Wow, that's the first time I've seen the source of the bald meme

Yeah I was there. About 200 feet from the main flash point.

There were quite a lot of people as we were marching from the park to the ice facility and starting packing in tighter. It was a miracle there was no trample situation; everyone was calm and shuffled away orderly even though we could not see nor breathe.

Couldn't be prouder of my city for doing it well.

Unfortunately I passed by many children, pets, and strollers during the march. I hope they are all doing well and I haven't stopped thinking about you all (including the little girl with the sign made with paper saying "I hate ICE"). Stay strong and safe you all!

Hi guys, I couldn't think of a more qualified community for this question.

My trustworthy T470s' USB C port (front right) is failing - only connecting to a charging cable when at a particular angle.

Is there an effective way to swap out that peripheral? I have replaced so many things in it and would not mind one more to keep her alive :)

Currently running via dock and regular charging port but that doesn't fit my lifestyle the same.

Have you heard of webtrees? Self hosted, similar enough to Ancestry and you can upload relevant media to their entry. Not sure if it can handle a few hundred gigs but you could probably host the media on a separate program to reduce the DB strain.

I've used it when my wife was getting into genealogy. Still running in the background for the last few years with little to no maintenance.

My wife and I go through about 4lbs a month using mainly Chemex and Areopress. Used to get (decent) crummy coffee at Aldi and Grocery Outlet, occasionally splurging for local roasts at the coffee shops. Still, I calculate that's about $35 or so a month on beans, Chemex filters should probably be calculated with how pricey they can be - napkin maths say $11 roughly for a months supply.

$46USD ain't bad compared to my other vices 😪

Curious to hear if I'm around the average spender or how it tracks! Maybe you have some tips on cheap but amazing coffee? I wouldn't know unless I asked y'all

You joke but my old FJ Cruiser requires you to turn the key to accessory, turn it off, turn the key back to accessory, open and close the door three times, turn the key back off, turn the key to accessory while holding the odometer reset button for 5 seconds and then it will enter pairing mode for the remote fob.

It made me feel the same joy as pressing the option on my Android phone 5 times to enter development mode back in the mid 2010s but it gets old quick.

I find it's going to need to get even more convenient for the general public to be interested in it. Federation almost needs to be a 'background' process that the end user doesn't really need to deal with. Otherwise, it'll be a little too complicated or obscure to comprehend for most. I know it isn't rocket science but we're talking about the general public, here.
