And Pete Hegseth, our Secretary of War, wants to put all the US military on testosterone injections. That's really gender-affirming care.

There's also the revised version of that poem that explains that while Casey was at the bat, his uncle Arnold was in the stands taking bets ...

The most common way to install the NEMA 5-15 outlets is vertically, with the two slots above and the round ground pin below. However, in the building where I live, while most outlets are installed that way, the outlets that are controlled by a wall switch are installed "upside-down", with the ground pin at the top which makes it easier to tell which are switched and which are not.

Also, I have noticed that at the (very large) medical center where all my doctors are, all outlets are installed "upside-down". These are the regular outlets where things like PCs are plugged in, and is true both in new and in very old buildings. Anyone have any idea why they would do that?

The more rational distinction between a dictator and a non-dictator is not how they came to power but how they can be removed from power.

The only requirement to join the world's leading association of genocide scholars is paying a $30 membership fee. No expertise required. This makes it trivial to manipulate the association for propaganda purposes. Its declaration that Israel is committing genocide in Gaza was approved by less than 20% of its members. The remaining 80% were never even asked or never voted on it. An acquaintance of mine has been a member since 2013 and is a real scholar with genuine expertise on the Rwandan Genocide. She was not made aware that this resolution was being proposed and learned of its adoption in the press.

But I bet she drives a Recreational Vehicle instead of an Recreational Vehicle.

Dictámelo? Does it take dictation only if you have an Argentinian accent? :-)

> Because she stood little chance of winning even the state party didn't investigate her background either.

I guess they never heard of a certain George Santos either.

Yes. My ISP will rent me a single IPv4 address for $10 per month. Or I can use DHCP, where my IPv4 address can change at their whim.

A move that will draw gasps of admiration in every kindergarten in America.

It's not the foreign producer who must raise her prices to pay for the tax. It's the local importer. The net effect on the consumer is that the price of imported goods goes up so then, as you say, the local producers can raise their prices and increase their profits.

I don't understand how independent health professionals can avoid using self-hosted email. Think of your neighborhood psychologist: any email she sends to or receives from a patient or potential patient should be completely confidential, down to the email address of the correspondents. It's no secret that Google and Microsoft "read" the emails they send and receive and mine them for information.

And yet, a quick search of "psychologists near me" in Google Maps gives me a list of professionals most of whose email addresses have MX records pointing to Google servers.

If you are going to change pi, make it 3. That way maybe some people in the Government can also understand it.
