I believe it would have been winlink or amprnet. I think winlink really only does low bandwidth things like email and weather bulletins. Not sure about amprnet

I'm a bit late, but I used to testify in DUI cases and have sat through many court sessions.

First, you didn't commit a crime, you made an oopsie. Don't stress out too much, a lot of people just don't show up, you're a light in the dark for just showing up.

Wear nice clothes, put together the best you can with what you have, don't go buy a suit for traffic court. Slacks and a collared shirt (no visible holes or worn spots) is typically enough, especially if you're living paycheck to paycheck. Save your money for fixing the situation, not looking nice. Looking nice does help and shows respect to the court (judge) but trying to fix things on your own without them intervening makes you look even better.

Explain that you made a mistake and accidentally let it lapse. Talk to the public defender if you can. They are overloaded with cases but will help, court proceedings and the language they can use is confusing.

Try to make amends now, renew your license, sign up for whatever you need to sign up for, if you can't afford to renew let the judge know that you're walking/biking/bussing to work until you can afford to renew/sign up/etc. Ask the court for mercy since you have a clean record to the best of your knowledge and are already taking steps to remedy the situation.

Be very nice, the judge is the law in their courtroom, the only person with more power is the court stenographer because they get to correct the judge.

Bring receipts or any proof that you have of what you're doing.

As many have said DO NOT DRIVE YOURSELF TO COURT.

Who gets to decide what's moral or competent? We've been there, it doesn't end up well. It's better to have a good public education system.

I had to dig deep to find this:

an average EV battery degrades at 1.8% per year, it will still have over 80% state of health after 12 years, generally beyond the usual life of a fleet vehicle.

You still have to assume they're using average fleet vehicles use as their comparison, but at the same time also that they're using 80% battery as comparable.

Meanwhile in Albuquerque we've made buses free because the fare infrastructure costs more than to run the buses.

There's also that pesky low r/w bitrate.

Your package is being delivered!

Because it isn't a lawful order. License and registration are all that's required for a traffic stop. If the officer had probable cause that a crime had been committed, then it would be a lawful order, but they didn't. Therefore, his rights were violated.

You gave a snarky response implying that there aren't ads on Ubuntu and they replied with confirmation from a developer that they'll be forcing ads on ubuntu.

Are you still arguing that canonical isn't serving ads on Ubuntu? Or are you just being an ass because you were proven wrong?

It was a homemade blank, using hot glue to "hold it all together". I'm guessing the poor kid got a plug of hot glue in his shoulder.
