So, giving you what I called the choice dialog. That makes sense. Intent intercept wouldn't help then, it would just give you one more basically irrelevant choice to do all the things (although it's useful for developers).

Is it actually opening up the Sprinkler app for all those other purposes, or giving you a choice dialog? If it's actually opening up the app, maybe installing Intent Intercept would at least make it a choice dialog, as it also tries to open everything (just to show information about the request; it's a dev tool).

For me, Salvador Dali's work transformed from fascinating into kitsch when I learned he was a fascist.

No, Aileen Cannon is presiding over the case about retaining secret documents in Florida (and IIRC, she's already dismissed it and that decision is being appealed). This "conspired to overthrow the government" case is in Washington DC and is presided over by U.S. District Judge Tanya Chutkan, who is treating it seriously.

I have a panini press that can be propped open, and it's the best thing for reheating a slice of pizza. I usually microwave it a bit first just to heat it thru, but sticking on the panini press makes the crust, ah, crusty again.

Exactly. Because it's not any better ("plenty horrible as it stands" as I put it in my original comment), the deceptive headline is not only unnecessary, but also taints the entire story with falsehood when it should not be so degraded.

Ok, fine, if no one else will do it, here's the list:
- Haitian immigrants eating cats and dogs
- Harris wants to bring back the military draft
- Harris had notes during her CNN interview
- schools are sending children for gender-affirming surgeries without their parents’ knowledge
- Harris was sent to negotiate with Putin about Ukraine; her failure started the war
- Harris decided to identify as Black only a few years ago
- Harris was the first candidate to quit the Democratic primary of 2020
- “Every Democrat, every Republican, everybody wanted Roe v. Wade terminated and brought back to the states”
- “if I ran with an honest vote counter in California I would win California, but the votes are not counted honestly.”
- that he was named “Man of the Year” in Michigan before he entered politics.
- “the Congo” has deliberately emptied prisons to somehow get its criminals to come to the United States as migrants.
- The government had been planning to release the report that employment grew less than previously expected after election day, but “a patriot leaker” forced them to release it early

Ok, the title comes from the linked article, but they aren't banned from "mentioning anatomy". They are banned from showing pictures of reproductive organs.
I don't know why some people seem compelled to take a story that's plenty horrible as it stands and give it a deceptive headline... seems like I'm seeing more of that recently. Are we really in a post-truth era?

Interestingly, the researchers noted that the brain regions identified in this study are part of a broader network connected to cognitive functions like reasoning, belief formation, and moral decision-making. These areas are also associated with conditions like pathological confabulation—a disorder where individuals create false memories or beliefs without the intent to deceive. Confabulation is often linked to cognitive rigidity and difficulty in revising beliefs, characteristics that are also found in individuals with high levels of religious fundamentalism.
The researchers also found a spatial overlap between brain lesions associated with criminal behavior and this fundamentalism network, which aligns with previous research suggesting that extreme religious beliefs may be linked to hostility and aggression toward outgroups.
Is that Republicanism in a nutshell, or what?

This is the obvious response to the terrorism-inducing Republican meme. A recipe with a mount-watering picture in response to every regurgitation of that reprehensible lie would have been awesome. A bit late for that now, I think it's dying down ...

I really liked my Keebio FoldKB, which I wrote about here, although for me the main attraction was its similarity to a standard keyboard, which sounds like it isn't a consideration for you. I currently have a Moonlander, and the last time I was going on a trip, I packed it up but said "f*ck it" because it was just too cumbersome, and just relied on my laptop's keyboard. I've taken my FoldKB on trips before, though, and it was much easier to take along. I think I will continue to use it on trips.

I haven't checked the veracity of reports like this, but I've heard this and it makes me think her vagueness has got to do with $$$, not votes.

It's a parabola or hyperbola. Of course, it's not technically an "orbit" since it isn't closed; the Wikipedia pages are called Parabolic trajectory and Hyperbolic trajectory.

The only assumption he's making is that, if you refer to yourself as "pro-life", you mean what everyone else in America who calls themselves "pro-life" means. It's a reasonable assumption, I mean, that's the way words work.
I want to build a linux PC for digial audio and home network storage. I plan to use a microphone to record acoustic instruments, so being quiet is a priority. Also, my usb audio interface and usb MIDI devices should be plugged in directly, no using a hub, so a lot of usb ports is another requirement. I'm not clear on whether my devices take advantage of usb3 speeds, but I think I'd better make sure I have more usb3 ports to use that speed if it's available. Besides that I'd like to run a storage server for my home network. I'm not sure if this is a good idea on the same box I want to record on, but usage should be pretty light and I don't want to build a whole other device for this. I have an older graphics card already, so I don't need that. I'd like to have a slot available in case I decide to get into experimenting with AI, but that's not in my budget for now. I'd like to keep this under $1K. What parts should I get? It'd be extra helpful to put together a list in [Micro Center's PC builder](https://www.microcenter.com/site/content/custom-pc-builder.aspx), since that's where I'm tentatively planning to pick up all my parts.
Way back in August, I published [part 1](https://forrcaho.github.io/blog/2023/08/27/my-ergo-mech-adventure-part-1.html) of my adventures with ergo mech keyboards, about my Keebio FoldKB. Now I've finally got [part 2](https://forrcaho.github.io/blog/2023/12/16/my-ergo-mech-adventure-part-2.html) done. As of now, I have two more split ergo keyboards to write about, but I don't know if I'll ever actually catch up ...
This is the story of my involvement with ergo-mech keyboards, describing how I set up my first split ergo, the Keebio FoldKB. Hopefully this will be the first of a series.
