Well, he’s not a king or a wizard. It takes the whole government to get it done, and these were done under his administration.

Sounds like going with Option 1 to me. Too boring for America though.
Just because there are other options worth trying, doesn’t mean we should give up on also trying a peaceful option. If we elect better people, it’s not the same thing. If we strike, too, it’s not the same thing. Nonviolent interference is not doing the same thing. We can augment rather than abandon. It’s more complicated, harder, and requires cunning and patience rather than mere brute force. Nothing has a guaranteed result, not even violence—especially with GOP/MAGA in power. All of the tools are more effective when not under Republican rule.
Could be better. Could be worse. Still think it’s worth trying in addition to anything else we try.
Yeah, but I was responding to (what I thought was) the claim that the federal government would shut down its channel. I misread it. After further explanation and rereading I now see my error. I thought that’s what I said.
I interpreted you putting those words in her mouth as you saying she’s as right wing as the other side.
That doesn’t rule out holding them accountable via a government that works for us. Having that (or working towards that) was too boring for Americans this time. But if we had that, I’m sure the rich would be at least as scared of government guns as you say they’d be of increased vigilante guns.
“I’m so right wing…”
My ultimate goal is to install Xubuntu on this computer, but I am stuck.
I cannot find any way to get into the BIOS to change settings, including being able to boot to the USB installer drive.
I have tried F1 held, F1 repeated, Fn+F1 (held/repeated), same with F2, same with F12, same with Del.
I tried telling Windows to boot to UEFI settings, but it reboots directly to windows.
I ended pulling the drive and removing all the partitions, in hopes that then it wouldn't try to boot to Windows anymore. Now it just gives me this:
Using this menu, I can't boot to USB, nor can I boot to DVD.
I opened it and do not see any jumpers on the visibe side of the motherboard. I also did not see a CMOS battery. There are lots of tiny ribbon cables and the heat sink+fan that I'll have to remove if I need to look on the other side.
What I want most is access the the BIOS / UEFI settings.
If a workaround like installing an OS to the drive using another machine and then putting back in will probably work, then I'll try that, but that will be such a hassle.

I’ve backed Impact! Miniatures before and it’s always been great.
I really like that odd-numbered dice even exist. It sounds like a what-if that was taken too far. And it turned out great.
What about a unique way to show curses and disadvantages to your players. Impact!'s cursed dice allow you to give your players a unique die to use for the session to show the effect of their misguided actions. A D19 to show a curse that prevents criticals and natural 20s. Along with several other different dice to disadvantage rolls in many creative ways.
These dice were designed to be as fair as possible for an odd sided die. All the sides are equal sized and equal distant from the center mass. Each die was created by a specialist trained in working with geometeric design.
These odd dice are all new molds and modified designs by Impact! We've learned from our attempts to make odd sided dice in the past and these dice are brand new designs to make sure the dice stop faster by being larger and designed to have better defined stopping surfaces. The new designs are also easier to read with larger fonts and better extras to show you the top value being rolled.
I saw one show in the middle of the road, so I moved it to the curb. I walked a bit further and found the other shoe on the side of the road. When I came back through the second shoe was still there, so I carried it to back to be reunited with the first. No clue if their owner ever found them. They must have been on someone’s car and fell off at different times. Both were near curves in the road.
