How large a flag are you flying? Simple window mount flag holders should work for flags up to about 18" x 12". For a bigger flag, if you have a trailer hitch installed you can get hitch mounted flag pole holders.

Nice flag, btw.

Delaware elected Sarah McBride, who is the first open transgender representative in Congress.

Georgia district attorney Fani Willis, who has been trying to prosecute Trump for trying to overturn the 2020 election, won reelection.

Washington Congressman Dan Newhouse, one of the ten Republicans who voted to impeach Trump (and one of two in that group who survived the subsequent midterm elections), successfully defended his seat again against a Trump-endorsed opponent. That’s at least one Republican in the House who doesn’t always rubber-stamp the party agenda.

Has anyone else bought a durian fruit even after being warned about it? Talk about acquired tastes…

That’s standard practice everywhere else in the US. New Hampshire has this thing about being first, though. They have the earliest presidential primary as well. Releasing early results for this one tiny town is a minor publicity gimmick that shouldn’t have any impact on the overall election. Even the rest of New Hampshire’s towns will wait until Tuesday evening to report their results.

The Associated Press seems to have a decent results presentation ready to go:

I wouldn’t bother watching minute-by-minute. There is a decent chance that some swing state will be close enough to trigger a recount, and/or one side files lawsuits challenging the results. This circus is far from over.

I’m considering getting some cheap USB-powered lights on eBay to wrap my frame for Christmas and New Year’s. I’ll run them off of a phone power bank. Will definitely post pictures if I do it.

Something like this:

A couple of months ago I wrote a single comment

The modlog shows you were having quite a spat with some mods 5 months ago.

Nothing else

Again, the modlog shows otherwise.

Why bring this up now, five months later?

Making quiche for brunch. Apparently an omelet is fine, but a scrambled omelette is gay.

“What is Beehaw”: https://docs.beehaw.org/docs/core-principles/what-is-beehaw/

TL;DR: Beehaw.org is intentionally curated and moderated to try and maintain a “nice” environment free of aggression and trolling.

The influx of Reddit refugees last year was a bit of a shock to their system. The Beehaw admins have floated the idea of leaving Lemmy entirely.

That’s my understanding. Though I have only visited the Kartoffel regions myself.

Some German speakers say “Erdapfel” which is literally “earth apple.”

Ooo, this looks cool. So it’s a self-hosted file management tool that lets you follow other users and share files with them?

I, too, am old.

I assume you mean dollars?

I assume the Fedihosting Foundation would suddenly become a major financial backer of Fediverse projects and instances. Or @ruud@lemmy.world and the money both disappear, never to be seen again. One or the other.

To build on the good answers from superkret and nemo…

The survival Rule of 3’s says that, depending on your situation, you can generally survive:

• three weeks without food.
• three days without drinkable water.
• three hours in a harsh environment (extreme heat or cold).
• three minutes without breathable air, or in icy water.

Finding a way to stay warm and dry at night should probably be your primary concern. Hypothermia kills fast.

You cannot run through a campsite. You can only ran through it.

Because it’s past tents.

Boo. The babylon bee is MAGA pandering trying to pass as humor.

After digging into it, we banned the two sh.itjust.works accounts mentioned in this post. A quick search of the database did not reveal any similar accounts, though that doesn’t mean they aren’t there.

This sounds a bit like a normal non-profit organization, but the board of directors is composed of all donors (the “consumers”).

What’s the incentive for someone to want to be a “worker” in this scenario? I assume they are still paying dues? Are they getting some compensation for doing additional work, or is it an unpaid positions?
