Got back from vacation yesterday. Today, the Blue Angels are practicing for their show (exhibition? Not really sure what they call it). Super fun to get to watch them play in the sky all day.

Ha! Enjoy it! Sounds like it’ll be fun!
I cannot wait for the day we unite and eat the rich!
It’s clever enough to show success in many countries and latch on to MAGA. They’ll use those countries as the experiment and use the successful methods in the countries they oppose.
I found it interesting that these programs are trying to unite the extreme right and extreme left together.
Being on the defense of these ever changing methods will exhaust us, and they will be successful if they keep at it long enough.
And most news papers were acquired by the same handful of media companies. In turn these companies ravaged local markets and there’s just no coverage of the actual truth, even on local happenings.
There’s an article about my hometown covered by NY times or something (I forget, it’s been a few years). We had a flourishing newspaper that employed a decent amount of the community, when that article came out (2010ish) the same company had 3 reporters and 5 staff. The newspaper would cover legitimate issues locally and nationally. They had amazing journalists that promoted great things happening too (local studies, non profits doing the hard work to benefit the community, etc). Basically, the boring stuff that isn’t flashy enough for social media. And now it’s all gone.
I legitimately have a difficult time finding news stories on any platform that I can trust.
Edit: I just read this, different angle to the same problem https://web.archive.org/web/20240512160438mp_/https://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2024/06/china-russia-republican-party-relations/678271/
International competition is really amazing, it can drive innovation and make governments spend a ton of money on good things for society. It’s probably one of the biggest pros.
But the US banning Chinese products (more than just cars) only delays the inevitable. China is producing cheaper products. Are they better? I can’t really answer that, since I don’t know. But I’d be willing to buy a Chinese EV. US auto industry would collapse if China was allowed to enter and honestly, we deserve it.
The US is going to go through a strange and difficult transition when we are no longer the world leader on R&D.
I’ll third this. I get this message on just about every website.
In the Philippines, you have to pay the hospital before receiving care. If you don’t pay, you don’t get treatment. This includes emergency.
I was going to try to explain it, but realized I’m not very good at calling menus and such their proper names. So whatever I tell you wouldn’t be very helpful.

Apple also has a YouTube video that’s about 5 minutes long. The article is probably faster.
I’m not a power user, so I don’t use the majority of features on my phone. I generally set my “do not disturb” at bedtime. It allows calls through from my favorite contact list and my morning alarm. I have friends that set focus time and they love it.
Edit to add to the conversation. I disable all notifications, except for things I really want: calls, FaceTime, texts and to update my food diary if I haven’t done so before 2pm.
When I need to use Uber, I just keep watch on the app. I guess I’m a bit of a psychopath. But when I’m waiting for a car, I like to watch it move on the map. There’s nothing else I would use that would need me to have a notification.
Same. TJs hurts the most. Thinking they were “good” and they have a lot of quality products.
Ha! Very appropriate response.
It’s too bad the programs that actually help people aren’t given more money and people to make it large scale. Instead, we get this.
This is devastating. There was construction on the bridge at the time, so less traffic, but the construction crew was there.
Probably both. From my limited understanding the country is so poor, sex tourism of girls (and probably boys) has become normalized.
I cannot believe an article like this would use the language “girls falling pregnant”. Nobody falls pregnant.
I have nothing of value to add to your problem.
I do want to appreciate Beehaw mods (founders?) dedication to this. This is a huge headache to need an urgent solution, and you don’t get paid.
If you have a tips jar, buy me a beer, or fund my vacation fund, I’d love to give each one of you some $$ for all the work you do!
Congratulations!! May you get to pick which ever job you prefer!
My ex was stationed here many years ago. He spoke fondly of all the Filipino workers that lived on the island. He never mentioned asylum seekers. So either it was long before they aren’t or they are not near the military base. The island is not big though. I would imagine any reports of a sailor messing with civilians would not be well received by the navy.
I was offered a promotion. Looks good on the resume, no extra pay and a lot more headache. I’m already burnt out, have no motivation, etc. I wish I could take like 3-6 months off to just reset and level out. But that’s not in the cards for me.
Looks like there’s a metasploit available. You can use that on your router to see if it’s susceptible. A quick google search indicates that this is only successful on older routers without input validation.
In general, follow good cyber security hygiene, and update the firmware on your router. If your router no longer is supported by the vendor (no more firmware updates for vulnerabilities found), then it’s old and you should upgrade.
