That was actually what my initial response was going to be! Then I checked the definition and saw it wasn’t even necessary to argue at the molecular level.
This sooo much. I’m not a tech person but I’m trying to learn because the giant corporations are clearly evil. I just want to have a modicum of privacy in my corner of the world so here I am trying to figure out how to self host some basic services.
This seemed a little sus to me so I checked the dictionary. Merriam-Webster says wet can mean consisting of liquid such as water. (See 1a of screen capture).
Built a new PC last January and started fresh with Win11 on one drive and Nobara on another. I was able to play all of the games I wanted on Nobara just fine. After a month or two I had a problem develop where I was unable to update because it would start giving errors and the update process wouldn’t complete.
I decided to try out Bazzite and have been with it ever since. I very very rarely boot into Windows. I highly recommend giving it a shot!
The second amendment of the U.S. constitution guarantees the rights of citizens to bear arms. Many liberals support stricter gun laws so that there are stronger background checks, limits, etc in order to try and reduce mass shootings, etc. The right wing folks are generally the opposite, trying to remove limits and make them accessible.
So no, you cannot evoke the second amendment as a defense for shooting anyone. It would only be a potential legal defense against laws limiting gun ownership. The second amendment says you can own a gun, not that you can shoot people with them.
As for the state’s monopoly on violence, that pretty much stands except in clear cut cases of self defense. So if someone were to shoot an ICE agent (and survive the situation to make it to trial), it would have to be some pretty extraordinary circumstances that would allow the person to avoid conviction of a crime.
So you’re saying that approving subsidies now just means the insurance companies would make even more profit and the customer is basically already irreversibly hurt because the premiums are already raised?
That just doesn’t sound like something Congress would do, they are the good guys.
Similar experience here. My wife and I both got Alienware laptops, although a little before 2020. Mine died a few years back and had to ship back and have motherboard replaced. A few months later hers died and we shipped back.
“Motherboard needs to be replaced but we don’t have them in stock anymore. Best of luck.”
This is really clever.
