    Sovcits think their passport has a built-in sudo password that lets them have access to all amenities while also not being bound to any state restrictions. They base their belief on Article 4 of the Confederate Constitution which reads

    ::: spoiler Article 4 Confederate Constitution The better to secure and perpetuate mutual friendship and intercourse among the people of the different states in this union, the free inhabitants of each of these states, paupers, vagabonds and fugitives from Justice excepted, shall be entitled to all privileges and immunities of free citizens in the several states; and the people of each state shall have free ingress and regress to and from any other state, and shall enjoy therein all the privileges of trade and commerce, subject to the same duties, impositions and restrictions as the inhabitants thereof respectively, provided that such restrictions shall not extend so far as to prevent the removal of property imported into any state, to any other State of which the Owner is an inhabitant; provided also that no imposition, duties or restriction shall be laid by any state, on the property of the united states, or either of them. :::

    This is where they are getting the idea of "right for travel" and why they are never driving, just "moving their car" and why they don't recognize being a citizen of any state. Let's pretend that this article was not abolished with the defeat of the Confederacy and was still in effect. Do you see the glaring issue here? If you said that they wouldn't be eligible to that right of travel under that article since they are not a citizen of any state and thus it does not apply to them, you would be correct. Back then, they would be considered vagabonds, so they would have been exempt from all the rights granted by that article.

    I think what they meant with "run the passport number" is that they anticipated a fine/ticket and wanted to pay that fine. They believe that each citizen gets a million dollars deposited on their person in a bond from the US Treasury. They cannot personally access these funds, but when they have to pay anything for any reason they can just say that they "accept for value" and the Treasury will have to begrudgingly pay the difference out of the sovcit's personal bond. Let's play pretend again and accept that this bond exists. Why the Treasury would have a bond for an entity that is NOT a citizen of the United States is beyond me.

    Qe7 still runs into Nxe6 and black can't take back because e6 is attacked too many times. As suggested above Nf6 is the most sensible response after c4, black needs that knight to defend.

    c4 Nxb4 c5 Qe7 h4 Na6

    After c5 Qe7

    Nxe6 and it's hard to find a response. Not taking the knight sacrifices the exchange of a rook for a knight and taking the knight runs into an infiltrating rook while also losing the b4 knight. I don't think Nxb4 is a move honestly.

    C4 nb4 -> black queen also threatens b4

    C5 Qe5

    Rxe5 ... black resigns because they lost a queen for nothing.

    I really don't think black can take on b4 after the c4 push. c5 cuts the support and now the queen is threatened and has to move which will result in e6 (attacked 3 times) falling or black's queen being hunted.

    The reason why it's good when reheated is the moisture in the pineapple. It keeps the dough from becoming a rock formation when reheating.

    For non-pineapple pizza, adding a bowl of water into the microwave has the same effect.

    That said, the argument is not whether pineapple is good on pizza or not, ofc it is, everything is good on pizza. But is it the best topping? No, that's anchovies and capers (olives are good too).

    The big problem China faced and why the one-child policy was abandoned after all is that there was a staunch focus on having a male child to "keep the bloodline alive" (cultural reasoning) which led to a stagnation in the 0-14 years age group due to an overpopulation with males. This is not fixed by killing off your elderly.

    Covid was most deadly for the age group of 65 and above and in 2019, they had proportionally less people aged 65+ than the US (13.50% in China vs. 16.4% in the US). Either China's scientists failed immensely or the virus stemmed from bad hygiene practices in livestock markets selling bats.

    Im Germany, we have an extra word for the (US) first floor: Erdgeschoss. That's why our (US) second floor is labeled 1. Would be weird to skip it.

    Main entrance determines the position of the ground floor. If your basement leads to a backyard that leads to another street, it's just a basement access.

    Unless you declare the basement entrance to be the main entrance, then the initial ground level entrance is not on the ground floor anymore. So it's pretty much up to your discretion how you handle it.

    This community, under the guise of Christianity and discussion thereof, is just a place filled with conspiracy theories and hatred. Exhibit [1](https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/20223391): Bigoted, trans- and homophobic video. The comment section shows heavy mod abuse. Exhibits [2](https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/20468319) and [3](https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/20428156): Conspiracy theory. Again comment section is heavily "moderated". All of those posts are mod-posts because the community locked for non-moderators to create posts in. Is this really the kind of community that tchncs wants to foster?

    Often getting comments failing to load (both on mobile app and desktop)

    Hey, I'm noticing that I get many broken comment chains and comments failing to load. Is that just for me or does anybody else experience issues. I guess, it started when I was updating the mail address linked to this account a couple weeks back. The token I got with the email to verify my address was rejected (Invalid token) and since then, I'm having issues. My settings show the correct email and I cannot send a new token to verify (it says nothing about verification status). It was, probably incidentally, at the evening of when the lemmy update got installed onto this instance, so maybe I've chosen a bad time for the mail change. [Here is a thread](https://discuss.tchncs.de/post/9369514) that showcases my problem: Logged out: ![](https://discuss.tchncs.de/pictrs/image/8e12dc6e-8220-497c-bdef-e3c699d08716.png) Logged in: ![](https://discuss.tchncs.de/pictrs/image/7e0db3a7-ecdd-4263-9522-1c9b91602687.png) (Clicking on more comments does nothing) Maybe someone knows what's wrong. Thanks in advance!
