If they’re going to profit off insider knowledge, especially off a 15 minute head start on futures trading, they’re going to realize those gains in very short term. In this case, probably within 20 minutes, certainly within an hour. They won’t even get the discounted CGQD tax rate on them.
I honestly can’t tell whether her intent is to block any counter-climate change projects or if this is just a dumb chemtrails thing.
I mean, I assume it’s chemtrails, given the source, but it could easily be a “I like the smell of forest fires, and you’ll reduce hurricane intensity over my dead body.” Given the source.
Need new rules in House and Senate, too. The majority party gets majority in all the committees, gets to pick all the committee chairs, etc. All of the current non-D/non-R members ‘caucus’ with one of the major parties, making them de facto members of that party. A third party with enough representation to block the other two from gaining majority would almost certainly end up in an alliance with one, leaving us back with functional two-party politics.
All she had to do was say ‘no,’ and she could have protected her constituents and 330,000,000 other Americans.
My impression is that 50501 aren’t actually organizing anything, but just providing a one-stop forum for actual, local groups to advertise their events. And maybe a little bit of, “hey, let’s all do something on [this] day.” If you’re not already in a local activist community, it can be hard to find them.
Point being: if you can step up, do step up, but please don’t organize a Fyre Festival.
My Pi spends all of its time around 55°C in a 20-25°C room. Main server idles at 47°C. Those aren’t worrying temps.
Believe the “Don’t really care” jacket was for a tour of a disaster zone, or maybe one of the kids-in-cages camps.
I’ve watched enough Lock Picking Lawyer never to want a consumer ‘smart lock.’ Half of them can be opened with a magnet. Maybe commercial grade is better, but I’ve been locked out of my job after every power failure for the last 10 years, until someone comes along with a physical key.
Re homeassistant on a Pi: homeassistant does a lot of database transactions, so you may want to have db storage on something other than an SD card.
Zohran, What is best in life?
“To crush the oligarchs, see affordable housing, and hear the lamentations of landlords.”
In many races, DNC support after the primary is not so important. Remember gerrymandering? How party establishments have generally set up the districts along party lines?
Like I said, it’s been a minute, but BYD isn’t available in the US; looks like Mercedes offers 4 SUV/crossover models starting at $55k and 2 sedans starting at $75k; Kia is all SUV; Hyndai has one sedan and two crossovers. Ford is crossover/truck; GM is all SUVs. More than there were, but non-Tesla sedans are still the exception. I’d love to see BYD in the US. Love to see KEI in the US.
It’s been a while since I looked at EVs, but my (US) experience at the time was that Tesla was one of very few companies offering sedan-shaped EVs. The US market was full of crossovers & SUVs (like Rivian), and that form factor seems antagonistic to many of the things that make high performance, long range EVs: terrible aerodynamics, high body weight, poor visibility… They’re big enough to fill will batteries to compensate for the poor efficiency, but that just raises costs.
Bibi’s stopped taking his calls.
I think he signed this one just to prove that he can spell his own name right.
Cancer research and Medicaid.
In an election where the margin of victory is 1%, it only takes 1-in-50 racists to throw the election.
Sure, Kamala wasn’t hugely popular with internet Democrats. Sure, running as a centrist annoyed all the people looking for change. The whole Israel thing. Voters overlooked all of that with Biden in 2020, when he wasn’t hugely popular with internet Democrats & came with a 50 year legacy of supporting some atrocious policies.
This is terrible. Those guys make the_best accident reconstruction videos. https://www.youtube.com/user/USCSB
I won’t advocate for violence. I will always wish the perpetrator had found a better solution. But there are definitely politicians whose death I will not mourn, whatever the cause.
If you earn $50-200k, they you’re in the 22-24% federal tax bracket, but probably pay 15-20% Federal income tax. Plus 7.65% payroll tax (also federal). Plus 5-10% state tax. Some cities have an income tax. But yeah: 25-35% total tax burden is pretty common for middle income people.
