I imagine a lot of them have. Problem is far too many of them agree with Col. Jessep (Jack Nicholson):

Son, we live in a world that has walls, and those walls have to be guarded by men with guns. Who’s gonna do it? You? You, Lieutenant Weinberg? I have a greater responsibility than you can possibly fathom. You weep for Santiago and you curse the Marines. You have that luxury. You have the luxury of not knowing what I know: that Santiago’s death, while tragic, probably saved lives. And my existence, while grotesque and incomprehensible to you, saves lives! You don’t want the truth, because deep down in places you don’t talk about at parties, you want me on that wall. You need me on that wall. We use words like “honor”, “code”, “loyalty”. We use these words as the backbone of a life spent defending something. You use them as a punchline! I have neither the time nor the inclination to explain myself to a man who rises and sleeps under the blanket of the very freedom that I provide, and then QUESTIONS the manner in which I provide it! I would rather you just said “thank you”, and went on your way. Otherwise, I suggest you pick up a weapon, and stand a post. Either way, I don’t give a DAMN what you think you are entitled to!

Unless there’s another beeper attack I missed, the one last September was directed at Hezbollah, across Lebanon and Syria.

Not quite, but relatively close.

Even though I rarely listen to PSA anymore, one of my favorite insults for him will always be “C+ Santa Monica fascist”

Lemme show ya somethin’!

Here! Educate yourself!

This accounts for some portion of it, but the other part is the rise in interest rates. With borrowing money no longer being nearly free, companies tightened their budgets.

Just make sure not to lose it.

8.5 years. Coworkers for years, then decided to give it a try 3 years ago.

I think @Quilotoa@lemmy.ca has you beat with ~49 years

Agreed. Why the fuck is a browser allowed to know my battery status or connection strength?

Absolutely the way to go. But will they be able to do it fast enough before being pushed out by market forces?

Yeah, but if the community doesn’t properly set their package language, they may end up breaking through depending on your setup.

Why the fuck did he have to get cast in this?

SALT has a $10k limit.

No, Texas (nor any other state) can not secede from the Union.

Can Texas secede? I heard it is one of the only states that can secede from the United States.

It is a common misunderstanding that Texas has the right to leave the United States. The Texas State Library and Archives Commission (TSLAC) addresses this on their page about Texas’s annexation:

It is said of Texas (and, occasionally, Vermont) that it received a letter or document of permission to withdraw from the Federal Union if it so chose. […] In fact, Texas received no special terms in its admission to the Union. Once Texas had agreed to join the Union, she never had the legal option of leaving, either before or after the Civil War.

But then how are you supposed to subjugate them???

Completely agree. Falls into the “some people have more money than sense” category.
