Many more states have this than people realize. We made mail in voting a normal thing during The Civil War.
The phrase “Red Tape” refers to The Federal Veterans Administration in Washington DC, after The Civil War. To claim your veterans benefits, you had to go get your service record pulled in Washington DC at the VA. All those records were bound in red tape.
Maybe. Stay vigilant. They took Trump off the primary ballot, who else is still on the primary (GOP) ballot in CO?
Saw this on Lemmy a few weeks ago
(Verse 1) Sitting in the cab of my old pickup truck, Memories rollin’ by, like the miles we used to clock. Drove through the sunset, with you by my side, Never thought a metal heart could take me for a ride.
(Chorus) We were a highway love, wind in our hair, Haulin’ dreams together, an inseparable pair. But now you’re gone, and it’s just my luck, My darlin’ left me, a self-driving truck.
(Verse 2) We hauled our troubles down those lonesome roads, Your engine hummed the tunes, while our story unfolds. Loaded up with laughter, and baggage too, Little did I know, you had a route of your own to pursue.
(Chorus) We were a highway love, wind in our hair, Haulin’ dreams together, an inseparable pair. But now you’re gone, and it’s just my luck, My darlin’ left me, a self-driving truck.
(Bridge) I miss the way your headlights cut through the night, The hum of your engine, our rhythm just right. But now the road is empty, just echoes of our song, You found a new destination, I guess I got it wrong.
(Verse 3) We parked under stars, shared secrets in the dark, But now it’s just silence, an abandoned truck stop. I’m left with memories, and a tank full of regret, A self-driving heartbreak, I’ll never forget.
(Chorus) We were a highway love, wind in our hair, Haulin’ dreams together, an inseparable pair. But now you’re gone, and it’s just my luck, My darlin’ left me, a self-driving truck.
(Outro) So here I am, parked on this lonely track, Wishing you’d come back, but you won’t look back. You rolled away, with gears that don’t feel, Left me stranded, at the crossroads of steel.

Why does Massachusetts have such aggressive drivers? That seems like a large deviation for such a small state
I wonder what that says about my Dodge Sprinter…
I wouldn’t call that ironic, so much as a direct result of being descended from a Jewish family that lost people to The Holocaust. Pretty difficult for people to accuse him of being antisemitic, even with the “self hating Jew” stereotype. He’s literally the type of person who can say with authority, “you’re making your own people look bad, and we want nothing to do with this.”

Edit: responded to the wrong comment, please ignore.
One of my favorite fiction series of books broke it down as follows. You get paid for danger, skill, and annoyance. In this case annoyances are everything that makes the job undesirable.
Service industry has limited personal danger, relatively accessible skills, and limited annoyances.
Meanwhile deep sea fisherman has extremely high personal danger, again relatively accessible skill set, but it also has moderately high annoyances.
Because of this, the fisherman should be paid more than the chef.
I’m not entirely certain this actually works out in real life. CEO may have a high skill set, but personal danger and annoyances are both relatively low…
As far as I’m aware. I read the comic it’s a part of. They went to Egypt to try to excavate a tomb IIRC, but I’m probably conflating two different comics.
Has anyone jailbreaked one of these cars? Can you install your own OS on them? Seems like that should be doable.
Is there any voting system that doesn’t have flaws? I mean these are serious concerns, but what can we do to fix FPTP and have an electoral system that will allow us to get the people in that aren’t literal greedy psychopaths?
Don’t call this POS Donald Duck. Donald Duck canonically is a War Vet with PTSD that constantly was griping at Scrooge for not helping the community enough. Donald Duck is based AF.
I’m gonna put the odds at roughly 1000:1 that he does.
Actually, there are betting sites for this that would be, supposedly, more accurate than I am at creating those odds. What are the odds on the betting sites?
Edit: I’m not finding the odds…
Edit 2: Apparently there are 5:1 odds on if Trump takes a plea bargain. I would have set those a bit higher since he is willing to settle cases, but I doubt he’s willing to accept jail time of any sort.
Yeah, but they never found the strings, so we don’t pay attention to them anymore. Once they have some testable results we may invite them to the party again.
Weird. I wonder why it’s a non-standard barrel. 50 gallon drums are the ones that I’ve seen the most.
Physical switches > screens. It’s much harder to develop the muscle memory for a screen. I don’t have to look away from the road with switches.
Who TF gave it a genuine people personality?
YOU ALL HAVE VERY STRANGE ACCENTS FOR HUMANS, WHERE DO YOU HAIL FROM?
I TOO ENJOY WATCHING VIDEOS, AND PLAYING VIDEO GAMES WITH MY FELLOW HUMANS
Is there Lemmy Gold?
I’d assume the proceeds would go to the development team, so I would actually buy that rather than handing out the free gold I got on Reddit for multiple gilded comments.
