... but the administration would steer it instead towards being more focused on operational weather forecasting and warning responsibilities.

Even for self serving goals and ignoring the future, don't you need accurate climate models to accurately forecast the weather and issue warnings?

There are a couple as I see it. You have the religious fundamentalists, I think this is mainly seen in the rules and court cases allowing people to be asses backed by religion. They also are trying to push their ideas nationwide, this is at odds sometimes with the next group. You have the anti-federalists, to them anything the federal government does is evil (especially if its not their rules). This is the ripping out of all the federal departments. They don't see any good coming from them. Any tax is theft, and any money spent is wasted. (military excluded). The third group is similar to group 2, but they are just anti-regulation. "the free market will figure it out". Now I don't think any of these groups have good ideas, but the only reason they are doing what they are doing is because they have ideas and have been working on it for a long time.

Probably cookies, I did another quick test and created a new profile. The front page was unpopulated. I went to a technology connections video, and the refreshed the front page. It was populated, cleared stored information, (history, cookies, cache, etc...) and when I refreshed the homepage it was blank again.

The fairly default browser I used to take the screenshot is to watch some free with ads movies on youtube, most recently was waterworld, fun to watch, makes no sense.

Its not this simple, it looks like this to me on my fairly locked down browser (firefox), but on a fresh profile (image attached), that page is populated. I assume its a cookie setting, as I see the same behavior when I turn off tracking protection and ad blockers. I didn't play around beyond that.

This is their FAQ about connectivity, I almost simply linked the page, but realized if you can't access it, you can't see the FAQ. https://catbox.moe/faq.php

1st the minimum wage absolutely should be raised to a livable amount, but I have some questions and comments about your numbers.

Averages are bad to use as a measure, they are heavy skewed by the top outliers, median is a much better measure.

If you are trying to recover to a target average, the minimum wage would be below the average, that's how averages work.

I'm trying to figure out where 72k comes from. 1k for rent (Yes I can find 1 bdrm in the city I live near that price), 150 gas/electric, 50 Water/trash, 100 internet, 250 food, 400 transportation, 500 health insurance all adds up to 29k a year.

The late 50s was still under 50% car ownership, a cheep car today is still around 20k.

For your gas, you have it at $5 a gallon for today, national average according to AAA is $3.132

In general a lot of the numbers you have don't seem to make sense.

rookie numbers (I share an instance with Kolanaki) our old home was shut down a few months ago.

Do you know if they will keep a read only version up?

Digikey is my go-to. I hope they make it through.

Similar to nitro for a user, but for a server as a whole. At various levels it add features to servers. Bigger files, more sticker slots, Banners, animated server icons, higher quality streaming, more options for invite links and how they appear...

 

During his brief unemployment, he explored opportunities flying for a private firefighting company – and still would not rule out leaving NOAA. He remains angry that fellow veterans were caught up in the layoffs.

He backed Trump due to the president's commitment to the rule of law, he said, but now Mr Ripp thinks Trump is flouting the correct procedures for reducing the federal workforce.

 

Whether it be social media use or access to pornography, are there valid studies that have looked into this? I feel like I've only seen anecdotes, or "inappropriate for children", but no evidence, studies, or journals to support this claim.
