@geniusmusing They only restrict consumer-facing uses, while the farm industry continues to use around 90% of #California’s water and industrial uses take 8-9%.
The water industry has known for decades that our estimates of “normal” are based on a particular high-precipitation period, and that desalinization is the only way to sustain the current usage levels and population.

lots of reassembled PDUs in this pcap. Is that bad?

Accuweather says that Mercury and Jupiter will have a conjunction (when they appear close together from the earth) tomorrow morning (Friday, 2021-03-05), about an hour before sunrise.
I am not planning to try to see it.

@corbin is on Cody's "RambleCast" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pWzbl8TN7_E

They're still going, but it is time for #coin-laundry and shipping #GS3's new books.
-
The weird thing is that @corbin’s microphone goes weird after a certain amount of time, so generally when I’m watching those casts, it generally ends with Corbin needing to leave. But I think he uses the same one when he’s streaming games, where I haven’t heard the same things happening.

Also, sonTwo’s $EMPLOYER called him back to work. It’ll be good to have something besides unemployment insurance benefits, with all their requirements (and the additional anti-fraud hurdles that states are erecting because of the magnitude of fraudulent payouts).

I found this at the laundromat. I don't know whether it works. I didn't touch it. https://nu.federati.net/attachment/280043

I haven't heard Daddy_A mentioning #Cyberpunk_2077 in a while. I don't know if that means the game lacks staying power or perhaps he's just trying not to overload us with his discussion.
But also, from the way he described the game, it isn't so much Eastern European jankiness as it is "only runs well on the newest hardware". I've never seen it except for watching someone stream it one day.

This is why it is critical the internet become decentralized and peer to peer for practically everything. It needs it sooner rather than later, before terrorist organizations can get their stupid oppressive laws passed.

Sacred bovine! How can someone be this intentionally ignorant?
"Jews are not just the cause of every serious social problem in the west, they prevent these problems from being solved. They prevent these problems from being talked about. But there's only one real problem worth talking about - how jews are murdering the White race."

@simsa03 It does seem that way. Not too long ago, I visited a fast food place and saw someone who had been working there around thirty years.

I retrieved some cans of Diet Coke from home when I went to pick up my tax info. I opened one a couple of evenings ago. Flavorless!
Turns out they had expired late in 2020, so I just poured the contents down the drain.
