That's also how many car manufacturers avoid duties here in Europe.

Note they've apparently closed the chicken tax loophole so that's not happening any more. The last vehicles which did it were Nissan NV200s, which weren't sold through normal channels. They didn't let Ford do it with Transits at the same time, possibly because they were sold through dealerships, or maybe due to volume.

No, what we see is the right completely abandoning the position of defending men's and family right

When was it ever for the rights of families? They were controlled by men, so those were men's rights, too. Women weren't even allowed to be separate people in this shithole country until recently. The USA really is a not-so-secret white supremacist religious ethnostate, with all of the oppression of women that entails. Iran was basically where we are plus optional and waning headscarves when we did a coup.

I guess I'd be cautiously in favour of the SMR plan if it was for the public good

The concept behind the SMR is making them cheaper and installing them in more locations. Neither of those things are good; the first means you'd have to cut corners and the second is obviously bad given the cost of failure.

The experience was always fraught with problems, brittle, and wouldn't work again after having been left fallow for a few months. This was true whenever I tried it though the project history.

Wine has historically changed a lot from one major version to the next. Therefore if you got a Windows program working with Wine, and upgraded Wine, it would IME usually stop working. This isn't true any more, although it's still a danger. These days having multiple wine versions and using a launcher is a way to handle this. There is no problem running multiple wine versions at once.

Florida residents affected by the breach will receive a letter offering one year of free credit monitoring through Sontiq, Inc.

They can get that free from Experian, so... whogivesafuck? That's really just advertising for Sontiq, they are hoping people will sign up after the free year for something they could get for free somewhere else.

(Experian is doing it to try to trick you into buying services by diddling their version of your credit score up and down, sell you access to your other credit scores you can get for free, get you to apply for other lines of credit, etc. But you can do none of that shit and still get free credit monitoring.)
