Same with the residents of DC

That’s not unreasonable. Starting a small business is manageable with business loans which you can get from a bank with nothing more than a well written business plan. If the flower shop makes more than the business spends on rent, labor and supplies any normal schmoe can have a neighborhood flower shop.

Funny, it’s been less than 24hrs and I got a ticket in complaining about why PDFs look one way in Ease US PDF editor and totally different in Adobe Reader. You’re just wrong. I didn’t say it was worth the money to pay for Adobe, and I didn’t say it wasn’t a scam. But I do tell the truth when it comes to true parity, there are competitors to PDF editing but there is no free PDF editors that properly do the job 100% of the time.

Adobe acrobat is THE PDF editor. PDF is a proprietary format created and developed by Adobe. Any software that can edit PDFs is doing so in a format they do not have any control over. And there just aren’t any proper PDF editors that are feature complete. now if you’re an individual who needs to make a PDF in the privacy of your own home, by all means, use a cheap or free or FOSS application to do so. But if you need that PDF to be readable and useable and seamlessly compatible on other computers for other users for ever? Better pay the Adobe tax because there is a good chance, it won’t look the way you expect it to when someone opens it up in Adobe which their company definitely has.

I might agree with you if I hadn’t heard ten thousand bad takes over the years about how digital art isn’t art or how photographs aren’t art or how video games aren’t art. If their take was that printing pre-made files isn’t art, then they should have said that.

Digital art is still art and effort and talent. You also need to have some technical expertise to know how to use as well as tune and maintain a 3D printer. 3d modeling is not a “snap your fingers and it’s there” kind of thing.

That’s literally what this is

Did we read the same article? The article was pretty open to the idea especially in the demonstrated environments. I also read nothing about AI…

Revolt isn’t new. Matrix and revolt are around the same age and are both not even feature competitive with Discord. So until there is a fully featured truly open alternative to discord, there will be still others trying to take discord’s audience.

What are you saying?

That’s the risk you take with an outdoor brat. It’s not even like water is harmful to it.

I used to have an outdoor brat and if that happened I would have shrugged it off and expected him not to go there again.

Up like a rocket; down like a feather.

I’ve seen this meme before, therefore it is inconveniencing my internet experience and that is against the rules!

I would agree if he wasn’t publicly voting Republican at that point, which he was. By midterms 2022 he had publicly stated that the Democrats were the party of hate and division and that everyone should vote Republican. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Political_activities_of_Elon_Musk

Not always. People often wish to transfer plates to their new car so they don’t have to memorize a new one.

I think I can shed some light on this. In California, you pretty much have to have a car. There are roughly 40 million residents in California. When you get a car, a license plate is issued. When you register a car, a license plate is issued. When you order a vanity plate, a license plate is issued. The same car can be registered to several license plates before any of them return to circulation. If a plate stays inactive for a number of years, then it returns to circulation to be reissued. I’m not sure about California, but some states it’s 10 years, others have 20 years and I’m sure still others have other lengths of time for these numbers to expire. The reason for this is that you can let your registration lapse and still re-register your car once you can afford to do so. Or a car can sit in some legal dispute for a long period of time. Various reasons a car’s registration may lapse but still want to be registered again some day. So let’s say you buy a used car in California and then register new vanity plates on it. Let’s also say you’re the 3rd owner. It’s not unreasonable that that particular car have 4 different license plate numbers associated with it that have not been reregistered or are currently in use. Also, many people own more than one car.

You might even called them Proxzis

I remember seeing that on YouTube years ago.

There is a balance to be struck. News has a few vital cogs in the machine that it cannot continue without. It needs reporters, editors, news to report, readers who are interested, and an income stream to keep it all running. It doesn’t need to be profitable, but it does need to be sustainable. If you only ever report stories that nobody cares about, you will not make enough money to be sustainable. If you only report sensation, you will become corrupt. If you over-report on the same subject, readers will become numb to what you have to say. So while you are correct, news needs to report what is important, they also need to consider how their stories will impact their readers.

I don’t know, I think I’ve seen more than 2-3k of these trucks in Houston alone. Also someone keeps etching “Swastikar” into them. Rumor is they’re using an acid etchant like ferric chloride.
