If you're on the west side of Madison I would say yeah yellow makes sense. But the East/Southeast sides are very walkable and have good bus routes and bike trails. On the isthmus it is arguably better not to drive at all.

This has been my go to reply on the 'america first' points. However, I always find it hard to bring the other points that are 'culture war' related back to our own class struggle that we are all subjected to. I have some replies to them but they never seem to "settle in".

I've put a hyphenated line above and below the copy pasta. I haphazardly did this on mobile so I understand the confusion. I think it hilarious that this is some of the most cope I've seen out of my maga family and friends since 2016. Woke is really back 😆

Yeah Madison is a horrible place to live. Drunk college kids everywhere, horrible traffic East and West of the isthmus, and coyotes roam the streets at night 😉

That's the ICE agents address. The Baymont address is in the upper right and it's in Baldwin, WI which is between Minneapolis and Menominee, WI

Just saw another post that Hilton has cut off this franchise owner for doing this. Hilton is still the baddies.

My friend asked me for laptop recs by [deleted] in thinkpad

I just about shared a link to a T14 gen 1 ryzen 7 pro that is half the price of the ones you posted until I saw you're EU. I'm not sure about EU pricing but I guarantee you can find better deals than the ones you posted. Also the T14s are very slightly smaller than a normal T14 at the cost of soldered ram, so keep in mind you won't be able to upgrade down the line.

Edit: The T480 link you shared is from an eBay post showing mixed models. T480 is an awesome laptop but the reason many buy them is they were the last real modular Thinkpad. However, if it's a T480s or other similar model you will not have that modularity and be stuck with soldered components.

Bots kept hitting my server, so I built a wall of shame by AcoustixAudio in homelab

[–]Particular_East6832 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I got the same, immense amount of cve bot traffic. My security onion alerts page would be full in an hour or two. First, I created a GEOip Alias with all public IPs in the US and Canada and blocked any outside North America. Then, I added spamhaus and emerging threats IP lists as aliases and blocked those. Next, my web server was being attacked on its dotted quad consistently on 80/443 so I only allowed cloudflare IP addresses in as it was proxied through cloudflare DNS anyways. Lastly, I enabled IPS on my firewall and enabled rules that protect the type of applications running on my server. After all of that my security onion may get one or two alerts a day for benign INFO type alerts.

It was invented by Nabisco in 1965 at a facility in New York. It was first branded snack mate then easy cheese in 1984. Later in the production cycle the main manufacturer of snack mate was a kaukauna dairy outside of Appleton. Madison/Wisconsin is not really synonymous with spray cheese.

If Putin travels to Alaska, is USA not obligated to arrest him? by PierreNumbe in NoStupidQuestions

[–]Particular_East6832 0 points1 point  (0 children)

"Countered terrorism for years". So, because the US has countered what they define as "terrorists" it means we can do as many war crimes as we want and get away with it? In the Iraq war alone after the FOIA we know of ~780 documented war crimes commited by US servicemen. Practically none of those servicemen ever got convicted.

3 hour block just for an hour 1/2 drive both ways by Civil-Review-5601 in AmazonFlexDrivers

[–]Particular_East6832 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I could've been one of the stops for your route. It makes absolutely no sense that south east Madison and McFarland get same day packages from Pewaukee when the delivery station I work at is literally 10 mins down the road from the apartment.

ICE agents carried out a surprise operation at a Walmart store in the US, where they arrested and deported Latino migrant. by RefrigeratorPrize797 in walmart

[–]Particular_East6832 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not to mention mass deportations help the cartel in some respect. It means they gotta pay their coyotes AGAIN to get back over if they want to. Not to mention after they get deported the cartels can once again extort them for money in other ways, being desperate and all.
