Idealist.org has been a job board for non profits for decades, and you can find volunteer positions there at times. Once upon a time I even worked at idealist itself when they had …

I can tell that most of you don't live in Oregon. When I had a gas car up until two years ago, and I mostly got gas at CostCo. I did live in Virginia for three years. And I would s…

Same in Oregon. I've had to wait multiple times for a slot to come available while traveling.

The worst will be blackouts for NBA games for this. I had NBA TV for one season, but because I live in the Portland area, I can not watch Portland trailblazers games. It was ridicu…

Also related and shown in the diagrams in the linked article, why are so many babies born on Friday, and less on Saturday? Doctors/nurses want their weekends too, so inducements / …

I really like this (no longer updated) website devoted to north american accents https://www.aschmann.net/AmEng/

SMS that is not usable from all my other non-phone computers! For this reason alone, I greatly prefer iMessage/discord/slack/whateverIsNext so I can use it on my phone and my compu…

Thank you so very much. I used your guides heavily when working on my senior project doing linux networking at the system level many years ago!

I used to feel that way, then I got an electric car with a 250 mile range last year. I really have not felt the desire to ever have a gasoline car since. Hybrids have so many more …

I live in Oregon, and I went for long drive last weekend. I tried to charge twice at Electrify America charging stations... and both had lines of people waiting! I will appreciate …

Colorado/Montanta/etc are just too damn cold in the winter for homeless to survive, so they migrate to other warmer places

How about http://www.armory.com/ , a geek house in Santa Cruz from the late 80s through the 90s? If you look at the list of images at http://www.armory.com/images/ , you'll find ht…

I agree with the annoyance at the change. I would recommend BetterTouchTool ( https://folivora.ai/ ) to get back the ability to maximize windows with a click. Also you can drag win…

Absolutely, The Decameron by Boccaccio, written in 1353 just a few years after the plague struck Italy in 1348: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Decameron Rather than a novel, it …
