  2. I had both the shingles shots a few years ago. Truthfully, for me, it wasn't that bad. Mild temp, some aching. Flu shots have never given me any grief. But every covid shot (and booster) I've had....yeah. Each screwed me over for a couple of days. FYI, I had my yearly physical last Thursday. They had the flu shot, but did not have the covid booster yet.

  4. Well, duh. https://popular.info/p/trump-held-a-contest-to-join-him Trump held a contest to join him on stage at his rally in Butler. Was it a scam?
  5. We have a new concerning meme: And here you go:

  7. With the sheer magnitude of Trump-related shit for sale on street corners, Amazon, social media, etc I'm guessing that's something Donnie's legal department has given up on; of course, they have had more pressing legal issues the past 2-3 years.

  11. For a business, I'd recommend Meraki. There's nothing inherently wrong with Unifi stuff, until there is something wrong. Their support, at least it used to be, was sorta there. Meraki will cost more, plus you have the yearly licensing fee for each Meraki device, but only you can justify how important support + next day replacement for your Meraki gear (which comes with the license) is worth to you. As for your internet connection, with that many users, 1GB is plenty, but you need something more robust than Spectrum cable. Also, invest in a spectrum analysis for access point placement, number of AP's needed for your environment, etc.
  12. This. It will be a real-life Apprentice series with Cruz, etc all trekking to Mar-A-Lago and seeing who can kiss Trump's ass the best to get the nod. There will be contests, "teams", "challenges", and the like. Trump will have his scientists working on how to best monetize the process.
  13. He lost in '20, led an insurrection in an attempt to stay in office, was impeached twice, and has 34 felony counts on him at the moment, and yet, here we are. The GOP was fully consumed by the Trump Organization. And you think the GOP is gonna allow Haley to have the nomination in '28?
  14. When we purchased our house 12 years ago, there was almost a full section of pasture behind our house---surrounded by town. Farmer had it, ran a few hundred head of cattle. Then he passed, and his kids sold the ground to developers. Around 2020, they started clearing the land and doing all the excavation work for streets, utilities, etc. I watched the guys with the boring rigs do what you described. Dig a hole about 4 foot deep, run the boring machine in that hole, and have it come up around 100 feet away. Then repeat the process. They ran 4 inch or so conduit in the ground, then pulled copper through that, then stuck a transformer (or whatever that is) where they had each hole. Then as the ground was being prepared for a slab, another contractor would dig a trench from the transformer to where the power was going to enter the house. Same technique that ATT and the cable company was doing, just with larger conduit, and deeper trenching. The contractor doing the water/sewer/storm drains for the city took a helluva lot longer, due to having to trench everything.
