  • Polish site I ran into shows similar "CIA" labeled bins in the background on photos of Epstein with woody Allen (?)

    https://m.jbzd.com.pl/obr/4387113/epstein-nie-byl-powiazany-ze-sluzbami

    The comments seem to be implying this is the office of a European leatherworking company, Miret y Cia, SA. But it would be weird to label all your bins "Co" as in "and Company" right? So idk

  • They are in Philly, not Minneapolis/St Paul

    also of interest, from the description (machine translated):

    *Two days after our report was published, Paul Birdsong released a video explaining that Aaron Dixon, a former member of the Black Panthers who mentored him and allowed him to use the name “Black Panther Party for Self-Defense,” had withdrawn his support for the group. They therefore decided to rename themselves the "Black Lion Party for International Solidarity." However, their mission and activities remain the same.

  • if you buy 3-4 meals worth at a time you can make this work where I live. Not including costs to get to the store or prepare the food ofc.

  • AOC types will talk about food deserts but idk what concrete measures there have been to address them besides zohran's municipal grocery stores idea. And obviously food deserts are only one small slice of the problem

  • if the "one other thing" is beans, and you are a small person with modest caloric needs, you could actually do this in my area. but you need to be able to cook and refrigerate the fresh foods. (plus as the OP says, nearly $300/mo/person on food isn't actually that small of a budget)

    6.18 3lbs chicken thighs (1lb per day = 800 kcal) 2.79 30x corn tortillas (10 per day = 500 kcal) 3.00 1lb broccoli (entire lb per day = 150 kcal) 1.50 can of black beans (1.5 can per day = 630 kcal)

    2.06+0.97+3.00+2.25 = TOTAL $8.28, 2080 kcal

    leaves enough room to maybe involve some oil or seasoning occasionally, or dial up the beans or tortillas for more calories. Still a joke of a proposal I just enjoyed doing the math.

  • NYC Mayoral Inauguration bans Raspberry Pi and Flipper Zero alongside explosives

    Jump

  • Yeah. My thing is: if your event's security or proceedings can be disrupted by a flipper, which at least in default form has relatively limited capabilities, you should probably focus on fixing those low hanging fruit issues over banning it, which is unlikely to be 100% successful

  • NYC Mayoral Inauguration bans Raspberry Pi and Flipper Zero alongside explosives

    Jump

  • it's a nitpick but they're right, that's a stupid way to make that sort of list, and there is little practical purpose to banning those specific items, especially the raspberry pi.

    The little dig (I have to hope it was intended as a dig) about bringing on harris campaign staff also was funny

  • Story that I don't think was covered here: the sinking of russian cargo ship Ursa Major, which is now a year later being alleged by a spanish newspaper to have been carrying nuclear reactors to DPRK for their nuclear submarine program (which I didn't know was a thing tbh), and report from inspecting the wreckage indicating it was sunk by "external explosions" (they are claiming the holes in the ship were consistent with supercavitating torpedos)

  • yeah its a known viewing area for spacex launches. I mean the article isn't 100% clear but contextually it seems like its the bit of beach right there where the rio grande meets the gulf. I bet someone got annoyed with people going to mexico to watch DoD spacex launches or something

  • they do this thing where even if the car was stolen, or other circumstances where the owner bears no fault, it often just gets taken to the same impound lot with all other towed vehicles, where it starts accumulating storage fees for every day it sits there.
