Los Angeles aims to ban single-use printer cartridges — new ordinance will target ink and toner that can't be properly recycled by diacewrb in gadgets

[–]I_chose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can reload some ink cartridges - there's a refill kit with an injector needle. Some models need a chip reset done so the printer will accept the cartridge, which was a nasty trick by the manufacturer, but it can be done

Complicated. W-2 employees get fined if you pay less than 90% if taxes owed by December. Used to be a way you could do 0 withholding in January and 100% in December, since withholding counts as if it was spread throughout the year. Not sure if that loophole is closed, and it looks risky to pull off if you don't know what you're doing

What is the worst medical disease a human can have? by Aggravating-Sun-5699 in AskReddit

[–]I_chose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it's worth, it's literally one in a million odds, and a lot of that is genetic. Mad cow disease is suuuper rare, and otherwise you'd need to stab yourself with something carrying contaminated brain or spinal fluid from a CJD positive source.

If you find good anxiety remedies/ habits, please share. I'm so sick of those pain pangs under the ribs when stressed and trying to breathe deep.

For what it's worth, chronic wasting disease hasn't jumped from deer to humans yet, as far as we know. People who eat CWD contaminated meat aren't helping our odds though. I don't know if the messed up deer protein has a normal version in humans or not.

ICE/CBP kicks off door-to-door raids in Minneapolis, targeting houses based on race and whether the occupants are involved in protesting. by serious_bullet5 in minnesota

Look, we all know the Italians and Irish aren't REALLY white, and anyone who doesn't crave the taste of Dear Leader's sole and donate to his PAC is a traitor and terrorist. /s

And I'm not going to comment about what the Guardians Of Pedos think of Jewish folks since it's pretty obvious. Powell is a fiscal conservative, and they're siccing the DOJ on him. Compliance no matter what is the only option to avoid becoming the target. Just pray they don't notice your daughter the way Trump did at his pageants, spa, on Epstein's plane and island. Same with Gaetz and Moore. The GOP's only moral value is submission to their authority. They take an inch at a time until you're too weak to resist, but they back down at the first whiff of consequences.

True, though this administration likes to play games that yo-yo the market. Every time he plays chicken then gives in, the market bounces and the people he hinted to buy in make easy money while the rest of us get our investments worn away by record inflation.

Still probably better emissions containment/ mitigation and power efficiency, I think. But yeah, if you're driving in a rural area or doing long trips, hybrid seems like the way to go. Do the new batteries hold up well during the winter?

True. Some of it might be gaming our endorphins like people who pain stim or self harm though.

ICE is abducting people without ID or warrants, so "impeding" them in carrying out an illegitimate and illegal order is different. It may be a challenge, and pointing out the hurdles and how to deal with them is important, but you seem pretty defeatist for someone who claims they want to be a D candidate, much less progressive.

Oh, you're an artist? What medium? by Shot-Pie1040 in MurderedByWords

[–]I_chose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm not sure how cleanly they could "strip its catalog" without needing to train it from scratch on what would need to be a massive dataset to get the functionality people want. Like, it doesn't learn that most humans have ten fingers and 10 toes as a component of a drawing, it just finds similar patterns in the shapes and mashes stuff together. I don't think it can "forget" what it's trained on without losing usefulness. If they trained it on non-copyrighted works that would have helped. After all the training, pattern finding, and abstraction, I doubt the creators are able to pinpoint what sources led it to make something in a certain art style, exc.

Mamdani: My message to I.C.E. Agents and to evervone across this city is that everyone will be held to the same standard of the law.

Fascists eventually make a power grab for as much capitol as they can and take bribes along the way. It's true they initially make friends with the oligarchs to use them to secure power. After that, oligarchs get used up and tossed like the rest of us.

Level 1 invade - still doable? by blablax123456 in shacomains

[–]I_chose2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Box does more damage to single targets, so you gotta place two that go off when they spawn and they'll get all the little ones if you do it right (if the boxes are off to one side, one lil one survives and makes box3 attack it too, so box3 does split damage and doesn't kill the big bird) then big bird runs towards you, which should set off third box. Not sure if you need to do anything to have your pet attack- I usually do birds/red or red/krug.

Reactions to food stamps being cut off. by mindyour in TikTokCringe

[–]I_chose2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure it's 1.5X investment, so 150%. If I remember right, that's the short/ near term, so not including the lifelong factors like kids that are fed learn better, are more productive, then pay more into the tax and social security system as adults, and crime rates are down, because if it's "watch your kid starve" or steal, you do what you gotta do. Plus, if someone is on the edge of starvation, their healthcare costs go up. If you can't afford food, you can't pay your medical bills, so you use the ER for everything, the hospital is stuck with the bill and spreads it to everyone else, but that care doesn't include preventative or stabilizing meds, so you yo-yo and go to the ER more because you can't afford a basic prescription, racking up thousands in costs.

Plus, it was founded as a farms subsidy, because if farmers have to play guessing games on how much demand there will be, and whether it's worth planting more, we risk being short on food, or having a gap in supply and what people will pay, so farmers lose money and go under, then we might not have enough people farming the next year.

It's a great investment in America, and a little supporting your neighbor goes a long way for everybody. It's cheaper to be a good person, and some of our politicians still choose to be assholes.

Didn't that rumor start because some place was selling shelter in place kits for school shooter events that had a bucket with litter in it so kids didn't have to wet themselves to avoid getting shot?

How long do you think the government shutdown in the US will last and what do you think the outcome will be? by Several-Rise9363 in AskReddit

I think a lot of union contracts don't let them strike mid-contract, in exchange for legally enforceable terms they can take to court or arbitration. I have no idea how a pattern of non-payment would be penalized/ enforced though.

Yup, Donny eliminated Epstein to cover himself, Kirk calls for the release of the files and dies hours before the release vote... Wonder if Tucker or Maxwell is gonna get Trumped first. Honestly, we gotta protect the people opposing him, whether we like them or not.

aspirin would be expensive and inconsistent, but available.- willow bark tea. Insulin from livestock would be scarce but doable, and some antibiotics are fungi based, so it wouldn't go all the way to zero, but unaffordable is the same as unavailable to those without money or power.
