I've been wondering about this one... Is Trump in trouble... or is he causing the trouble...

I've been told they flew a Biden flag back when he was president, so it's probably the latter (I've seen that house a few times)

The 13th amendment has an exception. Technically, slavery wasn't completely abolished in the USA.

Or as a way for someone putting malware on the system to keep other malware away...

2B is also a good lead for .3 mechanical pencils. HB is usually too hard and breaks a lot more.

To everyone saying this is AI, I can assure you it's not. It's an editorial blog from a well known journalist. He does write in a more relaxed conversational style but I am sure, after following his site for over 20 years now, he's not using AI.

It was written less than an hour after his previous post so I'm sure there was a lot he was tracking before throwing this out there.

As to the story itself, I have seen where a lot of organizations have pushed guidance not to respond until leadership tells everyone what to do. At least in the DoD. I don't know how everyone is supposed to respond by Monday night anyway, some people have schedules where they don't work on Monday.

For anyone reading this that has to install Windows, when you get to the point where it asks you to log into a Microsoft account, hit shift+F10, type oobe\bypassnro into the command prompt and after it reboots select "I don't have an account"...

I would still maintain that Linux is a better option though.

You should probably look up what the word "operational" means.

And yet they have still been operational for 60 years after that... Funny that the U2 lasted longer than the Soviet Union.

Add DC and make it an even 52

Puerto Rico is not autonomous. In Puerto Rico v. Sanchez Valle, the US Supreme Court found that sovereignty of Puerto Rico ultimately resides in the United States Congress. The US Congress can pass a law for Puerto Rico and there is nothing anyone in the Puerto Rican government can do about it. US Congress has ultimate control over Puerto Rico (see https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PROMESA as an example). That isn't autonomous.

"If Congress chose to alter Puerto Rico’s political status, it could do so through statute regardless of whether a plebiscite were held or what sentiment such a vote revealed."

Puerto Rico had been owned by the United States since the US took it during the Spanish-American War in 1898. It is part of the US. There have been multiple votes asking if they want to become an official state of the US. Other countries don't get the choice to become US states. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Territories_of_the_United_States#Incorporated_vs._unincorporated_territories

You don't need a passport because it is inside US borders.
