I'm not sure exactly where these are and Google Maps doesn't have an easy way to search by exit numbers. If you know, tell us.

  • Interstate 20 from exit 443 to exit 449
  • Interstate 820 from exit 33C to 33A

Also this is the first time I've realized 820 is an interstate.

It's rough here in Fort Worth for the next 10 days. The highs range from 102 to 109 with nighttime temps falling into the upper 70's after another week.

 

There's a "passport fair" at the Downtown Fort Worth Post Office on Lancaster on Sunday August 6th. These fairs are described as "passport acceptance facilities such as post offices, libraries, and local government offices are hosting special passport acceptance fairs across the United States to help you and your family apply for your passport." More about them at https://travel.state.gov/content/travel/en/News/passports/special-passport-acceptance-fairs.html.

This one doesn't require an appointment, but I'd still get there early. It doesn't make your passport free ($165 altogether) but does make obtaining one easier since there will be people to assist and walk you through it.

Hint. Try to park free at the Trinity Railway Express (TRE) parking lot. Technically you need to ride the railway to park there for free but if you act like you belong no one will notice. If that doesn't suit you, just park along the street near the station parking lot and use the tunnel to walk through the station and to the post office.

 

Try making your baked beans "Mexican style." Try using peppers, cumin, chili powder, paprika, and garlic powder in various combinations.

VIP Beans (www.usatoday.com)
 

I guess all (most?) beans are good for you, but this post specifically calls out a few as being more healthy. The link has much more info and some recipes as well.

  • Soybeans
  • Lentils
  • Black
  • Navy
  • Adzuki

I've never had or heard of Adzuki. I'm probably missing out.

 

This post isn't really about the beer but about The Fort's past. Does anyone remember? This place used to be over on Magnolia. Before the current (Fort) owners bought the place, it was Chimera. And before then, Zio Carlo. The old place is now a liquor store on the corner of Magnolia and College.

 

A big reason for rinsing your canned beans is to remove a lot of the salt content. But there are a few good reasons for not rinsing such as maintaining vitamin and mineral content and using the bean juice as a thickener for other dishes

 

Demolished ASAP. As I predicted, no date set and one day it'd just go poof before any more uproar.

 

Saving it will cost too much even with grants and donations, so it will be razed. Date to be determined. And usually the date isn't announced to prevent more uproar. One day it'll simply be no more.

 

Today on this day, July 19, 1876, the first train entered Fort Worth. The small town could not wait for this to happen while rails were laid as fast as possible and a makeshift trestle was built over Sycamore Creek which today runs roughly between Beach St and Riverside Dr.

The arrival of the first train was a major event for Fort Worth. It marked the beginning of a new era for the city, and it helped to transform Fort Worth from a small frontier town into a major transportation hub.

In 1876, trains were seen as a symbol of progress and opportunity. They were a way to connect Fort Worth to the rest of the country, and they opened up new possibilities for trade and commerce. The railroad also played a major role in the development of the cattle industry, which was one of the city's most important economic sectors.

Fast forward to 2023, and the way that people view trains has changed dramatically. Today, trains are often seen as a nuisance and an obstacle to development. They can be noisy and disruptive, and they can block traffic. In addition, the environmental impact of trains is a growing concern.

Despite these challenges, there are still many people who appreciate the role that railroads have played in the history of Fort Worth. Trains are a part of the city's DNA, and they continue to play an important role in the city's economy and transportation network.

Let's take a moment today to remember the arrival of the first train in Fort Worth. Let's appreciate the role that railroads have played in the city's history, and let's think about the future of railroads in Fort Worth. How can we use railroads to promote economic development and environmental sustainability?.

No, not for every meal or exclusively. Just having some beans every day. Here were some of the benefits I found in the article.

  • Keeps you from getting hungry between meals
  • Considerably increases your protein intake
  • Regulate blood sugar
  • Help with digestion
  • Saves $$$ on the grocery bill

  • Hello World
  • Read a file
  • Write a file
  • Read a file and loop through it line by line, printing each one (for loop or equivalent)
  • Program that consists of 2 or more source files

What I'm getting at is instead of a full program, write code snippets and small programs. In doing this eventually an idea for something larger will pop into your head.

Same (Fira Code). And use it for my terminals as well.

Slackware. Fall of '93. Well over 20, 3.5" diskettes. Sacrificed my OS/2 machine to do this.

This isn't true in the least. Purchase a tool and look through the manual. Every section marked "danger", "warning", or "caution" was put in there because someone sued some company because the user or some bystander was hurt or injured.

I am not a lawyer and the implications are larger than this.

Do not post, share, trade, or otherwise make public any ChatGPT output from your sessions until you fact verify that data to the extent that you're willing to take legal responsibility for it. In this case, especially causing a lawsuit against OpenAI. Because when that happens, you will foot the bill.

You've been scrot'ed!

And now that it's an issue, it's the time to take care of it and add the rule (and any others there might be) to the sidebar.

BTW. It was my first post on Lemmy and I immediately got called out for some unwritten rule. It was a less than ideal experience.

I see. This is something that should be in the sidebar. I bet it'd make your mod life much easier.
