To add to others, wind also is generated when a rain “microburst” occurs.This happens frequently in the southwest U.S.

A microburst is when a very large amount of water is dropped out of the clouds. The gaining rain speed pushes the air below it out of the way. The air is pushed outward horizontal to the ground, which in essence is a massive wall of wind.

Often in the Sonoron desert a microburst causes the wind to push a lot of dirt from the ground surface to be blown out with the wind. When this happens it’s called a haboob. The wall of thick dust and particles can be up to a mile high and as wide as a city.

Below is a link to an image of a haboob over Phoenix, Arizona.

Very interesting. Thank you for taking the time to contribute your knowledge. I appreciate it.

Not if they are regulated to put an “In Full or in Part AI Generated” label on it.

I think we’re there. The future is today.

Treat them how you would wish to be treated when you are old, forgetful, stubborn, deaf, and slower. Getting old can suck. It’s angering. It hurts. They are humans with emotions. Don’t forget that.

Oh okay. I didn’t realize that. Wow.

6 million dollars apiece is cheap?

I think some news companies are trying to sue him for linking to articles without paying them, which is a strange turn of events given it wasn’t too long ago that businesses would paid you to link to their site (that’s what Elon says anyway; I’m not in web commerce so I don’t know personally how it works.) So, I guess he wants to have people write the news on his site instead?

I think news companies are going bust?

Agreed about INI for simple stuff. Not good for arrays and nested things though. Usually use binary for that type of config (with clear documentation). Most binary config files I use are plain old C structures. I’m not a web person so no need to make the config plain text.

Todo.txt plain text file. Use Vim. Date and todo statement. Sometimes more for explanations. I never delete anything in it; just make an X next to todo’s I’ve completed. File goes back many years. I can easily search for something I did a long time ago.

And then there’s MS OneNote for capturing howto’s, quick script one-liners, cheat sheets, diagrams, notes on various industry interfaces, etc.

Then there’s SCM for bug, feature, and track tasking.

And usually notepad paper and pen for meetings, which if there are todo’s, go into my electronic todos.txt file.

That’s how I pronounce it, just to be weird. I also say ja-lap-oh-no and kay-so-dilla.

Last time I heard about it, it was exactly like you mention. I find the articles very misleading.

En English (US): bah•low•nee

In Italian: Bo•low•nya

I’d also discourage just picking news from the center. You’ll miss a lot, as understanding the left viewpoint and right viewpoint are important for a holistic picture.

In what country is lemm.ee hosted?

This is really good info, thanks.

I read it. Even looked at firefish.social. I fail to see the difference. It’s people posting and people replying just like here. Or do I need to actually sign up to see the differences? Or can some one elaborate, because this simply smells of advertisement.

I never thought about that. That’s a great idea.

They are appealing to the fallacy that hiding things means bad behavior.

Not true. There are plenty of good reasons to hide things. Social security numbers, income, bank account info, even personal preferences.

Privacy != bad

Just basic, simple talk with nurse. No details because you’ll need to repeat it all for the doc anyway.
