LOL! "Gets mad"? More than he already is???
Despite desperately begging all his misled base: Not even one quarter of the American population voted for Guinness candidate record liar, convicted rapist & convicted felon — despite massive voter suppression by the anti-Lincoln fake "Republicans".

It's funny when you only watch short sections of it, the whole film in one sitting becomes kind of a redundant #SouthPark overload.
I tried to watch it; it’s humorous, but not a good movie.

Ephedra sinica;
Ephedra sinica is a specific variety of Ephedra that produces adequate enough ammounts of a phytochemical called ephedrine for it to be worth while. It's native habitat is in China, where it has been used for thousands of years as a recreational drug and medicine. It's a stimulant. It's used for respiratory ailments, as it helps to open up the lungs, and with breathing. Pharmaceutical companies process large quantities of the dried plant material, hints why there's so much sabotage going on in the ethnobotanical industry. The ethnobotanical industry and academia are directly related to one another. A lot of people think it's a bunch of hippies selling drugs, but it is a critical industry because it directly competes with big pharmaceutical companies interest.

Incredible essay about the importance and challenges of digital archival by Maxwell Neely-Cohen, as well as the various imperfect strategies to achieve “century-scale” digital archives.

"We picked a century scale because most physical objects can survive 100 years in good care. It is attainable, and yet we selected it because the design of mainstream digital storage mediums are nowhere close to even considering this mark."

I know it’s a broad question, but I currently have T-Mobile and the price is alright but I have an iPhone 11 and looking to get a 16 Pro Max for myself and a 16 Pro. But, T-Mobile has mentioned it will mean an increase in my plan from $89 a month, for my current 2 iPhone 11’s and 2 Apple watches, to $180 monthly for 5G.
But, I’m getting older, so less deal savvy, not to mention aware of all the current cellphone carriers or what’s a deal these days… I would appreciate if anyone here could share their thoughts or recommendations on the matter. Seeing in the past, theres a large pool of wisdom hidden in here. TIA.
We are with T-Mobile because we are still getting the same price for years, and the service is good where we live. We buy phones outside of the plan, and they either can be activated as is or sometimes they have to send a sim card.
The increase they predict for you is the payment for the devices, yes? Not the plan cost? Additional $90 a month for how long?

For me, success is simple: I want to make a living without being at the mercy of another person’s whims.
I cannot be fired or laid off. No one is writing a performance review on me. I don’t have to fit into an organization’s culture.
Most importantly, if someone emails my “boss” because they’re unhappy about something I said on social media, it doesn’t matter—my “boss” (that is, me) agrees with everything I say.
Curious to hear what people do, now that "the internet" doesn't work.
Vanaf 18:00 al begrijp ik. En nog steeds zo te zien metastatus.com/
Ik had er niets van gemerkt maar ben wel altijd geïnteresseerd wat er nu precies fout ging. Het zal wel weer DNS zijn gok ik.
Maar wel knap dat het dan zolang moet duren om het op te lossen… systeembeheer tools ook kapot? Dan maar op de fiets naar die servers toe zou ik zeggen. 🤣

@Fubaroque Ik heb er ook niks van gemerkt, ik gebruik geen van die producten.
Dikke kans dat het DNS was, het is tenslotte altijd een DNS-probleem 😂
Do not try to be Steve Jobs. Or, for that matter, Bill Gates or Jeff Bezos or Elon Musk.
Do not try and make their habits your habits. You are not them. They are not you. Your life is your own.
Instead, ask yourself, “What do I, personally, see as success? And what does this look like for my life?”
“How Lebanon's resistance defied Israeli dominance, again”
by Mohamad Hasan Sweidan in The Cradle
“Hezbollah’s ability to stretch Israeli forces across multiple fronts, disrupt strategic timelines, and endure overwhelming power disparities showcases how #asymmetric #warfare is ultimately about resilience – shifting a powerful opponent's offensive into a costly, prolonged struggle.”

If you’re successful at being self-employed, it likely isn’t exciting.
Despite the narratives about “riding the rocket ship,” excitement is not a good forward-looking sign.
Rather, success is boring. It is boring because it’s predictable, repeatable, and sustainable. In other words, boring is good.
@EdenLinnea Thanks, but I’m talking about “boring” from a financial perspective.
As a court reporter, I suspect you’ve encountered a few “exciting” jobs that resulted in a prison sentence.
