I apparently missspoke. it was just a message and a call from a specific gov entity saying not to respond yet, until they can get more details. sounds like there is pushback but not quite canceled.

now its getting canceled.

edit. apparently its not canceled but some entitys within the gov are instructing their employees not to respond.

lots of federal workers don't work a normal schedule or get government email at home. they won't even know about this til its deadline is past. not that that's the only problem with this.

That was 2-300 years later

Worst museum in dc, but I haven’t tried the cafeteria. Sounds interesting.

The greatest question. There could be good answers. I don’t expect much.

I mean, theoretically the change would be that they would just grab people that were undocumented from the courthouse, right? It’s not like ice is full real government agency. It’s only been around for like 15 years

Thought this was obsolete as of like a year ago. Did they update it?

Yeah. Lemmy was ok for a few months after the api exodus but seems to have shrunk down to some really, um, I guess immature people? Maybe fringy angry self righteous people? I’ve been coming back less and less often and it seems to be getting worse, but there is the occasional gem and I’m never going back to the bad place.

Gantt in linux (sh.itjust.works)
 

i’m planning a road trip and wanted to plan it out using a Gantt chart. I searched the repositories and did not find anything. Does anyone have any recommendations? (I actually am fun at parties)

 

I'd like more instrumental music. those are my two favorites. who should I listen to it those are your favorites too?

 

Last night, I watched ‘The Conners’ (it's on after Jeopardy here, and it's not so bad now that Barr is gone), and I can't stop thinking about it. Hopefully, you saw it, too, but it was bothersome. It started with a 90+ YO woman getting her identity stolen. Fair enough. Then, the family thought that debit would be their issue and staged an “intervention.” This is where I think TV needs to be more educational and should have explained that no, they were not going to “be left with a mountain of debt.” Instead, they find out she wasn't being defrauded and had made the purchases herself. Here is where it jumped the shark. This gave them the idea, from experience with Rosanne's death, that credit card debt usually gets wiped when someone dies. They go on a fraudulent spending spree, and near the end of the episode, they find out the credit company will investigate the issue.

I guess my point for the conversation is that there are so many tucking crazy loopholes in this episode it was almost anti-educational and pushed an agenda with no reason. I understand a lot of scripted shows are like this, such as Law and Order (except the original, sort of), but this seemed over the top.
