These outdated troglodytes in the cushy retirement home probably wouldn’t know what a VPN was if you explained to them. Half the time they’re asleep on the bench dreaming of days gone by.

Just tell him we want the latest F-47 and would wait for that to come before committing to older models. By that time maybe his blood clots will do there work.

The next step up from slammed ? 😉

The Republicans very own SS is acting as designed.

I would like to think that Judges, especially those leaning Republican, are starting to think that some people might start thinking they’re complicit. So maybe they want to keep heads on shoulders.

Answers for the curious 🫣

Probably waiting on orders and a stipend before they mysteriously change there mind and throw their hands on the air as there was nothing they could do.

Heh. Renting with extra steps … 😉

Just in case you get board of that one, here’s a Morning one to play around with:

Wouldn’t, speaking from a non US perspective, bylaws handle that though. Noise, trash, unwanted cold calling, I’m looking at you Jehovahs, to enforce that action. Or does this work as a front line against that ?

Natures is amazing at what it is capable of. That’s a perfectly eroded walkway. 😜

It is such a strange concept. I’ve never really cottened on to why they exist or what the benefits are to them only the bad news about what they do. I had a gaming colleague in Wales that lived in an area where they had to get permission on what colour to paint their house. Just unfathomably comedic about the whole concept really.

No, no they won’t. But it makes for a nice soundbite for the gullible masses.

They’ve killed in captivity, had one ruled a homicide by an examiner, publicly executed 2 in front of cameras and so far they’ve managed to at least have their budget increased. At some point something will break.

I’m sure they’ve taken Tim’s stern criticism on board and will begin withdrawing ICE from the state any day now.

I think people over there are going to need bigger placards to march with. The current ones don’t appear to be getting the lefts current message across.

New to Lemmy, Edited original post.

This weekend. I’ve asked my significant other to check through and backup any files she may need but we’re switching off Microslops ecosystem this coming week. Got it down to Ubuntu or Mint for an ease of use while not jumping in the hole too deep. But we are in agreement at least to turn away.

Thanks Everyone. We went with Mint Cinnamon Distro. The hardest part being how to get into the BIOS and turn on the USB boot. Everything that was installed windows wise is now installed mint wise and got the other halfs’ bookmarks up and running in a browser for her (Vivaldi if anyone’s interested). VPNs up and working and so far so good. Didn’t get spammed to death with subscriptions windows which is a major plus.

“They would rather be right, than effective”. Which is why we are where we are.

Can’t have them reading up on laws and rights when put in prison. The innocent might get out.
