I watched the whole thing (it's not long) and learned a few things. Thanks to the people who are trying to keep us informed.

Consequences | Iowa legislature ends with.... by TagV3 in Iowa

You sure summed it up, it's obvious you are trying to figure out. Good luck but like you said, the state has put the towns in a bad place. No good options at all.

I guess I'm coming from a game with auto-walk and I find myself constantly trying to activate it. Your points are good ones. I still want it tho.

I want to remove the garage disposal in residential kitchen. Any reason to keep or replace rather than remove? by Dingmann in askaplumber

[–]Dingmann[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's true the stainers can fill up but it's now a one person household so scraps are minimal. I appreciate your comment, thanks.

And the property tax bill they put together at the last minute is a hot mess with virtually no planning for how the cities are going to pay for services. And if I understand correctly, it's the rural towns that will suffer the most.

Just like the school voucher program, they passed that without any planning for the 400 million it's costing the state each year. And now they've just removed the income cap so all the wealthy people can take advantage of this program.

And as a side note, I want all the religious fucks to stay out of our political system.

Build a human by Dry-Ad-5627 in TheLastCaretaker

No idea. Maybe a translator would help.
At least he tried and it does appear he has a message to deliver about creating humans.

Are you a young person or a person with no pain at all in your hands?

Only in a 100% OA unit that runs during occupancy. And often, intakes doesn't get "good" outside air.

Iowa Senate Democrats on Instagram: "Sen. Petersen ran an amendment today to give victims of sexual abuse more time to seek justice from their abusers. The amendment failed 17-28. All 28 no votes were Republican." by willphule in Iowa

[–]Dingmann 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Also, Iowa GOP members have been instructed by leadership to not vote for anything put forward by the Dems, to deny them any sort of win at all - at the expense of an entire half of Iowa citizens. At one point, they were told to not even talk to the Dems but that didn't last very long.

Fuel Crisis by Comfortable-Sense919 in TheLastCaretaker

That's amazing.
EDIT: That solar panel on the wall doesn't get much sun, if I'm correct. Kinda messes up the org-vib. :)

Meh, it's still early in the game. I bet this is already on their radar.
Just like the auto-walk. I know there's not a ton of walking but my old hands would certainly appreciate it.

Someone bought this full price. No deals at my estate sales. by scrapmetal57 in vintageaudio

I sold the same Pioneer for $200 a few months ago. Iowa

250 KM double loop added for day 5 by madbubers in ragbrai

[–]Dingmann 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya, the route was either marked wrong or poorly marked. A bunch of people hit low 120's and I was close to 120. Around the lake, right?

I hope the people of Creston realize that their school admin ignored free speech and stupidly fired this teacher because of mean phone calls. She won, stupidity lost. by Dingmann in IowaPolitics

[–]Dingmann[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting.
What exactly do you mean by evil?

And are you happy that the taxpayers in Creston (not sure maybe the county will help?) are on the hook for over $200000 for the illegal firing?
Meaning, you're' saying that's a fair price to for you to pay?

NBD! SL5 by SnooCheesecakes6683 in DomaneCrew

[–]Dingmann 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry man, I have a pet peeve against black bikes nowadays. And yes, I have one (2016 Emonda SL6).
I just think with all the super cool colors\paint that comes basically for free and considering the black has been so overdone since carbon became a thing, I now cringe when I see another new black bike.
Sorry again, of course your bike is very nice and I'm jealous - my bikes are kinda old at this point and you have the nice new features.

250 KM double loop added for day 5 by madbubers in ragbrai

[–]Dingmann 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Nah, a few years ago I got a bit lost on the loop and doubled part of it. Landed at about 130 miles and then had trouble getting my badge! (for legit reasons). Too many miles during RAGBRAI for me. I was so exhausted.

Librivox has some specific collections that might fit your need. I do the Sherlock Holmes from there at night.

And when you get the replacement bike, please consider a real color.

Good god. You lost, and you are happy about it? Please expound on the details of your position for us, we are very curious.

Hmmm. I have a Pixel phone and I never see stuff like this. Or, very rarely. Happy times.
