right wheels need to be within 12" of the curb

park nose first

rear passenger wheel still more than 12" from curb -> ticket.

I agree that the status of violence being monopolized is a net good for society, it fact I tend to agree that it may actually be the most important distinction between “civilization” and not.

That said, state violence needs to be intensely reviewed and unjust or overuse of it should be rectified. The U.S. idea of qualified immunity tends to be eliminated, and in the few cases where it is justified can be replaced with a much more narrow policy/practice. And that’s just to start.

Also, restrained violence in defense of self or others, including resisting unjust state violence, is universally acceptable. It’s necessity shows problems with how the monopolizer of violence is imperfectly dispensing violence, which must be expected from an imperfect actor.

Bah, there’s a LOT of devices that could talk to my father’s phone over the LAN if they were programmed that way. But, they aren’t. They report to a wall-known “cloud” server, and the app on his phone checks that same server for the latest status or to relay command/control.

Nice advantage: can get status / send commands even when he is not on the LAN. Bad disadvantage: when the rural Internet blinks out (like every time it rains) he can’t tell the robo-vac which rooms to start cleaning.

Vidiverse search isn’t working on the instance I use. You gotta link to “1944 Gaslight” for the underprivileged?

Ah, a fellow GPB enjoyer, spreading the Truth about gas lamping.

I remember this wording from Rick and Morty, but does it also predate that?

I’ve been using it on my laptop, and it’s been doing weird things that my X11 never did. It’s like rescaling or antialiasing or doing something with the fonts in my terminal while I’m using it. But, enough works that I’m gonna stick with it for now.

Also, I’m not able to use my preferred window manager XMonad under Wayland so far. Maybe at some point there will be a way to combine Wayland, KDE Plasma, and real window manager simply. (But, KDE Plasma has been getting more and more hostile to alternative window managers even on X11; I can’t been able to cleanly close my user session in months.)

… the best kind of correct.

Are the new winners listed of the Indie Game Awards site?

I’m not going to uninstall or demand a refund, but I fully support the Indie Game Awards decision on this and will not refer to CO:E33 as a winner of any of the Indie Game Awards. I will still call it IMO the best JRPG in many years, but I thought that before it started receiving awards.

I hope this event serves to scare game studios of all sizes from the mere appearance of using AI at ANY scale or part of the process. Hell, I hope it causes the whole damn bubble to burst, but it’s just not that important.

That’s the worst vitiligo I’ve ever seen! Oh, just yoga pants.

Uncle Ruckus does not approve.

Oh, I didn’t realize naked butts as part of full-height bottomless illustrations were SFW. Did I miss some explicit rules? My last in-office workplace would not put up with this as cube art, and my last workplace wouldn’t appreciate this in any of the group chats.

I don’t really care that much, but this feels over the line to me.

Probably should be tagged NSFW, yeah?

It’s an older meme sir, but it checks out.

What? The green revolution doesn’t deserve anti-aircraft capabily?

Ho, ho, ho. Ho.

This Santa has one extra.

If it is not literally everyone, it still might be correct in the way that using a word for (one of) its jargon meaning(s) is correct. So, correct in context.

When using words to convey information to an audience to whom you might not be able to clarify, it is useful to use words for the meanings listed in common dictionar(y/ies) (“correctly”) so that the audience can resolve confusions through those dictionaries.

My body is a MACHINE that turns DIRTY things into CLEAN things. /skeleton-deadlift-meme

I am.

(j/k; I’m pretty poor at cleaning things.)

While I do have some control over my DNS and can create arbitrary TXT entries, I can’t to that in an automated way easily. I’m using Gandi.net to host my DNS rather than running my own DNS sever(s).

EDIT: Gandi is listed https://community.letsencrypt.org/t/dns-providers-who-easily-integrate-with-lets-encrypt-dns-validation/86438 so maybe I can automate a DNS-01 challenge without too much issue, I just have to switch away from certbot to one of the other tools.

It does have access to the HTTP root directories. But, it still can’t open port 80/443 when apache already has that port open.

EDIT: I guess my certbot renew just needs to be reconfigured to use a --webroot, so it doesn’t try to listen on it’s own.
