Even a kitler supports trans rights.

As I understand it, Texas republicans pushed to privatize the state's electrical grid, and allow "provider choice" in way that has led to extreme profit-taking by private entities and reduced any investment in infrastructure. This contributed to the extremely high prices that some Texans have been paying in the winter, as well as more frequent and sever outages.

We could consider this a bailout because private entities sucked all the money out of the system, and now the federal government is investing to try and get it into a working state again.

Why do they have to be this way? What happened to these Republicans? Are they genuinely held beliefs or is it all just opportunism?

ETA: does it matter? 🙁

The Spirit and The Mouse is free on Epic Games right now. I've been enjoying it - gentle, cute game where you play as a little electric mouse in a french village trying to help it's citizens. Rough around the edges with a lot of heart.

Max is notoriously capricious. If I remember correctly, they have a terrible reputation with animation on their platform.

In a sense I'm surprised these cartoons remained on there as long as they did.

She's a great communicator and seems to be genuine in trying to help Americans.

To be pedantic, as Chair of the FTC, Ms. Khan isn't a cabinet member. The FTC is an independent agency, which exists outside of the executive branch's departments. The heads of the departments are cabinet members. Think: DOJ, DOD, State, Agriculture, Interior, Education, Energy, Treasury, etc.

Mist Continent to Outer Continent for part one. They'll beef up the escape sequence in Fossil Roo as the end of the first game.

They'll add a bunch of filler and make Terra its own game.

Part three will be the endgame + the optional open world stuff before the endgame.

They'll fit a part four by carving something else up too.

It'll be a shame, too, since FF9 has a fun story and characters.

Is there a better way to share a toot from Mastodon?

 

Let me know if this gets annoying. He's probably going to live in here for the time being. Hopefully not causing too much mischief. A little is ok.

 
 

I picked up a couple of these fans for my home, and after some initial setup quirks, they're working reliably with Matter and HomeKit. HomeKit lets you adjust fan speed and oscillation; you cannot adjust the oscillation angles. These fans can push a lot of air if you want, and on lower settings they're totally silent while still providing a pleasant breeze.

Folks are discussing it on that other site, but since I don't use it, I wanted to post some things here. Hopefully so DDG/Google/Bing can still find useful results. Someone can link Redditors to here if they want:

  • Pairing and control (when not responsive): Any HomeKit pairing and control issues could be because the Govee app cannot be open or running at the same time. I have to force quit the Govee app on my phone in order to get it to relinquish control to HomeKit. I hope Govee figures out how to remove this limitation, but I don't use their app so I don't care too much.
  • Hard reset instructions: The Reddit thread (and Govee website!) have it wrong. To reset the device, you have to hold the Mode and Timer buttons for 5 seconds. This is mentioned on a little paper insert they included with the fan.

ETA: if folks can't tell, this is an EXO-6 figurine I own. I welcome other ideas for funny pictures to take with him.

I'll add my own opinion as a comment, too.
