How sad for her family. I liked her in party of five (?) and eurotrip.

This makes me want to get my titer drawn for sure.

I was really hoping that area of the texas NM border was isolated enough that it would stay contained :/

End up like AOL and get big enough to buy time Warner and make a lot investors very rich? I feel like your downplaying the success of aol. Last I heard that whatever was left of them in Yahoo was supposedly still making money.

Cool recommendation. I like my moka pot and am alwayslooking to improve my output.

I recommend the Mars trilogy by Kim Stanley Robinson. The first book deals with the ethical dilemmas of starting a Martian colony and the subsequent books spin the conceit further into the future.

You seem like you've thought this question out from several different angles so I think you'd enjoy the way Robinson describes the various consequences of competing goods.

Everybody wants to go to heaven. Most people don't want to go today.

The anchor points are usually in the bed or the side of the stake holes. On my truck (half ton dodge) none of the places to tie on to are visible.

You don't say your weather conditions but for legit cold I like ski gloves and liners like the other poster said. Otherwise I have some Scott leather gloves that i wear for xc skiing that work well down to the low 40s. I also have some down mittens, OR maybe, that are great and I can use brifters but they tend to be too warm unless it's really cold

Section 230 is good overall I think it just shouldn't apply to anything sorted by engagement or not clearly defined and auditable. Section 230 makes sense for Craigslist but not for Facebook/Twitter. If a site has a "suggested posts" section or "you may like" feature they should be treated as publishers and not protected.

I've installed debian on an old laptop and am wondering if the 10 gig base system size can be slimmed down by deleting unneeded files.

I ran the commands to look for any runaway logs or other obviously large files and nothing popped out.

Is there a group of folders full of stuff I don't need or is this just the size of modern distros?

EDIT: I ended up doing a netinstall and got a 6ish gig system so I'm pretty happy with that. The netinstall image was able to detect my wifi card even though the debian live installer was not.

 

Putting out albums and arrangements since the late 1600s. Truly a beast.

archive sad to see this happening here. Roving gangs of youth harassing the homeless with support from the local government should worry everyone.

Well it was a fun few days but beeper mini is down. Someone supposedly affiliated with the project said on reddit it was on Beeper's end but people testing it say Apple has blocked something.

Been my EDC for about two years. Holds an edge well and all the mechanical parts are still tight. Recommend to anyone looking for a budget knife but not gas station knife. RAT II

 

Sort of hit piece against DeSantis by members of his own party who support Trump.
