@crazychile It’s still there. And they actually made a form for it to dance around the Impossibility Defense. https://tax.iowa.gov/forms/drug-tax-stamp-order-form-70-510

Something something truth stranger than fiction, etc.

Iirc, the first federal statute dealing with mj was called the Marijuana Tax Act (1927?), so Iowa was just following suit. Ofc, at the time the Federal Courts still pretended the 9th and 10th Amendments hadn't been repealed. Oh wait, they havent?

Sorry, 1937.

Guess who I'm paraphrasing LOL

A particular shout out to you @purr1n , for directing this audio form in the manner of a responsible father. That will sound cheesy to some, but it's true

My son is a heavy Libby user!

It makes it so easy. You can get your library card through the app too.

Libby is wonderful but they have arbitrary limits on the amount go digital copies that can be loaned out at once, so I can understand why someone would want to purchase a particularly valued audiobook.

All my hopes of swift recovery for both the emotional and physical. I’ll keep my one-man Hamlet under wraps for now, per your request.

Thanks everyone for your thoughts and prayers. I'm actually out of the house today driving the girls to school, utilizing the car pickup service at the grocery store, etc. I'm weak but I can drive... Really officer....

Plaxovid is the bomb, but boy does it leave a nasty taste in your mouth continuously. Of course I gave it to my wife she tested positive yesterday...

Don’t lie @crenca you want to buy it so you can sit on the couch with it.

Maybe my input tube (6CG7) has more gain from factory (it's new production) or my OG tube lost some gain over about 1.5 years of use?

The two cars I'm in regularly - a "sport" (thus the lowest trim) 2017 Mazada 6 and a 2012 Honda Odyssey minivan both share the HD650's tonality (no sub bass, distorted bass + mid bass hump, mid focus, upper mid emphasis, etchy and sibilant highs), as does most stock car systems I can recall

My wifes Toyota Sequoia however does not, it's worse (a JBL branded "premium" system) and to wish it sounded like an HD650.

Car audio is a big scene / industry, but I've seen pretty much zero overlap with the headphone online communities. Well done bridging the gap.

I disagree with the opinion of the Conductor...but the whole dismissal thing is gay.

It’s so funny how the country music industry bends over backwards patting themselves on the back for Charlie Pride and none of them will speak about The Dixie Chicks.

LOL DigMe, I had just opened the door of the 2nd fridge we have in the garage when it popped on me (about an hour after the garage door had last been used). That garage door is lucky I was not armed at the time ;)

My first thought was that someone had wrecked their car into my garage door so I went outside. When there was nothing to see there I could only assume someone was in my garage. I couldn’t imagine such a crash happening any other way.

A spritz of lube once a year on the springs should help extend their life.

Your dream don’t lie.

Wow. Some kind of metadata executed something. That is wild.

Always buy a used car that has classical music and NPR presets.

Hope its a good match

bravo to you @crenca . hope you can grab brunch in ABQ at La Waffleria, a favorite.

I hope they suit your family well. Dobermans can be great family dogs.

If they fail in a few months (like others I have tried), which brand if any lasts?

looks cool, I just use what ever my in-laws won at the casino. Works great and it looks like an owl

I've never owned a standalone humidifier that lasted more than a couple years. I think the ones that integrate directly with home HVAC are the only ones that do.

The Corvette got the green arrow and pulled out into the intersection, but a HD van (did not catch the company) was running the red light. Corvette was t-boned on drivers side, and the A pillar was so collapsed it's hard to image the person survived.

The Van went along to collide with a Toyota Corolla as well, but at a side swipe angle so those folks probably lived even if they had injuries. Reminds me to minimize our time in our small car, and spend our miles in our heavier ones...

It's not a bad place in all. I lurk over there a whit, just seldom feel inclined to participate though quite a few on this forum do. Nice people, different preferences to SBAF, but I just feel very uncomfortable with the "scrolling" UX. No particular reason but I genuinely hate it compared to pages here.

@Lyander Doom scrolling is a trigger for me. While fancy UX it to me just reduces the information I can take in. Totally with you on that.

@Gazny I'm fine with Instagram and Discord, but it's like my brain is in a different gear compared to when I see pages? Less inclined to retain information, more conversational and loose, just overall different in feel. Blergh.

Her general advice is that selling privately online can involve risks, especially with potentially valuable coins. Buyers might falsely claim the coins are fake, for instance, and you might not be able to charge as much, if the coins are valuable, because online shoppers may not be serious collectors.

Other options are to consign with a coin shop or to sell via auction house. The benefits of doing so are that both have relationships with dedicated collectors whom they contact when items come up for sale. These collectors are prepared to pay top dollar. You’ll have to pay a fee – often a % of the sale (as with online sale) – but you might secure a higher sale price this way.

Thanks Tchoupitoulas, this is the sort of thing I need to know.

Feel like you can cop for $3.5K these days

I wonder if Disney will be able to recover the people "magic" in the future that has taken a hit.

Congratulations, you just explained mostly the FL OC.... Orlando!!!!

Unless they're willing to sacrifice some of their profit to pay more, I don't think it's going to go back... feels like prices were already kind of at the limit of what most people were willing to freely spend on a vacation.

You do if you are looking at C&D

Family picked up an SUV near the beginning of lockdowns mid last year and while I thought it was a bit of an extravagance at the time, might actually have been wise given it was replacing a 2006 model. Fuck the current market, really.

It is almost a dealers wet dream, and when they do have the inventory you want, they get to rake you over the coals.

They can't get a break anywhere. In the CBC's 'vote compass' quiz for the recent election here, there were 65 choices for religion (>6x the # for gender!) but not Jedi (nor Pastafarian nor SubGenius).

I want four shots plz.

Good thing I am Sith, now if only we could bring balance to the force
