They won't regret anything. COVID deniers took their dying breaths to continue insisting it was just a cold.

You can only expect a change of heart in their final seconds, long after it would matter.

It's easy to funnel money from the rubes. It was only 2 years ago that I learned some churches will automatically withdraw tithes from your bank account and they encourage you to set up "direct deposit" with them.

The entire economic model of these loons is built on the same principle: anything you use regularly, for "free" or built with taxpayer money, should instead become a subscription service you have to pay for, to a cabal of rich sociopaths. In the meantime, the actual free option is brain rotting propaganda to keep you voting for the rich sociopaths so they can repeat step 1. See: Fox News.

Much like programming itself, where if you have to write tons of comments to explain what you're doing and why, your code is the problem and should be rewritten to be more legible. If you need a training seminar on how to use the program, the program maybe isn't very usable lol.

Well that does work, so thank you for that. But I still maintain that's crazy unintuitive. If I saw that option in a context menu at least it would be self-explanatory. But the feature as-is would only ever be known if you hovered over a single character and read the tooltip.

Oh fuck off.

Nah mate, SN has no correct way to use it. The interface is fucking horrible. It's a black hole of information. The search is a stack - if you want to remove a query at the bottom of the stack, you have to remove all the queries, then add them back one at a time. I've lost edits to tickets because I dared to have two tabs open at the same time. I've seen edits to ONE ticket end up on ANOTHER, again, because of having two tabs open.

No killer feature can redeem it when the basic workflow is hot dogshit.

Despite having a laptop in college for comp sci, I almost always took notes with pen and paper. Arrows, boxes, diagrams, small blurbs of concepts, didn't really matter what I wrote. It was the act of writing that helped me remember it.

I use mullvad and qbittoerrent as well, but I'm not savvy enough to have noticed any leakage. Hence my interest.

Following this thread, let us know if you have a resolution op.

King Cotton was such a deluded economic concept that I'm surprised it hasn't displaced "eggs" as the thing people say in the phrase "don't put all your X in one basket."

In fact, Trump's pro-tariff policy is self-defeating in many ways similar to King Cotton: piss off everyone in the world simultaneously, belligerently assuming you're the only place in the world with a given commodity. Meanwhile, other nations will fill in the gap you left behind and leave you in the dust.

Republicans are the children who couldn't fit a square peg in a round hole, threw a temper tantrum, and broke the toy trying to shove that square peg in a round hole over and over.

But who is really at fault for the tariffs that are screwing over small businesses and homeowners? Definitely not the people that will be relying on those services if they end up in police custody.

Good for you for keeping your eye on the ball. "Flood the zone" as a strategy is super effective at distracting people from the sources of the world's true woes. And props for doing your research and coming to your own conclusion. So many voters either don't have the ability, or the capacity, to do it. And it's so important for people to do it despite the setbacks. So thanks for looking after your community.

Also called a "mill rate" it's a tax on a property on per-$1000 basis (per mille) of assessed value.

If you own a house assessed at $150,000, and you have a mill rate of 20, you pay 20x150 per year, that's $3,000.
