Don’t pass funding bills, up to and including a government shutdown, to halt the war financially.
People are calling them chicken already, buy few seem to recall the last shutdown - longest ever - didn’t materially stop anything, either, as everything else is deprived of money to the priority of defense.
Yet another mastabatory dogpile on dems. Not that it’s undeserved, but I fail to understand what this achieves other than perpetuating animosity.
Citric acid is better than vinegar in this application. Chemically it’s 3 times more powerful. A couple cups of crystals in an empty cleaning cycle is better than filling the while machine with undiluted vinegar.
Step one: clean the machine. Just like you wouldn’t expect to be clean using a dirty bath or dishes in a dirty sink you won’t get clean clothes in a filthy washer. Options are 2+ cups citric acid crystals or a commercial product based on oxy (sodium percarbonate) run using a self-cleaning mode or full wash at max temperate for max duration. It may take several cycles depending how bad it is. Note: citric acid does not create suds. If you get a lot of suds in an otherwise empty load then that’s the citric acid removing residual detergent. Repeat till you don’t get suds.
Step two: clean your clothes. If they smell musty straight out of the wash then they’re not getting cleaned in the wash. Use the hottest setting the clothing care tag allows, wash for the longest time the machine is capable of, and add extra rinses. For chemistry, use high quality detergents (Tide, Persil, others depending where you live), add a booster product with enzymes (varies on country: Biz if US, Resolve Gold if Canada, Vanish down under), and add a tbsp of citric acid in the final rinse (not in the wash!) Avoid fabric softeners as the can contribute to the stinky buildup in the textiles you’re trying to remove.
But it’s a charade when the 1% are getting massive tax cuts at the same time. Still a net loss to the 99% getting checks, but WEEE $5000! 🙄
This is from 2010. Here’s a 2026 article. Spolier: we still don’t know what exactly these are. Space. 🤯

There is a convoluted non-extension method.
Registry change. See here: https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/DeployEdge/microsoft-edge-policies/newtabpagelocation
That will be all you need if you’re enrolled in a domain or mobile device management. If you’re not you can fake being in a MDM environment via another registry change. See here for that: https://hitco.at/blog/apply-edge-policies-for-non-domain-joined-devices/
Honestly user hostile behavior by MS here, but as with most things can be defeated one way or another if you’re able to waste time on it.
This is incorrect. One guy raised an objection, which the state department can and probably will ignore.

The vote the two Democrats defected on is known as a rule vote. Typically, members of the minority party stick together to oppose these kind of procedural votes, which the majority party needs to bring bills to the floor.
Democrats are particularly irate given that one of the bills that can now be brought to the floor is a Russian sanctions bill that President Donald Trump himself has championed.
While some Democrats support the Russia sanctions bill, they said they were not willing to back a GOP rule — and cross party leadership — to get that result.
“I’m proud to represent one of the largest Ukrainian communities in America — people who have lost fathers, mothers, sons and daughters in the fight to defeat fascism,” Gluesenkamp Perez said on X, adding, “My vote today gets us one step closer to enacting these sanctions into law and I look forward to voting tomorrow to cut off the flow of Russian oil money fueling this war.”
Unless fatally flawed – highly likely for anything Trump supports – then don’t we want sanctions here? I get wanting to deny a W for the opposition, but having one or two be the bad guy so everyone else can look unified while plenty probably support the thing sounds like politics. Stupid politics, but this is the age in which we live.
Does this mean non-payers have to wait longer? Someone gets bumped when another person pays to cut in line.
And what if everyone pays? The amounts described are small, but is it scales like they say what’s there to control how high it goes?
To be clear, it’s not done yet. The past tense in the post title is misleading.
There should be a word.
My father-in-law was not feeling well recently so we took him to the doctor. He presented with very high blood pressure and we were all asking him what happened to the blood pressure medicine he was taking for a decade. He replied, “I stopped taking it because last time they checked my blood pressure it was fine.”
This absolutely needs a word.
A programmable PD barrel adapter isn’t exactly new.
Here’s one with all the barrel adapters included and doesn’t need an app.
I’ve had success laying my bike on it’s side so the sensor can pick it up.
Seems that ZBT is a whitelabel manufacturer, so their millions of units are rebranded and sold under lots of different names. Shame the article didn’t attempt to list any.
The variety is the most fun. Everyone makes this dish differently. How do you make it?

So this is what we’ve come to? “It’s just a prank, bro” and everyone is okay with it?
