Or like games, even semi-casual ones. Civ6 would not load at all on my mac mini. Also had to fairly frequently close browser windows as I ran out of memory.

But you also need to be able to speak French well. If not it would be my number 1 country :-)

But you have to make up the costs somehow. It's like websites, all the cheapest one are full of scammy ads and tracking software. Most cheaper phones will just get revenue from selling users info instead.

Often laws are long winded and hard to understand so some confusion can be understandable. This is two lines and straightforward. "Yes, but I choose to ignore those parts."

That's not useless though. It would drive the price up making it easier to scale up on renewables.

The extreme dictators like Stalin, Hitler etc are so far out that it doesn't really make sense to call them either. Edit: It is also meaningless. I didn't like Trump but he was/is obviously nothing like Hitler or even Pinoche

You cannot use heartland institute as a source. If the claim is that it is leftwing because they are supported by the working class than the republican party is leftwing/socialist which is hard to take seriously. As for your question t

I think this is obviously the right answer. There have clearly been left wing avd right wing authoritarians in history. These days in, western countries at least, most authoritarian are right wing. Trump and the conservative party in the UK

It's like the geico commercials: you could save up to x% on your car insurance if you switch to Geico. It says nothing, there are two weasel word exceptions in there.

I’m not saying that is in any way right or pleasant. I’m saying that is not censorship and there are important distinctions.

That’s the BMW X1 and x2 right? I feel the “correct” answer is that the X1/2 is actually minis not a proper BMW since they are built on the “mini” platform and are front wheel driven.

No, fact checkers gives data and hopefully sources and explain why a statement is believed to be true or false. The original statement can still be seen. Censoring usually completely removes the statement with usually no justification (perh

In my opinion that is obviously false and extremely silly. So if a news channel says for example the 49ers lost and another won there is a fact there and it is in the news. Similar for budgets, elections etc. Most of news are facts. Plane w

Not really, the government can also fund extra to the payouts. Preload with deficit spending.

Or you know payments are reduced. The taxes were not a contract, the government can change the terms at any time. If at all possible it would probably be best to freeze payouts and let inflation solve the issue.

Ponzi schemes have a fairly specific definition, social security is just a tax that we pretend is going to yourself when you get old. In reality it is just a tax paid by workers and some amount of the government's budget is used to pay

Totalt agree, I personally took up valuable hospital space after a biking accident. I feel not taking the vaccine is a bit different but cannot really express this in an objective way so I guess it is not.

Isn't this mostly due to burdensome requirements which means most apps would have to remove features and the fact that they don't support upgrades? At least those are the arguments I have seen to not put the apps in the mac store.

That’s the story of how it started. Australia is a rich country, once this happened they could have paid whatever it takes to get enough Pfeizer/Moderna. The price almost don’t matter, it is so cost effective it’s insane. If we could f
