Wat je zegt ben jezelf, met je kop door de helft Lost my Holmgang, was deported from Norway.

Non binary or half?

San Francisco Gay Area?

The right response to the Maui wildfires is not to ridicule the climate hoax.

The right response is to point out that forcing a green agenda on power companies, have resulted in some tradeoffs, and unless proven otherwise, skimping on maintenance and tree trimming causes fires, and people die because of the idiotic green deity that progressives follow.

Repeat after me:

The 100 or so dead people on Maui were sacrificed on a green altar!

The green movement murdered them!

End of discussion!

Current price quote is $265, compared to $185 seven years ago, same season.

This is a 43% price increase, but I think today's price quote does include breakfast, I believe that was not included last time.

Cable modem +

4 core celeron pfsense +

master wifi transmitter +

8 port switch +

piehole

altogether use 20 watts. Not as much as I had expected!

But even with pihole, it still takes Privacy Badger and uBlock origin to get an ad free browsing.

Finally the adblocking is working!

I had to disable local DNS resolution on the pfsense firewall.

I still blame the green movement. We know how to make power lines more hardy, but Hawaii has drunk the green new deal cool aid fully, and unless proven otherwise, I will assume they were and are using the 30 to 40 cents per kWh contrary to public interest.

Hawaii should use nuclear or coal, they have insufficient storage for their net zero goals, and no natural gas pipeline.

I don't think the intern that came up with this headline knows the meaning of the word "trigger".

Buying darkening cellular shades from Lowe's, one of the three they shipped me was a previously opened, and presumably returned by other customers.

This was used or refurbished condition effectively, but without an open box discount.

The incentive to pawn off undesirable stuff that doesn't sell in the store on online shoppers is also why I never buy groceries online.

Most of Oslo didn't look like that in 1983, just this particular building sorely needed some paint. 😀

Looks like 2-3 km from downtown to the north or east, I can't read the street names.
