In reply to: Benjamin Neusse‘s article Raw Milk, give it to me straight has a new comment Raw Milk, give it to me straight Government authorizers and large dairy companies who’ve have spent lots of money on pasteurization e […] ViewThis is a major pet peeve of mine. Because the laws against advertising raw milk are strictly enforced in my region, people who have a connection must act like they are dealing drugs, careful to divulge the source only to those friends who have been vetted. It’s ridiculous, we’re talking about natural milk that humans have been drinking for…[Read more]

I thought this was for real until I got to the candidate quotes near the end. I couldn’t believe it, yet sadly I could, if you know what I mean.

Is it legal for police to withhold the complete vehicle accident report from someone being charged with homicide? The person I know was told they only disclose the report if it goes to trial, but yet the report is the basis for the DA pressing charges and will no doubt strong arm the accused into pleading guilty and taking a deal to avoid the…[Read more]

I’m starting to think requiring annual vehicle registrations is just another excuse to let police officers pull you over and investigate you for no real reason. The state has to know that some fraction of drivers are going to forget to renew because they’re distracted, or because the only for of notification sent is a single postcard that could…[Read more]

That’s the one thing I’m still stuck using Google drive for, since I want to be able to quickly access and edit a couple spreadsheets from multiple devices (Android and PC).

Not a fair comparison. East German wall was built to keep people in.

Your passphrase (and data?) are transmitted plain-text to a “special server” which does the encryption before passing it to the main servers. They say this only resides in encrypted memory during your active session and never written to…[Read more]

@kenj hello stranger. You were the first to send me a request, and might I say your picture makes me think of that parody movie. 🙂

Stranger no more 🙂
That’s just me on a happy day, I have no idea why people keep getting me confused with some other guy. -
@kenj
All days are happy in the land ruled by Ken Jons-un!
I am very happy!

Test post. This site sure has some quirks to it, but I’ll give it a chance. It’s not very Android friendly using Firefox, even using the Android app.
-
I share your pain! I guess if I used the same OS/Browser as the developers, the site would be fast, smooth and non-quirky. But hang in there … it’s worth it.
-
I use Firefox on an Android device and it works great (better than the app).
-
@davidmontgomery Maybe the site’s caching doesn’t reach me in the UK, or something 🙁
-
It seems generally slow, but for another example; Firefox on Android I cannot edit my profile to upload a picture or save anything. I click save changes and it just does nothing.
-
I roll with chrome on android and pc and it’s pretty smooth. I think the site is still growing a little, guess I’m patient
