I had a similar situation when working for Amazon as a non-Amazon employee. Super shitty laptop. My theory is that they want shitty laptops because it dissuades people from keeping them, and hypothetically keeping sensitive information on t

This is the same defense Jon Stewart always used. "It's a comedy show". I'm not sure whether you're a credible news source absolves you of responsibility of spreading harmful misinformation. He has a huge platform a

Fuel prices are high. Housing is high. Food is high. Car prices are high. Education expenses are high. Healthcare expenses are high. Literally everything we spend most of our money on is outrageously expensive.

My entirely uninformed guess is that life on Earth is probably fairly representative of how life forms on any similar planet. Throughout evolution there are endless ways life could have formed, and we're the product of whatever method

>Case in point: give out $1000 dollars in UBI, expect rents increase by about that amount within the next 2 years as current leases expire. I see no evidence that this would be the case

It comes across as pretty ridiculous for this to be a popular news article. It's only noteworthy because it's Tesla and news outlets know it generates hate clicks. Cars having problems on delivery, regardless of brand, happens al

A lot of people are single or close to single issue voters. So there is policy discussion but it's usually extremely shallow

My guess is most of these big dollar NFT stories are fake. People are making the claims or buying from themselves to attract attention so they can sell NFTs at big amounts to suckers

I live a couple blocks from CHOP/CHAZ. There was no destruction. I got my haircut every couple weeks at a business inside CHOP. Everything was and still is entirely normal.

The comment you're replying to is an example of what they meant by Trump derangement syndrome. People convince themselves of things that are blatantly just not accurate because "orange man bad".

How much of the $3.8T is profits that don't need to exist? Why should public medicine be for-profit when public education isn't? Why does no one complain that the military doesn't turn a profit yet also costs nearly a trillio

The default way still being women that get the children doesn't really change that the dynamic that gender versus child support is not meaningfully any different than the 1920s. Women's share of child support has gone from, I assu

Men pay ~95% of the dollars given/taken for child support in this country. It applies to women but only in a very very marginal way. Men going from >99% to 95% of child support costs isn't really a noteworthy change and doesn&#

Underground is safer, less prone to accidents (trees falling), take less space, reduces deaths and injuries by car accident (cars hitting poles), less maintenance due to not being exposed to elements, and of course the aesthetic aspect. Hon

It is tremendously difficult to eat a balanced, healthy diet for people who lack the motivation or desire to cook and eat subjectively boring foods. I know this will probably strike a nerve in some people that perfectly enjoy salads, chicke
