You don’t need to a passport to visit Massachusetts. Also, not my state.
Here are the valid IDs to purchase alcohol in the state:
- Massachusetts Driver’s License;
- Massachusetts Liquor Identification Card;
- Massachusetts Identification Card;
- Passport issued by the United States or a government that is officially recognized by the United States;
- Passport Card for a Passport issued by the United States;
- United States Military Identification Card;
My information though was slightly dated… And since April of 2025:
- Valid Driver’s License issued by another state; and
- Global Entry Card issued by United States Customs and Border Protection
Before April of last year, out of state driver’s licenses were a valid ID to purchase alcohol in the state of Massachusetts.

Yes beer as well. Massachusetts is incredibly anal about IDing. If you’re from out of state you better have a passport, even for American citizens.

Driver license? I don’t have one, I used my health care card. Which, yeah, is just as sensical ;)
Massachusetts has liquor license IDs.

Why would a retailer turn down an additional resource that drives customers to their site.
Why would independent artisans be obligated to sell their products through Amazon?

You’re telling me the US had the capability to eliminate any of the worst ones in much more problematic countries and chose not to because there was no oil in it for them? That’s a grim thought.
The call was always coming from inside the house.
- Comment on Self hosting with subdomains 4 weeks ago:
A solutrly. Simply use ACME with the DNS validation method. Using bind you’ll want to create keys and allow TXT access for those keys to the validation domains. That’s all you need the actual domain doesn’t need to be resolvable with an A/CNAME record. Internally you can run an entirely different DNS server to resolve your hosts, use hosts files, or use bind zones.
- Comment on Self hosting with subdomains 4 weeks ago:
Except it isn’t. Saying is trivial is just gross generalization. It’s trivial to configure bind to have internal zones that aren’t resolvable publically. It all depends on configuration, such as reverse ns entries, zone accessibility, etc.
- Comment on Self hosting with subdomains 4 weeks ago:
It’d be better and more accurate say the list of certificates then.
Sub domains aren’t public unless your DNS server has XFER on.
- Comment on Self hosting with subdomains 4 weeks ago:
Worth noting about this approach is that the global list of subdomains is publicly searchable.
Can you expand on this? What is it that you call the “global list of subdomains”?

- Comment on How cold is too cold for storing in a garage? 5 weeks ago:
It should be fine to well bellow freezing, you just want to make sure it heats back up slowly(ish) and try to prevent condensation. Most electronics is rated to -20°C for storage.
- Comment on NPM Package With 56K Downloads Caught Stealing WhatsApp Messages 1 month ago:
Have you ever looked at the available packages in a Linux distribution like Debian or a BSD? There are thousands and thousands of library packaged to support software releases. Like I said, that had been the distribution model for the better of twenty+ years until this new, shittier, model.
- Comment on NPM Package With 56K Downloads Caught Stealing WhatsApp Messages 1 month ago:
That’s essentially how most distributions of Linux and Unix work. You package an app with a list of depencies like “libcaca >= 1.2.3” and that’s that. If that dependency isn’t available in the distro you need to have that packaged (and thus have a maintIner for said package) forst. The distro’s package maintainers are responsible for keeping an eye on the upstream sources and provide reviews. Then this sort of crap like NPM came along and it became popular for devs to package their own dependencies.
- Comment on NPM Package With 56K Downloads Caught Stealing WhatsApp Messages 1 month ago:
I’m not super familiar with Maven so I could be wrong, but doesn’t Maven still pull depencies from upstream? That doesn’t fix the problem. Having depencies packaged in the OS means there is in theory some level of overview and review by the package maintainer(s).
- Comment on NPM Package With 56K Downloads Caught Stealing WhatsApp Messages 1 month ago:
Debian does as well for anything that is packaged. For python, golang, rust, etc as well.
- Comment on NPM Package With 56K Downloads Caught Stealing WhatsApp Messages 1 month ago:
The first issue is NPM specific sure, but the second is true of all the languages I mentioned. Even golang which originally had a goal of having a built in library so vast you didn’t need much depencies has devolved into a large and fractured community.
- Comment on NPM Package With 56K Downloads Caught Stealing WhatsApp Messages 1 month ago:
This truly has grown past a JS problem. NPM was kind of the first time dependencies were installed by the project rather than through the OS. But nowadays this has become the norm, golang, rust, and to an extent python also work by installing dependies directly from git for the most part. This isn’t going to get any better unless with revert to OS based dependencies which noone wants to do because developers want the latest and greatest model.

- Comment on People are completely used to autotune in music now, and the same will happen with ai usage 2 months ago:
autotune does not make a bad singer good
This is precisely what autotune DOES. You’re confusing the creative usage of autotune to create a specific sound, like what T-Pain (an actually great signer) popularized. But autotune wasn’t created for that, it was specifically created for correcting signers who can’t keep a key.
