Huge, if true. I think a lot of people in rural areas need to be exposed to something besides Christian radio…

And it really could benefit people who have jobs that can be WFH now–people could live in these dying towns with real incomes, money to spend, and kids in the school systems.

I hope they get it right.

Agree–I’m seeing a lot of what I called ‘quiet quitting’ lately. The regulars are posting a lot less, or not at all. I’m not ready to burn-it-all-down, because I want to be able to lure people over later when this is a bit more mature. But it already feels different there.

Reddit is becoming an unusable garbage site.

'Tis.

I think those new drugs look really game-changing. I know they aren’t affordable yet, but soon the insurers will realize they are cheaper than the downstream costs of diabetes.

I was reading in the NYT yesterday that they were making people change behavior not just on hunger, but on the “food noise” that a lot of people have. So this will change the situation in a household and might have additional social consequences for people’s consumption.

Looks like a jurisdiction thing–a Canadian ship launched it though.

The submersible was reported missing after it was overdue by a couple of hours on Sunday evening, according to Chief Mi’sel Joe — head of the Mi’kmaq band which owns the ship from which the submersible is launched.

The #Boston coast guard is involved? Weird.

I just wanted to repost this to Boston, but that’s something I don’t know how to do. I posted the link --but is there a way here to repost?

Yah, Leaf 2016 model. I got ticketed by the city for parking the wrong direction. I tried to explain to them that they chose to site the charger in a way that caused this problem, but they said they didn’t care and don’t do it…

LOL, same here. Most of the time I knew, but in a rental car or something, I could never remember…

My charging port is in the front center now–and this is causing me problems with some street chargers because I can’t get the cable far enough over. There’s no arrow for that…
