That was the thing my daughter in law ran into… Myanmar doesn’t allow dual citizenship, so she had to give up her own citizenship to become a US citizen.
In the end, it’s safer for her now because she can visit her family and doesn’t have to worry about being immediately blocked re-entering the US.
True, but it’s a green card hearing that should have been done 29 or 30 years ago when she was 15 or 16 and trying to get her first job. :)
She’s been here since the George H.W. Bush administration… plenty of time to have worked things out.
Well, the only guarantee is being born on US soil, there’s nothing in place for minor children who are already citizens of a different country.
I could imagine automatic citizenship like that would cause more problems. Other countries would be like “Hey, we didn’t authorize that!”
Thanks! I’ll check that out!
Oh no, they’ll still revoke legitimate citizenship, but she made it way too easy by, you know, not earning citizenship in the first place.
Well, if they come here at 10 and aren’t a citizen and don’t do the work to become a citizen, then they still aren’t a citizen.
People said the same thing about W. Bush and the opposing side said the same thing about Obama. I’m cautiously optimistic.

Saturday before Easter… 17 or 18 year old kid was going on and on about how he couldn’t wait to get home so he could play Call of Duty all night, and this and that… lots of swearing, lots of talk about shooting and destruction.
Me: “I dunno man, don’t you have to be in bed early so the Easter Bunny will come?”
Seems likely spillover from the Diamond bankruptcy, it’s hitting all the comics publishers that Diamond still owes money to:

Forget the orbit… remember the song…
https://genius.com/Monty-python-the-galaxy-song-lyrics
“Just remember that you’re standing on a planet that’s evolving
And revolving
at 900 miles an hour.
It’s orbiting at 19 miles a second,
so it’s reckoned,
The sun that is the source of all our power.
Now the sun, and you and me,
and all the stars that we can see,
Are moving at a million miles a day,
In the outer spiral arm,
at 40,000 miles an hour,
Of a galaxy we call the Milky Way.”
If you have both, and a timer on your phone, should be easy enough to check. Put the same measured amount of water in both and see how long it takes to boil.
Not on the same book, but back in the 90s I read two books on the same topic back to back:
The Hot Zone by Richard Preston:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Hot_Zone
The Coming Plague by Laurie Garett:
https://www.lauriegarrett.com/the-coming-plague
Imagine the same news story, first covered by a sensationalist tabloid, and then again by the New York Times, with in depth coverage, multiple sources, and copious foot and end notes.
This isn’t to say the Hot Zone is a BAD read, it’s not, it’s just not to be confused with anything remotely academic.
I used to microwave water for all sorts of things before getting an induction stovetop.
Seriously, it goes from tap water to boiling in 2 minutes. It’s a game changer.
Looks like the haptics connector bracket on the right button board according to iFixit:
https://www.ifixit.com/Guide/Steam+Deck+Right+Button+Board+Replacement/148943
"Exercise caution when lifting this connector—pry up on the connector itself, not its housing.
Use the pointed end of a spudger to lift up on the haptics cable to disconnect it.
Alternatively, you can leave the haptics connected to the button board and flip the board up and over the edge of the shell and out of the way."
Lots of comments along the lines of:
“Please remove this step. It is virtually impossible to remove this without breaking the housing and it’s ultimately not necessary.”
Looks like replacing the board as a whole is around $141.
Not so much anymore, but man, back in the Blackberry days they were NOTORIOUS!
^ This. If we’re lucky enough to get a Democratic president willing to abuse the executive order system the way Trump is, and make no mistake, it IS abuse… the same Supreme Court that ruled “Well, the President can do it” would look at a Democratic President and go “Whoah, woah, whoah, we didn’t mean YOU could do it.”
$4 mil seems low, must be 1960s dollars. :)
