The only danger I see in communism is that no matter how benevolent it starts, communism will always (eventually) become a dictatorship. If we could somehow take human greed out of the equation, communism could be really nice for everyone. As long as humans are in charge, communism will suck for nearly everyone.

I do.

The better question is this: How does trying to make Biden lose the primary in Michigan help the people in Gaza?

Right… Because there is another real choice in this race.

The orange con-man is even friendlier to Israel and would help to escalate this tragedy.

I don’t like the choices either, but the one that isn’t Biden is so much worse!

Okay, fine. Sure. Now impeach every single one of those cowardly mutherfuckers who voted against the border bill last week!

And Democrats! Stop standing so much on your principles and call these mutherfuckers out for this shit! Repeat it endlessly until it sinks into the public mindset!

You only need a key to activate Windows. Windows 10 and later will install and run just fine without activation.

Not to worry. Before it explodes, our sun will expand into a red giant much larger than the orbit of the Earth.
No one on Earth will be around to witness the explosion. So we have that going for us, which is nice.

Yep. Leave them in the pants pocket until I transfer them to a fresh pair.

Sleeping me is not to be trusted with such things. 😴

This didn’t stop being a problem for me until I made a long term effort to only allow my keys to be in my hand, in the ignition of my car, or in my pocket. Not my coat or jacket pocket either. My pants pocket. I may not always have my jacket, but I always take my pants. Opening a door and leaving them in the lock is also not allowed. I used to do that and then leave them there all night long. No matter how inconvenient it may be at that moment, this rule is never to be broken.

Keys are in the hand, ignition, or pocket only!

I never let go of them unless they are going in the ignition or my pocket.

It was hard at first and I continued to lose them for a while. But I kept at it and because I did this the pattern is now habit and my keys haven’t been lost in years.

I’ve got fifty cents that says this dude watches an extraordinary amount of gay porn and somehow he thinks that is shameful. It isn’t, but he thinks it is.

If you have a vacuum bag sealer, you could make some custom bags that hold two eggs or more, crack the eggs into the bag (a wide-mouth funnel helps), vacuum out most of the air and seal them. Lay them flat during the initial freeze and they will store great!

Those red hats do seem to have a “mark of the beast” flair to them. They aren’t the permanent mark indicated in Revelation 13:16, but I think if you wear it every day it may as well be.

I’m not a Christian, but his followers certainly are. I wonder how they don’t see it?

American citizens who reside in one state are not the property of that state and cannot be prohibited from traveling to other states. Case closed.

You can be sure that even the Epic version will still require the Ubisoft launcher. That is how all of my Steam purchased Ubisoft games are with the exception of the first Assassin’s Creed which predated the Ubisoft launcher. All of the others require it regardless of how I bought it.

I’m going to wait for at least two or more years after release for the new Prince of Persia. My days of paying full price for Ubisoft’s games are over and recent statements from the CEO make me reluctant to ever buy their games again.

I had a cat who did this. I loved it and was a bit disappointed when he stopped a few weeks later.

You said he is young. He will likely calm down as he gets older.

If the crying really bothers you, pick up the bowl as soon as he stops eating and don’t put it down again until the next meal. Then there will be fewer clues when it is time for food. He will still know, but it will require more effort on his part.

Start small with important things, like your keys and your phone, and create a contextual place for them. In the home they are always in the same place. The location should be convenient a table or a shelf is great. The important part is that you never set them down anywhere else.

When you are out, they are on your person but always in the same place. Never set your phone or keys down while you are outside of your home. They are in your hand or in your pocket. There are no other places to put them.

My phone is always either in my pocket, on the arm of my big chair, or on my desk on or next to the charger. I try to never put it down anywhere else. My phone is almost never lost. My keys are similar. They are either in my hand, in a keyhole, or in my pocket. I never put them anywhere else and I refuse to put them down anywhere but my pocket.

Get in the habit of refusing to put important things down unless you can put them away properly and they will get harder to lose track of. Once those habits are strong, slowly expand to more things having a specific place in your world and you will find that things go missing less often.

UPS used to give real time tracking info here, but that disappeared sometime in mid to late-2023.

Agreed on the rest though, Amazon and UPS delivery are both much better than FedEx. I could not think of FedEx being a good retailer until they can improve the quality of their deliveries.

MS Solitaire, Space Pinball, and Minesweeper come to mind. They were not my favorites, but I know a few people who have a few hundred hours on one or more of those.

For me it’s C&C Generals Zero Hour. I have had a copy since it released in 2003, it still works, and I still play it in single player mode at least once a week. It’s great because it does not require a huge time commitment and campaign missions take about an hour or less to complete. To me it’s one of the best RTS style games out there. My second favorite? C&C Red Alert 2 and Yuri’s Revenge.

I have also very much enjoyed the Assassin’s Creed series up to AC Odyssey.

I was looking at one of those new washer/dryer combo units recently (I have heard these are common in Europe but they are fairly new to the US market) and it had a unique feature where you could fill the detergent reservoir, scan the barcode on the bottle, and the machine would dispense the appropriate amount of detergent for the load.

I can see connecting to the Internet on occasion might be helpful here to update the local barcode database, but I doubt it should need updating more often than once or twice a year. Does that mean the feature will work without constant live updates? Probably not, but I doubt it needs to update very often to remain current.

I think instead of saying “nobody is paying attention” it would be better to say that this kind of rhetoric makes him unfit to serve in any capacity.

His attempted insurrection has disqualified him from holding any elected office. He should not be on the ballot in any State. The only news that we should be reading about Trump is what a sad loser he really is and, in my opinion, has always been.

What he should have said is this:

“On January 6, 2021 former President Donald Trump engaged in an insurrection against the United States. Under the 14th Amendment of the US Constitution Section 3, Colorado, Maine, and every other State in the nation should permanently remove him from the ballot because he is disqualified from running for office. Sadly this action might actually endear him to his supporters even more, but it is still the right thing to do.”
