DeSantis using state money, time and his power to fight abortion rights measure
  • I'm going to catch flak for this, but my opinion of general doctors is basically the welcome to Walmart greeters.

    Doctor - what's your complaint?

    Patient - my heart hurts (or whatever hurts)

    Doctor - down the hall to the left, take the elevator up to 4th. There's a specialist that can see you there. Don't go down, or you'll be in urology.

  • FTC's rule banning fake online reviews goes into effect
  • Why do people do what you just did?

    He says this won’t work.

    And somehow you jump to “then we should just leave it as being legal”

    He didn’t say we shouldn’t try something just that this might not be the best implementation.

  • One issue will decide Arizona’s future. Nobody’s campaigning on it.
  • I'm going to call it now. Arizona will swing red in this election. The legislature will remove some of the restrictions, allowing more homes to be built. The water crises will get worse. It will go beyond a tipping point, to a point of no return. People will get tired of having less water. Then they will start moving in droves. Housing prices will collapse. Anyone who doesn't sell before then will find no one wants to buy their house and they will be stuck.

    It will take quite a few years for that to play out but it will happen.

  • What hope have you given up on?
  • The days of having a good user interface for electronics or programs is long gone and is never coming back. To many people don't even know how to look at a user interface and know if it's good or bad. They just buy bad ones and claim it's good out good enough.

    That the US will never have net neutrality as a whole. A few states might implement it but no where near enough.

  • DeSantis using state money, time and his power to fight abortion rights measure
  • I will never understand how a doctor is against abortion rights.

    A doctor is in a prime position to understand that many times symptoms of one patient can be disease /problem /ailment X and in the next patient it can be disease /problem /ailment y.

    A doctor has the training to understand to understand that many times what they are doing is just educated guess work. So how are they going to have a definitive line of when a pregnant lady is at risk during pregnancy and know exactly when an abortion is needed?

    It's like they actually failed in college at understanding how their job even works, but somehow passed because they got enough points in other areas.

  • Soo-Won Mets is the most annoying thing that I have experienced in the game so far.

    Did it twice now. It sucks. Just my opinion. Most times I couldn’t even figure out where to go.

    Is there a wig that doesn't heat your head?

    My mom would not be able to wear a hat during the summer obviously heat would stay in and she would get too hot. She needs a wig, but that wig should, for lack of a better phrase, breathe.

    So it doesn’t hold the heat in near the scalp.

    Is there a wig that is like that? Or do all wigs effectively hold heat to the scalp?

    Edit: I'm sorry if I wasn't clear. That's on me. I meant will a wig be more warm then normal hair?

    I want to change the color of the title bar

    I think this would do it

    https://github.com/the-allanc/minty-color-titles

    It says to put it into the .config/gtk-3.0 folder

    But I can’t find a .config folder. I found an /etc/gtk-3.0 folder.

    Would that directory work?

    Is there a better way to change the title bar color?

    Trying to install Linux mint have a question

    I have two internal hard drives in my pc, one has windows 11 and one is for extra storage.

    I hooked up an external USB drive to install Linux onto. During the install it says

    Device for boot loader installation

    And then it gives me a number of options

    /dev/nvme0n1 (this I think is what my windows 10 is at)

    /dev/nvme0n1p1

    /dev/nvme0n1p3

    /dev/nvme0n1p4

    /dev/sda ATA WDC WD10EZEX-00W (1.0 TB) Ii think this is the other internal drive

    /dev/sda2

    /dev/sdb WD easystore 2647 (1.0 TB)

    /dev/sdb1

    I think the easystore is my external drive. The problem is they are both 1T in size and both western digital.

    How do I know which is which?

    Just above where it says "device for boot loader installation" it shows

    !

    If I try to click on /dev/sdb I can't click on install now.

    On the basis that I should be trying to install in /dev/sdb what am I doing wrong to actually start the install process?

    Yeah I'm new to Linux. I need help to do it right and not nuke my windows install

    Can I run mint Linux from an external drive?

    I know, I can create a live CD of Linux, I know I also can create a bootable Linux installation on a jump drive. I’m curious is can I actually do a full install of mint Linux on an external drive and actually run it that way. When I say run it I mean actually add packages remove packages, etc. i’m asking because I have a currently working Windows 10 computer. And until I really understand Linux especially how to properly install it. I prefer not to screw something up on a working system. I figured install it to an external Drive and then just tell the bios, don’t boot the windows drive just boot into the external Drive.

    Would this actually work?

    How do I verbally say 2.1 ng/kg

    I know the ng means nanogram

    But I’m curious how would I say the above line of 2.1 ng/kg

    For context I got it from this paragraph

    a lethal dose of 1.3–2.1 ng/kg in humans

    Would it be

    2.1 nanogram per kilogram?

    Also if I wanted to write that as a decimal number how would i write that?

    WYR have perfect recall and understanding of anything you read and always lose when you try to invest (you can hire someone else to invest for you), or be world renowned in investing success but...

    Have absolute crap for memory and have very low ability to understand things.

    If I sign up on a hot air balloon ride and there is bad weather can I get my money back?

    Each of the companies that we have talked to for Hot air balloon rides have said you pay for it in advance, then if there is bad weather, you don’t get your money back. You just have to reschedule for another day. We have a friend who had to make many many many trips an hour and a half each way and each time on the way there, they would get a call to say sorry it’s too windy or some other item. It took a long time before they actually got there actual ride.

    So what I’m wondering is, is there any company out there that actually just gives a refund if you can’t take the ride because of inclement weather.? This is in the United States.
