Trump and 18 others charged in Georgia election inquiry in c/worldnews@lemmy.ml

Keep in mind the Republicans are evolving beyond Trump, and this New Right is a real threat.

Case in point, that story earlier this week about Republican thinks tanks funding anti-education, anti-trans, anti-race mixing efforts, which stokes their culture war in ways that have and will continue to provoke real people to act in violent and harmful ways.

    What are some of your favorite restaurants, bars, and venues in South/Central Austin? in c/austin@lemmy.world
    [–] 4 points 3 years ago

    I'll try to keep this short. I eat out too much.

    On the east side: kinda tropical, de nada and Sawyer are good laid back food spots. Justines is a great French spot with a setting you can't beat. Bufalina has excellent pizza and wine... Their pasta is delicious but portions don't justify the cost. Cenote is my go to breakfast spot. If you like divey spots, the Grackle, Violet Crown and the liberty are all great. I think East Side King still has a truck at Liberty too. Grackle just got Asador tacos... That mushroom taco is absurd.

    South Congress area: June's is a nice little wine bar. Joanne's and the Austin motel have good food and a fun pool.

    Near the lake (not sure what to call these areas): carpenters hall has a good menu and fun pool parties. Pecan Square is a great date night/celebration spot... don't sleep on the crab salad. Fresas is casual Mexican that's elevated without ruining the simple beauty of Mexican cuisine.

    I can keep going, but that's probably more than enough. Last suggestion I'll give, if you like live music if any kind, go to Sahara Lounge on a Saturday night. The house band is unbeatable.

    How do I keep my fence from settling so much? (waveform.social)
     

    I'm in Austin Texas. We installed a fence three years ago and the posts between the gate door have shifted about four inches. This makes closing the door a pain in the ass, as the latch quickly becomes misaligned. A few times a year I move the latch bracket down to align it with the other part of the latch. My fence post is full of holes, and along with the constant slamming necessary when it gets out of line, it has started splitting.

    How do I end this cycle? How do I keep it from moving so much?

    What are the cybersecurity weaknesses of the Fediverse? (waveform.social)
     

    Most of us are Reddit refugees, and probably clicking more random links than we ever did before on websites we've never seen before. This whole experience feels like the old internet, but also throws up insane red flags with a modern internet perspective. What are the cybersecurity weaknesses we should all be looking for, and what are the best practices?

    Here's my reason for posting this. As I search for new communities across instances to follow, I sometimes end up clicking a link and I'm no longer logged in. In the corner, that could be a Sign In link or it could be phishing. It's likely due to me not understanding how to properly navigate this system, but there's nothing stopping someone from setting up a sight like this as far as I know.

    Thoughts?
