    In the US, people in the military are required to have background checks before they even go to bootcamp. I even had to be held back for an extra 6 months to go to bootcamp because of a single flag on my record that ended up being a mistake on the part of the military. The fact that politicians can be put into such positions of power without even a simple background check is horrifying. I can't believe just how far George Santos was able to get without a single person even questioning things until way later.

    As someone from Houston, I can’t believe how people reacted to the California rain. Not the people from California, but people outside of it. Rain over a short period of time is deadly. Especially when you’ve only had drought because the water won’t absorb. I remember Harvey. How terrifying and helpless it was watching the water approach my house.

    The gas stove thing is funny to me because Hank Green made a video about how electric/induction stoves are better 10 months ago. In it, he specifically asked viewers to not get up in arms over others "taking away" your gas stoves when it comes time to change to electric. Hank knew people would have a hissy fit over this. Also, I have a gas stove and I hate using it because I don't have a vent hood over it, so I'm happy to make the change.

    • @theuglykwan
      @theuglykwan Pƙed rokem +3

      I prefer gas stoves and had some minor whining when switching to electric. I don't think I'd go back as the electric one allows you to set it to switch off after a certain time (gas ones here don't have that function). Plus boiling over won't extinguish the flame and lead to gas being pumped into the house.
      My mother lives with me so I don't feel like dying. I mean even with electric there's been a few mishaps but with gas I think I'd have died 100 times by now due to half senile mother.

But these people, no matter how minor something is, it’s the worst possible thing if it’s directed at them. I’m a very “your feelings are valid” kind of person, but if they seriously feel they’re being victimised on the same level as people subjected to concentration camps, they genuinely need help, or they’re lying because they need to be the victims, but it’s most likely both.

    Wizards response to the D&D situation was worse than silence, it was full of blatant lies, mischaracterizations, and PR speech. They tried to backstab the community for profit and when they got called out on it they basically said. "No we were planning on doing what you wanted us to all along, it was just a test" (ignoring that they had creators on a one week deadline to sign or lose their license) And saying it was about inclusivity, being a good game steward, when nothing that was changed or added had any effect like that.

They also did NOT mention the most dangerous potions of the changes. That does not even begin to cover the dozens of publishers who are banding together to create a new license and game systems to just bypass Wizards full stop. It's madness right now.

      @@lifeunderthestarstv The best analogy I have heard is this: Imagine a family member offers to pay for your college tuition. You push back that you can't take that much money but they insist and promise that it is not a loan, you don't have to pay it back and they just want to help you out. Years later, when you are done with school and are getting your own good job, the family members says "I want 25% of your salary from now on because I paid for your tuition". They are not in some bad financial situation where they need money baddly and they don't ask you for help, they just demand the money from now on.
      That is what Wizards is doing, but worse, because it was not just a verbal promise to one person, it was a written license that was stated to be perpetual that they are revoking after 20 years.
      If they had said "For One DnD (The next thing they are making) and other things going forwards there will be a new contract" that would have sucked, but would be ok as that is exactly what they did for the 4th edition. But that is not what they are doing. They are revoking a 20-year-old agreement that they promised would last and that entirely new things have been built off. They are going back on their word after letting people build their lively hoods on that word over 20 years. People even repeatedly asked if there was any possibility of them revoking the license to make sure it was safe to build a company around it, and they said they would never change it.

    On the D&D story there is much more involved. A message on Wednesday from someone inside Wizards of the Coast said that the management were angry at the customers, saying they are overreacting and that it will just blow over. Also they felt we were obstacles between them and our money. The message also mentioned that they were using subscription numbers from DnD Beyond as a metric to gauge the community. As a result the community en masse cancelled their subscriptions and made it clear OGL 1.1 was the reason. The result was the DnD Beyond servers were overtaxed and they lost thousands of customers. This is what prompted the "apology" which was littered with lies and half truths. One - the leaked document was not a draft, it was a real contract that several creators received, and was supposed to be signed and supposed to go into effect on Jan 13. Two - The ownership of third party materials under the contract was EXPLICITLY written to be "shared" by the creator and Wizards, but Wizards had a perpetual, irrevocable, re-licenseable ability to use their material however they saw fit. The language in the document was very clear on that point. As it was written, a creator could write a module and put it up for sale, Wizards could take that module and put it in a book, sell it, give the creator nothing, not even a credit in the book, and if the creator complains, cancel the contract. Leaving only suing a billion dollar company to get anything, and the only protection the creators have over this is "Trust me bro, we would never do that."

