@mwichary@Infoseepage@jwz Here the force is downward and productive all at once. A pencil eraser gripping the drum is good where it would stop a dial from functioning, and the phone will not counter-rotate away from my dial finger before i finish dialing because I'm literally pushing it into the table
Anyone know how to read these? I think they are capacitors, i expect them to be mostly in the microfarads range and good for hundreds of volts Edit: i got some helpful answers and i think I'm good now #retro#repair#retroRepair
@timo21@StillIRise1963 I saw their faces change to "professional mode" the moment his win was announced in 2016 and I've never trusted them again. They've proven me right many times since Edit: "them" being TV news reporters
I just watched the Last Week Tonight online video this week and Fuck Chuck Schumer. That dude invented a fake family that can't be satisfied with anything Democrats are expected to accomplish and he spent his entire political career chasing their fictional votes. Making policy to keep their interest. A fake family that hates Democrats. #usPol
@thomasfuchs@NeoJRPG I used to maintain arcade machines and the old guys there could play Pac-Man for half an hour on one credit because they knew how to control the ghosts. I watched one of them do it while his oil was being changed
"AI Note Writers must also “earn the ability to write notes,” and they can “gain and lose capabilities over time based on how helpful their notes are to people from different perspectives,” " Gee, ok, i wonder which perspectives the Nazi bar will promote and which it will restrict
@Thebratdragon@artemis And instead of asking women they listen to men who are unhappy in their relationships with women. I mean i see how they can bond but it can't feel productive, can it?
People trying to do right in this moment need to stop announcing that legal and good are the same thing. Stop saying the raids are bad because they are illegal; there's a good chance they will become legal soon. Slavery was legal. The Holocaust was legal. #usPol
I'm all for showing force but force does nothing if not applied in the correct way. Reading their website, i don't think the No Kings folks want to change things as much as they want to initiate fundraising activities for failed politics.
I think we need to keep our focus on stopping the deportations but i don't even see any items No Kings wants to achieve besides "growing a movement". But they refuse to define what it is beyond "not Trump". Your protest means a lot more if it has specific actionable demands but i don't think this group actually wants change. They want to go back to setting us up for failure while we pay them for the privilege.
It's cool to go. Have fun and meet people but be real about what this can accomplish and try to take the opportunity to plan for more if you can. Just don't put your name on a list of people who can expect retaliation if this "pushback" fails.
Trans Rights are Human Rightshe/himI like some stuff.Banner image: a kitty laying with her head sideways looking at the cameraProfile image: a photo of a corner that's not really clear what's going on but there's a ledge and the right half of the image is a lighter gray than the left except for two lines that meet in a "V" at the ledge where the colors are swapped.
