Given their track record, I think it'd be more accurate to say DOGE reported thousands of times on the same one subscription being paid for by the taxpayers, because it appeared on multiple databases, no one at DOGE normalized those because they have no idea how to do that, and as a result the cost informed in their report was falsely inflated by three orders of magnitude.

The Cass Review was prepared following the same careful method of scientific meta-analysis followed by RFK Jr. and his vaccine experts.

No "/s" because this is strictly factual, and even more worrying due to that.

Oh come on.

We've been saying "Thanks, Biden!" for years as a joke, and you blue haired legbeards always got riled up with your "source????" and "citation needed???" cries.

(FWIW I don't support Trump and have never voted Republican).

enjoy your enjoyment of 'sound'.

as you get older (GOML) the sound of the sound matters so much less.

there were times that listening to a single speaker fm pocket 'transistor radio' was good enough to enjoy the songs.

have your fun with your rumble and explosions. as you get older, that shit becomes SO much less important, you wont believe how irrelevant all that hype really is.

I have not been to a theater in - 20 years? more? I cant remember.

its been unpleasant for decades. and with home theater, unless you're a teen trying to escape home and get 'privacy' somewhere else, theaters have long outlived their usefulness.

I think I stopped theaters around the time I cut the cable.

all around, what passes for entertainment is just plain rotten and/or boring.

you can keep it.

How do you pay a kid $20 for mowing your lawn if he only has a pre-paid VISA card? I still keep at least $100 in cash in my wallet.

The total yearly electrical energy consumption of the entire world converted to heat, is a rounding error compared to the amount of heat trapped by CO2. And as long as we don't have the blanket of CO2 trapping that heat, it quickly gets irradiated out into space. Earth's own internal heat would have long since cooked us if that weren't the case.

Some will. His devouts will think something along these lines:

"Sure, prices are high, but that's because they are attacking the US, and killing babies, and mutilating children, and then grooming those mutilated children into going to their secret pizzeria underground dungeons where they're raped and then sacrificed to Beelzebub, all the while their invading hordes of international military cat-and-dog eating gangs roam the cities causing riots, because they hate 'Murica and must be stopped! And He's stopping them! So higher prices are a small price to pay for Saving Freedom and Democracy and the 'Murican Dream and Way of Life!!!1!11!!"

And so will adamantly oppose any call they may make for Trump to step down.

The consideration is that you get to use the software. It "licensed, not sold". If you want to keep using the software, you comply with the license, which probably means an audit clause. If the agreement is void, then you have no right to use the software anymore and are in copyright violation. It's not a good deal, but that's enterprise proprietary software for you.

Android has had sideloading for decades, and none of that happens.

This is such cry-baby nonsense.

NONSENSE.

Since 2008, I have personally mentored dozens of young dudes (at no cost whatsoever, just because that's what successful people do).

I have helped poor dudes in bad neighborhoods buck up, get some side hustles, stack cash, and buy property.

You fucked yourself because you refuse to actually do someone to buy property. I don't know ANYONE, starting with even zero money, who couldn't find a nice home in just 2-3 years of saving money properly -- except the lepers in California, and fuck them anyway.

If that's the case, then the way (W)estern, (E)ducated, (I)ndustrialized, (R)ich, and (D)emocratic countries raise their real children into becoming merely older children has hit an all-time low. Or high, depending on how one looks at it.

15-years-old are children? What kind of nonsense is this?

I understand wanting to prevent actual children, that is, those up to 11-years-old, from watching unvetted content. And providing a transition period on a curve once someone leaves childhood at 12 years of age and becomes a pre-teen, then a teen at 14.

But calling those in the 12-to-15 bracket "children" is an utter and complete absurd!

I'm pretty sure aluminum fires aren't self sustaining in the the atmosphere.

I bought the Canon MF462Cdw color laser several years ago when I got fed up paying for inkjet cartridges. Works great, toner last a long time as long as you are not constantly printing out full color photos all the time. Biggest inconvenience is that paper tray 1 is the custom media feeder, so if you don't have the Canon drivers installed and just depend on the generic postscript drivers, the print job often gets sent to to tray 1 by default and you will have to manually click a button on the printer to tell it to go ahead and use try 2, which has the standard letter media in it.

But other than that, no paper feed issues, no break downs. A nice automatic scanner feed that rarely jams. No complaints really. Keep in mind if you are buying it for kids that specialty uses like iron on transfers require special laser compatible transfer paper that might not be available at Office Max.
