I wouldn’t worry about customs taking your stuff, especially if you have insurance or tracking or anything like that on the ticket, and especially with a wealthier country like Costa Rica where paper trails are more important.
It's something my fiance warned me about. Her and her family has known customs agents to take shit. Recently they tried to send some chocolates and small gifts to us here in the U.S., and about 1/3rd of the chocolate got stolen. I'm not sure which company it was with, but it is something that happens, and to my understanding is just a culturally known fact of life.
Legos aren’t apparently valuable on their face and with the paper trail of receipts/documents I wouldn’t think you have to worry about anything getting lifted by customs.
Sure, but by weight I'm looking at about $2k worth of misc boxes, before accounting for built sets that are in good condition with all their pieces.
if you add some fragile notices and insurance on there the agents responsible for transporting the packages will be a lot more careful, for sure.
I'll have to look into this then. Thank you for the help!
I've been doing some shady shit with regex lately (parsing .md files for interactive TTRPG sheets), but I'm glad to have not been touching XML
Any advice on how to move all my shit without it getting stolen?
I've got a collection of a shit load of Legos from childhood that hold a lot of sentimental value, but it's easily worth a shit load of money. In particular I'd be looking to move to Costa Rica. My fiance is from there, but she said stuff like that would be likely to get stolen by customs.
I do the same, but not because of sales, but because it takes 2-3 years for the high seas to swell with jolly rogers.
10/10 I love this shit
It's sad that something like it can never happen again because of how everything is streamed/torrented now.
Java is inherently cross platform, and works well on linux. So assuming the phone is powerful enough, you should be good to go even if it's linux.
Definitely worth checking out Minetest/Luanti though, it has promise.
Looks like a job for a stew that makes you blind for a day
Switching cost gonna switching cost
That's fair. But it's at least something.
Been steeling these from work forever. 10/10 they work great for the kitchen.
Anyway, I’m just saying the crypticness is largely cultural and unnecessary. If there is some kind of CLI “skin” that lets you interact with Linux at the command line using normal words, I’d love to know about it.
This is far more manual than you probably had in mind, but Linux has support for a command called alias, which allows you to basically rename anything you like:
He is dumb, but its a bit deeper than that. They fetishize free speech and lack of censorship, but in practice they don't actually want free speech and they love censorship.
So when they create an LLM that's predisposed with that fetishization, it comes out in the form of calling nazis like Elon for being nazis.
They're trying to have their cake and eat it too, but it's blowing up in their face.
Trump is the figure uniting the fascists in the US when he pops it topples and the spell is broken.
I sincerely hope so, but I don't find that likely. People aren't turning to fascism just because they like him, they're doing so because they aren't able to think critically, or are hateful, or are looking for easy answers to the complex issues fucking up their lives, or all of the above.
Trump didn't get to power in a vacuum. The political environment is ripe for it.
This took 10 seconds. Quit being lazy.
Yes, which is why I quoted this text instead of "just house everyone"
Ending homelessness requires a granular, personal approach. And that shit is EXPENSIVE.

But generally less expensive than letting the problem fester. Police, medics, sanitation, and so on is expensive as hell.
