He missed the part where challenging the powers that be is the most American thing you can do. He's butthurt that someone would dare, I said dare say something bad about him

I am Conan the Barbarian's God

Universal media server works for me. I run it headless on a small instance. Streams my movies and music just fine.

Afaik, your state Id or driver license is your legal identification. And states honor the IDs of other states.

I refused to use id.me to get unemployment insurance because I don't want a private 3rd party having that info plus a face scan.

It's not an autobus, it's la guagua

It's not un banana, it's un gineo

It's not automovil, it's El carro

I can keep going.

Dominican here so my Spanish includes...

Yes.

Trumps tariffs hit Canadian lumber.

This causes fake crisis in lumber prices.

Trump leases land to us lumber companies who now sell lumber.... Remember it's more expensive than what Canadian lumber costs, but Trump handled that with tariffs.... Now us lumber is artificially cheaper than Canadian.

= Trumps rich friends profit while Americans pay more for lumber and lose national parks

It's a horde survival shooter with upgrades

He considered it an "Official Act", thus he gets immunity

Isn't this how RoboCop starts.

Anyone on here who shouts for civil war or revolution has never watched 2 dozen Apache helicopters approaching them ready to go. Normal, untrained, unequipped citizens stand no chance. It's either going to be a bloody resistance, think northern Ireland, or guerilla war, think Vietnam.

Or, any coup against the US gov would need to get the military aligned against current structures.... That also leads to a military controlled gov.....think burma.

No of these are good options unless you are facing extreme circumstances with no other hope

Yep.... And of course the guns you get to keep are water guns compared to the firepower the gov and military get to own. Your desert eagle hangun vs the Apache helicopter with huge canons and guns and missiles ....

Never go to the magic kingdom. Went last year..... The crowds were crazy, you MUST sign up and use their fast pass phone app to get on any rides if you're lucky..... Waiting in line without it takes 2 hours per ride. I got on 4 rides because of this, and was outright denied from getting on popular rides....fast pass app users only. And there are only so many fast pass slots..... People literally walked around hitting refreshing their phone all day hoping for a slot to open

It sucked, don't come here

Somehow autocorrect made it funnier too

So property tax I am ok with, in theory. The people with property in a city should pay for services like fire, schools, police, road maintenance..... What gets me is when the city wants more and more for stupid shit like iPads for all students.... Every 3 years due to forced upgrades or just old style deprecation over 3 years.

The amount my taxes go up each year is more than any raise I get. Then add on insurance which has gone insane. I paid off my house to avoid a 20k female flood insurance bill because a 1 foot piece of concrete touched a high risk flood zone. A technicality because if I took down a screen patio, then I wouldn't have to pay.

It's insane how expensive owning a house has become

Welcome to Lemmy. All I can say. 1 more convert has come into the fold.

"In some parts of the city, you can't even park your car anymore without downloading an app."

Omg, this. I left my phone at home by accident and quickly found out that I could not pay a meter on the area I went to .... You had to download an app to pay or use you phone to register a phone number and manually enter a plate and credit card.

No phone.....meant no parking.

Good luck too if your phone happens to run out of battery.

Same result for me. I'm sure I can buy thimbstick caps or something to cover them.

GOP really hated deficit spending when Democrats where in control.... Absolute hypocrisy from them when they want to deficit spending for something that doesn't even benefit most Americans.

Bah, you should see how many gov systems aren't even FedRamp certified. It's crazy how far behind the USA is on basic hardening of systems.
