I was talking with a colleague about this. They’ve had a lot of “gang culture” exposure.

Their opinion was it wasn’t a MS13 tattoo.

They said MS13 tattoos were notorious for being massive and blatant, not secretive and subtle.

They elaborated that gang tattoos are used for “repping” and need to be immediately clear who you’re repping for, otherwise it defeats the purpose of showing reputation and providing protection.

Just my $0.02

I think this is a good idea. Especially the part that allows those who can demonstrate a higher level of responsibility, complete additional safety courses and background checks, to own these banned firearms.

Bans are generally just bans for people who follow the law. So I like these exceptions for those who are willing to “extra follow the law.”

Obviously this assumes that the exceptions will actually be given, since it’s up to your local sheriffs discretion. Could be abused.

With you on that. This is a bit of a “bad example.”

And someone looking in from the outside could totally make the conclusion that “they (lemmy) are totally taking this out of context! They’re a felon!”

Like you say, there’s a menagerie of actions done by this administration that are dangerous and telling of their goals.

I agree with your sentiment.

The cartoon is clearly in extremely bad taste and dehumanizing.

However, the context that she had been previously convicted for fentanyl trafficking is important.

It’s tough though, because if we put the cartoon aside, this is technically what they should be doing. I don’t disagree with deporting felon immigrants.

But then you consider all the history of this administration that got us here… it’s really hard to agree with them.

Yea I think within the last year or so the fee was removed.

Here’s a great site to do exactly this!

Great idea! Just posted!

 

Lots of fascinating reads.

I had no idea about the Network State. Which, to me, is bananas-crazy. Felt like a conspiracy theorist just reading about it… but it’s all cited, it’s a very real ideology that a lot of people that are now in power subscribe to.

Also interesting was the implications for the Trump presidency (post appears to be written before the election).

Here’s a not-so-fun read tangential to this guy.

Nice Chat-GPT you got there

Been curious about deploying HA with docker. As I understand the only limitation is you can’t use add-ons?

I watched the same video!

I was right about to disagree and type “wait this only applies to light” but then I remembered: radio is light.

Crazy to think about that!

Similar, but I believe the strength addition is also because it changes the directions of the Z-axis layers.

Most filament is rather strong in tension. If you imagine printing a regular cube, without rotation, it’s going to be strongest stretching or compressing the sides of the cube.

But if you pulled the cube apart from its top and bottom, the only adhesive strength is the fused connection between layer heights. Which is super weak.

By printing at an angle, the layer heights may be in a direction that doesn’t receive tensile load, making it functionally stronger.

 

My Adansonii bush. Not sure where to go from here. I keep chopping the head off, and it keeps sprouting more nodes, making it look a little unbalanced.

Ideally I’d replant the mature tops into the soil on the bottom, for a bushier plant. But it’s already extremely bushy, running out of room down there.

Open to any ideas on how to manage it. I’m already giving away/propagating my top-chops, so I guess that’s the long term plan?
