"Dad, what launched the IMF sanctions against Estonia and Poland?"
I don't know who this is, or what law he's talking about, but it got my jury-nullification gland pumping.
I also suspect we have to shake off fiat before kardashev.
It's a cancer on prosperity and human flourishing.
If you're comfortable with legit Photoshop you'll probably hate the unfamiliar UX.
As a free, open source solution, I "grew up" on it.
Still probably don't use it to it's potential.
That's a nope for me.
What could POSSIBLY go wrong? π€·

When I go manual/computer, I rock GIMP still.
But not for quick memes.
Didn't realize they added that functionality.
Been out of that too long.
Love remove.BG
MUCH faster than manually masking and isolating.
Nobody got time for that shit.
Austerity measures are never popular, won't happen.
I would gladly opt out of SS though.
If it were to still miraculously be solvent when I'm supposed to retire, I'd likely have to live until 300+ years old to get my money back.
Sorry you lost a customer over an opinion.
Hot take or not, that's sad to hear.
Can't say you're wrong either. It was a ponzi scheme from the start, and it's only got a suitcase full of IOUs like Dumb and Dumber.
Shitposters know.
The struggle is real.
"How about a nice bowl of fake PNG?"

I'm case you didn't see her crawl out of the dark cave.

Ordered a pair of Merrell to see how they feel.
Had good luck with a summer pair about a decade ago. Good toe box for me.
Will upgrade from there. Danner on my shortlist.
Thanks again.
Thanks. π
I'll definitely look into it.
I'm desperate enough to see if my old combat boots still fit as a stop-gap.
Back to Footwear
Day 205 of rucking a mile or more a day.
Final day in my 7-day heavy cycle.
Footwear came front and center again today.
We started getting snow accumulation, and despite my route being along a road, it's not well plowed this yearly in the season. Icy/snowy/wet.
So I switched from shoes to boots. That don't fit me well.
The line between top and bottom (waterproof) cut deep into my ankle.
By my short halfway mark I was limping, then shuffling to change the rub point.
Socks, shoes, SOMETHING has to change for tomorrow. I don't want wet feet OR bloody ankles.
Per the suggestion of nostr:npub1mc20uche0cy599vpl850aschpu7wteundgsnf0msep79lu3fu5aq3r4ptv:
This classic.

Okay, started the community.
Always up for other content contributors or admins.
TLC was lit. Even more so when you sing it right.

That's a pretty big "what if."
They didn't even bother to refinance their debt when rates were low.
But I love the thought experiment.
