I know we all scoff at the use of old tech, but sometimes "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" applies. Is it causing bottlenecks? Are there security concerns?

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

That couch looks like it was pulled from a painting.

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.

Eh, it definitely seems excessive, but it's likely just a matter of scale. If they're really that well off, then spending 2 grand on a phone would be similar to buying concert tickets, or bringing a friend along to a theme park, etc.
