Moving to where?

My finger was hovering over buying about 250$ worth of bitcoins at around 0.20USD a pop. Back then I was pretty broke. I had been unemployed for a bit was burning through savings and struggling to pay rent, so it was hard to justify.

a) the main purpose is to avoid paying b) because spending a bunch of cash can be suspicious to other agencies that are looking, like if law enforcement is already suspicious and starts seeing a ton of large purchases without a legitimate source of income they will figure out something is up c) because people don’t know any better.

Fair enough. The same saying often goes for sex workers.

That’s how they ended up catching Al Capone, on tax fraud charges.

How do you mean? The whole point is to encourage people, everyone, to pay taxes. It’s a great system. Taxes enforcement should be truly independent from all other agencies to maximize trust and honesty.

The IRS normally doesn’t share files with anyone. Don’t you know the old saying? The best way not to get caught as a drug dealer is to file your taxes.

If you look at my other comment, undocumented people in the US contribute over $90B in taxes every year!

Mostly financially. Related to hiusing. I don’t really wanna get into more details, but I’m essential stuck with my current living situation for the rest of my life, unless I’m willing to lose tens of thousands of dollars (or even more if I try to improve the place I’m currently at instead of cutting my losses and moving at an already big loss). Pressure to secure stable housing for an eventual old age made me make tough decisions that in hindsight were pretty fucking ill-advised.

You can’t tax them at all, at least officially, without giving them the authorization to work.

You should probably know that this isn’t correct at all. Undocumented immigrants do in fact pay income tax in the US. The IRS issues Individual Taxpayer Identification Number to everyone, regardless of status.

Regardless of immigration status, both resident and nonresident immigrants may have federal tax return and payment responsibilities under the Internal Revenue Code.

Undocumented immigrants paid nearly $97 billion in federal, state and local taxes in 2022, according to a July 2024 report , opens new tab by the Institute on Taxation and Economic Policy (ITEP), which used data on taxpayers with ITINs to estimate tax revenue.

The ITEP report said undocumented immigrants contributed $59.4 billion to the federal government, including payments for federal income tax and federal social insurance such as Social Security, Medicare and Unemployment Insurance.

The IRS issues “Individidual Tax Identification Number” for undocumented immigrants who don’t have a social security number.

Fucked

Mine isn’t :/

Yeah I have the same worry. We have a weighted blanket that we still haven’t washed and it bothers me. I don’t need to wash it regularly but it would be good to give it an initial wash after purchase, but I’m worried about damaging my front loader :(

The brand collapse is even better

FIFY

My board uses an IT879X and works just fine with the mainline drivers.

I really haven’t had any issues for like 10+ years. Using Debian with Gigabyte motherboards, ThinkPad, and Dell XPS’.

What are you? A communist?

This seems accounted for since the comparative samples are from “similarly urban areas”

• The tiny particles likely come from particle resuspension around Direct Current Fast Charging power cabinets. Cooling fans designed to prevent the electronics from overheating can also stir up dust and particles from internal surfaces.

a) that doesn’t really sound like the fault of EVs or the charging stations themselves. Any sort of very moderate air current would cause the same problem.

b) that sounds pretty easy to fix with some filters simple pleated filters, and that would leave the surrounding environment cleaner than they used to be.
