"But here's what's suspicious: we were told fortification would prevent bone disease. Instead, we got an epidemic of bone disease in the first generation raised on fortified foods.

Maybe it's coincidence. Maybe it's the hundred other environmental toxins introduced in the same era. Or maybe – just maybe – flooding everyone's system with a fat-soluble synthetic hormone that affects calcium metabolism had unintended consequences that took decades to manifest.

I have set up a disconnected local chatbot using open webui, and I have fed it all of the manuals and maps and diagrams of the Sempf Compound. I can ask it things like "which breaker should I turn off to replace the floor outlets in the living room" and it answers correctly.

I'm afraid to talk about it here because of the general hatred of GenAI. Probably should set up an alt on a techbro instance or something. My filters would probably block everyone so I'm not sure that would work.

Hate to say it, but this stat is more than 10 years old. The corporate leach who runs that company is making a lot more than that today. Plus, he no doubt gets far more than that in non-wage compensation.

The federal minimum wage is still only $7.25/hour, same as it was in 2008. Only difference is that today that $7.25/hr is even further from a living wage than it was then. And if you are a new worker, under the age of 20, they can pay you a "training" wage of only $4.25/hr.

Mon pc a retrouvé son fond d'écran habituel, mais pourtant, tout a changé : mon ordinateur est maintenant sous Linux grâce à @lou_de_sel 🥳

Un grand merci à elle pour son boulot, sa patience et l'agréable moment passé ensemble 🥰

Maintenant, y'a plus qu'à apprendre à utiliser inkscape et ink/stitch pour reprendre des projets de broderie 💪 (merci @machine_chouette pour le tuyau 🪡)

Trump-Putin summit a breakthrough for peace, but the U.S. needs to end the war strategic-culture.su/news/2025…

I've spent thousands of hours designing in 3D but I never designed a boat other than small modifications of my own 70's fishing boat

Though it has a 10 degree hull I doubt that the mold was originally intended for fishing boats

Anyhow, while I was spending my vacation extending my boat, it got me thinking, I should be able to draw a boat in 3D and just have it printed in a scaled down size and fitted with some simple RC engine and I can make a cheap model testing

(illustrations not my design)

Falls ihr euch fragt wie es auf dem weg zum #faschismus in #deutschland so läuft:

Vor rund einer Woche wurde Marxismus quasi (wieder) verboten.

Das Bvg entschied dass die marxistische Lehre nicht mit der demokratischen Grundordnung vereinbar sei.

Ihr wisst schon, die Idee dass Menschen grundlegend alle gleich sind und die Früchte ihrer Arbeit verdient haben.

Das war schon mal so. Als #hitler an die Macht kam.

Ich wollts nur mal sagen. Da "wählt" sich so schnell auch keiner mehr raus.
