After driving several Chevy vehicles over the years, I’d never buy one myself. Would definitely not trust them to make a good EV.

Maybe what they are trying to say is that most everyday folks don’t use those terms in any normal conversation. I’ve never used those terms myself and haven’t heard them in any conversation I can recall outside of the Internet.

I think my mom still uses the last CRT TV that I had. Gave it to her when I bought my first 720p HD TV, as the old CRT was better than her old TV. Later on I also gave her that HD TV but she still has the CRT too.

Lots of far more intelligent and reputable officials are also talking about this, but Boebert gets news clicks because haha laugh at the dumb lady.

The report on the Immaculate Constellation government program that was released yesterday is very interesting.

Your first comment was right: no phone

So Teams calls of 1-4 people can send traffic direct peer-to-peer if they’re on the same LAN right?
Do all calls of 5+ users stay centrally hosted on the cloud? These are the kinds of things that MS should document and make easily available for IT and firewall admins. Finding info on Teams ports wasn’t easy in my experience.

One good thing is that the ratio of police to other civilians is quite low. They don’t have the numbers to oppress a large area.

So Illinoisians can purchase their own nazi-repellant machines now

Well couldn’t those prosecutors just go shoot the Fox news reporters calling for them to be killed? They all have gun rights too. They can stand their ground in self defense of death threats.

Fuck off. The majority of black Americans live in the south, and more than half of the northern states voted for trump too.

Nobody is going to change who they are and how they want to live because of Putin’s fat orange bitch.

They were all ancient ladies with curly grandma-fro hairdos at ours

I think people are taking issue with calling this act of normal voting “a TikTok trend” as if TikTok deserves the credit for inspiring the youngsters. It would be better if the news media used platform-agnostic terms with social media to avoid promoting their brands. “Young Americans use social media to organize voters” etc

Wow I’m really glad I had heard stories about that stuff in the past. I had to see specialists for back problems and they offered that drug, and I said no thanks, and physical therapy did the trick for me also. I feel like I end up turning down half the drugs the doctors offer me in recent years.

Recent polls are showing a different side of it apparently

https://thehill.com/homenews/lgbtq/4949915-gop-campaign-ads-trans-rights/

"Just more than 60 percent of surveyed voters, including a majority of independents and 41 percent of Republicans, said it is “sad and shameful” for GOP candidates to make anti-LGBTQ rhetoric a part of their campaigns, according to the poll, which was released Thursday. "

You are correct, and that guy doesn’t know he’s deaf I guess. All pistols are loud enough to hurt your ears if your ears are normal. Even a .22LR pistol with a 6" target barrel is pretty loud to the naked ear.

You have a really optimistic view of how the police would respond there. I’d wager that they would be more likely to be mad at you for bothering them with that complaint than actually do anything about it. In my experience, helpful cops are rare.

So many movies show people getting into gun battles indoors, and they will jump behind a couch or flip over a coffee table and take shelter from a hail of bullets, like that thin furniture is going to stop anything.

I see cash businesses all the time that can operate without power or Internet. Festival / market vendors, food trucks, etc. It’s not hard to count money, give change, write down a receipt if needed.

That would be no problem, unless your electricity is unreliable and you don’t have a UPS. I rarely use the power button on any of my PCs or Macs, except the one old PC that can’t do S3 sleep anymore (crashes on wake).

Are y’all not using sleep mode? Also the Apple M-cpus are extremely power efficient so leaving it on without sleep mode is a perfectly fine option too.
