Segregated facilities are already illegal, including language about them in contracts is redundant, because contracts which compel illegal behavior are unenforceable.

This is being coordinated and cheered on by users on enormous online platforms. If there was one or two fires in a single city or even state then I'd agree the FBI probably wouldn't even take a look.

However given the very public and national nature of these targeted events, they're going to have a plausible excuse to investigate this as domestic terrorism.

I'm not endorsing the FBI, or calling this terrorism, just stating how it's being handled by law enforcement.

That said, folks should know that even a small platform like Lemmy is crawling with glowies, be careful.

Tacos 3 ways: carne asada, pork al pastor, chorizo. Served on scratch corn tortillas with house fermented salsa.

it is the unluckiest day of the year

Today is the day that my local area shut down for COVID in 2020. I live near the ocean, the beach was closed, the golf courses were closed, the stores had cops out front stopping looting. It was wild.

Literally nothing. I probably drink too much.

I'm guessing that search would turn up results for any instance LW is federated with? If not that would be disappointing!

Great Bush recession

I've literally never heard it called that, is this a non-US term? I've heard "great financial crisis", "great recession", or "housing crash" before.

That's even more bizarre; how does one hide a gun in their shoe??

Ankle holster probably.

Also, almost no pistol designed in the last 60 years will discharge when simply dropped on the ground (Sig P320 may be the exception here). I'm pretty sure this guy shot himself, and blamed it on an AD. What a moron.

The third one is definitely rooted in coastal Southern California, but has tinges of other accents. As you pointed out, this accent could be from anywhere in the US as the sound has propogated via popular media.

As a native Los Angelino it sounds to me like a guy in Northern California or maybe PNW who spent a lot of time on the east coast.

It's different enough from the beachy LA or Orange County sound for me to pick out that there's some other influence there.

I'm following for responses here, great questions!

I don't know much about the security of running those services relative to each other, but I have some practical experience.

I ran sshd for decades, and pushed a local socks tunnel through it to emulate VPN. I initially chose this route because it worked on all desktop OS and Android without needing to figure out all of the client VPN software, and I already had SSH everywhere.

In the last couple of years Wireguard became natively available on my network equipment (UniFi Ubiquiti) so I moved all of my client devices over and closed down the external SSH port. I connect to it using IP, but use Syncthing to keep my host IP updated in case it changes, which has happened exactly once in the last 7 years (I used this mechanism when I was running ssh as well). I've been very happy.

Performance relative to socks over SSH is better. Client resource usage is lower (mainly looking at battery life), so much so that all my client devices (even mobile phones) run Wireguard always turned on. Fewer networks block Wireguard than SSH (I used to have to run ssh over DNS ports with other trickery to get around hotel and airplane wifi restrictions).

I now carry a small wifi router in my travel kit that bridges/clones connections to public wifi and runs Wireguard natively so every device I care about can just jump on that while I'm traveling. I only have to connect it to public wifi and no longer have to mess with the rest of my devices. I can even run Chromecast and stream media from my home while connected to a hotel TV. It's all very seamless.

Super Troopers and Beerfest. The Broken Lizard crew has great chemistry.

I just got back from a trip to Kauai where I was fortunate enough to play 3 rounds.

I stayed in Koloa, so I played Kiahuna for the first time since it was so close. At $135 it was a so-so value, but the PoP was great and the greens were wild.

I played Princeville Makai the next day, which I'd played once on a previous trip. It's the most expensive course of the three I played on this trip, and kind of tough to get to unless you're already in the Hanalei area. Even so, this is my favorite course on the island and I highly recommend it to everyone.

Poipu Bay was the last course I played on this trip, the 16th hole is pictured. You tee off on top of the bluff (look for the palm trees furthest away), and the hole is a LONG par 4 at >500 yards, but plays downwind so it's still reachable in two for reasonably long hitters. Driving it long and straight is imperative at this course, the wind plays a major factor.
