Wheat doesn’t actually require all that much. Soak it in water, and it becomes gruel. Let gruel sit around for awhile, the liquid becomes a rudimentary ale. Boil off the liquid, you have a rudimentary bread. Want to make it easier to eat? Grind it before you add the water.
Every other use is an evolution of those basic concepts.
There are a number of potential fixes.
Universal healthcare is one. Completely separate employment from healthcare.
Restore the tax structure we had in our most prosperous decade: 91% top-tier rate. Nobody ever paid that rate; nobody will ever pay that rate. That rate compels businesses to spend $10,000 on “business expenses” rather than keep $900 and pay Uncle Sam $9100. They get to keep $10,000 worth of tangible goods and services, purchased on the market. Or, $900 cash, that they can convert into financial instruments.
We could assign all healthcare bills to the richest person in the country. When we take enough from Musk that Bezos catches up, they can split the bill between them. When they get down to Zuck, they split it three ways. Nobody gets to be the richest. The competition switches from dollars to number of lives saved.
Or, we could roll out the guillotines again. Behead the most problematic tranche of capitalists (as evidenced by their degree of wealth). Repeat as necessary.
The capitalist fucks are swinging the whip. The 25-hour limit is the whip they are swinging. Both are a problem.
I have legitimately never seen this meme.
I’ve seen dozens of posts and articles commenting on it, but I have never actually seen this meme in the wild.
My old PC locks up every 4 to 48 hours. It would make a terrible NAS.
Fight club?
Wake me up when we get to #GuillotineParty.
lemmy tells me to go fuck myself.
Well, get on with it.
He’s fitter and smarter than Donald, but neither LeBron nor Leonardo.
Everybody. Fucking everybody.

I would prioritize a VPN ahead of an ISP. Free Open/Public APs are not uncommon in my area.
One of the first deals I did in real estate (~2006) was a sale at 115% loan-to-value, no money down, seller-paid closing costs. The buyers received $2500 at closing. Nobody batted an eye.
AFAIK, when a law says something like “This section does not [do something]” It’s usually because some other law explicitly prohibits [something]. Without such language, the two laws could be seen as conflicting.
I think excluding girls from boys teams violates Title IX.
The law in question doesn’t actually mandate that school sports teams must be designated “based on the biological sex of the students who participate” in the sport. If you read the law, it only prohibits biological males from participating in female sports. It does not prohibit biological females from participating in male sports. Quite the contrary, it specifically acknowledges that all students, regardless of sex or gender, are allowed to participate in “boys” sports.

The principal really needs to read the law. This school is so fucked.

The law in question only prohibits biological males from participating in female sports. It does not prohibit females from joining boys teams. Compare and contrast sections “B” and “C”:
B. Athletic teams or sports designated for “females”, “women” or “girls” may not be open to students of the male sex.
C. This section does not restrict the eligibility of any student to participate in any interscholastic or intramural athletic team or sport designated as being for “males”, “men” or “boys” or designated as “coed” or “mixed”.
I also thought this was pretty interesting:
E. Any student who is deprived of an athletic opportunity or suffers any direct or indirect harm as a result of a school knowingly violating this section has a private cause of action for injunctive relief, damages and any other relief available under law against the school.
Government is also the entity that will be prosecuting/persecuting you when they don’t like what you have to say.
Not with that attitude.
Be the change you want to see in the world.
ISPs like to offer, say $65 for service (without committing to a specific speed… Their 100/100 service is “up to 100Mbps” and not a guarantee.)
They then want to charge a modem rental fee - another $5/mo. They want to charge a wifi access point rental fee - another $5/mo. They want to charge various regulatory fees, universal access fees, taxes, etc. They want their advertisements to say “$65/mo”, but they want to collect more like $90/mo.
You can buy your own modem and save that $5/mo (but they often push back against that, claiming your modem isn’t compatible, or that other customers have complained about inferior service with that modem). You can use your own wifi AP and save that $5/mo (but again, they discourage it…) You can’t get away from the regulatory fees.
If thr only thing electronics are 100% efficient
Heat pumps are much more than 100% electrically efficient. They are around 300% electrically efficient.
Watt for watt, a heat pump sinks a lot more heat into your house than either a resistive heating element or a raspberry pi.
All you need to do to make wheat edible is soak it in water to make it soft enough to chew. Wheat in water is “gruel”.
You can improve upon it by boiling, which will dehydrate the gruel into a primitive bread. The drained, starchy liquid, if left to sit for awhile, will become a primitive ale. Grinding makes it easier to eat.
Every dietary use is an evolutionary progression from soaking wheat in water.
