Right now, there's nearly a 100% chance any "Made in USA" brand is a grift, by direct members of the grifting party. I'm for the idea, done correctly. I'm completely against it in it's current form. They'r

I recommend my tax dollars actually pay for something useful to citizens instead of going directly into some oligarchs off-shore banking account.

The fact you expect it to have some sort of backing evidence, and didn't take it as a completely absurd joke, makes my point perfectly. That is not YET the case, but given how things are headed, no one would be surprised if it did actu

The US is already a bubble. Government is currently trying to make it burst as fast as possible. Getting back to the point where what women want doesn't matter again. HCOL will be a luxury term, life in debtors prisons will be the new

Too much of life is already tied to a screen. I spent the last few years sitting in front of "offline" computers seeking fun and relaxation. I got all kinds of cool stuff for Atari 2600, bought a Commander X16, even learned how to

Yeah, but it's very time consuming/impossible to find similarly skilled players for a fun lobby. The only competitive game I care to play on Linux is Rocket League, which is nearly impossible to cheat at, so it doesn't curren

I bet 100 Trump coin it'll no longer promise it ever gets made, at all, at some point. It's too costly to go past the vaporware stage. Maybe they'll do a kickstarter style thing to milk the rubes, but that'll be the end

Can't read the article but, on the surface it seems far less creepy than traditional porn. Can never be quite sure if everyone involved is there by choice, or if the money goes to the right people. I know there's already cases of

Never, because they won't shut up about them, because the goal is to exhaust everyone until they throw up their hands and just let them get their way. Stop fighting with words. Exclude them from every group, even if they're family
