This may not help at all, but I worked at a toxic workplace. I got good at recognizing when I was being manipulated. Eventually, I learned that if I hid the hurt and acted as if the jabs didn't hurt, it would send the toxic folks into a toxic rage, but the ironic part is that they could not complain to management about me not being affected.
One day, I was called from one of the people from a recorded line (certain customer facing phones were always recorded, you could even hear the beeps). After the call, I told my manager, we went to HR, who pulled the recording and that person was moved to another area. I left shortly after for other reasons.
There's already some good discussion here. A little less drastic is a soft succession. It's already happened and is happening. The blog articulates it much better than i could, but the essence is that the US constitution already has been interpreted to give state laws a sort if priority over feseral laws. Additionally, states can apply financial pressure to the federal government.
Near rhe end of the blog he ponders whether this could result in a shell fedwral government.
I came here to see if it was the early signs of the demise of YouTube. I secretly want all these content producers to move to a privacy-respecting platform, especially those who produce tech or privacy related content.
Now, for why I don't watch videos anymore, the medium isn't as easily consumed by me. I prefer text. At home, it's noisy and I get interrupted every 90 seconds. I lose interest quickly and fast forwarding isn't as easy as scanning text for a topic shift. My mind wanders on some topics, internally exploring that topic deeper. With text, i can just stop reading. With video, i need to realize that I'm processing a thought and hit pause, then rewind a bit. I get interrupted a lot. On the bus, I need to remember headphones and I hate when people shoulder surf. That's harder to do with text. Give me a plain text RSS feed that I can read anytime.
What if this is not to sue The Guardian but as a way to disclose their sources so that they can uncover the sources of the leaks?
I'm loving all the Canadians in this thread.
If you're a kind person, there's always something to apologize for. I was taught a long time ago that it was OK to apologize, but that you should add " for..." to the end and if it still sounds OK then you should say it.
"I'm sorry for hurting your feelings." "I'm sorry that you don't enjoy the meal that I prepared for the family." "I'm sorry your face looks like an anus." "I'm sorry that you're too stupid to understand that I'm not complimenting you." ...and so on. This took an unexpected turn.
PS: I'll apologize in most confrontations as a way to de-escalate the situation.
I expected the whole comment thread to be like this.
I came here to say the same thing except that I have a pi locally and one at a relative's house. I back up to the local pi and a nightly cron starts rsync to pull my local copy.
I chose this so that i could control the rstnc start time, bandwidth and stop time but also so I could leave the remote network vanilla with no open ports, etc. With bandwidth limiting, it may take a few days to catch up from full backups, but a differential is same day.
Be sure to use a RO filesystem or overlay FS on the Pi card. I've had them go corrupt.
Sorry, I thought I'd bypass the web page and link directly to the video but something went wrong. I updated the link.
Here's an interesting discussion that underscores your point that the south won the civil war.
Edit: fixed link
Moving picture of the early morning sun affected by the smoke from the Canadian wildfires over a farm field. The levels have been edited slightly to match what my eyes saw.
The sun was an intense, piercing red and everything else had a smoky haze that was sharp on the nose, like deeply inhaled black pepper.
This is my first post to this forum.
I don't know why there's more down votes than up votes, but I found the article interesting, even if it was a little light and fluffy.
