For the application of sales tax to all purchases including stock and the abolition of capital gains tax. give vertically integrated businesses an edge Why is that bad? Vertical integration allows the more efficient use of resources.

It all seems rather geared towards funneling money upward instead of downward. Individuals pay taxes on gross income, while businesses only pay taxes on net profit. A poor person makes a big purchase in the form of a new computer or televis

The "answers" from Google Search have always been totally useless, always. You search a question like "What could be the problem if my software is doing X but not Y" and every single time you'll get an answer that s

Good luck to them. I'm tired of all this prioritization, bundled services not counting against data caps, and using angry e-mails to make Tier-1 providers null-route websites.

Not to mention picking a Pixel phone has always meant making hardware choices you may or may not find acceptable. It used to mean being stuck with a muddy POLED display and bizarre hardware issues that crop up four months in. Now it means a

In my opinion you should tailor your speech to your audience. Your audience getting the correct meaning is more important than them hearing the correct words. You should say things in such a way that they'll be correctly interpreted. N

The minus (-) operator isn't a hard and fast rule anymore either. It's particularly galling when you want to search for something that's similar to something else that's very common.

The Johnson&Johnson logo was soft and comforting. The new one looks like a bank logo or a legal office. Horrible move when you're selling comfort products and not financial services.

What does this have to do with Sony? As far as I know, every manufacturer including Sony and Apple do their utmost to extract as much revenue from consumers as possible.

Who is "them"? Until Apple was strong-armed into launching the self-service program they didn't sell first-party replacement parts at all, let alone for seven years after launch.

Who is paying for it? Not only in terms of the chargers themselves but in terms of land usage. Installing EV chargers is a double-hit in that regard. Not only does a charger take up space that could've had a gas pump, that loss is mult

You can't change the soul of a people by force or even by diplomacy. If you look at every nation whose culture reformed after, say, losing in WW2, their behavior during and leading up to that war was relatively different from their nor

If you want to get a handle on how the War on Terror started and how everybody felt about it, I highly recommend listening to some of the live radio shows from that morning, such as the Howard Stern show. You look back now and question how

I dropped a thousand dollars on a new card this generation to replace my GTX 1070 from 2016. Gotta say, I probably shouldn't have bothered. The old card was running modern games at 1080p60 just fine and I can't tell much differenc

I could put up with the lower performance and battery life. What I can't put up with is the trash Mali GPU drivers. Exynos devices are basically DOA for any kind of serious emulation.

To each his own I suppose, but a crash every twenty or thirty hours is, to me, a fair trade for never having frame slowdown. Save-game loss is a non-thing. Even if you managed to kill the emulator while it was saving, every save is a separa
