I have health insurance in the US and still have to pay a fuckton in copays to use it.

In early May, I searched GPs on my Healthcare plan, and I get to see a doctor on Jully 11.

I'm stocking up on ammunition in case I need it for self-defense and using a no-log VPN when criticizing the government.

So I'm gonna go with "No."

I didn't finish building the dividing wall in the garage in time to insurance air conditioning by mid-May.

The project will remain unfinished and I just won't use the workshop this summer.

That's just because Microsoft waited until Android and iOS were well-established before trying to make a smartphone OS. It could have been the best OS ever made, and it still would have been a failure because there wasn't a market for a third OS. It was hard enough at the time to get apps developed for both iOS and Android - there wasn't room for a third player.

The regional term that pegs me to where I grew up is calling access roads "feeders."

The Schumaker films had good casting. Clooney, Kilmer, Thurman, Jones, and Carrey were all great for their roles. They just happened to be cast in terrible films.

They can be awful on multiple fronts.

Nice to see that Jenna has potential.

Oh, they're coming. But they won't end well.

Our twist is the "heartland" will celebrate Bell's murder, insist that the concentration camp program be expanded, and push for the ration card system to be refunded.

If Kent State happened today, they'd be upset that more protestors weren't murdered.

Everyone talking about how it's because of Windows 11 or their greed driving people away, etc. But they're ignoring the big one:

People don't need as many computers these days. You don't have a lot of households with a laptop for every member of the family because smartphones and tablets have replaced the PC for many people for media consumption and basic tasks.

It was a caucus, not a primary. Caucuses eliminate candidates at each caucus site until someone has a majority.

Sometimes re-wiring a house or building isn't as practical as setting up a mesh network that's good-enough.
