No. Soundproofing foam doesn’t do anything to protect you from it.

Well, that’s just lovely. I don’t know how they expect to pull off $4.5 trillion dollars in tax cuts without a) severely gutting Medicare/Medicaid, b) adding trillions to our deficit, or c) both.

The next few months are going to have my anxiety levels at their peak as we start to see the effects of everything. Much of what Trump wants done has been held back by the courts because it is Congress with the “power of the purse” that dictates what money is spent where. With this, that opens the floodgates.

So, in other words, Trump tasked Elon Musk to hire a someone to play the Battlefield World of US Police Soldier games*, and write up a plan based on that.

*yes, I know that isn’t an actual game. They’re all the same to me. Generic copy paste FPS soldier games.

For weather outlooks, I am a huge fan of Ryan Hall.

I wonder if we should try to get a sticky’d thread of ‘alternate news sources’ together for various topics?

To start. Next will be those who oppose him politically. I have little doubt that we would utilize voter registry to specifically target registered Democrats to “volunteer” in labor camps once the realization that the agricultural workforce has been run out of the country.

Oh, and he is. But no doubt he has people like Musk telling him how, even if Musk wasn’t having Tesla stock fold in front of him, his tariffs are going to kill his car sales (especially the cyber truck which has a ton of aluminum).

He knows. He’s been told. But he’s sticking to his story of how tariffs are a “tax break” on the people, it is other governments that pay them, and has his press secretary saying the same, even going so far as to throw insults at agencies who correctly call them out on their bullshit.

Trump is dumb, but not so dumb that he doesn’t know exactly what he’s doing. He just doesn’t care about consequences because he’s neither faced them ever in his life, nor does he intend to face them in the future.

If I’m sideloading apps, it is usually because I want nothing to do with their storefront or nonsense.

Not a war crime the first time. Sit down, Donald.

My plans. Plans for everything, and plans for those plans if they fail, and tertiary plans. I love plans. SOPs (standard operating procedures). I’d rather have a solid plan for everything reasonable (and some unreasonable) than all the gear in the world with no plan. Plans documented, memorized, printed and digitized. I had a very logistics-heavy role in the military, and as a civilian with a family in this day and age of so much uncertainty, I’m honestly more focused on them than I was when I was serving.

Oh, this is just fucking lovely. WTF, people.

Right now, a Heltec 3. Better antenna though, mounted on a pole. I have an even better antenna coming soon with a cable so I can move the unit inside and have it on one of my solar batteries, since the little 3000mah one is good, but won’t last long.

Noted, and added. Headline was pulled from the URL, I didn’t want to editorialize, but this is a good point.

Huh. Well, that’s a nice feature Reddit doesn’t have. Ability to correct post headlines.

one of those better be a new Stargate

Advocate for antivax bullshit that kills people? Sure! Encourage politicians to stop live-saving cancer research, gut the VA, and reduce safety standards that will have more people suffering? Cool beans!

Oh, you don’t like that and want to voice your opinion? GFY

Wonder if we can convince the mods there to put in a sticky post their respective lemmy community?

I hope not. A lot of us just joined, or will be joining soon, especially given Reddit’s move to start banning people who even upvote content that Reddit doesn’t like. I myself jumped here from Reddit this morning. Same username.
