technology Technology Trump Turns Bitcoin Into Test of Patriotism

    Once again Trump proves himself to be a mere opportunist and grifter without principles or convictions. While in office Steven Mnuchin tried to kill crypto at the behest of the banking industry and Trump was vocal against Bitcoin. Once he left the White House he peddled his own NFTs.

    The biggest irony is, even as PM claims that none of their money goes to "woke", PM is a MVNO, which means it merely resells services from a "woke" big mobile company (I think it's T-Mobile in this case). So indirectly PM funnels money to T-Mobile, which then might donate some money to "woke" non-profits.

    What puzzles me is that many IALs/conlangs based on the Romance languages (Interlingua, Elefen, etc.) insist on having a definite article (either la or le) when it could as well be dropped.

    Just so everyone knows, the link redirects to plantbasedcookbook.com, which is just a "sales funnel" page. Clicking on the OP's link ("clickbank") is so that OP makes money. In other words: spam.

    "to Postal Customer" mailers can be sent to specific ZIP Codes so it may not have gone to, for example, 97239.

    It may just be because Lotería is a game that primarily appeals to the Spanish-speaking population? And maybe the mailer was sent to ZIP codes with a high Latino presence? It's just about doing a targeted outreach.

    Here's a booth at last week's ¡Viva Tualatin! festival - since the event was geared toward the local Latino community everything is written in Spanish first.

    Jesus didn't invent Christianity tho, it's Paul who laid the foundation and ultimately, Constantine made Christianity into a religion we know today.

    Not providing software support for more than three or so years, is a planned obsolescence and should be made illegal.

    Even better, consumers should be able to easily install alternative operating systems on old smartphones, just like one can install Bodhi Linux on a 15-year-old laptop.

    Nothing is blocked in the United States and certainly, you don't have to use a VPN to use SDF.
