They actually can arrest anyone because they are immigration and customs enforcement. They are still law enforcement, so they can enforce any law. If you import something illegal or try to smuggle drugs into that is one agency that can investigate you. They arrest people for things like importing fake luxury items.

OK, so a bittorrent tracker site with a video player built in with comments underneath and you can get perks from content creators for seeding. Then of course some kind of voting system and etc. Then a creator can just get a seed box to start hosting their own videos.

It's time to start putting your state police to work finding more terrorists.

Except that right wing Conservatives are now losing ground in every other country in response to Trumps actions. Europe is building it's own defenses. Russia has lost a lot in the war against Ukraine. Unless the U. S. Invades Europe, then Russia will burn itself out in a year or two.

You can buy old cop cars for next to nothing. Just buy one private party with cash and never transfer the title. They're generally easier to steal because departments have them keyed the same for convenience.

It gets passed onto consumers via higher prices. It's a way to pay for tax cuts for the wealthy.

Images take a long time to load (sh.itjust.works)
 

Images load at a very low resolution and take 5-10 seconds or more to fully load. Something changed a little while ago as I wasn't having this issue before. I tried clearing cache with no change.

Windows are tiny on Bazzite ( Fedora Gnome) (sh.itjust.works)
 

I bought my nephew a used thinkpad as a gift and installed Bazzite as it was recommended by the community. The text was tiny so I increased font size by 1.5, but certain windows like steam updating are still tiny and impossible to read. I want to give him the best experience possible out of the box. What setting do I need to change?

Best file partition setup for Proxmox with separate drives for security camera recording? (sh.itjust.works)
 

I have a small ITX pc with a 256gb ssd and two nvr drives for recording my security cameras. I have a google coral installed to run frigate. I'm doing a fresh installation and I'm not sure what the best partition setup is. I'd like to have all of my vm's and containers on the ssd and mirror the two separate drives just for video recording. I'll run backups of my vm's, containers, and configs elsewhere in case the ssd fails.

Preferably:

Available on Libby

Nonfiction

Not a biography/autobiography

Not a self help book or pop phychology

The narrator isn't annoying/breathy

How would you set up a loaner google tv box? (library as an example) (sh.itjust.works)
 

I'm looking into setting up android tv boxes or sticks for a charitable organization to loan out to people or possibly for their locations.

I have an ONN box with f launcher, button remaper, smarttube, etc.

I'd like to set that up and then when it comes back the hardware reset button can just be held down and revert to what I set up without going back to the out of the box state.

I think I'm looking for custom recovery partition or something like that.

Which project would be best for a local community hub? (sh.itjust.works)
 

Mastadon? Lemmy? It would probably have to be standalone so people would't be turned off from the content from the rest of the fediverse unless there's a way to prevent federated content from showing on the instance. Just a place to post local news and discussions, maybe a place to sell secondhand. I live near a huge college with a major cs program, so I should be able to get users.

Only getting video output from the motherboard. It did this with Budgie on top of stock Ubuntu and with the Budgie "flavor" freshly installed.

I have an Intel A310 in an HP prebuilt, so that's probobly the issue.

If you think a game should be higher or lower in ranking, then upvote or downvote it. If you don't see a game on the list that you think should be on the list then create a top level reply with the name and system.

The inside of a snowman could be warmer than the outside. (sh.itjust.works)
 

If you built a snowman during the day the snow only needs to be below freezing. It can get colder that night or the next day by quite a bit. The exterior of the snowman would be colder than the inside even though they're both frozen.
