Yeah, the same guy who killed two American citizens in Pakistan with no due process. The one that accepted a transparency award in a CLOSED meeting. The president that didn't close gitmo. The one that expanded our wars to six countries. And remember how George Bush was spying on Americans by listening in on that fiber optic cable coming into the ATT center in California and how Obama stopped all of that? Oh, right he didn't. In fact I believe it's still going on. And Obama care, what a great idea. Force people to buy health insurance. What a great idea. So great the heritage foundation came up with it, you know the people who brought you Project 2025. People seem to think that just because he wasn't Bush or Trump, he was great. I think they can all be shit.
Uh, I'm sorry but power companies were just granted permission to raise rates in Florida over the next 4 years. It's been described by at least one news organization as the largest increase in US history. Prompted me to go solar. I could have sworn the article said part of it was for infrastructure build out.
Thanks. Also WTF? Yeah he confronts them in the dumbest possible way.
EDIT:
Wait! Your didn't have to read far. The article actually says Not A Chance Hormuz Opens. I was wondering why you were down voted for summarizing.
If I insult you in a friendly manner, you are a good friend of mine. I would never insult someone like that that I didn't like.
Example: I play disc golf. Par is usually three. I was playing with my friends and a new guy. I wasn't having a very good day and told the new guy, "In case you haven't noticed, four is my favorite number." And my buddy said, "And six is his second favorite number." I thought that was hilarious because he is a friend. If he didn't like me, it could have come across as passive aggressive. It is this context to which I'm referring.
That said, I do have another friend who almost only insults and it does get old.
I have foot problems that make it painful to walk barefoot for more than about 5 minutes. Less on hard surfaces. More on soft ones. So I have flip flops I use inside and regular shoes for outside. So a different reason, but I do get what you're saying.
Two right now. One is a Kobo e-reader. The other is a bone conduction headset. The latter allows me to ride my bike with my tunes but allows me to hear traffic and other environmental hazards. Very comfortable to wear too.
Not sure if it qualifies as tech, but a hybrid water heater. Was twice as expensive, sometimes provided only luke warm water and finally the compressor gave out prematurely. Should have just bought a normal one.
I jail broke mine and I still sometimes buy books from Amazon. It's a gen 10 device so it will be unsupported in the NEXT round. I wish I had thought to keep it offline back when I bought it because it is sluggish as hell and I really liked it when I bought it years ago. Recently, I thought it died when it stopped responding so I bought a Kobo and I've been pretty happy with it. I hate all the rubbish DRM crap.
I do have actual books I like to read, but I need a light which keeps my wife up at night so the backlight turned way down works better.
My least favorite is, "where do you see yourself in 5 years?"
"Ummm, getting your job after I push you in front of a train for asking me this stupid question."