      The document doesn't work under copyright law anyway for how they're trying to make it sound. The document as a whole is meaningless because Wizards doesn't and can't have a copyright on the processes used to make the game (rules of the game) as a whole. Just the specific rules they made.
      Wizards have the copyright and trademark on any material they make, but 3rd party issuers just have to not use copyright or trademark items and they won't be subject to this at all. Also, Wizards can't use player made stories/artwork in their items as they don't hold the copyright or trademark to them, and can be sued if they do so. Wizards has to prove it's a D&D copyright or trademark infringement which is really hard to do if you just have a story or piece of are, it could as easily be a book or movie outline and artwork someone made for a different porpoise so good luck with them trying to get around that. Unless the artwork or story specifically saids D&D it will be almost impossible for them to prove.
      Things like classes, skills, common monster names/mythical creatures, real town names/common names, leveling, and many more have been in games for over a hundred years and are incapable of being copyrighted or trademarked. So there's that too.

      @@gearfordragnavar1361 Absolutely. The problems arose because everyone making D&D content used the original OGL because it was the easiest way to prevent copyright infringement. Now with OGL 1.1 (or 2.0) the original was unauthorized meaning WotC could sue if they didn’t sign the new version. They probably don’t have enough to win a lawsuit, but they have enough to not be immediately thrown out of court, and they have enough money to keep the creators in court for a long time. Meaning they can bully everyone into complying.

    With the California rain situation, it’s yet another reminder of “Just because it’s normal for you, it isn’t normal for anyone else.” The week of Valentine’s Day of 2021 when Texas had that snow storm, the infrastructure wasn’t suited for such low temperatures and damaged the old pipes to where water advisories were set in place. Then all of the heat waves that have happened. I’m from Texas, I’m used to hot summers. However, there are many places in people who aren’t used to that and may not have much knowledge on how to prevent heat strokes.

      Well said! I am from Central California, and our summers are regularly weeks on end of triple digit temperatures. We will often get to 110 and over for at least a few days every year.

      The issue with California rain situation is, the coverage given and lack of coverage on other weather events that were more extreme or deadly. I lived through two majorly destructive weather events in the span of 12 years, the Flood of 2008 and the Derecho of 2020. Both of these had at their time, annihilated half the city. You could see the Derecho scars from space. Since it's not California. Franco didn't cover it until a few days later when aid was slow coming.

      For real. I'm in Colorado & we had historic flooding in 2013 from a few weeks of concentrated heavy rainfall. At first it didn't seem like a big deal, we're known for crazy variable weather & we go through cycles of plenty of snowfall & some rainy (for us) years, but our environment & infrastructure just couldn't handle it. It really hit me that it was serious when I saw an I-70 offramp with a big few-foot section cracked apart/washed out. Like sure, roads also washed out in the mountains & isolated mountain towns for weeks, but thanks to snowmelt & fires, that's not a major novelty ... but this wrecked offramp was down on the plains in Denver, near DIA. The city had just never seen anything like that, not in living memory anyway. Our storm drains handled the flash floods during the big drought/storm cycles in the '90s, but 2013 overflowed everything, hell they had to cancel bus routes because some streets flooded enough to be undriveable, & many homeowners had up to tens of thousands of dollars in repairs to make from water damage just from driving rain even if they were positioned to not get flooded in the usual sense.
      I very much sympathize with CA right now, especially understanding how crazy it is to have ground so dry it can't help absorb water at any decent pace. It floods & floods & floods, & then it's all cracked hexagons again as soon as the sun comes back lol it's wild

    Tip to people living in snowy/power out prone areas and have an electric stove: get a camping stove set. I grew up in the forest in Sweden and trees causing power outs is something I've experienced several times. For this reason my parents have a camping stove set, so that no matter what we can always make food. They also have a fire place and make sure to stook up on wood etc. Whenever you live outside the city, it's wise to prep for these kinds of situations. :)

Those people will only be half right. They won-and so did we." Nobody won in this, which is where the fanbase is still pissed. They tried screwing us over, got caught and back-peddled while being dicks about it. We lost, because they're making us chose between the game we love and the evils their perpetrating.

    I think airfriers are very likely to actually be a viable way to save money - if you use a tiny oven instead of a big one, you use less energy to heat the oven, and a larger percentage of the energy heats the food. regular size ovens are too big for pretty much any single person meal, so if you cook for just yourself, a small oven is likely to be a good idea.

      I agree, but with countertop ovens instead of air fryers (I personally hate independent air fryers). I literally use my countertop oven every day and more frequently than my actual oven. I can actually cook for 3-5 people depending on what I am making. I bought a high quality, large countertop oven a few years ago, for this exact reason. I can roast a 6-8lb chicken, food cooks so much faster, I have double racks, all the same benefits of an oven, there's an air fry option, I can dehydrate and do so many things, I can do rotisserie, my house doesn't overheat, cooking is bearable in the summer, and so much more. My countertop oven is one of the best home purchases I've made throughout the years.

