreement and without agreeing I cant do anything with the official app (add/remove devices, adjust on/off state, adjust brightness, etc…). Home Assistant control works, so, my lights still come on automatically based on my motion sensors and my light switches through HA will still turn them on and off and adjust brightness and all that … If I were relying on the official app though, I’d have no choice but to agree to their TOS or would now have to take all the bulbs out.
This really sucks because I paid a shit ton for these bulbs vs their competitors because I liked that they allowed local control natively without needing to mess around with anything to get it to work and had a quality product … Had I known this would happen I definitely would not have paid the hefty surcharge I did and would have gone with a competing product.
Just because your dogs brain was transferred into a robot body that doesn’t need exercise doesn’t mean that the dog doesn’t still want to go for a walk!
One of the eventual goals of kbin is to be compatible with the rest of the fediverse and to “just work” with the rest of it. By way of comparison, Lemmy is basically just a federated Reddit, so, this is actually one of the reasons I chose to go with kbin.
From a practical standpoint, it’ll likely be a while before that becomes a reality, but I like that as a goal.
I’d say see if you can search for the instance in the search (once we’re 100% federated) and if it doesn’t work and it’s something you want to participate in, unfortunately, you’ll need to go there directly.
Also - Your kbin.social account can only log into kbin.social, you can’t use it to log into any other sites (this would include other kbin sites, lemmy sites, mastodon sites, etc…), what you can do is see content from those sites by subscribing to them or on the front page (non-subscribed)
To add to what herrcaptain said, her saying that being a Republican in Hollywood was like being a Jew during the Holocost seemed to have been the breaking point.
Before that she also made a lot of tweets making fun of pronouns and such too, but nothing overtly hateful, so she had managed to skate by until she upped the stupidity.
