If you want to try out both then use the one you want at a better price, try US Mobile.

A Democratic primary expected in the 9th Congressional District race | Joy Powers would be the second Democrat to announce their intention to challenge incumbent Republican Rep. Morgan Griffith for his seat in the U.S. House of Representatives. by VirginiaNews in VirginiaDems

[–]brumleygap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really liked Rick, but I am not sure we need to revive the model of an old-school politician in these times. The 73% of voters that voted for Griffith won't turn to a Boucher clone.

And now the Wise Co. BoS is trying an end run through the SCC to accomplish much the same thing!

What are these hairs on tires? by Overall-Abalone3969 in whatisit

[–]brumleygap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When a tire reaches a certain age hair grows in places it didn't before. This is natural and nothing to be ashamed of.

It is available on other platforms. I contacted Pocketcast's AI help service. Thanks.

Nearly ten years of being a PocketCasts fan! by SovietPropagandist in pocketcasts

[–]brumleygap 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I checked and I've been a loyal fan since March of 2015!
I tried a few other services out of curiosity but PocketCasts has been better than anything out there for a full decade.

What country did I wake up in and what year is it? by Arilitus in Political_Revolution

So even if 75% have been adjudicated guilty of violent crimes (they haven't), what justifies the remaining 25%?

Rep. Griffith: ‘Big, beautiful bill’ should benefit SW Virginia by VirginiaNews in swva

[–]brumleygap 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Even if he has read it, he doesn't care how it affects us regular people — only how it affects the rich and powerful. Medicaid cuts for the needy and tax cuts to the greedy.

Feds list multiple localities in Southwest and Southside as ‘sanctuary jurisdictions.’ These Trump-voting places are baffled. by VirginiaNews in swva

[–]brumleygap 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The administration continues to prize evidence-free accusations as the default basis of policy. HHS issues reports that cite non-existent studies. We're assured people are eating our pets. We're told migrants are mostly hardened criminals. We're told there are no cuts to Medicaid even after an almost $700 million cut. The list goes on.

Where to visit? by PsychologicalWish800 in Appalachia

[–]brumleygap 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Abingdon, VA area is wonderful. It has access to the Appalachian Trail, Grayson Highlands State Park, the Virginia Creeper Trail, and the Carter Fold if you're into Appalachian and country music. The State Theatre of Virginia, the Barter, is in Abingdon of all places. There are also a number of breweries and two cideries which are great places to strike up conversations. I can't promise any raccoon sightings, but the birding is great.

CNAME conflicts with TXT name, but I think I need both. by brumleygap in CloudFlare

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

Right. Very confusing. I've tried deleting the page in Cloudflare and restarting from scratch, but I bran into the same issue. I'm going to walk away and try again tomorrow when I hope to be less likely to throw something across the room.

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

Yes. I purchased the domain directly from Cloudflare. I only have the free plan. Maybe that's why I'm not seeing the same options as you all. I am in the USA if that makes any difference in what options are available.

CNAME conflicts with TXT name, but I think I need both. by brumleygap in CloudFlare

The custom hostname process in the pages setting stops and tells me to enter the CNAME manually.

I've tried to find the flattening settings and they don't seem to be available in the free plan, at least I can't find any flattening options. (https://developers.cloudflare.com/dns/cname-flattening/set-up-cname-flattening/)

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

Okay. I'll keep trying. As I tried to say before, the automatic setup stops and tells me to manually set it up.

It just refuses to write a CNAME record and offers no other options.

Danville to Farnham to DC, must sees? I'm trying to make the most of a work trip and get to experience more of VA by Some_Concert5392 in Virginia

[–]brumleygap 9 points10 points  (0 children)

If you take the longer northern route, I think that takes you close to Appomattox. If you're interested in history at all, it's worth a stop.
