I discovered so much electronic music from Napster that I never would have found otherwise - no one I knew knew anything about the genre. I found Tiesto in like 1998 and was a huge fan - I was able to see him in a small club in SLC (Axis) in 2001 with like maybe 300 people. 😎

Now that you mention it, I kind of wish I had a cd player in my car, I've got some banger CDs that need to get played again.

I have i think 3 48 CD case logics full of CDs that I burned from Napster and then I probably burned nearly that many copies again of albums either to or from friends. Plus some photo CDs and a couple video CDs So I would say about 271. You?

They always have trillions of dollars for illegal wars in the Mideast, but SCOFF in your face and clutch their pearls when you ask for universal healthcare. You are all being played.

GD reactionaries. All their ideas boil down to "break stuff," and "undo stuff," to go backwards in time. No big ideas to make the future better and more sustainable.

Seems biased to me to only review the signatures that were *rejected.* with that method, they can only *add* votes.

Lawsuit?

If they're going to review signatures, they should review ALL signatures.

8 signatures shy: Push to repeal Prop 4 appears in peril as final signatures are counted The Republican push to repeal Prop 4 and restore the Legislature's power to gerrymander political districts is on thin ice, but signature counting continues.

Hold up, if there are just 8 more signatures needed, and three more signature packets left to count, doesn't that mean they are pretty likely to meet the threshold? Or is it unlikely because they still have a stack of requests for removals to go through?

MAGA get their panties in a bunch over 60B worth of (older) weapons to Ukraine to help them defend against the Russian Invasion, yet Trump gives 40 billion cash to Argentina to help Milei and they dont make a peep. πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

Now why would the FIFA World Peace Prize winner who "ended 8 wars" and ran on a platform of "preventing world war 3," just make stuff up to bomb another Middle Eastern country?

If MAGA thought 60 billion to Ukraine was expensive, wait till you see the bill for Iran. Iraq (Bush) was 2 Trillion...

Your next of kin will really appreciate it though, that's generational wealth.

This is my strategy. Just do it at a local runners track. It'd be a little bit tough staying up for 24 hours or close to it, but I've done it a handful of times before - cramming for a test or finishing a project before a deadline. πŸ˜… For 50 mil, it would be extra easy.

I stay up for 24 hours and eat 1 taco, drink 1 beer, and walk 2 laps around a running track each hour? For 50 Mil? No sweat. I'll do this for 50K if someone's buying.

I like it with the blue shoulders here. Kind of a basic non-descript handsome and not overdone amalgamation of the everyday gundam. Has some Titans/MK-II in it as well to me. Looks good πŸ‘

Weird they dragged in Hillary Clinton when there's another First Lady right there in the White House who actually knew Jeffrey Epstein.

Except Trump doesn't give a shit about what the courts say and he controls the DOJ and the military. So unless the judges are ready to lock-and-load themselves, we're in big trouble.

Seems as good as place as any to tell the good people that I saw this bumper sticker the other day and it made me smile.

This thread was better than I expected! (And as a casual, I didnt know and had never considered Wayne re: Gotham Social Services).

As we know, there's ways to make it work for almost anyone, even the author, but there's ideal situations and less than ideal situations. A home with a garage space is ideal, and workplaces providing cheap or free chargers helps too. We're fortunate to have both. Now if I can get solar even better.

This is for an 84 kW battery, so definitely not apples to oranges.

We did level 1 for almost a year. But we have an attached garage with an outlet and only a 9 mile commute. We could get it charged up enough for a road trip on weekends, but that was in our ideal situation.

Now with level 2, we can full charge in just a couple hours every few days. Certainly easier
