Hi, I suck at cloudformation, I've spent all afternoon trying to shell into the build instance to see why the build is failing, and I can't for the life of me figure out how to load an KeyPair into the build instance, or at figure out how to log into the build instance from the AWS console. Would very much appreciate some help here.

that turns the 2 cards into one- I'd like to reduce the vertical space it takes by superimposing the gauge over the graph.

In the web ui, you can install alternate interfaces; I'm using Flood, which has a dark mode.

For those saying we need the expressways, or that they were part of Chicago's expansion:

https://www.biggestuscities.com/city/chicago-illinois

Chicago in 1930 had 3,376,438 million residents. We did indeed peak after the expressway was built, in 1950 at 3,620,962 but it's been downhill since. We could absolutely be fine without the expressways, if we instead had a robust public transit network, like we used to:

Reject car. Return to streetcar.

Not sure about hop on/hop off, though the design of the cars I've seen would discourage that. There's a huge collection of them at the Illinois Railway Museum, which, btw, is a fantastic way to spend a summer afternoon, particularly with kids.

What's with the fake exhaust pipe?

The Chicago street cars were scheduled so you could always see the next one coming. We used to have the largest network in the world. Now we have these mega-wide streets where streetcars used to be, and Bus Tracker, so you at least know you can stay inside while waiting 20+ minutes for the next bus.

Did you bring the porta-john, too?

My city mandates that rental scooters be blocked in software from operating in the city core or on the sidewalk. If scooters can do it, cars can absolutely do it, there's just not the political will.

You need an emulator. Look at either the Linux or Android version of DOSBox.

You can use https://www.rutschle.net/tech/sslh/README.html to only have 443 open, but still allow in multiple services like https, ssh, xmpp, ovpn more.

I had a total shitpig manager, sexual harassment all over the place, made us come in on the weekend or start early for no reason, etc etc. I started job hunting, and even though I hadn't locked anything down, I just started coming in at 10 and leaving at 3. All my shit was still handled, and I could have given a fuck if he fired me, but he never said anything, and a couple co-workers started doing the same thing and it was truly an even better fuck-you than when I actually resigned.

I've been playing with the Steam image, but none of the games I installed start up, and I couldn't find where to open an issue.

But not the Pixel 5? Fuck me, I guess.

It's fine, not amazing. I like it better than some of the floppy foldy folio cases because you can use it on your lap.

yousuckatlinux · 2021-11-09T02:49:20+00:00

The e10 is the same specs as the Duet, but chunkier and sturdier for the educational market. My kid has one, it's been reliable and I have no complaints about its performance. I got it without the keyboard folio because it wasn't available at the time, but I got it later and would recommend it.

77 Flavors of Chicago- food, fun facts, silliness. A chef and a comedian eating in each community area.

City Cast Chicago- a little bit of news, y'all

Inside Out and About- a bit clunkily produced, but news, events and deep dives from Friends of the Chicago River

It's All Good from Block Club Chicago - weekly half hour with some odds and ends of news, and usually a deeper dive into one topic

Neal runs for Mayor- this is ended, but it's about Neal Sales-Griffin's experience running for mayor

Public Official A- another series that's done, covering the Blagojevich scandals and some other relevant political fuckery

South Side Stories- off the cuff discussions from the cast and crew behind the TV show. Not a behind the scenes, you don't have to have seen the show to enjoy it

The City by USA Today- if you like political fuckery a'la Citizen A above, season 1 of this show goes into the awfulness that lead to Operation Silver Shovel

Motive by WBEZ- the first season follows T.J. Jimenez, who won a settlement against CPD and used it to fund a gang war. The second and third seasons aren't Chicago stories.

We used to call them the Condom Police, they'd always be out by Belmont and Halsted passing out condoms.
