They need drones that shoot fireworks!
They need drones that shoot fireworks!
I live in a city that has criminalized all fireworks, including pop-its. We’re talking arrest and jail time are on the table just for transporting them in your car through city limits (I’m sure this violates the Commerce Clause).
However, drugs are legal. I love their priorities.
Oh, and cutting down or trimming trees on your property is illegal without a permit. My neighbor was hit by a $10,000 fine because the street tree died and they didn’t pull a permit for it.
Exactly. Movies, the Internet, traveling.
As a life form, the 4 key aspects of life are:
1). Eat 2). Sleep 3). Defecate 4). Reproduce
Literally everything else you do is irrelevant or secondary to the core mission of life.
Since when does wearing a brown hoodie convey that one is a genius?
Well, he is an actor…
Now you have an engineer do that. Boeing?
And what possible way has Ukraine lost this war?
Russia’s goal was to topple Ukrainian government and see his complete control over the entire country in 3 days.
Here we are, 3 years into the war and Russia has lost something like 14,000 vehicles, over half a million casualties, and what have they achieved exactly?
Besides turtle tank technology of course.
Cocaine, ha! Such amateurs.
My city sells that much weight in fentanyl per week!
Stuff? That isn’t very much money. Our monthly grocery bill alone is over $1,000. Plus rent. Plus car payments. Insurance. We’re already over $5,000 a month.
I don’t know what to tell you, but I work in business in the US and work in invoicing in the construction industry.
Everything is done via paper, full stop.
Bank transfers do not generate invoices, full stop. Company to company payments are made using a PO or check. Nothing else, in my experience, are accepted.
These are for amounts of $1 to tens of millions of $$$.
You can over $5000 in cash with you at all times???
Also, most all US small to mid sized business transactions are by check.
I’m not going to take a suitcase with over $10,000 to the city to pay a permit fee, or $50,000 Venmo to pay a business partner.
Unless you are in the marijuana industry, then you have to…
Man, I would never pay rent or a mortgage payment with a deposit. I did that once, and they claimed I didn’t pay several times, and I had no receipt. I had to pay my bank $20 to provide proof of deposit (several times) Fuck that. Also fuck US Bank.
Yes, my wife and my employers both pay using checks as well as printed invoices after direct deposits.
My entire family uses checks to pay each other. I’m not going to Venmo my dad $15,000. And his back doesn’t let me transfer funds to him for since idiotic reason.
He must have been homeless his entire adult life.
I’m mid 40s and didn’t get a credit card until I was 25. And I couldn’t even pay for any utilities, rent or car payments with it. And still can’t. Online bill pay wasn’t a thing until like after the recession.
Of course they were annoying assholes, that’s why we watched it. They’re New Yorkers ffs.
Fun fact, there are over 5 billion tons of naturally occurring uranium dissolved in the ocean.
More accurately, this would be like if the United States conducted a drone strike on a Mexican taco stand in Tijuana.
Conflating Bellingcat with the CIA is a hilariously bad take.
“Last year marked the final year of project funding from the National Endowment for Democracy (NED) that provided funding for Russian-language workshops at no cost to journalists and human rights researchers based in Russia, Ukraine, Central Asia and the Caucasus. We continued our project for the Swedish Postcode Lottery (SPL), which among others supported free trainings on ideological extremism for organisations in Europe.”
You seem to be misinformed. Also, provide proof that the NED is CIA, because that is quite a claim!
That is however a claim promulgated by the propaganda arm of the Chinese Communist State:
The United States has long used democracy as a tool and a weapon to undermine democracy in the name of democracy, to incite division and confrontation, and to meddle in other countries’ internal affairs, causing catastrophic consequences.

Steam supports direct voice chat. My friends use it for gaming.
Also, teamspeak.
It’s obviously a primary source, duh.
That being said, a few years ago we did lose a crow and a bluejay from the fireworks. We found them lying dead in the middle of the backyard the next morning.
This year however so far no dead animals.
