Being the “low cost Mac” is very different from being the cheapest option.

Though I’ll say that my one Mac purchase in the early 00’s was a few years after they switched to OSX and I bought a Macbook Pro for probably 60%+ more than the equivalent PC but it lasted me over 2X as long as any PC ever had prior. Plus the free OS upgrades that were unheard of on Windows machines at the time.

Just rip that specific section of peel all the way off and throw away. You’re still composting 2/3 to 3/4 of the peel and not eating any more time than necessary.

One more method checked off the list!

I use Mullvad and game. Split tunneling lets you bypass the VPN to game. Port forwarding is useful for torrenting. Probably a few other things too.

You need to touch some grass buddy. Stop watching shit on your fridge and go outside.

My phone had all of that, and I can place it in a convenient location to watch while I cook. My fridge is beside or behind me as I cook.

A Swiss Cake Roll

Same! Even converted a couple of Surface tablets over as well. Id like to try Pop Linux on one of them just to see, but can’t get em to boot from USB.

Emily if I had been a girl, and that wouldn’t have been so bad.

Had I been twin boys though… Tharan and Thurlow. WTF??

Thanks, I’ll give this a try!

So the tricorder in Star Trek was just a fancy, battery powered wifi hotspot??

Is there a straightforward way to do this on Linux?

4 people with 5k each can get almost 20% down on a 350k propery

Do you think that 20% of $350k is about $20,000? I feel like I’m missing something important here .

Would you support an individualized pricing system if it meant that disadvantaged individuals could afford a better quality of life that is subsidized by charging wealthy people more?

You’re not from around here, are you, pardner?

??? Nothing about what I said was a dichotomy of any kind. Where did I exclude the possibility to create something else?

All I did was use this situation to illustrate why crypto has value today.

This is why some of us love crypto currencies so much despite the hate it gets from so many who claim there is no intrinsic value, it’s a scam, etc.

Stay away from shit coins, no doubt, but the intrinsic value is that you can side step all of the bullshit and spend your money as you choose. No need to get permission first. It’s looking to be a much better path forward, and payment processors inserting their own rules will only drive more acceptance of alternative payment methods.

An unregulated “nutritional” supplement. If it puts you on dialysis for the rest of your life - arbitration only and the best they can offer is a 25% discount on your next purchase. Limit 2.

If the lobbyists have money to pay bribes, then they have money to pay taxes. It doesn’t seem like a stretch for the government to get that money without all of the coercion.

The crazy thing (to me) is that governments can still get all of those billions without the undue influence. Instead of bribes, they can charge fines, taxes, fees for regulatory inspections, etc. When you write the law, you don’t have to just shrug when things are obviously broken.

To my enemies

Those were the best days of our lives

When our hate made us feel alive
