if you thought crispr with gene drive was terrifying, wait till you get a load of this.

I always interpreted legal tender not to be a mandate to accept that form of payment in general, but rather a formally recognized method for resolving debt in the event of legal dispute.

Hmm, now that I think of it, in USA the supply of cash flows from banks and thus supply of cash, whether directly or indirectly, requires some association with them too... the alternatives seem to be barter, scrip, etc. But if it's illegal to freely trade directly between suppliers and the needful for basic necessities, that does at least seem objectionable.

I'm also thinking about "banking hours"/bank requirements constraining the ability of even bank account holders to garner those necessities freely.

Yes, for cases like you are illustrating here, seems to me that is forcing some association as you argue. Then again, it doesn't force a /specific/ association, as long as there is a free marketplace for banking with real options. However, even then it does still make a compulsory partition in that way.

Seems that case requires it for such engagements, but doesn't mandate it? If it can be refused freely, seems that would not violate?

under what circumstances do governments unconditionally force their citizens to get bank accounts?

Link URL review (lemmy.sdf.org)
submitted 6 months ago* (last edited 6 months ago) by sqw@lemmy.sdf.org to c/mlemapp@lemmy.ml
 

Anyone else want to be able to review the link text on hyperlinks? I appreciate how they are called out in a list below the post, but they only show the link text and not the href link. I would like to see whether the link leads to e.g. an untrusted or disliked URL without opening it.

 

Anyone else seeing mlem login issues? Guess my instance may have updated. I was getting a parse error on my user page, tried reinstalling/relogging but now cant log in with mlem. works ok on the webservice, though.

I will check bug reports for this but I noticed mlem refreshes the feed when you change from portrait to landscape or vice-versa. Happens when trying to switch aspects while viewing an image, which loses the image, which is Very Annoying. Anyone else have same experience?

 

Does anyone have a recommendation for home gamer bike repair stands? I’d like to find an inexpensive one that stows away easily or otherwise doesnt take too much space. Since I only need it maybe once or twice a year I can do without the hard core bike shop level of durability. For my needs it just needs to hold the bike off the floor so I can do derailer adjustments.

Unicomp again? (lemmy.sdf.org)
submitted 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago) by sqw@lemmy.sdf.org to c/keyboards@lemmy.sdf.org
 

i have a Unicomp ps2 keyboard that I've been using for about 25 years that seems to be nearing the end of its service life. it gave me a scare a few years back so i bought a cherry mx board as a backup but the thing gave me doublestrikes all the time so that's not a long-term solution for my next iteration. considering going for another unicomp since i like the chonkyness of it. i always think about a keyboard i encountered back in the 90s that had a special MACRO section onboard, and the old SIIG ALPS keyswitch keyboards. anyone used one of those new-fangled optical keyswitch boards?
