Whoops, sorry! I keep forgetting The NY Times has two share buttons.

Try this link: https://www.nytimes.com/2023/08/09/opinion/child-labor-laws.html?unlocked_article_code=A2x6Sd7gac3JXDsMRmWPk-nESPjtUMa839ytmhdPCylfzNqBVNCcXlDJrhCDCzloH5pq6TQ04Dg8iEblUN8e5PGwyuh6mdTgszlvBx3iC9KmZSF_N_Wb3eR4hFXmyU-27Nzlp4pDltujzJpLkKbYn3slmM58Guse6tuedLNZCdlhBZmOr7QLS4YktNuQS0sjQS_JYQHpxRM8Y_V0l2ehjlMYwA1XZ6p3FEsEbfA087ipLzhe4Hm7B5yiW6mRxlm7aRDPcTPlcws92DUTzRSAE--CSmblq4Z74_fHC2pLCkvLK49a9ds1dHhc23CCGN7HdhT9H9uEHCd5jFw&smid=url-share

It’s a nationwide company, mostly doing less then truckload hauls. Mostly saw them around bigger cities. Teamsters outfit, like most of the LTL companies. When I first started in the trucking industry it was called YRC, I think.

Was wondering how long it would take.

Does anyone actually use LXD? I never could figure out the deal with this.

My biggest problem has always been the available range. The charging infrastructure in the South is largely nonexistent and I work 60 miles from my house. The only way I could go electric would be to gut and rewire my house to add a charger (The 120v one wouldn’t cut it) and have a way to top up the charge at work during the winter. The cost of the car itself is only half the problem for me.

I was looking real hard at the Lightning when it came out and was about to pull the trigger on the truck and everything associated with it when the towing range came out. Yikes! I haven’t been that disappointed in a long while.

Nobody but us chickens. 😁

So I figured. I’m all for the 2nd Amendment, but the fear-mongering on both sides of the aisle really needs to stop.

Here’s an idea! Don’t trust Google or rely on their products.

Damn, that meme is cursed. I feel like I need to wash my eyes with bleach now.

One of my senators (Senator Tubberville) is attempting to force his religious beliefs onto the military. Specifically he seems to have a problem with the military supporting family planning. To do that he has been holding up confirmations of military officers. As a result of his actions, we have lost out on a new military base, our nation’s national security has been put at risk and he has made Alabama an even bigger laughingstock than it already was.

As you may have guessed, I am not a fan of his.

So…. Are the Republicans in Colorado trying to ensure a Democratic Party victory?

Ain't that the damned truth!

Good bot!

In other, unrelated news, VPN’s are experiencing an unexpected spike in traffic. More at 5.

I used to start with searching Reddit, though that has been of less help lately. Wikipedia is helpful for getting a baseline if I have no clue about a subject. Lately ChatGPT has been helpful there as well.

And then of course, all search engines still accept boolean searches but you kinda need to 1) know the syntax the engine uses and 2) have a rough idea of what you are looking for.

Sorry, no Google documentation was relevant.

Not too hard. Just alot of unfamiliar vocabulary. 😄 If you run into any questions with either of our walk throughs, (my linux one or @lemming934@lemmy.sdf.org 's Powershell one), feel free to DM me. Don't mind helping folks starting their exploration of computers. We all started somewhere.

Nice! I knew someone would know how to do this in PowerShell!

Just search for tutorials based on the key words from my post and you'll get there.

I am sorry for the RTFM post though. Been a rough day and haven't been able to get near a computer to do a better write up for you.
