Hi @[email protected] ! Welcome to our small community. As you may have noticed most action occurs in the local politics community. That being said, others post to our wonderful community about Comedy Nights at the Kitten Lounge and various other things.

Definitely take a look around! We are “unofficially” affiliated with the /r/Tucson discord server so if you want to pop into a more “living” space go check that out.

We also have a meetup space at https://meetup.tucson.social/ - feel free to sign up there if you want to coordinate or otherwise don’t want to pay $40 a month for a meetup subscription.

There’s also https://tucson.chat/ if you’re in need of secure chat.

Please reach out to me if you have any ideas for improvement or feedback!

Welcome Again,

Audhd here, It would be nice if it were a quiet log file. I log straight to the console AND it’s probably with DEBUG enabled.

Fuck yeah, I’ll be flying out of TUS tomorrow and I’m happy I won’t have to see that garbage!

Eh, man, that Independent commission is suspect as hell.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arizona's_congressional_districts

So, I used to be in CD2 now I’m in CD6. Used to be fairly democratic leaning in CD2, but CD6 expanded to include the conservative portions of the Foothils and Oro Valley and even goddamn Casa Grande! Hell, they even cut out Douglass and Naco, the border towns, to make it consistently conservative. CD2’s (circa 2020) borders made sense! CD6’s does not.

Don’t even get me started on Paul fucking Gosar in CD9 and negating parts of Phoenix with Rural votes over 300 miles away.

So, I dunno how in the hell the comission is “independent” because these lines are convoluted as hell.

Man, IDK, some of the flags aren’t owned by the businesses but the property owners (shared complexes and such). It’s hard to know what business owner actively supports it, vs just being along for the ride with a MAGA landlord.

Democratic Governor, yes, but she’s very hit or miss with regards to this stuff. Definitely not a well liked politician anymore after a few of these “across the aisle” actions that fucked over the base.

As for Un-Gerrymandered… NOooooooooo. We’re pretty bad here, just check out the last republican redistricting, we lost seats despite growing more democratic.

The democrats are way too busy virtue signalling than actually, y’know, defending democracy.

Yeah as soon as I saw that I went from “must buy” to “eh, maybe if my current laptop breaks”. I mean, I know the iGPU is basically the same as the desktop, but with slower memory it won’t really compare.

Maybe next generation.

You too!? Ha! Today I learned.

I’ll always know exactly how old Linux is. It’s exactly as old as I am.

Eh, it’s more like the pregnancy announcement. Imo the v0.01 release on Sep 17th is a “Birthday”.

But then again I’m biased on this. 🙃

Perfection!

I think I speak for all of Tucson.social when I say fuck this AI bullshit.

Dude’s at the wrong state fair… Not even one senate term and he’s angling for president… Ugh!

How about he focus on doing his job representing Arizonans?

I too appreciate the genetic dynasty story. In the original trilogy the various Emperors were featured so rarely and depicted as utterly incompetent. I think the TV adaptation does a much better job of creating a more compelling and nuanced story for the empire. Not to mention - Lee Pace and others do such an excellent job of playing these various “versions” of themselves.

As an aside, I wonder if

I also wonder how or if

Might want to provide some discussion guidance for book readers.

Otherwise, I thought the episode was pretty good. Definitely not as good as last episode.

Otherwise, as a book reader, I’m starting to grow a little suspicious that

I didn’t get the vibe that he didn’t enjoy it. More that he figures that a typical person wouldn’t enjoy it. And that I would agree with.

Hi! This is what I’m trying to do with tucson.social. Wish the city would get back to me. I don’t want to own/operate Tucson.social alone perpetually. Lol.

It would allow me to expand to a lot more community services outside of social media, chat, and Meetup platforms.

There’s dozens of us! Dozens!

Don’t know why the other poster is giving you such grief there. It’s important to note that when you encrypt your root partition that you can’t view it from refind. It doesn’t have a mechanism to decrypt the contents it finds.

The way to address this is to ensure that you’re using a Unified Kernel Image. Essentially, a full image of your Linux boot image that lives on your EFI partition. Keep in mind it can’t get to your personal data until it decrypts your root disk, but at least you can get things booting.

So, you should take the time to switch to a UKI boot process.

I recommend disabling secure Boot and encryption first and Getting the UKI Boot working through refind. Then add secure boot using sbctl. Then re-encrypt your discs. Since secure boot is all set up at this point, you should be able to back your decryption with your systems TPM chip.

Here’s the page on unified kernel images.

Oh, something that the Tucson Metro Chamber will surely push back on!

Oh wait, no? They just wanna suck off Juan Ciscomani for not gutting Medicaid today.

Huh, I’m beginning to think that the Tucson Metro Chamber doesn’t give a flying fuck about commerce, just the predominantly white business owner class.

Totally get you on that one. Fortunately, usually when someone misuses one of those it’s easy to figure out what they meant.

That being said, constantly using the word deport for illegally disappearing a citizen is far more egregious of a failure than mistaking decimate with devastate.

This is an excellent point. Perhaps my directive should be a little broader. I didn’t really consider that facet!
