The 2A solution is when there's no hope of peace. You really don't want them to remove the last option.

The 1st is so people can talk and work through differences. When he only thing left is to use the 2nd, nothing will put the Republic back together the same way.

If Congress, Supreme Court, or the Executive find a way to close the 2nd Amendment down. Then there's no way for the people to fight against complete Tyranny when the time comes.

Home-grown insurgencies nearly always win. The US has never been able to win against them, just like Israel can't win against Palestine. Insurgencies can only be negotiated with and always stop once freedom or rights are acknowledged.

Damn straight. That's the same thing I tell people when I was asked if I was going to try to leave the US.

I may be disabled, but I swore to defend the Constitution from foreign and domestic threats. It's not just the racist and homophobic people who have firearms. When the time comes, the quiet people will show up to help.

They're underfunded mainly because Congress would rather spend money through SpaceX instead of NADA, because they can make money from SpaceX and other private goons. NASA benefits all Americans, which is just Communism...

Bedbugs in executive offices is best. Make them feel the pain.

I moved to Linux Mint after a brief stint with Manjaro. I don't prefer the Cinnamon interface, but gaming has been perfect. Bottles, allows me to install GOG Galaxy and the games run. I even modded Skyrim using a manual process and a ton of animation mods, that worked alright a lot of times with Vortex ( for the most part).

Linux can handle NTFS partitions, and just take a small line to fix if they are open during a crash. Flatpak software is really stable to install and keep installed.

I haven't yet had a problem with steam games.

The only problem I have is with streaming services forcing Windows usage, so I got a VPN and raised the Jolly Roger to watch streaming services.

My 3080 plays games fine, and the few times it got a little slow I rebooted and it all worked fine. Discord calls and Twitch work fine. I even take my VA Online appointments with no issues.

It's closer to going back to Windows 7 or XP, with a decent free office software.

You cannot assume that all the people unable to evacuate were obstinate religiously minded conservatives. Very few people have the means to leave their residence when the time comes.

Not everyone owns a vehicle. Not everyone can walk their way out of the path of a storm. What about all the people left in nursing homes. Katrina saw a lot of people forced to stay. Unless there are no homeless people in that section of Florida, I'm ptlretty sure there a lot more forced to stay than those who choose to stay.

Letting everyone die isn't a good way to get people to learn and change their minds.

Guess you all are fine with having everything decided by a few states. I for one am not willing to end up with rle by the Mob.

Without the E.C., no presidential candidate will go to any Midwest state, southeast or the southwest. Politics will not matter in DC for any state past the coasts.

The system we have was designed so that instead of one group taking over we have to find common ground. Checks and Balances are important for keeping it in the middle ground. Just because it may help in one way, doesn't mean it can be used against the Democrats in the future.

I'm as far left as they come, but I don't think gutting the system for short term gains will help. We should increase the House due to thensize, but I think we should go back to a senate chosen by the state and not having senate elections. It has so far turned the senate into another popularity body instead of people being able to pass laws without regard of electioneering.

Just a swallow or sip of sucralose I fused drinks can send my to bed in a dark room due to migraines.

That drink may kill me.

Saying it's God's judgment is bad when it destroys the places attacking abortions, trans rights, and gays.

They don't want to admit that God may be against them.

The classification problem will lead to the DEA gaining control of all the dispensaries in every state.

Maybe I'm being alarmist, but rescheduling Marijuana is worse than leaving things alone. Oversight by the DEA is the wrong way to go.

One of the best ways to get through withdrawal symptoms is Marijuana. When I was getting off some pretty rough mental meds, Marijuana allowed me to keep going.

They just want climate scientists to br like the tobacco studies scientists.

Your comment reminded me of the movie "Thank You for Smoking "

So basically quit wanting to get paid for extra work. Also: Stop having something besides your job to live for.

Same here I've just started pirating more.

A lot more than that ignore the meta ecosystem.

The same reason we're here instead of on Reddit.

Especially a big problem for people who play on Steam Deck. Which most game companies don't consider it a Console, which is stupid.

I just wish they would ban the plastic bags and force paper bags. The thick plastic bag problem came from not mandating paper only. Plus a lot of those polyester bags were so poorly made, they didn't last long enough to male a difference.

Maybe it's just me wanting to go back to the stores of my youth when plastic was a rarity.

Young adult women who post thirst traps are looking to be looked at. Especially if they aren't on a private profile.

It's normal for men of all ages to look at women who consent with open permissions.

Google paying Mozilla for search placement is the same as Google paying Samsung and Apple for search priority on their phones.

It doesn't mean that Google is backing Mozilla, Apple, and Samsung.

Mozilla has to take a much smaller cut compared to Apple because of their size, nothing else.

I hear you. I was looking more for Arch with less of a hassle. Something similar to my Steamdeck. I guess I should just wipe this weekend for something else. I really want something for playing my steam and GOG games that works with my Nvidia 3080.

Luckily for me I keep every game installed on different Steam Libraries so wiping my install drive to put something else in isn't difficult.
