On tomorrow's news: Why ID Verification is Needed for Internet Safety
Noooooo!
Texas and Florida are basically the most active sources of vomit and feces stains on the north American continent. This does not surprise me
I ain't choose to live here bruh
There's plenty of people that have lived there continually since before Texas existed.
Plenty of highways to get outta there, man.
with what money and place to live lol, my gofundme ain't for show in this economy
true, and most blue states have HCOL-MHCOL too.
yeah, only reason i can afford to live in this blue state is i can't afford to live here. multigenerational home and shit, looking into a cheap RV so i can move out, go work for the parks department or some shit.
as someone who had an RV, don't fucking do it. move to Kentucky or Tennessee, abysmally cheap rent.
looking at a cheap insulated toy hauler so i can load up my trike and be a camp host. i have goals dude.
have fun with the leaking roof
i will! i used to drive a car with T-tops, it'll take me all the way back to the 90s
With Mexico now having universal healthcare, there's no better time to try.
Pretty sure they are starting with older people and you would need to be a Mexican citizen to begin with (?).
florida is a swamp that will fall into the ocean eventually, and texas will cook to death from the desert+climate change, or when the feral pigs take over the state,.
You try so hard to never post any photos or locations online, and then shit like this happens...
corporations angry that hackers might steal the money the companies were planning to steal from consumers
The only IT departments I’ve seen who are more overworked and under qualified than government is health care and educational institutions.
And this isn’t even on the IT department themselves. It’s the usual suspect: 3rd party vendor contracted to store data. But yes, the point still stands that they are overworked, underpaid, and sometimes underqualified.
If they weren’t overworked and underpaid they wouldn’t need third parties for that stuff.
companies seem to dont value IT alot, because it "costs them too much money"
From the article it seems like this is mostly the hunting and wildlife department, not driver's licenses. It still sucks, but the headline is not technically correct because it is hunting and wildlife license owners.
*Texas Parks and Wildlife Department
Everything is bigger in texas, especially their nonstop stream of failures and bad choices.
