Unfortunately, the article doesn't really compare to other collectors. My wife's bookshelves are full of a much higher cost library than my Steam library could ever hope to achieve, and many of them are still on her "TBR" list. She'll also never read those physical copies, so she's buying them twice so she can read them on her Kindle or listen on Audible.
The only 7-seater available in 2018 was the Model X. Yes, it was clear he was an asshole as far back as 2018, but he was still a huge proponent of mitigating climate change (in hindsight it was clearly a grift for him), so at the time I thought it was a net positive. I used up a lot of my savings to afford it, so it would be difficult for me to switch to anything that isn't a gas car.
I switched to EVs in 2014, and went fully electric in 2018. My problem is that there still isn't a good alternative I can use for long distance trips for my family of 7. I'd love to switch to something like the Kia EV9, but I almost have my current car paid off, and can't afford another $80k car. I'm conflicted, because I don't want to switch back to a gas car, and I believe my current power company is on track to be 50% sustainable/renewable in 5-10 years. I feel like it could take me years as opposed to months to find a replacement EV that works for me.
You are mistaking a "concerted effort" with a general consensus that free VPNs are not a great idea. "If a service is free, you are not the customer, you are the product" is a pretty good rule of thumb. Your downvotes aren't necessarily a conspiracy here.
And, just like in chess, that boss happens to be skill-based, and no amount of over-preparation can help me win. And then I see a YouTube video of someone defeating Melania with a fucking stick and no armor. 😭
Yes, but some constitutional literalists tend to be quite ... literal.
"The authors of the 22nd amendment clearly knew the difference between holding office and being elected to office, because the text of the amendment distinguishes between the two, yet still chose to explicitly only bar from election."
Since the 22nd amendment only explicitly bars you from being elected, it could be argued that you still meet the eligibility requirements laid out in Article II; that is, you're only explicitly barred from being elected, not from holding office.
Okay, loophole time: what if he runs as VP in 2028, and after inauguration, the newly elected president resigns? He wouldn't technically have been elected, and the amendment doesn't mention being barred from actually serving more than twice.
I prefer the way Slack groups threaded conversations within a channel. Teams channels are clunky enough that we just end up using group chats instead.
