If you cut taxes on the rich it will benefit everyone.

It’s apparently good at 100% at classifying autism in groups that have already been flagged for high chance of ASD. It is not good at just any old picture.

Lawyer here: this isn’t necessarily correct and in America it’s state dependent. There are absolutely parts of the law you can waive, including negligence of a party which is likely your bungee jumping scenario with the rope snapping.

Former Texan here: slavery is why that exists. They ceded the land so they could enter the union as a slave state.

It is unfortunately such a PITA to self host. Spent hours a few weeks ago trying to set it up and failed.

It appears that some are sorted alphabetically, and some are sorted by date subscribed. That's annoying when trying to find a specific community. Any pointers? Thanks!

Edit: Specifically in the browser UI

Edit 2: Apparently they are alphabetically sorted, but all the capitalized communities are first like this:

"Apple, Banana, Zebra, apples, boing, zoo" I am trying to get to "Apple, apples, Banana, boing etc."

Lawyer here; it's almost certainly unconstitutional but it's a political tactic used to garner votes from ultra-conservatives. It doesn't have to win in court, it just has to make a splashy headline now, which his base will see, and then the base won't see the court losses months later.

That’s part of the problem; but, increasing tax rates (income, capital gains, depreciation recapture, 1031 exchanges etc) is needed even more than enforcement of existing. You’d be surprised how much of what the rich do to reduce their tax burden is perfectly legal and IRS enforcement would just be an annoyance.

Tax all billionaires more?

So, I'm a returning F1 fan; I watched a bunch when Schumacher was on his streak. And then didn't get back into it until 2020 (pandemic boredom maybe?).

What I haven't done is seen a lot of classic races; I've seen footage here and there. I watched the Senna documentary. But I haven't seen many of the "Best of" races. I was hoping some of the long-time fans would post their favorite 10 races to recommend that a fan watch for the first time. So no spoilers please.

I hadn't checked in on this /c/ in a while; it has a bunch of great stuff! Thanks for posting! I have a few panoramic shots I took that I need to crop into ultrawides; I'll post them up.

I recently got a 32:9 monitor (which I love). But definitely need some wallpapers.
