I think the citizens of Oklahoma would be surprised to hear that Sen. Cotton represents them (hint: he does not).

Someone tried running that in one of the campus computer labs when I was a student, and the (probably misconfigured) IPX routers amplified it into... a campus-wide outage. Seems weird to me, but that's what the big sign on the door said the next day.

The perpetrator was never caught.

I believe my situation was similar to GP's: family on the lower end of middle class, and enough younger siblings to make it a stretch.

I was accepted to a reasonably prestigious university, but ran out of money after the first semester, so I wound up coming home and finishing my degree at a state school.

It's also important to note that the student loan system back then was very different: different guarantors, and non-infinite money.

The post title says "Asking about firearm safety" but the article says that they are _telling_ about safety, after asking about access:

> In the study, researchers introduced standardized firearm safety questions into the electronic medical record (EMR) system, ensuring that healthcare providers consistently inquired about firearm access during behavioral health assessments.

The only maxillomandibular advancement with which I'm familiar is a surgical procedure, rather than an exercise therapy. It involves repositioning both the mandible and your upper jaw (as the name implies) by cutting and repositioning both.

I grew up in a 1300sf wood heated house, so I have relevant experience here. It does take time to buck, split, load, unload, and stack the wood. It goes faster if you have a small child (me) to help!

We cut wood for our own use and also sold it, so it didn't require 100% of our time to keep the heat on.

WT's process for living persons attempts to head this off. It's not perfect, but I think it's a pretty good method.

When you enter data about a living person, you are required to include an email which "invites" that person to WikiTree. If they don't respond within 30 days, their record (which was already private) is anonymized to last name and decade of birth.

Each record's privacy is configurable by its maintainer, or by those to whom the maintainer has granted access.

Obviously there are ways to goof this up or act maliciously, but I don't think the site makes intentional doxxing any easier than it already was.

I agree that familysearch.org is a goldmine for primary sources, I'm very grateful for their digitization initiatives. I'm also glad that there are multiple non-dark-patterned options for people who want to preserve their family history.

I recently started doing some genealogy work for my family, and I was not excited at the prospect of using most of the paid family tree sites -- dark patterns, etc. I recently ran across this site and it seems much more agreeable. I like the wiki-style collaboration, and the emphasis on primary sources is also a big plus vs "this is what I was told."

I have owned a Unicorn mill for nearly 20 years, and it is still going strong.

I have recent experience with this -- I picked up my son's processed deer yesterday morning. There was a chest freezer at the checkout area advertising Hunters Feeding The Hungry (a similar org that moves donated game meat to local food pantries) and I donated a package of ground venison almost without thinking. I don't think anyone has grand notions of meeting 100% of families' protein needs via wild game.

I grew up eating a substantial amount of venison, along with fish and squirrel.

I did something similar last month; I took my FT-817 with me to scout camp. I wanted to work some FT8 but didn't bring the required doodads with me to hook the radio's audio interface to my Surface Pro X. No problem, I'll just use the mic and speaker on the laptop. To my surprise (and much to the annoyance of my fellow leaders) it worked! wsjt-x is an amazing piece of software.
