The internet is such a strange place

I don’t see a specific place to report an offensive plate, but I did send an email to the Indiana BMV. They review personalized plates and reject some, so this must have slipped past their radar.

Yep! That’s what I do. I use just about everything else in Proton’s ecosystem, but I choose to use Bitwarden as my password manager. Just feels like better practice to not be wholly dependent on Proton for all my security.

What is the best model of used ThinkPad to purchase?

I’m thinking of picking up a used ThinkPad on eBay for cheap to serve as my daily driver. I’ll likely run LMDE, and primarily use it for web browsing, office programs, coding, and FreeCAD. Any recommendations on which model would best hit the sweet spot of capability vs price?

Yep, I think it’s what I’ll be going with!

As long as the insides work all right, I’m good! I’m into thrifting and visible mending, so something well-loved, but cheap, is right up my alley

Pretty cool. I’ll consider subscribing

Indiana Law Requires Professors to Promote ‘Intellectual Diversity’ or Face Penalties (www.nytimes.com)

Alice Pawley, a professor of engineering education at Purdue University, said that many faculty members in Indiana were angered by the new restrictions, and that “nobody trusts that this is actually going to be fairly applied.” Many felt discouraged about their job security, believing it would be at the mercy of trustees who...

Indiana has the second or third largest naval base in the country - Crane Naval Base. Oddly, it’s nowhere near water in the middle of nowhere in the southern part of the state. The military and defense contractors do a lot of recruiting for engineers at Purdue.

It’s amazing how if you ask the Boomers I know, they’ll tell you that cities are terrifying and riddled with crime every few feet. But when you actually go a city, it’s pretty normal. Maybe a bit less foot traffic and a few more unhoused people than pre-COVID, but still pretty much the same. Definitely not the war zone they describe!

To be fair, there is open source hardware- Arduino and whatnot. But a microcontroller is a lot simpler than a full computer.
