Evangelical leaders are certainly trying.

We’ve already burned our bridges. If we ever get out of this mess it’s going to take decades to rebuild trust from our allies.

Is the explanation, “Because Windows 11 is shitty”?

Sad to see this photo of them celebrating like this is some sort of football team win.

A lot of it is willfull ignorance.

Time to ban “hot dog” for not containing dog meat.

It’s happened before with mining towns and the early days of the oil boom. Lots of still abandoned towns in the middle of nowhere.

The plastic is already getting old and brittle. I’m not that worried about retrobright.

Misleading headline making it sounds like all battery recycling poisons people. Half assed battery recycling is half assed.

Also sodium ion or some other lead-free formulation will likely replace lead acid 12v batteries over the next few years.

The adverb is on the verb in this sentence, not the noun. You are saying I thank you, and how I thank you is kindly (gratefully or with grace). As opposed to thanking someone snidely or backhandedly.

Kindly could also be a shortening of “for your kindness” depending on the history of this phrase.

I read it. Seems to target franchises only. So if you’re a privately owned taco truck serving high calorie fried food, or a sugar-laden ice cream parlor you’re a-ok. But if you’re a franchise salad place you’re screwed.

My point being that it’s a slippery slope to target businesses based on “feelings” instead of facts. Taxing high calorie foods, or added sugars, or fried foods, or any number of health-related measurable things would probably be more productive than aiming at “fast food” or “franchises”.

Define “garbage restaurant”. Is a Starbucks a garbage restaurant? What about a shaved ice cart with sugar-laden syrups? Tacos? Are tacos garbage? How about a salad place that serves ranch dressing?

Reminds me of ThunderScan. A device that turned your dot matrix printer into a scanner by pretending it was an ink ribbon cartridge.

Quite a claim from the guy who labeled things “Full self driving” and “Autopilot”. 🙄

While an interesting idea, that project wants what amounts to the cost of a new thermostat in exchange for a kickstarter project. Might as well just buy a new thermostat.

Surprisingly, these still work as dumb thermostats after the cutoff date.

Was hoping something like Homebridge could be used to still control these, but so far no luck. After the cutoff they can be used manually like a traditional thermostat, which is a surprise coming from Google. I still fear they are going to generate a bunch of ewaste from people replacing them.
