His election in 2000.

Now, not really. In the future, I expect subscribed new to be more important as content becomes more abundant and there might be a point where you could miss out on posts that didn't see the kind of engagement to make it on your stream.

I expect the numbers have probably gotten worse over time, but it is a decent rule of thumb.

It also requires making sure the community will accept content from new members. It is fine to enforce rules, but overzealous enforcement can push out other active members.

It would likely look like versions of the three most popular forms of Linux today, Android, ChromeOS, and Steam Deck.

Very likely, it would be developed to host a vendor's app store as a way to make money. Depending on the company, it would likely give admin access to users based on corporate preferences similar to how Android phone sellers lock or unlock parts of the phone. You can still install your own Linux to some computers, but that market would likely remain the same size it is today.

I also see some companies with a business model like Stripe deploy specialized Linux computers to businesses designed to deployable to large companies and have a longer lifecycle than a Windows OS. With payment of these computers likely done on a material + maintenance program, updates to these computers would likely focus on security and uptime only. Some individual large companies may even have their own flavor of Linux, like a hotel chain deploying terminals across corporate and franchise hotels and tied to corporate servers.

He would have stepped down in 2008 per constitutional limits.

Collective guilt combined with massive Israeli political pressure.

It depends on where. There are some toll highways that are 12+ lanes wide.

But do you need to slow it down all the way? Can't you just slow it down enough to get the ball in an elliptical orbit where the trash ball gets very close to the ball of plasma?

But does it matter what speed the garbage is going at when it hits the sun?

The best argument to toll every Interstate quality highway is that the toll revenue acts as a pretty good use tax. It is the reason why most toll highways are in better condition than free ones.

And figuring out how to fund free highways in the future is going to be a lot harder when the number of gas vehicles goes down and the gas tax, a pseudo use tax, isn't enough to fund maintenance.

While I posted the photo here, I feel like some might think this is less liminal because, while the overall space is liminal, there are parts of it trying not to be liminal.

The center of the hallway has a bar, which is traditionally a third place for people rather than a place to transit through. It is an interesting dichotomy where a place to be is against a place to go to other places without a clear divide between the two places.

You also have the person on the far left lying down while charging his phone. He is taking an action of turning a liminal space to a home. Due to how I shot the photo, he is separated from the rest of the space by wall, further enforcing that he has claimed what should be a liminal space as his personal space.

But then, as you noted, most photos posted here have been empty of humans and therefore can't claim the space they are in. Here, there are people using the liminal space in a non-liminal way, like how a lot of people use liminal spaces.

 
 

This isn't meant to be a discussion on the morality of the embargo, but the affects of the embargo ending for both countries. These affects can be political, economic, or social.
