Has anyone tried this yet? I'm tempted to convert my physical card over but I'm worried about my phone dying, etc.

Update: I bought an additional card (Wallet only) and it's working well so far for the light rail. I also added in a multi ride ferry pass and it correctly** handled that as well. Pretty happy about this so far, aside from being so very late.

** The screen on the turnstile says there's an error, but it correctly deducts from the pass and lets me through. The wallet app doesn't actually list pass uses remaining but myorca does.

What are you talking about? I've witnessed it several times now at work, especially regarding programming or EE. Have you not yet suffered through a programmer condescendingly explain trivial matters to others, especially to women?

The post is obviously a hyperbole but it's not too far off from reality.

I don't think anybody is obsessed with it. It's a problematic behavior in many men, enough so that it's become a meme, particularly in the US.

I've tried this. It's drinkable but not very enjoyable. 5/10

I'd argue it depends on who is serving it and what their intentions are. I don't think it's necessarily bad. I went to a local Juneteenth celebration and the food stands were serving some fried chicken, collard greens, jollof rice, etc.

Nothing particularly, but it would let LW and other instances distance themselves from the lemmy.ml admins.

Tbh this is one of the reasons why I'm looking forward toward Sublinks

Maybe Thriftbooks? They do offer shipping to Canada but it's not always cheap.

I can't change the thickness. I might try cross hatching the ground plane (suggested in the SE) and seeing how that affects the impedance as well.

Even before the rebuild, I recall it being terrible. It's some of the worst water in the entire city.

When I came into my office this morning, I found that my boss moved his resin printer into my office and the setup reeks of solvent (it smells like a hundred uncapped expos). Are these fumes fine? Or am I gonna end up with half a melted brain by the end of the week?

Over the objection of three conservatives, the court left in place a state law that bars therapists from counseling minors to change sexual orientation or gender identity, a practice favored by some conservatives.

GOLD BAR, Wash. — In Snohomish County, some residents told KIRO 7 they feel unsafe going to their local grocery store. Over the weekend, controversial photos of a cashier at Gold Bar Family Grocer appeared on social media. The photos show a man with a KKK shirt and a loaded holster checking out customers.

The shirt bears the words “I’m dreaming of a white Christmas. Knights of the Ku Klux Klan.”

“The world’s a scary place right now. And Gold Bar should be a safe haven for those of us who live here,” said Gold Bar resident Lynne Kelly. “That’s crossing a line. That’s not okay.”

She believes the grocery store needs to take action. Meanwhile, fellow resident Jessica believes the man should be allowed to wear what he wants.

“Freedom of speech,” said Jessica. “Didn’t everyone fight for our freedoms for free speech so we could do what we want here? If the company’s not against it, the company’s not against it.”

We spoke with an expert on hate speech. Caitlin Carlson is a professor of communications at Seattle University and has published a book called ‘Hate Speech’.

“The KKK is a hate group,” said Carlson. “And so this messaging is very much hate speech, but it is allowed under the First Amendment.” But she adds that employers do have a right to intervene.

“If the employer wanted to tell the employee not to wear that, again, to wear a particular uniform, not to engage in potentially open carry, right, they would they would be well within their rights to do that,” said Carlson. “I would definitely be asking the employer, why it is there allowing this person to come to work and potentially offend or upset customers with this this attire?”

We spoke with the manager at Family Grocer who told us repeatedly “no comment.” They did add that they do not condone their employee’s actions.
