I don’t know if I’m alone on this, but I just bought the biggest 5400rpm HDD that was in my price range when I set up. Might notice the slower speed when doing a big data dump, but for streaming purposes you can run many 4k streams concurrently and the bottleneck would probably be your network speed before you hit a drive read bottleneck.
Just search for “kneeling pad” or “gardening knee pad” and you’ll find a bunch of pretty durable options for around $10. Or, hell, just get a pair of skateboarding knee pads. You might not be the pinnacle of fashion, but your knees will be well protected.
Trumps just testing the waters to see which Congressmen are loyal and which he still needs to get some kompromat on, so he’s not stopped when he enacts the real fasc-ie stuff.
I blocked so many accounts over the past few months. The propaganda posters were freaking everywhere.
We pay more in taxes than the welfare states, have less representation… Seems like there was something in US History about taxation without representation.
Yeah, that’s fair. US mindset, I’m just still processing our shitshow.
Theoretically, sure. Pragmatically, we just elected a fascist insurrectionist, and it’s not going to happen in the near future.
Leave, if possible. If not, put your head down, continue to vote/support progressive candidates and ideas. Understand at the same time the futility of this when there only exist 2 right of center parties who will do whatever they can to stop any real reform. Also internalize the fact that a majority of voters actually voted for a convicted felon and insurrectionist fascist, just to maintain a perspective on this hellish reality.
Mosquito Coast is a classic for sure. I hardly ever see anyone mention Regarding Henry, and I don’t think I’ve met anyone in person who recognized the movie when I’ve mentioned it. That’s a solid recommendation!
I remember being blown away when I saw that movie when it was first released. Cruise actually showed some acting ability instead of just playing “Tom Cruise” as he has in most of his films.
When you vote in a Nazi, expect Nazis to be validated.
I can not imagine a sequel to Gladiator being as good as the original…but, damn, imagine if it was. That first movie is a classic.
It’s below the first one now, according to the page’s update. Not that rottentomatoes is super accurate on movie quality anyways.
Clinton left a booming economy and projections to reduce, if not eliminate, the national debt in 10 years. Then came another Bush. Bush left a shitty economy for Obama, through bullshit tax breaks for the rich during a time of bullshit military spending among other dumb actions. Obama fixed things. trump inherited a booming economy from Obama, and slowly (maybe quickly) ruined it through gross incompetence. Biden inherited a shit economy and inflation from that moron, trump. After dealing with fallout from stupid trump policies (that’s being generous), Biden managed to turn things around and the economy was once again doing pretty good. Now that dipshit trump will give his idiot voters and the rest of us another shitty economy that the next Dem will have to try to fix. The wheels on the bus go round and round.
That seems pretty ridiculous. I never had too much of an issue with visibility in the rain, and you can already buy gloves with a built-in squeegee blade on the thumb. That said, if it were a lot cheaper it might be worth trying out.
I wish y’all luck. I’ll be way on the outside of this country watching it fall.
I’m in that country and can’t disagree. I was just paraphrasing the line from the Joker movie to a friend of mine,“We’re going to get exactly what we deserve.”
In June 1973, Led Zeppelin played a legendary concert at Kezar Stadium in San Francisco, where an unforgettable moment took place. As the band performed before over 50,000 fans, white doves were released during the closing of “Stairway to Heaven.” While most of the birds flew off into the crowd, one returned to the stage, landing unexpectedly on Robert Plant’s hand. The scene was striking: Plant, cigarette and drink in hand, calmly held the dove in the other, creating a serene image that contrasted with the band’s electric performance. -source
Legendary moment from a legendary group.
I think Liberals kept him off the ticket.
