Which is exactly why federal funds are necessary for it rather than local. The places that need this most tend to be those with the least money for local infrastructure, but if the money doesn’t have to come from the cash-strapped local budget, that’s not an issue.

Projects are already underway and have replaced our two lagest lead service lines in the medium-small Illinois city where I live via federal funding over the last year. City literally just applied for the funds from this same program and hired private contractors once the funds were approved. About 3 months of construction on each of the 2 roads under which our main service lines run, and now lead has been fully removed from 60% of residents water supply, with the last 40% to occur over the next 18 months.

It’s been pretty simple.

Oh awesome, thank you enormously for all your work!

Are you on Android? I am not seeing a 1.0.153 update available, still on 152.

What is a single thing about Twitter that has gotten better? Selling my Tesla for an electric Mustang was the best choice I’ve made in a while.

I don’t give really a shit about him, but from the dropoff in Twitter’s usage and value to production and publicity issues at Tesla and cutting off the Ukraine army’s access to Starlink, it seems there’s, well, a lot to hate about him. And like he might not be that good at his job.

At the scale of war, something purpose-built like this is helpful because it’s customized and standardized for exactly what they want it to do. But if it would really be that helpful for individual acts of terror, I think we’d have seen rudimentary versions by now. If terrorists haven’t been using RC cars or rovers already, I don’t think this is enough of a jump in tech to make them start.

Haha she and Moshe are too good

Just get a pin you can wear that says “I’m crazy.” It will be much easier.

They went on a trip, and now they return to monke

That’s Marvel’s Simu Liu to you

In comic, dystopian reality, selling drugs (really just weed) was how I graduated college debt-free, and graduating without debt was the only way I could take out/afford a loan for a house.

So apparently, it’s true what they say, whether planting or selling trees, the best time to do it was 10 years ago. The second best time is now! (Except don’t)

In New York City? Only 100 years or so…

In Chicago, 3D printed guns are starting to be an issue. It’s not crazy to see that and make the jump to regulations.

Pixelated photos of Joe Rogan, wigs photoshopped onto Putin to make him look like a woman, and a claim that he is a nondescript bearded man who, in carrying out a clandestine operation, stood next to Osama in a published video? This is the stuff of crackpot dreams, like the video that went viral a decade ago claiming Osama and Obama were the same person.

Make a big batch of pour over and just freeze the extra in an ice tray. Use that to ice hot coffee and you don’t have to change your recipe at all (though you can still use a slightly tighter ratio since cold things taste less, which is why I’ve cream needs such saturated flavoring and so much sugar).

Who? More?

Two spirit and furry feel different from the rest tbh. I think they open queerness back up to views that it’s a choice or a learned behavior and not naturally human.

It’s a kibbutz. The school, the temple, the homes, everything is on the same compound.

The only things taken from these documents are the plan to take hostages and kill civilians in a school and kibbutz compound, with the awareness that many of those civilians would be children. There’s no extrapolation there and that exact thing happened.
