The SC said states should be able to decide because there was no federal legislation one way or the other. Once a federal ban is in place, the states will lose the ability to decide for themselves.

If you choose not to decide (or vote) you still have made a choice. Biden voters who refused to vote Harris chose to let the rest of the country decide for them. They will be worse off for it. Hopefully they learn from this but I doubt it.

Four years ago you couldn’t buy toilet paper. Are some people worse off than under Trump 1.0? Of course. Is more than half the country worse off? Fuck no. People have goldfish memories and Dems did a terrible job touting their wins that did make Americans better off under Biden.

Start with your local library. Mine lends tens of thousands of ebooks. It also has partnerships with other local libraries in the region that allow me to borrow from their collections as well.

I don’t think there is such a thing as inter-library loans for ebooks but you should be able to borrow from pretty much any library in the country if you are willing to wait for a paper copy to be shipped to your local branch. There may or may not be a fee associated with this but my local library allows me ten ILL requests a year for free.

Libraries are such an underrated and underutilized resource.

It can clock up to 3.7 GHz and has a decent GPU for an Intel one. All I can say for sure is that it keeps up just fine.

I have an N100 box running as my Plex server. It has no problem transcoding multiple 4k videos at once. This processor is no M2 but it isn’t really a slouch either.

Almost certainly not since the keyboard is $110 add-on. It is not included by default.

I liked the finale of Pitch Perfect. Not sure that really counts as a cover though.

Maoism <> Marxism.

So, yes, you are off-topic.

Not an accountant, but maybe they have expense them differently or across a different time frame depending on utilization.
