In the US at least, the only thing that registering for a political party lets you do is vote in their primaries (in some states. In the rest of the states, it doesn’t matter at all).

The question they’re trying to ask is: In your country, how much of the government does organized crime own?
I personally don’t care whether vaping is worse for the person doing it than smoking. The thing I do care about is that vaping affects other people much less than smoking does.

That is fairly surprising given the reliability statistics on those things.
But fishing doesn’t cost absurd amounts of money.

I personally don’t mind vaping, since many smokers switched to vaping and people who vape don’t emit a passive aura of stench.
Not if you were using SMS, but it automatically upgraded connections to secure chats if both people had signal.
Yes, but their communications with me and each other were secure, which is a lot better than they’re doing now.
If only you could also text from the Signal App. I used to have multiple signal contacts, but every single one of them dropped it when they dropped SMS support.

Didn’t the admins just ban any mods who kept their subreddit up like that after the three weeks?
So… Normal Windows 11? By default, it is impossible (at least, without using the terminal) to set up a new windows 11 computer with a local account.

I’d either go a few decades in the past or several centuries in the future, depending on how adventurous I’m feeling at the time.
going 30 years into the past puts me in the mid 90s. Recent enough to have technology levels that I could live with and to remember what companies to invest in, but far enough back for non-digital identity records to be a thing, so it would still be possible (albeit difficult) to create an identity.
Skipping forward by 500+ years would also be really interesting. Changing technology would make that world nearly unrecognizable from anything we know today, and I’m hopeful for the far future, if not the near future.

Batman and Stark both have significant physics bending powers. It’s more obvious with Stark, but both of them have made plenty of things that have bend the laws of physics pretty drastically.
Hey, at least the taxes for the manufacturers were lower because they doubled the size of the vehicle (which drastically reduced the required emission standards due to the unique way the U.S. emissions laws are written).
