In a landmark ruling, the Supreme Court has overturned Judge Boasberg's restrictions on the Trump Administration's deportation of Venezuelan gang members, highlighting significant implications for immigration policy under the Alien Enemies Act.
I plan on switching mobile providers from Mint to Verizon at some point in the next month.
Mint has been amazing for living in a big city, but it definitely has struggled when I go out into more rural areas.
When I move to Chattanooga, I will be getting out there a bit more and need a better provider.
My question is: does it matter if I switch over while still in Chicago or after I move to TN? My gut says no but I’d assume my taxes/fees will be lower there.
not on price but coverage - I'm sure it depends on your specific area but I've generally found AT&T to have better rural coverage. Verizon would be next best, T-Mobile is a nonstarter.
I had read the same about AT&T but friends and family of mine in the area recommended Verizon. But I had read AT&T was the way to go for hiking, and I’m still not totally convinced I should go with Verizon
They are reselling services from all the big 3 networks, and one thing I really like is that I can receive and make phone calls and text messages worldwide without paying for roaming, as long as I have internet access on the phone, either through WiFi or an Esim.
I have used the Verizon network, and my wife uses AT&T, we reason that we get the best coverage that way.
This is about $20/month for Verizon network, 8GB data, and unlimited minutes.
Good afternoon Minds. Am I a genius or completely insane? A 1943 .303 Enfield with a 12x40 Vortex Diamondback tactical scope. Theoretically I should be able to hit and drop a moose at eight hundred meters.

@DwarvenAllFather Please tell me where in the Bible it says, "Kill the unbeliever"? I've read the Bible beginning to end a number of times, and have no memory of same.
Nice song and EXCELLENT recording! So totally noise free and the vocals oh so clear! Also liked the Weimaraner at the end. I had one of those at one time, most intelligent dog I've ever owned, he was an escape artist, understood the door-knob, window latch, etc, principals no problem. If he wanted to go out he was out. Fortunately he did not have a vicious bone in his body so not a threat to anyone. Anyway, enjoyed the video, so well recorded it felt like being there!
@bgm Mine lived to 13, then had a stroke that was too severe to have any chance at recovery, he could only move one paw, so we had to have him euthanized at that point.

This woman was a paid protester at a Hands Off Protest. She details what she had to do to get paid. They told her not to wear anything MAGA and she could not wear red. So she wore a black shirt and jeans. They also told her she would get paid if she brought a sign. Again, nothing MAGA. So she brought a “everyone deserves an education sign.”
They told her she had to march around. At the end, in order to get paid, she had to answer a 8 question questionnaire. She said the questions did have right and wrong answers and if you wanted to get paid, you had to answer them correctly from a liberal mindset.
Share this everywhere as I keep seeing people say that no one was paid. They were definitely paid.

