If you’re curious about the history, public school lunches were federally funded and made free under FDR during WWII to combat malnourishment, especially for high schoolers who were getting drafted after turning 18.

It was so successful that the US continued the policy even after the war ended, and hence cafeterias became the default since they include a large kitchen that’s capable of producing high quality food at large quantities.

That is until Reagen, among a crap ton of other things, nuked lots of the socialist policies which included free school lunches.

Schools continued to produce lunch, but you had to pay.

40+ years of insane decline later, and public schools are so under funded that they can’t even afford to produce lunch in their cafeterias anymore. American consumerism shoved its way in, so now everything is prepackaged garbage made as cheaply as possible from the same conglomerates that make unhealthy trash that’s often banned by other countries due to health risks.

The final killing blow was when Michelle Obama failed to tackle this core issue in her student health campaign, and they forced public schools to ban essentially flavor as a concept (anything “high” in salt, spice, oil/fats, calories, etc).

Everything was switched over to “healthy” options which literally just meant low fat/zero calorie slop or sugar slop.

If you want a real kicker, the chocolate milk they served at my HS had 28g of sugar per serving lol. But don’t worry because the vending machines now only have baked potato chips and diet soda.

Charter and private schools aren’t really affected by this since they have alternative funding sources.

His announcement reminds me of the fake Hitler broadcast on Hogan’s Heroes where they proclaim Germany is winning rhe war but negotiations are happening lol.

If you mean inevitable due to lack of global action, then yeah because that’s how most models present eventual societal collapse.

If you mean because its too far gone, that’s not true. There’s still time to mitigate the issues we’ve created, but the effort required increases every year, and there’s not enough being done about it.

I read the title in the same voice as youtube’s “That’s how the law works.”

Why am I like this?

Procrastination

And how can I make it stop?

Any well known method that you can probably find on youtube, but the general idea is that you need to overcome the psychological barrier of just starting the task. How you do that is up to you.

Once you start, then you will naturally continue. And once you get in the habit of not dismissing tasks, then you will find it easier to do them from the beginning.

If it makes you feel better, Pakistan’s insanely corrupt utility companies run a scam tax for every kw you provide to the grid, so you only earn like 15% of the actual power’s worth, and only after you pay an exorbitant fee to install a reversible meter.

So now everyone skips the meter and has started installing tons of batteries to completely bypass the grid lol. Like every house and even villages are wired for solar, but the crappy utility companies still do rolling blackouts to pretend there’s a shortage of supply.

Even funnier, the batteries reach ROI in only 3 years, and they still fetch good money when you go to recycle them due to the precious metal value.

I think it was ~3k last time I checked on AP which listed it from several Iranian health orgs reporting both deaths and injuries.

The 30k that CBS pulled out of its ass was definitely fake though.

I have spent a great deal of time analyzing your feedback

Remember when a couple of critical CVEs went unnoticed and unpatched after disclosure because no one from Microsoft actually reads the insider hub lol.

There’s defnitley some irony in NYT giving credibility feedback for another outlet haha

It was the only one that survived along with lmao

RIP roflcopter

BRICS replacing USD is like how we declare every year the year of the linux desktop lol.

When USD goes down, its gonna bring down the world with it lol.

I used to rule the world [Unregistered HyperCam 2]

Still a better experience than reddit lol

Buddy chill its not that deep. He flew too low and in the range of an IR missile battery that they failed to spot as part of their SIGINT. That’s why they have video, he was so close that radar stealth literally would not matter. It even explains the small missile warhead size.

And DAS missile detectors have been pretty awful at being able to detect missiles due to their tiny package size. There’s no gg ez RWR for passive tracking missiles.

They’re flying sorties more brashly because they thought AA was taken care of, which is how this ambush succeeded.

Yes it’s defnitley a first for successfully hitting the F-35, but this isn’t some groundbreaking concept. It would have been huge news if they targeted the F-35 at a BVR range with active tracking like with a radar or data link solution.

Like I said, I’m sure the soldiers were super excited that they got a hit, but they would defnitley have preferred to have scored a full kill with a pilot ejection and subsequent capture.

I would be so incredibly mad as the AA battery cmdr if I witnessed a direct hit and the jet just continued to fly lol.

I can literally see the War Thunder “hit” message

I know there was a lot of AI slop memes about Netanyahu being dead but I think Iran successfully killed one of their leaders or at the very least injured someone important which is why he went into hiding for a week.

Israel has been underplaying the damage from Iranian missiles, and now that their air defense is degraded, Iran can carry out strikes with much less ammo.

The fact that CachyOS more or less successfully replaced Manjaro’s purpose I guess is evidence of Manjaro’s issues.

I forgot but I think Bazzite had similar complaints (due to its use of silverblue) in which case it was just more straightforward to use Fedora or OpenSUSE if you don’t want to work with the read only root system.

Downstream distros need to bring additional value to the table to be worth using, otherwise there’s really no need if you can make a package group that accomplishes the same thing in one go.

(I don’t need strong censorship resistance; it just has to work in offices and hotel WiFis.

Wireguard on 443 or OpenVPN + Stunnel on 443

Wireguard is easier to setup because there’s no OpenVPN app that packages stunnel (afaik), so you have to run 2 apps on your phone to make it work.

A server like caddy can also accept HTTPS traffic for some regular websites next to the VPN server.

Wireguard uses UDP, so just run whatever you want on 443 TCP with caddy (unless you want QUIC for some reason?)

Anything beyond that and you’d be looking at using a proper obfuscation solution like Shadowsocks or obfs4, in which case you should look into Amnezia or Tor bridges.

He’d do it if he wants to restart the draft for troops on the ground.

That being said, I don’t think it would acrually work that well and could easily backfire within the US. At the very least he would need heavy congressional support.
