re: Plaquemines Parish Residents - May 3 Please go vote (insane sales and use tax)

Better than a Property Tax where a small percentage pays the most.
re: EBR Residents- May 3 Please Go Vote (property tax on the ballot)

Property tax is such a fricking scam. Why do I have to pay way more just because I have nicer house. If you want to do Property Tax, it should be the same for everyone. I don't use the cops, roads, schools, BREC, DA anymore than the po folk. In fact, they use the DA, COPS, CATS and all the bullshite way more than I do. Underserved my arse, they are over served and bleeding us all dry. When will it end.

Turn off the OneDrive Backup so your documents, desktop and pictures go back to the normal folders. Then Sign out of OneDrive app.

re: Do guys who wear undershirts just don’t care that it looks retarded & is also kinda dumb?
Posted by ColdDuck on 4/13/25 at 9:33 am
As long as you can’t see the undershirt it is fine. If you can see it under your polo or dress shirt it looks stupid. It is the same thing as having your underwear showing. I sometimes wear them with a button up if a wear a tie. But if I don’t button the collar, then maybe a vneck.

Transformers is excellent. If you like scores and have not listened to it, add to your list. John Williams-esque with motifs/themes.

This thread reminds me of most of my friends. They are freaking clueless. S&P is up 3% in one year even with all the bullshite that just happened. Most people are dumb. You don’t lose money until you sell. Now unless you were planning to cash out your entire account last week, then this is a non issue.

Do you have a second hole in the wall for the soundbar? Just run hdmi back to it from tv but go through the wall.
re: Mickey 17 (2025) In Theaters Now (Spoilers pg2)

It was ok. Different for sure. Kept me entertained. It could have been 20 minutes shorter. Mickey 18 sounded like his Batman character and all the rest he had that funny nasal voice.

Yeah but the old receptionist working at the 6 person law firm isn’t moving to Linux.

There is not a snowball chance in hell an office environment is going to Linux for its users. So stop with that option.
Just bite the bullet and buy some new shite before October.

Prescriptions to Geaux. But y’all stay at Walgreens and don’t clutter up my place.

Yep, thank goodness for Reddit and TD. I screwed around with mine for an hour until I found info online about the outage. SSL cert expired.
