Wow, that's really quite something!

What do you remember of the day you were born? How did you validate your memories?

Elites telling us? Isn't Elon the elitest of them all?

I think Tesla really had a chance to make a truly premium electric car, but they lost their way somewhere. It just feels so generic. Even the shapes of their models aren't particularly beautiful, in my opinion. It's a shame, becau

Please explain the joke! I don't understand the significance of 14x here!

Why?

Is the fact that it's down implying something?
38.
by osrec 2y ago
It seems relevant though. You want to bring such things to people's attention before they start to gain momentum, not after.

America starting to look more and more scary with each passing day. Not sure where it eventually ends up, but the trajectory doesn't look too good.

Why would they fabricate such evidence?

Regardless, but my point stands - he was heading down a bad path. Quoting from Wikipedia: The district court found by a preponderance of the evidence that Ulbricht probably commissioned the murders.[41] The possibility that Ulbricht had co

It's something I've observed personally. One example that stands out: I was playing pool in a quiet bar in a sleepy village. The next thing I know, a sixteen year old walks in and attacks another 16 year old. They are at each othe

He did also try to get someone killed. It didn't happen, but can you see how the non violent guy was slowly turning to violence too? I'm sure the initial narco kingpins were nice, non-violent people too, but rarely do the people i

Yeah, something's a little fishy about the whole thing.

To me what is weird is the "complete" pardon from a president that is supposedly going after immigrant drug dealers and murderers. Basically, if you've done something wrong, but can drum up enough support for the winning poli

I'm not sure about that. The US and China sort of need each other, at least from an economic perspective. If one faces disruption, the effect on the other is guaranteed. I'm not saying they like each other, but the relationship is

It is not the same. The Sikh culture almost mandates langar. In Hinduism it's seen as an optional extra.

As a practicing Hindu, even I feel your original comment is inaccurate. There's free food, and then there's langar. The scale, quality and motives are just so different.

Prasad is very different to langar. Langar is a full meal, served to anyone who turns up, no questions asked. Prasad is often sweet, given in much smaller quantities (hardly enough to be a full meal), and almost never served hot.

In a lot of cases, that's how it works in nature too though. Visual appeal on the tree/bush is a big part of what attracts an animal to a fruit. It's just how we're built.

I would say the differences are subtle at best.

74 seems incredibly old! Is there a chance someone has been swapping the tags to mess with the researchers?!

A gas pump relies on a significantly larger chain of infrastructure though. We just accept that it's quicker because it's already in place. No one factors in the time at the refinery etc etc. Energy delivered in the from electrici

I read somewhere that most people in the US are definitely not paycheck to paycheck. The article I read claimed it's around 15-20% of the working population.

The TV adverts really caught me off guard during my first trip to the US as an adult. The disclaimers right at the end make you wonder how the ad could ever be effective - I mean, how could anyone respond positively to an ED ad that ends wi
