To be fair, a lot of movie theaters ban bringing in outside food. At least in my experience. I agree with just not eating though. It would certainly be healthier to decouple moviegoing from snacking.

Because that would entail extra effort and cost in order to benefit humanity in general, and why do that when they can just keep more profit for themselves?

In my case it was a music composition app (Xewton Music Studio) that used to have both Android and iOS versions, but then some other company bought them out and discontinued the Android version.

I still have my old phone since it has at least one paid app on it that was removed from the Play store. I can't download the app I paid money for to my new phone, but I can still use the copy installed on my old phone.

Realizing this has completely dissuaded me from spending money on apps, but that's a whole other thing...

Can those services and registry keys be disabled on Home editions as well?

To follow on from that: I wonder to what degree this is a deliberate effort to impoverish people. The more American citizens (Trump supporters or not) living in precarity, the more cheap unskilled labor will be available to replace deported migrant labor...

I'm in one of the states that does all mail-in paper ballots. The idea of going to a centralized location to vote on an electronic touch screen ironically seems antiquated to me. Using a screen feels like barely a step away from the punch hole ballots my parents voted with when I was a kid.

I remember hearing this on the radio back in the day. It was the first time I heard a rock song I really strongly liked, and the album it was from was the first CD I ever purchased.

I've since gone on to be much more of a metal guy than a punk rock guy, but I'll always remember Fuck Authority.

I don't go for soft drinks often, but when I want one there's a few brands of root beer that come in glass bottles that stores near me keep stocked.

Every single point of fact made in the declaration is not just paralleled, it is Mirrored with exactness.

I dunno about every single point, I feel like the "merciless Indian savages" bit was uncalled for...

If he dies in office, we get President Vance, which could be a worse prospect for democracy than Trump.
