A councilor who represents some of the most impoverished areas of the city wants to use recreational-use cannabis tax revenue to implement a basic income program for her constituents.

Guaranteed basic income is essentially a monthly stipend given to a specific community that usually lasts a year. Not to be confused with universal basic income, a cash payment that all people receive regardless of their income.

This is actually a pretty cool idea for the funds.

 

What will it take for something like this to be successful in Abq?

 

During a community event in Sandoval County today, Secretary of the Interior Deb Haaland signed Public Land Order 7940 protecting more than 4,200 acres of Bureau of Land Management-managed public lands in the Placitas area.

The final mineral withdrawal protects, preserves, and promotes the scenic integrity, cultural importance, recreational values and wildlife habitat connectivity of the lands and the surrounding area. The lands will be closed to new mining claims, mineral sales, and oil and gas leases for the next 50 years, subject to valid existing rights.

That would the way to do it . Removing a 50 mile taxi ride would make things much cheaper .

Probably not alot of secrets about that aircraft left . The Russians probably got a good look at the one that was shot down in 1999.

New Mexico mostly eliminated cash bail about seven years ago but there was still issues . I hope Illinois learned from our mistakes when they wrote their law .

Passenger could have been being quite thorough. Filling up all the lavatories.

This is blatantly false. The 14th Amendment prohibits it.

Quote the part of the 14th Amendment where it prohibits someone from being elected to an office. I'll link the Amendment here: https://constitution.congress.gov/constitution/amendment-14/

If you read what i said, i differentiated between being elected and holding office. Careful when you say something is "blatantly false". That sounds like you were accusing me of lying, and that can create a toxic community.

Trump can be elected again. Holding that office is another thing.

 

Maybe I'm just easily amused. Image uploads are not working, so i'll include this. But now i'm curious if Canoncito Rd is an actual private drive, or if the residents just stuck that sign there to keep people out.

It was previously available behind the counter but a prescription was not needed .

If you live some place in a drought, water is an issue when planting new trees.

According to Kelly Blue Book you are correct:

Barring an unexpected last-minute change, every mainstream car available for sale in the United States for the 2023 model year will come with standard air conditioning. That’s a first.

The last holdout was, unsurprisingly, the Jeep Wrangler. For the 2022 model year, buying a brand-new Wrangler without A/C is possible.

https://domainnamewire.com/2023/02/09/verisign-announces-another-com-price-hike-2/

Verisign (NASDAQ: VRSN) today announced a 7% increase in .com prices to take effect on September 1, 2023.

...

Under its agreement with ICANN and the U.S. government, Verisign is allowed to increase prices by 7% per year in the last four years of every six-year contract term. This will be the third hike of this contract term, and the company is expected to increase .com prices to $10.26 in 2024.

Would be nice if ICANN changed the agreement a tad .

I actually didn't care when there was an ad in the beginning of the video or what not. It was when I had to start watching multiple ads in the middle of a 10 minute video as well. Like come on, not even broadcast TV is that annoying.

. Or they could have added a little bit of code to their CPU ID utility that says "yupp your processor is effected by the flaw".

That is a fair point.

Unfortunately I was out without my main camera. Captured instead with a phone. Brief video clip: https://peertube.io/w/sYuqbjoEjzh4EjHsu4Tyv8

Technically this is Bernalillo, but it's part of the Abq metropolitan area, so I'm sure you'll all be ok with the post.
