she/her just trying to live the ancom dream in the mountains

Puerto Rico citizens have US passports...

So, veteran here. I've tried to talk people out of joining the military or at least trying to avoid jobs with high probability of seeing combat. Usually the result is they just start prying about what combat is like and make statements about how much they want to experience it.

Another tack I haven't tried but it might be more effective, is to describe how miserable it is to have the stench of a burn pit wafting over you, always wondering if the distant gunfire will move in your direction, being stuck manning a 24/7 watch where if even one person who can do that job dies or is otherwise incapacitated you will be stuck doing 12hr shifts instead of 8. Then you get back home and have to fight tooth and nail for benefits from the country that fucked your life up in the first place.

War is hell, coming home is hell, forcing that on someone can only be justified if they are literally at home fighting off an invading force.

The best kind next to feta

Let's gooo, some good news

Meat chickens are called broilers, and egg chickens are called layers. Since they have been selectively bred for each specific purpose

Become a trapdoor spider, and leave a basket of Bed Bath and Beyond gift cards outside your door as bait?

Step two say ????? No idea what really. Maybe cross your fingers you have a shared interest and the whole kidnapping thing isn't a big deal.

Step three be in a relationship, and probably learn to leave room more often.

Baba is you, great little puzzle game

Well shit, guess Harris is only real option at this point. I hate this countries electoral system

I'd guess they did, but I have no way to prove it. Let's build some and find out.

I probably would have bought Bionicles, still sad they got discontinued

Wait, are you trying to tell me the moon landing was real? It was clearly filmed in Siberia why else would the ground look so white, it's the Siberian snow obviously.

Not always, I'll often forget to shower until I look in the mirror and realize my hair needs to be washed. Peak pandemic I'd sometimes go a few weeks without showering until I could smell myself. Just not something that's on my mind most of the time.

Have you considered switching to Matrix or Signal over Discord?

conduwuit, a matrix home server it is so much faster and works so much better than the Dendriter server it replaced.

I'll take better over perfect especially since better is on the ballot as an option this year for me, but who knows might try to get approval voting on the ballot for next time

Yes rates are used most of the time in forms of address. However you do have a rank, for example E-5 or Petty Officer Second Class. However when addressing enlisted you'd usually say something like CTM2, IT2 etc... Until you hit chief then you are just called Chief, or senior if you are a Senior Chief, Master Chief doesn't get abbreviated to Master for obvious reasons, and MCPON is usually referred to as "mic pon" phonetically for Master Chief Petty Officer of the Navy.

Oh yeah, and the lore rabbit hole gets deep, read most of the comics and books, it was really cool as a whole universe with supporting toys.

The most protected gang in the US

I agree, only sensible way to do it

I blame the cigars

Who cares if they are trans? The more interesting question is what would make women generally more likely to self host? More free time? Different applications? Actually having a job in IT? Being single?

My instance is pretty fast. Run Conduwuit as the server, problem solved

I'm very much onboard with this. Idk if I'd say it's the libraries job though, I think it should be at the city level for community instances.

MTLS is for transport layer security, not authentication security. This is closer to those RSA keys where there is an RSA server keeping track of all the fobs that can be queried to figure out what number they are currently showing. Acting as a something you have factor of authentication, proving you are who you say you are.

Some apartments double nat

I mean technically the federal reserve is a ponzi scheme they charge interest on money printed requiring more money to be paid back than they printed. Ergo there isn't enough print money in existence to pay them back.

They do, it's not cheap, like $50

Depending on your general philosophy, and how you value various issues, anything could be a selling point to someone. It's hardly a lost plot, a lot of people value the great equalizer. "God made man, Samuel Colt made man equal" -dunno who said it

I actually really enjoyed the Eldritch horror storyline. Though overall it's a somewhat forgettable story. Still better than Pre-Sequel in my mind. But I'm the odd one out I know

I always like to jump ship to open source projects, I ditched Facebook back in like 2010 for Disaspora and Frendica. Once I found out about Lemmy it was just a matter of time before I jumped ship, because that's just how I roll.

Well in Florida open Cary is illegal unless engaging in lawful hunting and fishing activities. Lots of little caveats like that all over the US

What's wrong with their encryption?

Matrix is the way to go

I'm the main character, obviously, why else would the sun revolve around the earth? Purely to honor me the main character, reincarnated in this dying world to save it from the demon lord known as See Oh Too, and its generals Shell, BP, and Chevron. /S

Was Navy can confirm, many orgies

Actually the supreme Court is an appointed for life position so unless it gets stuffed again, it can only be changed when justices die or leave voluntarily. Ergo it's literally unfixable by the common citizen unless revolution is on the table.

Why go on a planet wrecking cruise? If your going to enjoy the ocean, enjoy it, take a sailboat

So find some identification for yourself, there will be a field for birth date. In that field there should be a four digit number. Subtract that number from 2024, and viola that number is how old you have become.
