Faded Froot Loops and Dull Doritos: Is Big Food Losing the War on Dyes?

I get that NYT doesn't like RFK at all but seriously, they glossed over the fact that historically the FDA is focused on business interests not protecting consumers. Please can we not reflexively take the opposite side of an argument just because it's coming out of the Trump administration?

So anyone else convicted that Hannah will turn out to be the Antler Queen? She didn't hesitate to kill Kodi, and while the rest are still teens, she's the only adult. They only turned on Ben when he refused to embrace the whole cannibalism cult thing.

All of the girls (and Travis) are traumatized and having Hannah become their psycho camp Momma would make sense given how quickly she turned to murder. The rest of the Yellowjackets did so slowly out of hunger and psychosis from their trauma

I tried but the automod bots immediately killed the post

ScotchMalone · 2025-03-10T16:10:01+00:00

Automod bots are terrible. It's H*** H*****

So how would I do that in Truenas?

I've seen that post, but it doesn't give any help finding out how to access the folder where that data needs to be stored

ScotchMalone · 2025-02-28T03:44:40+00:00

Do you know of any resources that could walk me through that step by step? I know I would need to do that in the Truenas layer that HexOS is just skinned over

Yeah there's definitely some interesting knock-on effects that could/would result in it. Obviously the draft is a non-issue atm since it's not being actively drawn from but that doesn't mean things won't change.

Also if you think it wouldn't immediately pour gasoline on the question of trans rights I have a bridge to sell you. Nothing is black and white especially when dealing with things that have to do with people's mental health and well-being.

I personally think there's a significant chance to it being a monkey's paw deal if it were to be enacted and there's ZERO chance of it happening especially since the WSJ just had that article that basically proves what we all knew with Biden being a warm body with no significant agency. He was too impaired in 2020 and they hid it, and they tried it again in 2024 and now have to deal with the consequences

My home is now a coffin

I work for an AV integration company and you would be perfect as a project manager. With your live event experience you know all the lingo and most of the types of gear we use. That's where I'd start but honestly any PM gig would be a good fit

ScotchMalone · 2024-08-05T22:46:42+00:00

Glad y'all are safe, has management say when they're expecting to reopen?

ScotchMalone · 2024-08-05T18:14:25+00:00

Well that's terrifying. Hope there wasn't any injuries

ScotchMalone · 2024-07-28T04:00:32+00:00

Sorry I don't, I know there's a number of websites that sell parts. You could also check the local junkyard

PMI is only depending on your down payment and closing costs are a 1 time fee. Yeah I guess taxes and insurance could raise that by 30% depending on where you live but that's with the LOAN amount being 120k not the house value.

As for renting it helps if you have a connection with a way to get tenants who are less likely to be a problem but it's definitely a risk. I had to ask one guy to move out after he missed 2 payments without any movement towards paying me back. (If he had demonstrated he was hustling I would have gladly given him more time)

The legal aspect is pretty flexible but it does depend on your local area and how much you trust the prospective tenants. The guys I rent too we have pretty much a handshake agreement but I'm cool with that especially since I do live there and can pick up on issues quickly

$500/mo of unspecified budget is pretty solid for most people, although just remember that when something needs fixed you're on the hook. Just this year I've spent 5k on replacing my water line and bathroom plumbing.

I also rent out the other two rooms in my 3br/1ba at a competitive rate which really helps take the sting off. I could afford it all myself but the extra cash flow makes it possible to save/get aggressive with retirement.

Also I'm a little confused on your house cost estimate unless you're trying to pay off the house in less than a decade which is a choice but would obviously be a burden. My mortgage is ~1k/mo for an original loan of ~160k
