    Youre really going to post the most controversial study there is because they cherry picked data?

    Please give me one actual example of where the people toppled the government and enacted change… through non-violent protesting.

    Moving the goal posts yeah yeah yeah. Give me an article or proof then of 1 single thing that caused real, permanent change, like I originally asked. Not some mass “several” article.

    Moral persuading goes hand in hand with actual violence to show that you mean business. The moral persuasion just goes to get the common folk on your side so to try to prevent future issues. Look at Malcom x and MLK. MLK wouldn’t have got nearly as far without the threat of Malcom X causing actual immediate change. Like open carry laws.

    Moral persuasion is a great tool, but alone, enacted zero real change.

    Not going to lie, I have no sources to back this up, it’s just what I was taught in highschool.

    That said, even with both violence and non- violent persuasion, racism still perpetuates within America.

    Must be regional then. I noticed that my shell isn’t completely flat after seeing your post and now I’m obviously very concerned.

    I’ve reached out to Steam Support atleast, hopefully they can directly sell me one, or point me somewhere that I’m not buying one off Amazon but this should likely be replaced asap…

    When did you get your steam deck? Mines an original Q3 an curious if this is something common for our 2 year old devices?

    Most companies I’ve worked for, from union to mom and pop, pay for your drive time. Unless you’re in a very small company, in which case you record your mileage and are able to use it for taxes.

    If you’re in a big city you’ll have plenty of work all within a solid 50mile radius. If you’re out in the sticks with towns spread out… Youll still have plenty of work but the majority of your day will be driving.

    I personally love low voltage, specifically as a service technician. Spend 20 minutes diagnosing a problem, 20 minutes fixing it, and then 30 minutes driving to the next while getting paid the entire time. Take 4 to 7 calls a day and make bank.

    I’ve been doing this for almost 10 years though, and most guys start out as an installer, learning the trade, working at big job sites, and gaining the skills to be able to be a service technician. If you have an aptitude for learning, and care, you’ll be better than 75% of your coworkers.
