    This is the same Texas state government that has made drastic changes to voting laws to try and reduce the number of citizens that can successfully cast a vote in the state.
    Based on your inaccurate comment it doesn’t seem to me you live in Texas. I’ve lived in Texas for my 43 years and the government has never tried to reduce the amount of people that can vote. We actually have opened early voting for extended periods of time, more than most states by a lot, and the state allows anyone to cast a provisional ballot that if needed any government issued or even a school issued ID is sufficient. You cannot tell me that even thou you’re required to have an ID to lease an apartment or any housing but it’s not okay to require that same ID to cast a ballot for an election. You’ve been fed wrong information watching CNN and reading The Washington Compost


    Raises hand.   I can.  Two words: poll tax.   

    Renting an apartment isn't a constitutionally-guaranteed fundamental right.  Voting is.

  • Apple's M2 chip - what to expect from the next Apple Silicon evolution

    M2 based on a15 or a16. 
    Signifying next generation. 
    A15 is marginally faster than a14, so m2 marginally faster than m1. Should add up to a nice multi ore and graphics boost. 

    Looking for war to the m2 max. 

    M-series aren't "based on" A-series or vice versa.  They each share IP from a given generation.   Saying otherwise just causes confusion.

    Did you trot out this chestnut when they put same-sex couples in as well?

    The irony here is that a person identifying as male who became pregnant nonetheless is about as emotionally applicable to strangers as the emoji specification process.  And semantically it is nearly identical for other human beings to assemble in their own minds and leave at that. 

    In the latter case it’s no different than assembling a married couple from any two person emojis, irrespective of genders.  Uncomplicated and unencumbered as that.

    Even smaller MacBook Pro? No thanks.
    Same screen size, bigger keyboard and smaller body.

    All wins

    Keyboards should be standard size.  No bigger, no smaller.
