Possibly different of versions of iOS or customization? It looks not typical, but that could be possible if someone can find examples, not impossible but with the source I would assume the information presented is suspect and intentionally hard to verify at best.

Certainly would need to get someone to dive through more iOS versions to compare, on my devices which are recent updates, I see both of those text notices, I cannot recall what might just say โ€˜text messageโ€™ .

I was just thinking of how it could swing between modes of sending.

Itโ€™s possible for it to switch back and forth, by manually turning off iMessage or, if network connectivity is bad, but you would expect to see failed to send notices, or a iMessage and then a sent SMS for it to now be sending in txt instead of iMessage.

Opinion | Democrats shouldnโ€™t bail out Trump as the shutdown drags on The best time for the opposition to take a stand, rather than settle for untrustworthy promises, is right now.

The White House is blatantly violating the Constitution, ignoring Congressionally-allocated spending. Approving any budget would put a stamp of approval on the end of checks and balances.

It'll hurt, yes, but it's time for opposition. The political costs will mostly fall on the people in charge.

The very first statute authorizing domestic use of the military during domestic emergencies, enacted in 1792 by a Congress full of the same folks who wrote and ratified the Constitution, expressly provided for judicial review in certain circumstances *before* the President could even send troops.

Iโ€™m not saying that in modern times a standing army equals tyranny, this is what they would have said.

A massive security service that can act as secret police for the illegal and cruel and for cameras whims of trump and co is recognizable tyranny.

Update as of 4:30pm

Temporary Restraining Order against the feds has been granted. The judge did not find evidence that the military or the guard need to be brought in because the protests in Portland have been relatively calm.

Aggression is coming from federal agents and right wing provocateurs

He would ask why we have a standing army and a personal guard of the president, they were pretty explicitly against these things because they lead to tyranny.

We have a term for premeditated killing outside out of armed conflict.

That term is murder.

Every single player listed as "questionable" on the injury report did not make the matchday squad. 4-2-3-1 with Smith and Mosquera as fullbacks. Paredes partners Ayala in the midfield. Da Costa starts at the 10 with Velde and Antony on the wings and Kelsy up top. #RCTID

he only sees the world in hierarchies, with most of the world being repulsive and beneath him, Thiel and those who helped build him as a political water-carrier are of course above him, Trump who got the power he wants to inherit, above him, Europeans who are not his ideal of extreme right, below.

Macron remarks are notable- some quotes: "We have been incredibly naive in entrusting our democratic space to social networks that are controlled either by large American entrepreneurs or large Chinese companies, whose interests are not at all the survival or proper functioning of our democracies."

I think that not violating laws and exercising speech is not playing into any hands, the people that want violence against people will like it but more people will see this and dislike the regime more.

just a reminder that bandcamp friday is tomorrow & streaming services are interrupting music streams with ai generated shit, flooding the database with artists that don't exist in any way other than profiting the platform owners

so instead of paying a monthly fee, buy an album or two each month ok
