Gators -> clothe masks of various styles (and the assorted accessories we inevitably needed/wanted to make them more comfortable) -> KN95s.
Not pictured because we used them up, the hosptial style blue/white jobs.
We had two cubbies in our going outside coat rack dedicated to masks. Consolidated down to just one that is just the KN95s.

Harry's Last Stand
"We're In The Shit Now," Sept 1, 1939
"Tomorrow marks the 86th anniversary of the start of the Second World War. On 1 September 1939, Hitler’s Germany invaded Poland, and within days Britain was at war. For my father, Harry Leslie Smith, the day began like any other in Halifax — stacking groceries at Grosvenor’s. By evening, the world was forever changed."

I'm trying to make a raid 1 from a drive with existing data. I think i understand how. (I'm pretty sure about the first 2 steps.)
1. Partition the new drive
2. Set up raid 1 on the new drive with a missing partition
3. Copy the data from the original drive to the new drive
4. Wipe the original drive and add it to the raid 1 established for the new one, which will copy all the data to it again
I'm hoping that none of this will affect the network drive share 🤞

I’m gonna ask a really stupid question what oil sales are illegal to China?
What authority does he claim this on?
Unless there is context I am missing, Bannon seems to have lost all contact with reality. Perhaps he would like to make more noise about kingdoms like Saudi Arabia or the UAE and how they should be overthrown. We’ll see how long that lasts.
@GhostOnTheHalfShell i have no idea but if you're familiar with bannon's ideology (and he is far more of an ideologue than a grifter) he is fully invested in the "fourth turning" and the idea that there will be a great power showdown between communist china and capitalist united states.
if you haven't seen the errol morris movie about bannon it's worth watching
The man’s head is stuck in the cold war, which doesn’t surprise me, because it sells to his base. Let’s just ignore that the geopolitical dynamic is between billionaires and the rest of us.
He seems to be missing the fact that the richest men in the world don’t want the US to be a thing.
they want their network state hell scape sustained by their silicon God which controls the world.
He pulls a claim of illegality straight out of his own ass.. I guess, because he believes that Iran sells oil to an ally. I think Russia sells oil to an ally.
China’s importation has declined, but their own energy sources have been developed. And they figure out a way to get their oil.
Which countries does China import crude oil from?
eia.gov/todayinenergy/detail.p…
China’s crude oil imports decreased from a record as refinery activity slowed - U.S. Energy Information Administration (EIA)
Energy Information Administration - EIA - Official Energy Statistics from the U.S. Governmentwww.eia.gov
In addition, if you remember the guardians report last year, that uncovered KSA program to expand oil use in Africa and specifically in supersonic flight because it consumes twice as much fuel as a standard aircraft for a given route.
If you ever wondered what the NASA program I think that’s the X 25. I don’t remember it’s number, but it’s the idea of making supersonic flight less noisy… that’s what it’s about

This is right, smack dab in the middle of the hottest part of the day. The heat stress alone for many people is going to be a challenge and I would recommend anyone going to this to take lots of adequate water sunscreen, of course but make sure that are properly dressed with loose light clothing over your entire body and a hat

The headline here — I think, I’m out of my depth — is that, contrary to what they did before, the Trump admin •did• in fact comply with an emergency order from a judge to stop a deportation flight.
Do not let anyone tell you authoritarianism is a done deal. Judges still have power. Activists still have power. We still have power. Nothing’s certain, nothing’s safe — but nothing is already decided either.
They want your defeatism. They want a fait accompli. Don’t give it to them. toad.social/@KimPerales/115125…

The image depicts a colorful illustration from a children's book. In the foreground, a girl with red hair tied in a ponytail, wearing a blue pajama top with red dots, is looking out of a window. She is positioned on the left side of the image, with her back to the viewer. In front of her, on a desk, is a black server with green and red indicator lights. To the right, a laptop is partially visible, showing a picture of the girl on its screen.
In the background, through the window, two children are standing on a grassy area. One child is wearing an orange shirt and brown pants, while the other is in a blue shirt and blue pants, holding a leash attached to a small dog. The window is framed by blue curtains with star patterns. Above the scene, there is text that reads, "Some people think servers should only be in offices. They might make fun of your home server."

Most “good UI” isn’t good at all. It’s just whatever we’ve been trained to tolerate.
Case in point: for years, anything with too much text was mocked as “bad UX.” Then ChatGPT came along, gave you a blinking cursor and a box—and suddenly walls of text are the peak of interface design. Nothing changed except what people got used to.
Or take macOS. People trip over themselves to praise Apple’s “clean” UI. But what’s actually clean about it? Why does closing every window not quit the app? That’s not intuitive. It’s just something Mac users were conditioned into defending. If Windows did the same thing, there’d be YouTube essays about it.
Same goes for games. The arrow keys used to be the standard for movement. Now, if your game doesn’t use WASD, you’ll get roasted on Steam. Not because WASD is inherently better—it’s just what everyone expects.
The dirty truth is this: UI isn’t about usability. It’s about conformity. Interfaces don’t necessarily become “good” when they solve problems—they become good when people stop complaining.

in reply to John Wilker 👨🏽💻 • • •The image shows a gray woven storage basket on a granite countertop. Inside the basket, there are various items, including a red and white package labeled "KN95 Foldable Protective Mask" with "20 Pcs" and "≥95% PFE" printed on it. Next to the mask package is a white package with a barcode. The basket also contains a blue patterned fabric, a black item with a strap, and a red and white item. The background includes a black mat with a white design and a wooden floor.

The image shows a collection of face masks and a bag on a table. In the foreground, there are several black face masks with the text "SPACE ROGUES" and a graphic of a space-themed character. The masks have elastic ear loops in various colors, including white, blue, and red. A black bag with the word "VOTE" in large white letters is visible, with a patterned fabric underneath. The background includes a wooden floor and a plastic bag with items, possibly straws, on the table. The setting appears to be indoors, possibly in a casual or office environment.

The image shows a collection of items laid out on a dark surface, likely a table or chair. In the foreground, there is a white, translucent plastic mask frame with a grid-like design, partially wrapped in plastic. Below it, a black cord with metal clasps is visible, suggesting it is part of a mask strap. To the right, a clear plastic bag contains white ear loops with red branding, labeled "made in China." The items are organized in a way that suggests they are part of a mask kit, with the mask frame, ear loops, and strap likely intended for assembly. The background features a wooden floor and a gray wall, providing a neutral backdrop for the items.
