That’s $15,000 not $15. The answer is schools are corrupt fronts for contractors who milk the district of every dollar. Construction, service, demolition, and reconstruction of buildings is expensive!

If you start such a community, I’ll subscribe. What topics would you want this community to address?

How much of the VPN market goes away after enforcing this law?

I’m teaching my 15 year old how to drive and we drive a manual transmission. She’s doing just a well as her three older siblings that learned on automatics.

Even with tests, don’t most universities have library computers or a computer lab that’ll suffice instead of using your personal Linux machine?

Just because nobody’s mentioned them yet and they are worth trying out: Solus & Void. Both are independent and rolling distributions.

I’m going to say they probably give marching orders to the dictators of multiple countries.

My lunch everyday is the same. 1/2 cup of quick oats mixed with hot water. Costs pennies and helped get me super fit!

I got a very early version of Debian from a friend when I was in college. I had a very old computer gifted to me but couldn’t get Windows to install. I ran that badboy with no window manager, just text. I used elinks for my web browser and pine for email. VI was where I wrote my papers. Drivers were a problem, so I had to save papers on a disk to print from a computer at a library.

I thought this was common knowledge. Here’s one about the US. If you look, you can easily find one about Canada or other countries.

Do Lemmy moderation tools work across instances? For example, if I were to “moderate” a community on a different instance, are the tools there to make this work? Or would I need to create a new profile on that other instance?

Are there any official or unofficial rules about starting a community? Do you have to get the support of your instance first or can you just start one? I can imagine someone wanting to start two or three different themed communities and the instance the user uses having different opinions about hosting one or the other: Being very happy about one but very opposed to another. And keeping an array of profiles on different instances just to avoid upsetting one instance or another wouldn’t be ideal.

Nobody else is commenting on it but we know for a fact that China’s government is operating illegal “police stations” inside the United States and Canada, to regulate the behavior of Chinese people inside our countries. Yes, there will be Chinese internment camps and these Chinese agents operating inside out countries will be the start of those camps. They will be real enemies among us. The question is just if our governments will stop at those real enemies or if it’ll expand beyond what’s just.

Lots of people paying for that mistake today.

It is even worse if you are at the withdraw stage of life (generally retirement) because liquidated shares cannot participate in any later market increase.

I’m a conservative but don’t have strong feelings about gun rights. Not every conservative is conservative for the same reason.

I agree, this is bad logic. That said, that’s not what I hear from the current regime when I hear them talking about tariffs. What I hear is them thinking this will force countries to lower barriers to Americans doing business abroad. Once those barriers are lowered, tariffs are reduced or go away altogether. For the record, I do not think this is good policy, but the intent of the policy (at lease as I read it) isn’t to suddenly move all manufacturing back to the United States.
