  • BI: AOC asked voters why they backed her candidacy and Trump's reelection. They said the economy and Gaza.

  • Just so everyone knows. Child poverty went down because Dems had enough power to expand the child tax credit as part of Bidens American rescue plan. The expanded credit then expired and Republicans have blocked passage of the renewed expansion. This is another thing where Republicans will do anything to harm Democrats including voting against extremely popular programs. I agree that it sucks the poverty went back up, but Dems reduced it and Republicans increased it.

  • Opinion | Voters punished Biden for problems he didn’t cause and effectively addressed

  • I can't find a solid confirmation but it looks like as part of the law killing the strike and enacting the recommendations of the emergency board, the attendance rules creating points was vacated without further agreements from the unions. So from what I can tell, your statement is incorrect. I looked up the emergency board's recommendations but I didn't do a deep dive into the law to confirm. Link to the recommendations below.

  • I agree with you for the most part. That being said I have tried to explain this point to multiple people and they don't care that the Biden admin got the rail workers what they asked for. They insist that stopping the strike means Biden was anti union full stop even after the IBEW put out releases thanking the Biden admin. they also said it was just propaganda. It's just as much about people not wanting to listen.

  • Best seat cushion for my mesh desk chair for working from home, for my poor bony butt bones, and my legs don't fall asleep?

    Jump

  • I tried the purple cushion and it wasn't worth it. But besides that I don't have a recommendation.

  • You can also find steelcase chairs on eBay for reasonable prices. They have all the adjustments and a wide variety of material options.

  • Breaking down the McMaster Carr website and the techniques they use to make it so dang fast.

  • I don't think you need to worry about sizes (or pitch) everything I have gotten from them has been correct but material and strength (temper) are definitely something to be wary of. So yea if you need ansi strength out of a bolt don't get it from Amazon, but if you are just using a 1/4"-20 to fasten something together you're probably fine.

  • Surprisingly enough, Amazon has a wide selection of bolts/hardware at good prices and reasonable delivery times 2-4 days normally.

    Hair care product

    Jump

  • You might look into the "curly girl" method, don't worry about the name it's just what it started out being called in the 80-90s. It helps people with any texture besides stick straight hair tame the friz. It's been pretty helpful for me to allow my actual curls out without being a puff ball. There's a community driven Google doc that has the concepts and best products. It wouldn't surprise me if you actually have all wavy hair, many people find that once they stop using products that weigh down hair, their hair texture increases.

  • Actual Budget is a fantastic FOSS budgeting tool that you can self-host

    Jump

  • Worked really well for me, just put in an API key to actual budget and it pulls all the info from simple fin. Only thing that doesn't pull for me it categories of the transactions so you have to manually set them up in actual but it does allow for rules.

  • Question about drive capacity for WD PR4100

    Jump
    1. Looks like that NAS was originally sold with up to 40tb capacity so it shouldn't have any issues with larger drives. Seems like the "my cloud os" is based on Linux so unless WD built in some weird limit, it should work with 20tb drives.
    2. I don't have an answer here, never had to rebuild an array. You might be able to use clonezilla which can do a block by block copy of disks and then expand the volume in the OS if it supports it. This is just conjecture, I've never done it with a raid array.

  • It's in perpetual beta and is free as long as you don't want to run multiple copies at a time. I had so many DVDs to rip I bought a license. It can also rip UHD Blu-rays if you have the correct drive. Not sure why it would say it's too old, are your date settings in windows correct? The forum is filled with people doing exactly what you describe and is a great resource. https://forum.makemkv.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=1&t=20579

  • MakeMKV is pretty much the standard for ripping Blu-rays. You can then use handbrake to reencode to something more efficient.

  • This is a crazy recommendation but I think Canada dry plain seltzer is basically as good as topo Chico. I got some at a gas station the other day cause I was dying of thirst and it was as good as topo Chico my wife thought so too.
