I hear (and have seen it first hand) that much US food is grown and harvested by undocumented immigrants, thank MAGA for fixing it!

Oh?
Tell me more!

Wires strung between poles is so 19th century, especially when someone drives a high load underneath.
Or during an electric storm or a tornado.

Where I live all last mile cables are single and we have a great up time like >99.9%.
But it's not as good as the power supply at 99.99963%
When it does go wrong it's fixed fast and efficient, in the mean time the desperate can use the 5G dongle in the modem/router.
So get your local authority to work for their tax paying voters.

I use Firefox as my main browser.

I can't uninstall Chrome though, because so many sites break on Firefox (and like major sites too, like Gencon's website or really annoying things like hotel wifi login sites) I have to keep Chrome around to keep my computer usable.

I don't care about Pocket or these other useless things. All I want from Firefox is for them to figure out why their tech stack is incompatible with Chrome and fix it. Even if it's not standards compatible. Make a compatibility layer so I can uninstall Chrome spyware.

Um - on a geek site I would expect that readers would be familiar with the huge role copper plays in the grid. If you don't know this, jfgi.

I am a full professor, and at my school apparently I could be assigned any menial task if I cannot reach my teaching load. This is a real issue as we are all being forced to 4/4 from 3/3 next year, as the school canned our research releases.

Professors of marketing and management are not intellectuals. They are ultimately shills for the commercial world, as we see here. Their biggest concern is to shift more widgets.

Spot on!
The USofA is big enough to do more by themselves but it'll take years and/or a lot of pain to replace all the foreign input.

My heart is caffeine intolerant.

What is wrong with an edit button by the name of preview?

I use a Canon 6d, which does not natively provide focus peaking. I also have no interest in mirrorless cameras, as I prefer looking through glass to looking through an EVF.

I like it for focus peaking, esp. for my manual Samyang 8mm f3.5. And back when I had the 400d, ML gave me a spot-meter.

What is wrong with Nissan?
Since a good 2½ years I have an Ariya and it's done over 50,000 kms, after some initial teething problems an OTA update fixed them and all is great.
For good measure, I've had other Nissan’s like the 350Z and 370Z, they were more reliable than the Porsches I drove before.

Not shiny. Artisanal.
