Not limited to TVs. Appliance repair in general has been replaced with disposable appliances. Human rights violations in countries like China is to blame for reducing the value of skilled labor.

I lived in NYC for 11 years and I felt trapped. I moved to a rural area and I’m done. Your opinions change as you age.

I left California long ago because it’s so polarized towards blue. I share different ideals and tend to get ostracized for them - not a community I want to be part of.

Yes. I have a condition that’s been associated with increased mortality from covid-19 infections. If I’m weak and can’t survive so be it. Rather me die than everyone else slowly waste away to famine.

Fuck YouTube. At first they liberated creators and gave everyone the same upload button. Now they’re a bunch of fascists pandering to a niche demographic. Being PC is fine in some cases but I firmly believe in freedom of expression / f

I’ve spent $1700 on uber eats since this covid thing started. Restaurants need help and drivers do too. I would normally think this amount of money for 6 weeks of food is nuts but I’m glad I can help. Keeping the economy going as much as po

Great! If there is any doubt I would rather see innocent people freed even if it means a few guilty people walk. Once the police like you for a crime they’ll likely find a way to make it stick. Even if it’s just circumstantial. Most people

I have 11 days of on site storage - approx 300 gallons. It’s diesel, I add stabil and polish it annually. Injectors for my 4 cylinder generator are $350/ea. Can’t fuck around

Contact tracing is a severe invasion of privacy and just another tool to increase surveillance. I will never submit to such measures.

I’m satisfied with the response - not sure what you’re so upset about. As someone who has been through more than one natural disaster the fear and panic is absolutely destructive and often worse than the event itself. Remains to be seen in

I feel the same. Talking about my angst with fellow tech workers leads to a similar conclusion: we have nobody to blame but ourselves. We’ve all made this.

A current coworker used to work at AWS and shared an anecdote. Makes sense but I’m surprised I haven’t seen it repeated: nobody wants to work on the billing code because it’s a mess and the penalty for a mistake is very high.

I’m probably in the minority but I lean towards the UK model. My suspicion is that the mortality rate is lower due to inadequate testing. Call me a cynic but after 9/11 I’m weary of temporary measures that become permanent in one way o
