Reply to comment by IndividualStyle6258 in Transferring to MSU this fall. How do students connect with each other before school starts..? by IndividualStyle6258
I highly suggest the student organization route also to get together with people of similar interests. I found so many new friends that way.
When I was there a long time ago they would have a big event where the student organizations would come and set up booths. Great way to see what is available.

If you were trying the Springfield News-Leader you are likely to come up short. The Springfield Daily Citizen https://sgfcitizen.org/ is much better for this.

Prusaslicer (built off of superslicer) just added tree supports in their recent alpha version. I'm excited because that's the only thing Cura had going over it, IMO.

Getting worse now. Previously clear roads are getting covered. A bit slushy at the moment but expect that to turn into ice shortly.

Reply to Road conditions by slossages
Glenstone inside lanes are mostly clear, outside lanes are slightly sketch. Intersections are still a little rough. Be careful when changing lanes.
Side roads are mostly hard pack snow and ice.
For the most part it's safe to commute if you pay attention, keep it slow, and make smooth transitions.

Googling this, thought this was interesting, the bill Democrats tried to pass to do the same thing back in 2022 https://www.businessinsider.com/bill-text-nancy-pelosi-house-democrats-stock-trading-ban-2022-9
Actual text of current bill. Just like most contracts I don't feel like I understand this verbiage correctly enough without interpretation from someone that actually does this for a living. https://www.congress.gov/bill/117th-congress/house-bill/8990/text

Reply to Springfield needs to step up! Patriot Front is taking over and mocking our city. by Upper_Case_655
I don't understand how the phrase "rise up" counteracts patriot front propaganda. To me side by side they look like the same thing.
I disagree that we need to step up. I've seen a half dozen posts of people scraping off this Nazi shit the second they see it.

I drove from Sunshine to Chestnut on Kansas Expwy without seeing a single light on, including the traffic lights.
Earlier I almost ran into a large tree that was just laying across Chestnut in complete darkness.
Crazy times.

It has been working reliably for me outside of a day around the holidays when it was having issues network wide.
Some people including me had significant issues getting it installed. But now that I don't have to talk to them anymore I'm happy. The speeds are unmatched in Springfield.
Personally I consider dealing with Mediacom and AT&T far worse.

So weird how people think them paying for something I was planning on paying for is a favor to me.
Now there is pressure for me to pay for the person behind me, which could end up being more expensive than what I ordered.
How is that doing me a favor?
Just give the money to the service worker and leave me out of it.

I don't disagree with what you are saying.
My view is someone ahead of me paying for my items is hostile. I did not sign up for this weird chained pay it forward scheme that gives others a fuzzy feeling. I do not want to pay for the four drinks of the person behind me, I want to pay for what I ordered.
If you want to feel altruistic, give the service worker ten dollars and leave me out of it.

If any of ya'll ahead of me pay for my stuff I swear to the god I don't worship I will donate the money I would have paid to Josh Hawley.
(tip your service workers plz)

Reply to My car insurance has gone up by throwawayspfd
I use an insurance broker. They will requote me with a variety of different companies on request since they aren't tied to a single insurance company.
Mid-Missouri Insurance is the one I use, I'm sure there are others in Springfield. https://www.midmoinsurance.com/

I did not have as much pain as /u/MikeBuckets171 did. I felt moderate pressure instead of pain. Overall it wasn't that bad, I've had worse experiences getting cavities filled. I think the worst part of it is the mental aspect of another person carving on your nuts.
I did however go home and immediately look at my incision, get woozy, and fall through the shower door. I suggest sitting down if you want to take a look at the doctor's handiwork.

Apparently disinfectant wipes and hand sanitizer aren't effective against norovirus, only strong bleach solutions and hand washing.
I expect one of my coworkers will give it to me soon.
