Mail services are, in my opinion, a worthwhile endeavour. People in remote parts of the country deserve to be able to get their bills on paper too.

I really liked the idea I saw in some interview where Mail Services could be switched up to being ‘Federal Services’ or Community Services…

We have all these buildings,

Why can’t they be Passport Services, Taxes Services,… I even liked the idea that Mail Carriers could be wellness checkers.

Need something notarized? Need to do a proof of identity? Photo taken, Etc. Pay them well, Train them well, Make them more than just dropping of a letter. Expand them to be more than that.

Keep the hard earned infrastructure, and adapt it.

I’ve owned the first gen Steam Deck since the day it came out. (LCD)

No problems, greatly enjoy it.

Isn’t it too late?

All the latest battery tech has or is moving away from cobalt

Yes, the title and article is.

spokesman for Russian President Vladimir President has said.

Sounds like a trusty news source…

• “What’s your opinion and position on said topic?”

• “Whatever is currently opposite of the other guy!”

I started up Reddits functional print many years ago to serve as a gallery/showcase to inspire others that 3D printing has a lot of useful uses.

I left Reddit with the Exodus, but I believe it still exists, although it’s probably bot filled garbage now.

But it had a huge list of useful things.

I have a similar thead here on the fediverse, but the original site (kbin.social) died out and I haven’t bothered to get another going.

Looks like there’s a lot of overlap…

Anon works for my company? Because they did exactly this with the same excuse.

I said this to the wife the other day. 5G? fuck that… just give me reliable 3G…

I’d much rather watch something smooth and uninterrupted at 720p than 4k interrupted/stuttering/buffering.

About time they started focusing on reliability instead of throughput.

Ridiculous on their part.

With crypto going more and more mainstream, it won’t be long before another payment system shows up and starts competing against Visa/MC and Paypal.

They are opening up a lane for a competitor to fill a fairly large gap.

WTF? So your country bitches out illegal immigrants, and yet gives them an official way for them to work in your country via ITINs?

Immigrants who do not have a valid visa or other proof of legal status are not eligible for an SSN.

So if you do not have a valid work visa or proof of legal status, why would you be allowed to work and why would ITIN’s exist at all?

Yeah, but those consequences are a direct result of poor infrastructure to facilitate the technology. Not the technology itself.

The consequences are more about these light motorized vehicles interacting with either cars/trucks meant to go faster and be larger, or interacting with pedestrians or non-motorized devices.

If they had their own dedicated pavement like the other two, most(not all) of those ‘consequences’ disappear.

The problem is infrastructure.

We have pavement for trucks/cars at >30km/h… We have pavement for pedestrians <5km/h

What we lack is the dedicated pavement for the stuff in between.

Regulating these light-motorized devices to be banned on the other two has been the real issue of acceptance and adoption of the tech.

I mean, yeah… sales taxes make sense,

“Most have income and payroll taxes deducted”

But HOW?! like the employer takes off % money, they need like an SIN # or something to tie it to. So what does the employer do?

I don’t see how any undocumented pays ‘income’ tax… other than the employer either doesn’t deduct it, or does and just pockets it.

But, how does that work?

You remove it from their paychecks under what ###?

When the employer goes to send in that $$$ to the IRS, what does the IRS put it towards? Don’t the ask, ‘Who is this for?’, what does the employer tell them?

How does an illegal immigrant pay income taxes?

We want to reduce traffic and oil consumption and can’t figure why people buy larger vehicles in North America?

number of fatal traffic accidents

Yeah, the issue isn’t the light motorcycles/mopeds/etc…

So dude is right, a whole class of vehicle is being being held back by regulation, and the premise/reason is ridiculous for a society that would like to see less cars on the road.

And David Copperfield!

I’m a long time supporter of Flayra.

I paid the $20 for the development of Natural Selection 2, before kickstarter or Early Access idea ever existed.

He delivered on it, and again with Subnautica when I day 1 purchased Early Access to it.

Fuck Krafton.
