Give him a break, he can’t remember if he told us before

To add to that- it’s nearly impossible to lose American citizenship against one’s will. If you were born a citizen or earned it later, you will likely remain a citizen until you die, unless you give it up.

Even Jefferson Davis died an American citizen.

I ain’t seen you round here, stranger…

Ditto. Respect for anyone who not only knows two languages well enough to explain one in the other, but is willing to share that knowledge.

I'm more curious where these people all get RC Cola, I haven't seen that stuff since the 90s...

I'll agree on the wine front, but I also don't care for wine much. Never developed a palate for it.

But liquor, very much disagree. If you're one to enjoy a scotch on the rocks or something, there's a huge difference in taste once you splurge and get the good $100+/bottle stuff. And the cheap liquor always gives me a bad hangover.

Essex is to the UK what New Jersey is to the US.

off topic but that's probably the best line in all 8 movies

he probably hasn't tried bc he thinks it's in German

that's the part that irks me the most about modern American politics.

30% of the current House and 51% of current Senators have law degrees. these are supposed "experts"; you'd think they would be able to write better laws...

bold of you to assume we were properly educated about the real world at any time in our American upbringings

I'm begging the question here but it's an important point that the article is trying (not very well) to make...

Why does healthcare in the US cost 50% more than Europe, on average per person?

We take the same drugs, right? We have the same surgeries with the same equipment?

And that's the cost we paid this year, without even providing coverage for the whole population.

one reason the costs are lower in Europe is bc govts over there put strict limits on how much providers can charge for services and prescriptions, which is something the US refuses to do. Healthcare costs in the US are made up by pharma companies depending on how much they think they can get away with.

I just changed mine to porqueFi, I thought it was clever...

I just looked this brand and model up and don't see it yet, and I don't see it on the side of the housing, so I'm gonna guess this doesn't have a UL listing. That's usually a good starting point to see if it's reputable.

So, if I used SolidWorks or AutoCAD more, it would be a different story. I do most of my work in Revit which is OK on using RAM. And I wish I could save desktops, that'd be cool.

What's Depot?

I work as an engineer and I use it like a desktop for each project. Works very well when you need to work on more than one project at a time - all the programs, files, folders, browser tabs for one project are on one screen exactly where I left them, and exactly in the layout where I left off.

I also keep the first desktop as a HOME screen, where I have email, Teams, Zoom, and my timesheet program. If I need to talk to someone about a project while I work on it, I just pop that chat out into a new window and move it to the respective desktop.

The only limitation is that if you open something (like an Excel file) through Windows Explorer on desktop 1, but you have an instance of the program already running on desktop 3, it will jump around the desktops and open on the one where it's already open. I have no idea why, not all programs do that, but it's easy to move it to the correct place.

Also it's even more hand if you learn the keyboard shortcuts.
