  • In the 2000s I worked in IT and we hosted a spam filter. Back then people would send out seemingly harmless email, about Jack’s golf game or the picnic on Sunday, and their goal was to build up their domain’s reputation as a legitimate sender. Then one day they’ll send out spam and it’ll get through the filter until the spam filter catches on and cuts off that domain.



  • Food is produced for people to eat so then why is it so expensive? In other countries food is affordable and it’s obvious that this is the way it should be. I see a lot of people talking about their grocery bill increasing in the last year or two, but I’ve seen a steady increase over the last 10+ years. Food has been expensive for a while.

    I hope you all are cooking- rice, beans, chicken or veggies, soup, etc and not just buying frozen dinners. That stuff isn’t affordable. You can get giant bags of jasmine rice and pinto beans at Costco. They are huge and cheap.








  • I think in life we struggle so much to survive and to care for those we love, and when people we love die it is very difficult. I think most people probably have a natural sense of right and wrong in regards to treatment of the dead. I don’t know that this is a continuation of a person’s right to governance over their body, I think it’s more of a general reverence for life and death that we all experience. I’m surprised to learn that in California where I live human remains are treated like any other property.
