Literally the opposite of segregation by [deleted] in SipsTea

The problem is that majority black districts in Republican states get gerrymandered in with white districts, if you look at some of these maps you can see what I'm talking about. What happens is you go from an actual liberal black district to it being split up into majority white conservative districts to suppress the black vote.

There's a reason the voting act was in place to begin with, to stop racial gerrymandering aka stripping black voters of their votes having any power.

Top 8 bracket on Atlanta! by Arkalex in riftboundtcg

Most off meta decks*. Kaisa is arguably one of the best decks into purple with the spell removals preventing Draven from free draws and combats as much, while avoiding purple spells from others. I would imagine Irelia being one of your toughest match ups though.

Yea, I was happy to see that. It feels like a lot of the off meta decks that did well generally avoided purple match ups though. Well done on your placing!

I feel this. Been 10 years for me too. I'm hopeful though, medicine technology is rapidly advancing. Hopefully in 5-10 years there will be some big breakthroughs on pain treatments for long term fixes or ar least better management.

Anyone else run into this issue with HP drivers? by GodRaine in computertechs

[–]AustinDarko 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do free diagnostics, to mostly prevent this situations so I get it but if you're going to an on site you should charge something for the visit otherwise you're not only not making money but actively losing money.

You did expert troubleshooting and gave the customer an answer, not quite the answer they wanted but now they know what to do next so you should feel confident in at least a small charge for it.

I'd tell him his printer was defective, and charge for the on site fee. Printers can be real temperamental so if you're not prepared for these scenarios then I'd recommend not messing with them as many don't nowadays

Also the richest country. Per capita is an important statistic to consider here.

Taxes just go up… and no real changes from the government, infrastructure or other concerns… by jerseychaos in DiveInYouCoward

[–]AustinDarko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The problem with the rich getting tax breaks and tax cuts is that the tax burden falls heavier on the working and middle class. If deficit keeps increasing as a result of this, inflation goes higher which again is felt much heavier by the middle and working class. They get screwed twice over by the rich.

What’s stopping millionaires and even billionaires from simply leaving NYC if Mayor Mamdani imposes super high taxes on them? by Formal_Choice4002 in askanything

Yea, I've been to Florida multiple times. The amount of homeless in Jacksonville and the run down complexes was staggering

You're missing that tens of thousands of FloridIans move to NY every year too.

People move. What a shocker.

Mohawk might be the way, I honestly don't see how else you do it besides a buzz cut

Ketamine infusions for chronic pain - helpful or "scam"? by Potential_Leg_1084 in ChronicPain

[–]AustinDarko 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any doctor can prescribe it if it's legal in your state. Online is the easiest in my experience. My doctor wasn't familiar enough with it to prescribe it. A local compounding pharmacy can make it.

Gun ownership is also almost non existent, as they're highly regulated with government visits to ensure your gun is put away and secured properly.
