backstory is that i try to fill up my tank more when gas prices are at a low and less as prices go up to make my long term average cost per gallon lower.

now given current events, and empirical reality, gas has only been going up and will continue to go up. we could assume different curves(only constraint being that price per gallon goes up as time goes forward), but if you buy your gas now you will spend less money then you have if you bought it tomorrow, day after, or week down the road. my estimate is that it will be month minimum before it gets cheaper.

now that I have put this out there into the world you should fill up asap, I already filled up before making this post and other people will come up with this idea independently of me.

The reason why I'm cross posting here is because my advice will trigger acceleration in increasing gas prices and I view that as a means to spite trump and put pressure on him by effectively by people not in politics. Lemmy users are getting mad at me for telling others to buy gas as soon and as much as possible to save money

Seems boring dystopia to me and I'm helping to remove the crust off a shit sandwich

A former Cedarville University finance professor whose writings promote a Christian ethic of marriage and sexuality was arrested Tuesday on eight sex-related felony charges involving one or more minors.

The indictment, filed March 27 in Ohio’s Greene County Common Pleas Court, charges John Kent Tarwater with two counts of rape, three counts of sexual battery and three counts of gross sexual imposition.

He was booked into Greene County jail in southwest Ohio, where he remained in custody as of Wednesday morning. No defense counsel was listed in public court records, and no hearing or trial dates were disclosed.

Police in Paris apprehended and briefly detained European Parliament Member Rima Hassan Thursday on suspicion of “apology for terrorism”—an allegation critics slammed as “judicial harassment” aimed at silencing her outspoken criticism of Israel’s genocidal war on Gaza and the French government’s support for it.

The Sorbonne-educated jurist was one of the leaders of the June 2025 Gaza Freedom Flotilla Madleen mission, along with climate campaigner Greta Thunberg and others. Hassan and others aboard the Madleen were intercepted by Israeli forces and arrested in international waters as they attempted to deliver food, children’s prosthetics, and other desperately needed supplies to Gaza’s besieged and starving people. Hassan said that she was beaten in Israeli custody.

While far-right and pro-Israel French lawmakers celebrated Hassan’s detention and called for her to be stripped of parliamentary immunity, Palestine defenders condemned the arrest.

On March 28, 2026, marches and rallies took place in about 3,300 cities, towns, and villages across the United States. It was the third national “No Kings” mobilization. Organizers estimate that more than 8 million turned out, a significant increase over the estimated 7 million that participated in the October 2025 No Kings actions.

The network Indivisible was prominent among the organizers, but hundreds of other groups — both national and local — helped build the events. These included a number of local and national labor organizations.

The recent mobilizations marked an historic overall turnout of protesters in the United States as well as an unprecedented number of individual actions. Among the largest were in the Twin Cities of Minneapolis and St. Paul, Minnesota (as many as 200,000); New York City (where organizers reported more than 350,000 in attendance); Chicago, Boston, and Washington, D.C. (about 100,000 each); Seattle (90,000); and Los Angeles and San Francisco (50,000 each).

Digital atomic wall clock showing the time of 7:04 PM, an outside temperature of 158°F, and humidity of 99% outdoors.





edit:
A replacement sensor is just over $20, but I found this (see below) for $15, so both my wall clock and the new one can read off the same new, full functional sensor. So now it’s fixed.

It’s weird that the new one does outdoor and indoor temp, but not humidity. The old one does outdoor temp and humidity, but not indoor temp. And the new one isn’t an atomic clock. I had to set it manually.

Sharts and puking excluded from this question, I mean warm gaseous emissions only, do we gain or lose weight?

And call it Dang-ism

Yes, I'm aware there are "no stupid questions..." but... A quick search didn't bring much clarity.

For context: my wife and I are in our 30s, and as weather got colder in October, we started attending a "coffee and chat" meeting for people learning sign language. My wife is slowly going deaf, and we both would like to communicate normally when she loses hearing completely.

The asl chats were started by some people in an LGBT Pride group, and as such most of the people there are LGBT, and between 18-24. Since the weather is getting warmer, we have been inviting them to go places with us, mostly like IHOP or a local cafe. It is a little tricky to coordinate, since several lack vehicles and transit is basically nonexistent here, and some have mobility issues, but we make sure everyone who wants to come has a way to get here even if it requires several trips in our car.

Last week since it was especially nice out, we decided to have a cookout. We brought vegetarian options since a couple are vegetarian (while I'm sure I am quite competent at making vegetarian meals, I always get super dumb when trying to think of vegetarian dishes I know) and all in all it was pretty chill, with about 8 of them showing up. some had to leave soon after eating, but most stayed to hang out in the park and hammock with our extra ones we have collected over the years.

As we are making sure everyone is situated, has drinks and snacks, and making conversation with different people, a few are having their own conversation and then one looks in our direction, and goes "you two are giving off big crunchy aunt and uncle vibes, very granola" and I just looked a little confused and said "thanks? I think?"

Their tone was friendly, I'd say. Two people said things in agreement, one laughed, nobody seemed upset about anything.

We started setting up around noon, people showed up around 1, and we ended up staying until sunset after 8. Everyone said they had fun and it was super relaxing.

So to the question: in this context, I feel it's meant positively but I am not sure what "crunchy aunt and uncle vibes, very granola" means...

Apologies if this is considered something I should just look up since it really is a "simple question" but it feels like one of those things that has different meanings in different contexts.

I'm thinking about getting started using Docker and an older Raspberry Pi. I'm already hosting a grafana service on it, so It can't be fully dedicated to ha. So curious what everyone is using.
