This was...a bad decision. Quite frankly, they are abdicating responsibility with a sophomoric "not it!" when it comes to finally doing what the 14th requires. I wouldn't say it rises to the level of the Bush v. Gore decision at the turn of the millennium, but it is quite close.

I kinda think this about the Separatists in Star Wars...Dooku aside...

Same here, but I've also set up a Pi Zero W to run pihole/unbound at the inlaws place without any issue.

That would most certainly lead to alcohol poisoning...

Wind has many sources from a meteorological/climatological standpoint. Breaking wind, however, is a biiiiit more specific.

Republicans have been against Medicare since the Johnson administration. Reagan railed against it too early in his political career. This isn't new. Arguments against it now are still just as dumb as they were in the 60s.

I used to not like mustard, onions, or garlic but now I do. So, tastes do change. Some foods just taste better when prepared differently from when you were a kid though. Growing up, any time I had asparagus or squash, it was boiled. Yuck. But once I grew up and put those on a grill and they became magnificent.

New? How about old. Aside from the recent rights lost in the US wrt bodily autonomy/privacy (see Dobbs, etc.), what about the "Second Bill of Rights" as put forth by FDR?

In all seriousness, good for him (and us!) The fossil fuel industry had the chance to change their tune.

I switched for two reasons. First, I don't like how Microsoft is trying to attach everything to an online microsoft account. I prefer local control of my OS. I know there is a workaround for this, but it isn't worth the effort.

Second, I am Cheap. My latest hardware is a decade out of date, and linux makes better use of the limited resources that I have.

This. The icing on the cake is that this tax write-off affects the amount of tax dollars available for public assistance in the first place. If you want to help the poor, consider volunteering your time or donating to a legitimate charity.
