@perps AI Overview

Coal Workers' Pneumoconiosis) statistics show a resurgence, with high rates in Appalachia, affecting roughly 1 in 10 long-term miners, but numbers vary; recent data indicates about 11 cases per 100,000 U.S. residents and 4 deaths per 100,000, though severe "complicated black lung" cases are surging, particularly among younger miners, with one in five experienced miners in Central Appalachia affected, highlighting ongoing risks despite safety efforts.

This is pretty much how I remember it.



@Geri Hi, I'm not asking for a lot - all I need is to provide food and medicine for my mother. She has Type 1 diabetes and hasn't been able to get her medication for over 3 months, plus she requires eye surgery.
I lost my father in the war - can you imagine? I'm having to step into his role as a father figure by seeking donations? ‼️‼️
Please, don't ignore me; I truly need your help, Please help where possible. Donation link in bio🙏🍉🕊





hamishcampbell.com/stories/ These stories embed #OMN theory and practice as a utopian direction of travel, not a technical blueprint. They illustrate a path of doing social change, not a finished model of how it will actually unfold. The reality will always be messier than the stories. It has to be. Real people, real politics, real power, real failure – none of that fits neatly into narrative form.

Use these as tools alongside the hashtag story to invite people in, if they help people understand why we need #OMN paths – and feel able to take a first, imperfect step – then they’re doing a needed job #KISS

Yes, it takes a while for your cheek muscles to get strong enough! When you're tired, your embouchure is hopeless.



"Industries can be striked to bankruptcy. All industries depend on customers and prices. When losses are made, the workers lose their jobs. Hopefully, that is understood." -- Something actually said by a scab or a member of management (one of the two). Fine. So, if their business model depends on exploiting workers, and the rest of us won't buy their product as a result, they don't deserve to exist. #1u

ancient wisdom…
“It seems to me to be equally plain that no business which depends for existence on paying less than living wages to its workers has any right to continue in this country. By "business" I mean the whole of commerce as well as the whole of industry; by workers I mean all workers, the white collar class as well as the men in overalls; and by living wages I mean more than a bare subsistence level-I mean the wages of decent living.”
― Franklin D. Roosevelt

I have #HomeAssistant running on a Raspberry Pi. There seems to be no easy way to use the built-in headphone jack to play text-to-speech, or use it with #MusicAssistant or whatever.

All I can find is "use this third-party add-on".

Really? Am I missing something here?
