Strongly worded letter incoming!

That sounds like a different system than the article is talking about. People were driving their trash to the dump for a flat rate:

Under the town’s system, residents would buy a $240 sticker for their cars that allowed them yearlong access to the dump, where they could dispose of as much garbage as they wished.

So why would you go to the dump with an empty can or leave the dump without your garbage being taken?

I’ve had a similar system for years and I don’t see it as that unfair (given I don’t have a lot of financial troubles). Every week they empty my bin for a flat rate and if I have more than what fits into the bin I get an extra charge.

Not at all dead but I’d like modernist style to become more popular again.

Lips would be fine.

Hail to the king baby.

Of course it’s a good idea!

Due too us being sandwiched between two relatively stable countries we really have avoided some of the worst effects of war. Civilian causalities for most countries in WWII outpaced military casualties. It’s made us very cavalier in who we choose to attack. The advent of drone warfare really hasn’t helped either.

Next: Operation Iron Shaft

Gotta be a some kind of link between brain damage and rabid conservatism.

Interstate compact. Don’t give up gerrymandered districts until a supermajority of states agree to independently drawn or algorithmic districts.

So glad “red flag laws” aren’t a thing in Texas and we’ve recently made it even harder to do such a thing. /s-but-not-s

Are 6% of respondents 12-year-olds that identify as “your dad’s a cuck”?

Did they just say “surrender” twice?

That 94% score doesn’t surprise me at all. Ugh, I wish I had more time to dedicate to gaming.

It’s fucking Texas! Are we allowed to have grenade launchers now?

Most of this money was also “allocated” but not really spent. So at least to Bidens credit money wasn’t thrown away, it just sat there not doing what it was supposed to do.

Freedom Fighters. Some mechanics were clunky but most were great and I really can’t think of any other games with such a good mix of strategy and quick-thinking/reaction gameplay. I’ve played it through at least 3 times!

This over voting in lock-step with Russia and North Korea. 🤦

Trump and his cohorts were ALWAYS going to claim victory. To this day plenty of them won’t say Biden beat Trump.

I think it’s also a great risk and a shot-in-the-dark kind of attack. They wouldn’t have “live” access to the machines so they would’ve needed a complicated algorithm to alter results in a believable way. If 100% of votes for Harris get swapped to Trump that’s very suspicious. If it’s only 10% of votes then you risk having no affect. And if the attack is successful on every machine in a deep blue county or precinct that makes the amount you could reasonably swap even less. In other words it’s extremely difficult to be effective AND be subtle.

The Starlink theory sounds a bit more plausible but that also sounds like a stretch assuming the transmissions were encrypted (and God help us if they thought that wasn’t necessary).
