As a resident of "this part wouldn't be that tough", i disagree. The entire Cascade range extending from the top of the central valley to the top of Washington, extending out to the ocean, is very very rough, steep, heavily forested terrain that would be absolute hell to get any kind of equipment through if the locals were to blow up a grand total of three bridges on three separate highways.
Very easy to tell whether they will get killed during the raid, simply follow the Standard Police Academy Appropriate Force chart:

The only media they consume anymore will never blame Trump, thry will still somehow spin it to be liberals, communists, immigrants, or anything else. Never Trump. So they will literally never make the connection and will live in a continued flood of hate.
Nope. LLV's are exclusively scrapped by the USPS at end of life. I tend to think thats mostly to retain their image as a USPS only vehicle and prevent potential impersonation for crime, which is the same reason UPS has a "always scrap" policy as well.
There are a very few select examples that have been sold private party by not-the-usps, and do exist out there but there will be no great flood of EOL mail trucks. Most of them are so incredibly beat at this point that they barely work anyway.
That's why I called it a price floor accounting for solely the change in imported crude oil. Multiple inputs for gasoline (equipment, naptha, various hydrocarbon mixers, etc) also are imported and exported depending on market availability and will all cumulatively add to the price at the pump, which companies will absolutely add a profit kickback on top.
Markets are fucking weird though, they dont always react how you expect and those tariffs won't apply to the ~60% or so of our overall oil demand that can be covered with domestic sources (at least until that production begins to drop mid 2025), so we'll see. Wild fucking times ahead.
Probably my girlfriend's mother. Her family lives in a remote part of Y'allistan kinda country. According to my gf they used to be quite moderate and intelligent but since moving (for better land to run their family business) her mom has become very isolated and feeds off nothing but Fox/OANN and whatever shit YouTube recommends. She's become such an abortion hating, trans hating, gay hating person in only the last three or four years that even my girlfriend says she barely recognizes her sometimes.
This is my first Thanksgiving with her family after 2 years together, and depending on how it goes it might be close to the last, we're not sure.
25% across the board on raw inputs would bring current $70 WTI barrels to $87.5, and we'll pretty solidly see a price floor of $4/gal from our current nation average around 3.20
It's unironically a really good place to buy consumer electronics, both online and in person. They're still holding on, they've crawled out of the hole they put themselves in a decade ago.

Hot take: "withholding" a vote simply eliminates your voice in the political system, meaning you no longer matter in any way.
Correct, that is JP built, along with a cpuple other small name models.... And trump has flat said everything imported is gonna see a minimum 10% tax. seeing as how the Crown made up for <1% of toyota's total sales volume for q3 2024, I doubt there's going to be a huge overall impact to their sales competitiveness vs the Big 3's entire lineup though
we're now at the point where the law doesn't matter as they will just rewrite it to do whatever they want, get outta here with those legally true technicalities
Ford, GM, Chrysler instantly regretting their republican pac contributions as Toyota comes to eat their lunch even harder.

i can't even guess as to why they went quiet. not one guess at all. we will never know.
edit: well they're not quiet now once they get called out
What's the most "set and forget" Linux distro that's still flexible these days?
My go to back in The Day was just Ubuntu because I was lazy. We're talking the 14.04/16.04 days. Ubuntu was simple and mostly just worked. I now find myself needing to de-spywareify as the coming administration is likely to force Microsoft into tracking "dissidents" so need to get back into weaning myself off the Windows teat.
I recently dualbooted my main desktop with Ubuntu 24.04 and have been... entirely underwhelmed. The whole separation between APT and snap packages doesn't work well together and is really the big problem I have, as a lot of standard deb packages just refuse to install properly now. the UI is hard to use and doesn't make me happy, and it's not been playing nice with my Zen 4 desktop when it comes to ACPI power states (no sleep, doesn't reliably turn the power off when i ask it to turn off, etc). So overall, I am just not terribly interested in using Ubuntu anymore.
What I primarily want is the sort of "mostly just works" like old 16.04 but still gave you the full ability to monkey under the hood- and is also something based on a normal distro that most people write guides for because I am a smoothbrain. Should I just head to using basic plain jane Debian or something?

A seemingly non-competitive Senate race in deeply Republican Nebraska is no longer a safe bet for two-term incumbent Sen. Deb Fischer.

He's sure not a super liberal, but he isn't going to roll over for corporate interests or corruption either, and I consider that a massive win.
