People feel stronger in groups. If these politicians can make their followers feel heard or vindicated, they secure their next vote.

What hurts the most is that this actually makes people feel vindicated...

Yes, and how great would it be to see THOUSANDS of people wear masks in spite of it?  It would take all the wind out of their sails, no?

Got the rice cooker. Can't get it apart.  There must be some sort of latching internally.

Making Stuff Together! / Re: Tinkering with my 87u

I picked up the Cipulot R1 RF 87u PCB from CannonKeys. It was probably not necessary, but gaining QMK support was a big plus for me. That turns this board from a fun weekend board to a productive daily driver with Space-FN etc.

At this point the only thing left from the original board will be the plate.... which I might as well have cerakoted because we're pulling out all the stops here, I guess.

I thought I had bought a bitter melon at an Asian food store, but when I cut it to prepare it I found that it was just a very knobbly cucumber ...

LOL, it should say bitter melon on the little sign they put on the rack. 苦瓜

It's bitter because it's highly alkaline. Supposed to be cancer busting, but the chinese say this about literally everything they eat.  Anecdotal, but the Japanese centenarians (Okinawans), also swears by bitter melons (in preventing cancer).

But this stuff falls into the category of, oh yea, eat this Swallow spit, 燕窝 (bird spit), totally prevents cancer,  yea, because Evolution, would design Monkeys to make out with a Swallow, and that would prevent cancer.


You can try it out, It's great stir-fried in Sugar and Garlic.

This one seems pretty easy to flip.  Just get 10-20 thousand people to put on masks and stand in a public spot.  Could even offer music and snacks.  Cheap and effective at showing the law means nothing and will be quickly reversed.  It's not often that peaceful protest is so easy to achieve.

Or, or,  or,  H5N1 2024,  2 million more people die.  Let's see how this goes.