      "Air fryers" are just little convection ovens, typically with significantly worse build quality and smaller capacity than similarly-priced convection toaster ovens. Their biggest advantage is that their smaller capacity reduces the necessity of preheating. If you already have a convection toaster oven, an air fryer is probably not worth the money and counter space.

    Brian, you are just wrong about airfryers.

Also, as Phil mentioned, if you have a side dish you need to cook at a different temperature from your main course, you can use it concurrently.
    The model I use has a variety of settings from toast, airfry, as well as even non-convection oven and broil settings. The best thing about it being a smaller oven, is it takes less time to preheat and uses less energy in the process. Why waste all the time and extra energy to heat up a larger area if you only need a little bit of space to cook?

This area is supposed to be super safe, it’s been named as one of the best places to live and to raise a family in the United States, so it’s seriously shocking and we’re all just completely stunned, grieving, and numb. At the Lunar New Year festival, I was literally thinking about how there could be a mass shooting because of how many people there were in the crowd, as I do in crowded or enclosed places having grown up in America and hearing about mass shootings almost constantly. But never in my wildest dreams did I ever realistically think it could actually happen here, no matter how paranoid I am. I think maybe many of us have entertained the thought of “what if it happens here?”, but now that it’s actually happened it’s completely surreal to see your home town in condolence statements and on the news around the U.S and internationally. I went to the vigil at Monterey Park City Hall today and there were so many media reporters and cameras there. People knew the victims, people I knew have been to Stardance studio before or knew people who did.

      Fellow Canadian here, incredibly annoyed by the other Canadians who seem to think they're American. We are inextricably tied to the states, but we are a different country with a different government. That doesn't seem to stop the idiots who want to cite the first amendment as an excuse for bad behaviour, as if that even means anything up here.

    I grew up in Central Washington State, in an area that is *technically* a semi-aired desert. If that area got the same level of rain that California is getting, the mudslides would be devastating. 85-90% of the moisture that area gets is supposed to come from run-off water from snow during the winter. Something that it hasn't been getting much of since I was probably in middle school in the late 90s.

    I'm still worried about the ramifications of January 6th. I lived in Alexandria VA, right next to 395 that day and I remember the caravans of police cars racing to the capital to help. The VA governor put us under curfew that night too. My husband still had to go into the capital for work that night because he worked for the state department doing the security and guarding embassies. I spent the whole night terrified. The insurrection happened. Anyone who says otherwise can screw off and anyone who participated in it is a traitor and should have been prosecuted as such.

      I'm worried that we didn't take it seriously enough and put measures in place to make sure it doesn't happen again. You can say you're not happy with how an election went but trying to overthrow the government is something completely different. As for what my husband thinks, he was surprised it got that far but his job was completely separate from Capitol Hill police. They normally don't have issues dealing with protesting, even if it changes to an angry mob. I also have a friend who was apart of the VA National Guard who was activated to restore order. She says it was annoying because some congress people were trying to come to them for photo ops.

    As someone who's lived in Rhode Island my entire life, seen all kinds of weather, and gets to experience the seasons every year, my heart really goes out to everyone impacted by the rain in California. I have been in awful blizzards where we couldn't travel for three days, but I have dealt with that my whole life and as such, am usually prepared for it. It is a byproduct of living in an area that gets weather. California, on the other hand, is not fully equipped in every area of the state to handle the weather that they got. People had to evacuate their homes, they were urged not to drive...it is scary as heck! The first day or two, yeah it was kinda like "okay guys, we get it, you don't see rain often," but when it just kept coming it became very clear that it wasn't just a light rainstorm. It became increasingly dangerous, and all I could think about were the people in low income areas that had to weather these rainstorms. I'm just hoping everyone made it through okay, it's really hard to see some of the videos and pictures of the aftermath.

    Ok Cali native who was in high school in the 90s - we used to get wierd flooding storms at least once a year. There was one huge storm in 1991 or 1992 that filled the Santa Ana river so much we had PSAs warning people not to go in the river. There were news reports with video of people kayaking and body surfing that must exist somewhere. In 1997, we had a storm so bad in Nov, whole neighborhoods in the beach cities were flooded. I was staying at a friend's in Huntington and my car got stuck in waist high water trying to leave thier house. Dozens of cars were abandoned just in the middle of the street and I had to wade my way back to the house. We had to wait a full day for it to dry out enough for the tow trucks to get through. There has to be records of this stuff.

    Canadian here! Regarding the Canadian referring to the trucker protest being equivalent to Jan 6th- that is a total exaggeration. In the US they had rioters breaking into government buildings being violent. The truckers just blocked roads and camped out in front of parliament. Which I will remind you did not affect as many people as we think given the fact that majority of government employees who work in that area were still working from home.
