I would start to suspect my employers of bank robbery.

But Paxton will appeal to the Texas Supreme Court which, being full of Republican sycophants, will give him the ruling he wants.

That at the end, was that a fully overclocked Mk3 miner outputting at full speed?

My dad tried treating his cancer with naturopathic remedies. They, uh, weren’t doing anything. Then he had a stroke and was confined to the hospital for months. The hospital, naturally, gave him real treatments for cancer. He died about a year later, but his last test showed no cancer markers.

If I didn’t already own my house, I couldn’t afford to buy it.

The only way to stop a dumb guy with a gun is a good dumpster with a gun

Organize, O toilers, come organize your might;
Then we’ll sing one song of the workers’ commonwealth
Full of beauty, full of love and health.

I’ve seen an elderly man working at the HEB I frequent. He looks frail. I wouldn’t want to be bagging groceries at his age.

Remember, it’s also cops (not exactly the same cops, but cops nonetheless) who campaign for encryption backdoors so that civilians can’t hide illegal activities from police surveillance.

Have you shopped eBay for used switches?

Rule of Acquisition #91: Your boss is only worth what he pays you

You MUST have a battery for your solar panels to be of any use during a grid outage. When I got panels installed in 2020, I paid $24,500. A whole-house battery would have been almost as much again. I skipped the battery because, at the time, I was not particularly concerned about grid reliability.

The left hand knows exactly what the right hand is doing.

I have a power bank and foldable solar panels. That provided enough power to keep my refrigerator running.

I also have an EcoFlow Wave2 portable air conditioner that I was able to partially charge with solar. The AC function uses too much energy, but it can also operate as just a fan, in which mode the battery will last for days and days. Having the fan on me helped a lot.

I only got power back yesterday evening.

Watch as the Texas Supreme Court reverses this and gives Paxton whatever he wants. They don’t even pretend to be unbiased.

Small enough to fit in a woman’s vagina

Perhaps you missed the sarcasm of “spread democracy”. I was referring to the United States’ history of invading or meddling in countries with oil. I don’t know why you think ownership is any obstacle to possession.

Try systemctl --user restart pipewire pipewire-pulse

Texas would find itself a majority brown-skinned country with oil. You know, the kind of country the United States loves to “spread democracy” to.
