Honestly we need to get rid of the $1 bill generally but that’s a completely different post all together.

What do you replace them with? Coins have been tried and rejected by consumers a few times now.

I carry around PowerPoint presentations that contain huge loops of satellite data. I love my 1TB USB stick.

Not enough capslock

The problem is that Republicans are being told that there is proof. That the fraud is rampant and everyone knows it. It’s just that “they” keep removing and hiding the information.

My mom seriously believes that there is mountains of proof and that she has seen it in the past, but can’t find it anymore because it has been deleted from the internet.

And the statewide margin was still a 14 point margin. Too much to overcome with 12 stolen ballots.

You’re probably right but I don’t really get it. Mesa County is so red that Trump won by 28 points in 2020. What was this person trying to achieve? For that matter, what was Tina Peters was trying to achieve? I just don’t understand how either of them could have made a difference when, in 2020, Trump won by over 25K votes out of a total of 91K votes cast and 107K registered voters.

Hey, did you know that 100% fascist is more fascist than 0% fascist?

Please stop twisting words just to be annoying.

Yeah, that’s what I said.

I generally agree with you, but it does make her eat some of her own words as pointed out elsewhere in this comment section:

I think it’s fairly obvious who the more fascist candidate is here. I think it says something that Trump is too fascist for Cheney.

Also, shoving Stein’s words in her face doesn’t mean OP agrees with those words, just that Stein’s words are particularly problematic at the moment.

Can you recommend some models to try?

It’s pretty amazing to me that a company hasanagednto become so reviled that Walmart is the better and more ethical option.

Whether they have wifi on ship or not isn’t the issue. Sometimes, when a ship goes into an operation, they will turn off all signals except passive or directed signals so that they can’t easily be detected. Having a communications signal that isn’t under the control of the ship’s officers is a huge security risk during operations.

Someone is going to be court martialed over this.

Video tape isn’t really that durable over time. Most of the info I can find comes from digitization services, but they are fairly consistent in saying that, for tapes that are stored in “normal” conditions, you can expect 10-25% degradation in 20 years. These tapes are 40 years old. They have likely degraded significantly already and may fall apart when played.

There are places a skinny naked person can hide things. What do we do about that?

I don’t think they really query one another. Maybe they do though?

I wonder how undergrads would do on the same exams given unlimited time and internet access but with LLMs blocked. That’s essentially what the LLMs have.

As someone who contributes to FOSS projects, I think you put too much trust in the ability of the community to police such things. There simply aren’t enough people reviewing project code to ensure it’s safety and compliance if a maintainer or team decide to follow bad local laws or act explicitly in a malicious way. Some things get caught but I’m sure there are things thst slip through.

Even without access to Direct File since I wasn’t in a pilot state, I’ve been using the IRS’ “Free Fillable Forms” for the last few years and they’ve worked great! They don’t hold your hand as much as the paid software but for my returns they’ve been more than adequate and free!

Does anyone know how “Direct File” differs from the “Free Fillable Forms”? Does it hold your hand a little more and help you find credits/deductions? Free Fillable Forms worked well, but only so long as I knew what I needed to file. New circumstances, like adding a dependent, lead to a lot of research.

I don’t agree with these religious nuts but, in this case, I don’t think they’re completely off base regarding “God given rights”. The Declaration of Independence (not the Constitution) says:

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.

I wish the Declaration didn’t include “by their Creator” but it does.
