Give the government $30 to stop violating your civil liberties

Aside from having digital post for public services and official mail from things like financial institutions, nobody’s stopping you from putting paper into a parcel envelope or using DAO who is taking over letter delivery.

Stupid sexy Landers

They couldn’t get solid olive drab with fantastic red arm flair

It can literally be done by a single person. All it does is count the number of countries with visa free or visa on arrival.

But makes no stipulations to the quality of the country. Visa free access to UK, Canada, EU, Japan, China etc is not the same as visa free access to Syria, Sudan or the likes

The thing is it can be quite profitable for the biggest possible VC firm out there. The government.

The Interstate System spurned so much economic growth and thereby new tax revenue. Weve just pissed it away on stupid shit and have failed to maintain critical bridges and things like that.

And then everyone clapped

From a purely economics standpoint, when scalpers are able to sell at a higher price, yes they are underpriced.

But doing so limits access to cultural events to only those that can afford them.

Yeah front crawl is not the most energy intense. Do Butterfly and report back.

Depends how much equity they give their employees

This will lead to the majority of the state getting full say and suppressing minority views. This can be political, racial, etc.

California has a large Republican population. If it goes state wide they get zero voice as the full state will go blue.

These days I’m kinda fine with that, but in principle this is wrong. The same suppression logic can be spread to ethnic groups, etc.

One of the main complications in the US is the racial mix. Looking at party lines and geographic boundaries is an over simplification

Say 20% of the population is black, and the state has five reps. Two neighboring cities each have 30% black population, and enough population to have two of the five reps. The rest are dispersed in rural areas. Do you draw that each city gets one rep? Or do you draw such that a district has a majority of black residents, with funny boundaries to accommodate the geography?

The former means that you will more likely end up with a white representative for both cities and the voice of the black community are not heard in the legislative body. The latter means that you have now gerrymandered to ensure a group gets a voice they deserve.

This is the real pain in the ass about the whole thing. Some level of drawing stupid districts is needed to create good. Pure geographically created boundaries will only cause segregation if we want minority groups to have an equal voice in the legislature.

But, people in power tend to fuck everything up.

Zookeenee 🤌🏻

Yes it is. ETRTO size

I especially like that they claim electronics burst into flames if they’re not grounded, because the electrons have nowhere to go.

Which, let’s ignore the complete misunderstanding of how electricity works for a moment, but if they truly believe the ground pin does something functionally, how do they ignore all the shit that only has a two prong plug?

The right to gleefully split infinitives.

Especially also when you’re using them to be facetious.

He’s “talented”.

He’s “talented.”

I only have option 2, and would like option 1. But I can still open varying amounts, depending if it’s extra windy or not. The slide bar had adjustable tension.

It’s a smoker, with a port for a temp probe in the meat.

When you smoke something for 10-12 hours it’s nice to get temp readings from wherever. It might also have automatic control for temperature management.

How would you classify this? I know it to be fake, but its created to make a point. But its good enough that someone could be fooled intl believing it was real, no?