Acting by himself, Chief Justice Roberts has issued an "administrative" stay in Abrego Garcia, temporarily pausing Judge Xinis's order (which had required the U.S. to return Abrego Garcia by this evening). In a nutshell, it's a temporary pause to buy the full Court more time to rule on the dispute.
Trump is Roadrunner. Democrats are Wiley E. Coyote. “Beep, Beep.” And Here is How Trump Can Turn Tariffs into Most Popular Grand Slam Home Run in History!
Ok. I'm a teacher. So let me break this down for you into very very simple ideas and numbers.
Let's say you run a sandwich shop. You sell $10 sandwiches. It's a very good sandwich shop. You sell a lot of sandwiches. In fact, I buy a sandwich from you every single day. In a week, I have spent $70 buying sandwiches from you.
Now let's say I am selling my car. You, the owner of the sandwich shop, need a car. I decide to sell you my car for the very very reasonable price of $700.
So here's the situation at the end of a week. You have sold me $70 worth of goods. I have received $70 worth of sandwiches. In return, I have sold you $700 worth of goods, and you have received $700 worth of car.
Any reasonable, rational person would look at that situation and say "that's a fair exchange". Both parties paid an amount of money equal to the value of the goods they now own.
But Trump is not a rational person. What he has decided this means is that you have somehow cheated me out of $630, because $700-$70=$630. Does this make sense? Fuck no. If anything, I got the better part of that deal. I now have $630, plus a belly full of sandwiches.
But it gets even worse. Then, because Trump's a-brain is filled with maggots, he further declares that since $630 divided by $700 is .9, that MUST mean you, the owner of the sandwich shop, have been imposing 90% "sandwich shop tariffs" on me the whole time. Does THIS make a lick of sense either? Also fuck no.
But wait, you're going to love this. Trump's "solution" to this is to decree that going forward, all sandwiches you sell me will be marked up a "reciprocal' 90%, making the total cost for a sandwich $19 instead of $10. He says this will be good for sandwich sales. Does THIS make any goddamn sense either? Jesus fucking Christ on a pogo stick no it fucking does not.
This entire idea is complete horseshit for what I hope you can now see are a whole raft of very very obvious reasons. Among them:
1. There never was a "sandwich shop tariff" to reciprocate 2. There is no rational reason for you to buy a car from me ever again 3. This will not make sandwiches cheaper 4. That's not how numbers work 5. That's not how any of this works
Now replace the car seller with America, and the sandwich shop with an island inhabited only by penguins. I wish I was joking.
There are those of us riding the middle, I come from the former perspective, but seeing the reactions, well the amusement value does make it a temptation.
"I consider myself a military aviation super nerd and I was unaware of this awesome little plane. What a great video.

"2:25 Ah, I spent almost all of 1989 at Keesler AFB in Tech School in the 3803rd STUS. Our squadron was at the SW end of the active runway and my room was on the west side, so I got very familiar with the sound of the T-38 Tweets and the WC-130s taking off and landing all the time. The screech of the Tweet is something you never forget."
Microsoft fires engineers who protested selling AI weapons to the Israeli military
Microsoft software engineer, Vaniya Agrawal wrote that Microsoft is “complicit” as a “digital weapons manufacturer that powers surveillance, apartheid, and genocide,” adding that “by working for this company, we are all complicit.”

furnace seems to be working well and i got my parts wrapped up in stainless steel foil, with a bit of paper inside to scavenge oxygen. with any luck i'll temper them back to ~ 50 rockwell. these parts were way too hard. over 60 rockwell.
i also have to be more careful about how i weld D2 steel cause the heat affected zone becomes brittle. it needs a more precise pre-heat and a post-annealing of the weld so i got an IR thermometer and a ceramic welding blanket to wrap the welded parts in after welding for slow cooling
I unironically believe that a lot of trump supporters (men) want the tariffs to destroy the economy so it's easier to make women financially dependent on them so they can rape them
Schumer was so passionate about imposing 27.5% tariffs on China for its "unfair" trade policy that in 2005 he busted out a nifty chart and partnered with Lindsey Graham, of all people, to try and get it done. What changed Chuck? Why is this a bad thing now?
This is a good time to make contact with your local dairy farmers, get some of that rich raw spring butter, dont make the transaction public though, FDA fucking hates raw dairy, but its the only way. Each year we get 30 pounds of fresh raw spring gold, freeze it up and use year long. Think of your body like its a garden bed. Rich soil, fervent microbes and well hydrated.
You're not going to find an exact 1:1 copy/ rip-off. Pretty sure Framework has a patent on the modularity of their design and China has cracked down on unauthorized copies over the past 15+ years or so.
But what you WILL find are laptops made by the same factories that make the Framework. (I have a Gen 1 I eventually want to get a newer model but my current one is working just fine.)
There's not that many fabricators and manufacturers of PCs and peripherals. 99% of the stuff you buy is just some no-name Chinese brand with Acer or MSI or whatever brand label slapped on it.
toughbooks are the poverty-tier frameworks imo. I just got a 16gb i5 for under 200 usd, almost every part is replaceable, and the community is pretty solid. way different quality for sure, but effective.

They are the "Giving Tree" (that shit book by Shell Silverstein) in action. Respect the roo.
