It says nothing about removing pennies from circulation. They're just going to stop making new ones.

I'm down for this 'change' :D

Another pointless article.

  • Polls are crap. Who answers those calls? The same damn people over and over.
  • The results are " strong feelings" or " nearly 50%" !?!?

I usually ignore motherj articles anyway.... Guess I can keep doing that

It is what it is at this point, and as usual, Democrats will completely mis-read the room and rant about shit that won't win them the midterms. The best we can hope for is TheIdiot falling flat on his face.

Literally, from the article:

It was also not immediately known how many of the fired prosecutors intended to challenge the terminations by arguing that the department had cast aside civil service protections afforded to federal employees

That tells me federal employees have different rules and they may have a path to make things uncomfortable for a while. Whether that's worth the effort is up to them.

If this implies success in that field, I would choose financial investing.

Using a bit of those funds, I could go learn and become an expert in many fields and enjoy each one. If your not learnin' you're dyin'

GrapheneOS on a Pixel 9 Pro. It's nice to have better control over what data is leaving my device. Updates / patches from upstream AOSP are usually offered in GOS in the same timeframe it takes to hit regular Pixels.

Thank you Michael. Hopefully you're only writing checks for 4 years.

I disagree with your premise that this is all evil corp. The fact is that demand drives housing. Someone is going to buy and build on that property. Full stop.

I am not aware of any fire proofing techniques for homes in a situation like this. References please.

As mentioned above, we've had nearly 100 years of fire suppression practices that kept fuel from burning. I'm not sure how else to mitigate the properties other than clearing all trees and bushes. I don't think it would help in this situation.

I agree that climate change is a problem and a contributing fsctor.

I've been running Chimera for about 8 months and love it. I'm very picky about package managers, and APK is up there with xbps (Void) in performance.

Almost everything I need I can run via flatpack. There are a few apps that I miss. They have a guide for porting them but I got lost last time I tried to get everything setup.

I thought about just running a container for those apps, but got lost in that setup too :). I'm waiting for some winter westher to hit so I have an excuse to stay inside and play with it.

Yeah. So you, myself, and some others are the exception to the rule. But, you can't look at it that way because its a 'lowest common denominator' problem. The least secure of us means we are all only as secure. Others need to be hand held.

It's definitely time to raise all boats and drop SMS 2fa like a hot rock.

Yep. I walk faster than anyone I know. I'm trying to be better about letting the other walker(s) lead so I can be in on whatever conversation they're having.

I hope Gen Z shows up. I don't buy into poll results.
