Interesting. Perhaps because it's British, I couldn't tell it was biased. They definitely are not Putin fans, but that seems universal right now. I'm checking out your alternative recommendations now, thanks!

For the Ukraine war: also do not trust any information sources. Even the good guys are lying. I've been watching foreign news (Sky News, while I'm American), to avoid both our own biases, and the inevitable chatter about American

I think there's a solid chance that they can twist it in a way that bolsters support for Putin. He's long said something like "when the West hates me, that's when I'm on the right path." (My paraphrase from mem

I think it's because it is off topic, and also HN generally does not like humor, unless it's particularly clever.

Best ribeye in my region is pretty unanimously thought to be found at the back of a gas station. An older man has been grilling Ribeyes out the back door for like sixty years or something, I think only two days per week. It comes on a styro

I posted it in this thread (I'm GP). I admit, I think my source was probably HN comments. I tend to trust them more than they deserve. I did a Google, and it seems a very sketchy claim.

Just a thought: maybe Netscape, or some of the other software on your disks can open the files. Import to PowerPoint or something.

I had a response to a comment of mine here on HN recently that effectively made this same argument-- that letting corporations influence our behavior is being slept on as one of the great problems in our society. After thinking it through,

I can't solve your mystery, but your PC didn't get a slack notification while you hadn't yet booted the OS. It's something else. That's too big of a conspiracy to be the answer.

Have you checked out anything like gopher or the competing modern protocols (whose names escape me)? They might serve you well if you find some sites that interest you.

In case anyone else thinks that's crazy, I bought 40 acres in the Ozarks with a (manufactured) home, a shop, a 52x14 storage building, and a few other outbuildings. The land was mostly wooded, with a few acres in use for a garden. $60,

Do you really think it should be illegal? Or do you just think that making it illegal would probably show some benefit to the average person's health?

Okay, but presumably they used the same metric for all the countries, yeah? Our giant American malls have a ton of roads, sidewalks, parking and enclosed interior space (which is still not within a shop)

The river area in Branson, MO is similar. 5 or 6 stories of condos above an outdoor mall with lots of stores and restaurants. It seems pretty cool, although many condos are quite far from parking.

Seconding wordpress. If you have any need to move off of it, you'll know. Seems unlikely for a personal blog.

I also have military planes flying over frequently. I live in the Ozarks, and they seem to enjoy flying quite low through the valleys. I'm sure some people don't like the noise, but I love seeing the planes so close.

Figuring out how much is "enough" has been incredibly valuable to me. It turns out I'm already quite wealthy in the categories that are important to me. I, too, am trying to get rid of a lot of things. Not to be a minimalist

And a fourth cost for many items: time to clean and maintain them. A lot of my hobbies require time devoted to maintenance. Woodworking, for instance. Lots of tools to keep sharp.
