It’s federally legal, but far as I can tell, some states don’t recognize those marriages, and others outright prohibit them, although it’s not enforceable. Still fucked up, IMO.
So, in many states....
- Can't be homeless.
- Can't be dead on purpose (suicide's illegal).
- Can't have an abortion.
- Can't marry a same-sex spouse.
- Can't get healthcare if you don't have a job, and even if you can, it's super expensive and not likely to cover everything.
So I guess, just make sure that you're born well-to-do, never make any mistakes, and are a straight, cis-gender man. Really narrows things down and puts life into clear perspective.
Hi honey, here’s Despacito…
I would drop insta in a heartbeat and switch to literally anything else, but unfortunately no one putting up pictures or video of my hobbies (the only thing I use insta for) uses anything else. Frustrating, but at the moment, my only option is to just quit insta and not switch to anything new since there's no content out there. Still considering going that route though, since insta has become super annoying to use.
Almost as bad as Rob Schneider:
Wonder if towing PG with that is possible? Dont know what the avg airspeed is for it, but I know there’s been a lot of chatter lately about its popularity and impact on hang gliding.
Been enjoying these hike and fly videos in the UK by one of the FlyBubble gang. He’s done Scottish highlands and North Wales - very chill and well produced and good mix of hiking, nature, light alpinism, and PG with light gear.
Man - that comma in the second sentence murdered my brain. Excellent synopsis though.
Officers eat Troi cake and Sigmund Freud tells Data to kill everyone.
Well the wing’s not supposed to fall off. Maybe it was flying outside the environment?
We have a new manager and she is forcing us to use the calendar and planner in Teams and my productivity has plummeted because of it.

You’ll rue the day you crossed me, Trebek.
That would mean you would be indefinitely supporting and sending traffic to X. Why not tell your million followers "I will only be posting on Bluesky now - please check out my profile there [link]" and dump X? If you're worried about your numbers dropping moving to the other platform, then your "followers" probably don't mean much or weren't that interested in what you have to say anyway (so what's the point other than a score)? Maybe I'm just doing the old man shaking his fist at the sky routine.
Is “maintaining the integrity of the presidential election” even fall under the responsibilities of POTUS? Wouldn’t that be more of the judicial’s or legislative’s wheelhouse? If it’s not, doesn’t that completely invalidate Trump’s argument that he was acting under his presidential duties?
Great video on how to fix a bunch of zipper issues. Handy to have on hand for harness, rucksack, and concertina bag zipper problems. Implemented one of the fixes in the video (took less than a minute) and that fix is still going strong after a year.
For personal projects, I've favored gandi.net for many years, but I'm trying to get a few candidates together for the organization I work for. Not a fan of GoDaddy, NetworkSolutions, or many of the all-in-one web host / registrar / app hosting / whateverelse sites.
Hoping there are a few modern alternatives out there that I haven't seen yet. We had all of our domains on Google Domains, but since they got bought by Squarespace, I'm surveying our options.
Looks like super lightweight, loads of pockets, and 70L total storage volume. Might be a good rival to the BV1.
Not a sailplane pilot, but thought this was pretty neat. Uses the airflow to push the wiper out to the end of the wing and then either a simple electric motor or a hand crank to bring it back towards the fuselage.
Have been fiddling with removing the brummels from my speed system and wanted a nice stopper knot for the larkshead to grab onto. Hope this benefits someone else.
Looks like none of the consumer-grade security cameras (Nest, Arvo, Ring, etc) support being able to embed the feed on a web page anymore. I think many of them never supported it, but looks like since Google bought Nest, they are slowly stripping features out of that one.
I'm looking to set up a security camera or two in a park-like area (it's a parking lot and landing area for a freeflight club), and am looking for something that checks the following boxes:
- Ideally, a solution that doesn't need an external computer (a full blown machine that's running software that might have to be restarted by a human on-site; a self-contained hardware device or rack mounted solution that would start all necessary services up after a power outage or other failure would be fine).
- Video would be ideal, but if there's something that would take snapshots every few seconds, that's acceptable.
- Stream (or photos) would need to be publicly-accessible. A webpage embed would be ideal, but not something where a whole bunch of people have to use a dedicated mobile app to access it.
I looked at some of Unifi's product offerings, but hard to tell if some combination of their cameras and routers would accomplish that. Anyone put something like this together recently and can recommend anything?
Product page is up for the new Scala 2 (looks like a high-C wing).
