Gamespy back in the day. Could make core friends and join the same servers across games.

Absolutely. I always found it satisfying to route wires and avoid the rat's nest.

Adders are the foundation of electronics. Are you going to continue on this project or start a new one? 7-segment display?

Nice wiring. Great job!

Very superior design. I can now go back to using muscle memory and know what is going to happen without having to navigate a series of menus.

Just to clarify, Puerto Ricans are US Citizens and can vote for President if they are residents of any of the 50 States. It's only Puerto Ricans living in Puerto Rico (or other citizens living there) who cannot vote for President because the Constitution only grants this right to US States not federal territories.

2021 Census data captured 5.8 million Puerto Ricans living in a Presidential voting area but only time will tell if this made an impact.

It's not too difficult to establish a Signal account from a burner number from a prepaid sim card. I currently have a Signal account tied to a sim not in my name. Getting a burner with cash is an option. Or, if you're lucky enough to live near a payphone and can gain access to the number, you can activate a signal with a phone call.

He's crouched with his legs between his arms. He's holding the scissors in his hand which is next to his foot.

I think the intent is baby steps for those who aren't already privacy invested. Getting parents or tech illiterate to switch to Signal is a win. They weren't hiding their number anyway.

So easy to setup my tech illiterate parents could do it.

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm looking like 73% compatibility with the deck, so I'd assume slightly higher for the computer. I mostly play single player anyways so I'm probably overall looking good.

Thank you for this inspiration. I've also been things about a switch to Mint but the only thing holding me back is my Steam library. I'm going to dig into it a little more and look at the compatibility of my games. It's encouraging to hear others making the leap.

I don't recall what kind of car it was, but there was one that saved the phone number associated with any phone that connected via Bluetooth.

While I don't think it's likely as a way to trick people to connecting to get their phone number, it was a rental car which opened them up to impersonation scams. Knowing they just rented from the company and where in the city provides quite a bit of information on you.

Got it once. I left it suspended to capture the luck.

The last line on the typewriter has a typo that says "X-MEN IS WORK NOW" instead of "WOKE NOW".

Probably comes from a combination of belief in American exceptionalism, tradition, and either popular opinion remains with reciting the pledge or a lack desire to change.

States are managed individually for the most part and only 47/50 still require reciting the pledge (with some exceptions). Without a call for change from the people, it would be political suicide for any lawmaker to come out for a change like this. Opponents could use this decision as a claim of lack of patriotism.

The context of the origin of the US' pledge of allegiance is it came shortly after the end of their Civil War when there was still a lot o political tension. A desire was born to instill national loyalty in children.

"Historians point to surges in American patriotic oaths and pledges to the flag after the Civil War, when tensions surrounding political loyalties persisted, and in the 1880s, as rates of immigration increased dramatically"

However, today as mentioned by another commenter, students cannot be legally compelled to recite the pledge, nor punished for not reciting the pledge as decided by the Supreme Court in 1943 using the first amendment as the base.

Voting for Trump is voting for a system that enables Project 2025.

Everyone focuses on the man, however, it's also a vote for his appointees and staffers.

That's just a white dude with a tan.
