Chief Pantysniffer Ted Cruz is monitoring the submissions personally. He’s on call 24/7, especially in the wee hours of the night when his wife and kids are asleep and he needs to drive out to some truck stop and investigate baddie behavior himself.

What Schedule III Doesn't Do:

  • It doesn't legalize cannabis federally

  • It doesn't allow you to legally possess or consume cannabis under federal law

  • It doesn't stop federal law enforcement from prosecuting you

  • It doesn't resolve banking issues for most cannabis businesses

  • It doesn't expunge the records of the millions arrested for cannabis offenses

  • It doesn't allow interstate commerce

  • It doesn't remove cannabis from the Controlled Substances Act

What Schedule III Does Do:

  • Removes IRS Code 280E, giving massive tax breaks to large cannabis corporations

  • Requires FDA approval for cannabis products (hello, Big Pharma!)

  • Subjects dispensaries and growers to the Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act

  • Creates new federal crimes including selling prescription drugs without a license, misbranding, and illegal distribution

  • Effectively hands the cannabis market to pharmaceutical companies while crushing small operators

That’s pretty fucked up.

Voyager does have a face-id-to-unlock feature that enable. But yeah, a facade icon/name would be awesome as well

Same, but if they’re trained to look for the Voyager icon I could be in “trouble”

But for now, this is the last place I can say it:

I hope Trump is hanged for treason and violently shits himself to death out of fear and panic in the seconds before the noose snaps. And then a buncha hand-scrawled notes confessing his pedophelia, sexual assaults, rapes, and love for AOC’s feet fall from his pockets

Dammit, I held a bunch of these for years hoping for a rebound and just sold them at a loss a few days ago. Stupid Trump.

Hell yeah and I’ll play it

One thing people foolishly ignore in the whole “cloned meat” debate is how easy and ethical it’d be to eat whatever the heck you wanted. Elephant soup? Bald eagle kebab? Mmm fried camel nuggets..

Someone in here recommended the Red Rising series and I’ve been enjoying it thoroughly. I’m on the third one now. The reader for the audiobooks is Tim Reynolds and he does a great job. Thanks for the recommendation, whoever you are!

Also physically reading Martyr! by Kaveh Akbar, but it’s too soon to comment on.

I’ve read elsewhere that charging it while enclosed could be bad for it because of high temps, and it has been speculated that its orientation in the default case is such to prevent zipping up to each side of the charging cable.

 

Hello, and thank you in advance.

I'm making a privacy friendly "ring" cam/doorbell following this guide: https://tristam.ie/2023/758/ which has been great, but requires running a micro-usb cable down to the doorbell for power. I'm hoping to improve on this by using the existing doorbell power instead.

The problem is that I'm a DIY electronics noob and I can't create a mental model for how it should all work. The picture I attached is my existing doorbell wiring scheme, which is as simple as it comes. I totally get how this works. Pressing the doorbell completes the circuit and makes the bingbongs. But this will have to change so the new door cam gets power full time. Ideally without the chime bingbonging full time.

In addition to the ESP-32CAM, button, ring lights, etc., I also bought these: https://www.amazon.com/dp/B079FJSYGY which I thought might be needed to complete the circuit?

I measured the voltage after the transformer and it was around 18 volts, but maybe this is AC and I want DC?

Generally I don't know where in "the loop" to put things. Also, all the existing components are very far apart from each other, so I would love a solution that doesn't involve running any new wires through the walls.

Any help is appreciated. Thank you!!
