I think he is trying to say this is the way it is and implies that this is where it is going. I do not buy it. This may just be a run up. We have not seen major powers engage and I hope we do not. I also do not agree with his characterization of the Russia Ukraine conflict.
Wait… I think we are due for a pole reversal.We could blame it on space junk.
He is not an American citizen and he is not in the US. How does US law apply.
I am still not clear what supposed crime he has committed other then pissing powerful people off. He should get a reward for that.
This is one thing I never liked about many of the providers. They do every marketing gimmick in the book. Tiers so you really end up needing premium or business at some crazy price, prices that shift through the filing season, discounts through various paths so it is an Easter egg hunt, not showing you your return until you pay.
Personally, I think FreeTaxUSA is great. It really should be the first thing most people consider.
H&R Block has a Web version I think. Have you tried it?
Did you do the web or PC version? Just curious regarding what you thought of the web version if you used it. I think going back to H&R Block would be my next jump if I cannot work with FTU or OLT. H&R Block was pretty reasonably priced this year too compared to TurboTax and TaxAct. TaxSlayer for some reason was not listed as certified on the MN tax site this year. Do not know if that is a trend or just a one of.
Never forget that Russia was also an instigator in WW II and stared as an axis power and later partially switched sides but then kept the countries they had conquered so really they were just the surviving axis power.
Pretty much any IMAP mail provider combined with Nextcloud for sync will work.
Keep in mind too that Proton Mail has a commercial offering that should work with thunderbird. I have no experience with it.
We use our ISPs mail with our Nextcloud instance but long run will probably move to domain mail with maybe Fastmail for the mail component. Not sure yet. I will be interested in what you find.
Why ssh? Does ssh use xz?
I liked the Usenet and Reddit similarity. They both seamed to have more length stable patterns then the others. Also similar platforms in a lot of ways. Usenet ironically was the one that showed some declining toxicity with conversation length.
Nice thing about Solidworks is I think is used the ACIS kernel. Means it is directly compatible with a lot of other software.
Actually Solidworks is consider low to mid market. NX and whatever PTC calls their high end now are the main stream CAD systems as far as I know.
I used to use Solidworks and NX some. I think there are similarities. That is sketch based. I admit though, not really learned FreeCAD either. On my list some day.
There are a bunch. There are fewer that are multiuser. Search alternativeto. Thing is people want more then double entry accounting. Electronic payment processing, reporting, payroll, AR, tax… Then how does it work with the professionals you hire.
Edit: For personal stuff, my wife and I use GNUCash. It does have small company features. I do not think it is concurrent though, but it can be used with an SQL backend though. We do not use the database mode so no experience with it.
FreeCAD is the best FOSS program I know for solid modeling. Librecad works for 2D.
No I did not. Financial forum her is kind of dead. Not sure what other tax related forums there are on lemmy. My question was about some specific issues related to getting an incorrect 1095-C. I think I have decided on a cousre of action now but was looking for others thought too.
Just FYI. By 4th Turning I mean the book. A couple of decades ago there was a book that takes about patterns in US history. The 4th Turning was about 2020 time frame if you followed the book. A turning from the books thesis is a time of political and social unrest. Weakening institutions. Usually a major war. We see signs of this all around us.
Edit: Feels very pre world war 2 too. America retreating into isolationism. Russia planning to expand. Lot of similarities.
Drones are important sure. I am not sure how important. It is no surprise that Ukraine cannot do large scale combined arms maneuver warfare though. Neither Ukraine or Russia is trained in that and Ukraine does not have conventional air support to a large extent. I would not attribute it entirely to drones.
