That’s the ideal.
But I think most people conflate those with agree and disagree.

You’re right this will (or should anyway) invite a major international response. But it won’t be attacking our elections.

It’ll be in international politics and economics.
Were I in charge of another nation, I’d immediately end all diplomatic ties with us. Deporting all US embassy/consolate staff and diplomats. Possibly even visa holders. I’d also end whatever exports my nation made to the US. Buying the goods from my nation’s companies myself. If my nations banks had any money of US nationals, it would be frozen.

But that’s just me. We’ll see what they decide to do.

Lots of people say oil. Even Trump himself says it’s about the oil. Since Trump says oil, it’s a good bet it’s got nothing to do with oil. Remember Trump just says what he wants people to think, he doesn’t care about the truth. And Maduro already promised Trump all the oil he wants at whatever price he wants. So it’s not oil.

I’ve heard a hypothesis suggesting that it’s being pushed by Marko Rubio and a contingent of Cuban Americans (mostly in Florida), who’ve wanted to take down the Cuban government for decades. They view Venezuela as a stepping stone, proof of concept in that direction. It’s a test. A test of both what we can do, and how the world will react. If it goes well, Cuba will be next soon.

That idea sounds actually plausible to me.

Among other things

November 6th 1988
Nothing special about they day really. It’s just happened to be the day when the Legrand Poumpaugh themselves decreed as such. Glory be their nostrals.

it’s a giftcard

It’s got nothing to do with age. As you pointed out there are financial reasons where you might not be able to. But that’s realy the only hurdle. And there are plenty of ways to clear it.

Seth MacFarlane (Yes, that Seth MacFarlane) has a pair of Christmas Albums, with classic non-religious Christmas songs.

Not when it gives you a false sense of security.

Your privacy is compromised eithor way. That’s the point. You just don’t want it to be so obvious. Like putting a spare key under the welcome mat at your door, that’s a bad idea.

Because people don’t pay attention to signs.
You knowing people can easily see everything you’ve posted, effects your behavior here, far more than any banner you’d also complain about having to click past every time.

Yes. The later makes very clear to everyone, they don’t have any privacy here.
My point is, that’s a good thing.

As a finical instrument for investing it’s fine. Makes total sense to have some of your money in gold.
As you describe, being a part of a prepping plan for the end of the world. It’s really dumb, and a total scam.

Install has gone fine.
Having trouble getting OpenRGB working. Might just have to turn off lights in BIOS for now.

And I’m also a hobby photog. Lightroom and Photoshop. I’ve tried Darktable and GIMP on Windows before. As much as I complain about Adobe, they’re still miles ahead of the OSS alternatives.

Thank you. My only real concern point now is running Adobe stuff in a VM. Other than that I think I’m good to go.

I’m into Star Trek, and all set to switch to Linux this weekend!

And it’s always 42. No matter what, or when, or how.

Perhaps some day, if someone understands the galactic economy well enough to explain why it’s always 42 money, we’ll be able to stop fighting and arguing with each other long enough to come together united for once. And share in the beating of that smug smart ass who thinks they know everything.

I imagine it’s about trying to minimize the alcohol smell.
But I don’t realy know.

Do you have sources you can cite?
In English if possible. Though I’ll understand if not, and make due with what you have.

I think you have missed what they were really asking.
