Federal legislation doesn't need to be passed to restore states rights, it merely has to be wiped from the books.

I'm not jealous about gun control. Because if somebody breaks into my house, I can protect my family myself instead of calling 911 and waiting for them to never show up. Have fun waiting for the police, I hope nothing bad ever happens to you.

Re:Deploying Kubernetes with Ansible on Tuesday March 07, 2023 @01:16PM (#35058911)
My conclusion is that using Ansible with Kubernetes is the WRONG way to go about it. So now instead of a directory of yaml or helm charts we have a bunch of ansible uselessly wrapping the yaml for application.
Re:Debian 12 “Bookworm” Enters Its Soft Freeze on Saturday February 18, 2023 @09:55PM (#34853790)
Debían is legit. Bounced around for years. Debian is the best.
Also the fear of people abusing ADHD drugs is causing massive amounts of harm. I have a legitimate issue but the drugs are highly controlled and I am viewed with suspicion. It's very very hard to get the drugs I need and I am treated like a criminal during the whole painful process. Meanwhile I could easily buy $100 of street drugs that would last me a YEAR with much less pain and suffering and hoops.

The government needs to get out of drug prohibition. It doesn't work. Let the medical community handle things. The DEA has no business setting production limits or even existing for that matter.

Morphine abuse, not morphine deaths. The sad fact is that the illegality of these drugs is the factor fueling the creation of dangerous variants.

People gonna use their drugs.

So you've decided to support an ideology that restricts the freedom of all people to do as they please because you think it's harmful for them. I've decided >20g per day of carbs is harmful for people that choose to do it. Watch out buddy I'm going for bread pasta etc... I don't think people should be able to eat it. I'm coming for your rights.

So to be clear, you are saying my tax money should be used to house the homeless, at exorbitant rates, while I cannot afford to buy house myself.

I don't agree with this. I don't think homelessness can be solved by building more housing. Not sure if you have lived near homeless encampments before. If you know you know.

None. I’ve tried quite a bit. Amphetamines/Methamphetamine is the only thing that works well for me. And daily exercise + lots of sleep.
Don’t do it, seems like a terrible idea
Don’t do it
"Allowing" as if people don't have the god-given right to put whatever they want into their own bodies.
