Typically when code changes existing permits are grandfathered in, they don’t pull outstanding permits and make them comply with new code. For something as relatively minor as residential solar you should really only need a few months notice at most I would think. Like either the plans are drafted and ready for submission soon or you’re still in the planning phase and just add panels.

How is buying local goods and services not contributing to the local economy? It’s the same economic effect as tourism.

Are you sure you’re not thinking of generators? All the popular propane heaters in the US have CO shutoffs. There’s not really a point to using a heater outdoors in the first place unless it’s one of the huge ones that take a 20 pound tank and very obviously shouldn’t be used indoors.

Work doesn’t stop being work because it’s artistic.

If you violate your visa you can get deported, that’s pretty normal globally and does involve an arrest. It’s only exceptional because of the inhumane conditions of detention facilities in the US and because she was arrested immediately instead of being denied entry or educated on the restrictions of the visa. If she presumably told CBP she was intending to violate the visa waiver she probably thought it was acceptable for some reason.

“Why yes customs agent, I am intending to perform work in exchange for money while in the US on a tourism entry permit” -Privileged and naive white tourist used to the Schengen area about to dive face first into a poisoned spike pit that was meant to catch brown people

The problem is the spike pit, not really the person diving into it making headlines because they happen to be a white woman.

“guarded” is usually a fence and some cameras, maybe a locked door. Honestly an easier target than any buried pipeline. Kind of surprising we don’t see more ELF action on this front, except for the whole ‘get sent to jail forever to make an example of you’ thing.

“but it feels like old reddit”. My god, imagine actively preferring the new reddit UI. Let them keep their shiny jangling keys instead of coming over here and pestering the devs for a snoovatar feature or whatever nonsense.

The ‘maybe read for 2 minutes to figure it out’ miniscule barrier to entry is a feature not a bug.

The more he focuses on this instead of ruining the lives of migrants, refugees, and queer people, the better. This is absurd enough to be funny instead of just stoking hate crimes.

Sure the economic consequences are really bad but just starting a trade war for the sake of being a messy bitch and no other apparent reason is kinda funny.

Why was it more important for Kamala to continue the genocide than to win over those non-voters?

1. you should always have external backups for your important data anyway

2. you can just export/import your user settings. You only lose comment history but you can just check that from a different instance if you want to.

First public beta/alpha release in 1995

I recently found out I’m about as old as Java and I still haven’t decided if that sounds worse for me or for Java.

How many Palestinian children have died so far with democrat supplied bombs again? You think you have a leg to stand on?

“but what if the genocide rubber stamp was still blue” is not a compelling argument.

Lol the downvotes. ‘No, don’t undercut my propaganda. they must be doing it because homophobia!’
