I got a paperlike screen protector from Amazon warehouse. When it arrived it had obviously been ripped off another iPad Pro and set on the floor. There was a pubic/pet/?? Hair under it and it was obviously unusable. Of course it s

I’m going to assume this is a serious question, although if not serious go to r/wsb and have fun making Robinhood founders & Big Daddy Elon even more wealthy. If it is I’d first look at your current positions and see if you owe any

Nothing. It’s a jobs program same with the F-35 as China/Russia/Iran doesn’t want to start a war, they would much prefer to cause chaos in the elections. When we can spend way too much money on these corporate welfare vehicles, bu

C) We will develop anti-aging treatments due to increased funding of SENS and similar projects. Combine that with a universal basic income and robots and you get a much better picture of the future. Edit: we are also not taking into account

There is a difference. You can make fun of Trump/McConnel all day long, and no one cares because it is our free speech. Try putting a Xi Jinping blimp up in Beijing and see how fast you get arrested. Try being a minority religion in Ch

Windows: the NSA is going to be able to access your computer if they want. You have to explicitly opt out of data collection for advertising in the windows 10 setup. Linux: There is still data collection in chrome(ium) but not like windows.

Well you can now look for plans on the state health insurance webpages. That does provide some amount of transparency but not for actual service pricing. But it is a bandaid on the original problem that you need to disassociate healthcare f

Yeah it’s readily gotten bad. University of Washington/Seattle flu study actually had to start testing people for Covid first.

That 15% would need to be distributed evenly among workers otherwise it doesn’t amount to much. That is only $5055 for the $33k real personal income from the fed https://free.stlouisfed.org/series/MEPAINUSA672N That $5

If you come from a demographic making the lowest amount of money e.g. 41k/yr per the article would it not make sense to do a career with a more immediate reward? PhD is for people with trust funds who can afford to take a 50-60k postdo

That market independence is the major benefit of a pension. The other not talked-about benefit is that a public pension is doing the investing and maintaining the financial discipline for you. Most people in the United States are not capab

I do believe it, it was really bad traffic that day too from Renton to the udistrict. Dudes wife was a pharmacist (trained at UW), we talked about some random biotech stuff so I’m 99% sure he wasn’t lying. This is not that common but some p

I do agree with the possibility of uses for this kind of technology, however at least in the United States, health insurance is largely tied to ones employer which makes it impossible to switch insurance companies.

Walked though it yesterday, wearing a mask. The majority of people are also wearing masks and seem to be peaceful. Mostly a bunch of protestors and people milling about. There was one argument right by the speaker, but it didn’t look viole

Sort of. Lots of Uber drivers already had a car, phone, and commute that they could make and extra $20 each day on if they drove an extra 15min out of their way. This isn’t too much but over a month would add up. Of course now that COVID is

If COVID can’t spread as well due to higher heat and wind that would be great. But literally this evening I saw the same thing again walking around with the thousand protestors in close proximity to the police. According to the CDC the last

I agree with this statement. At least here in Seattle the protesters and police are packed closely together and are yelling at oneanother. Very few if any police are wearing masks (I was ~20ft from anyone & wearing a mask but wanted to

I think Jeff Bezos or another random Billionaire should do a $100MM chest next. Would be great for getting people outside.

Craigslist in-person in front of a bank or police station is the way to go. The rest mostly tend to be scammers or people who will waste your time.

I’d be curious about the potential for remote work in somewhere like NW or even central Mexico for remote positions? It would be possible to use zoom meetings for most things and when Covid is over it’s not that far from most places on the

The whole situation with governments and banks imposing these restrictions in currencies is kinda nuts. IMO we should just use a worldwide crypto as currency that actually works [like monero] and doesn’t care about imaginary lines on a map

There will be some retailers and airlines who do go bankrupt, and we might see a shift to more teleworking for white-collar workers but apart from that even if there is a second wave this fall it will still be remembered 5 years from now as

Being able to purchase a house and land for 1/4 or less of a similar city price is attractive, and having access to rural PUD-built fiber can be attractive. But the sticking point would be the lack of rural school systems for many look

I don’t see any mention of background testing of Tesla workers. Testing everyone combined with guaranteed paid leave and a very strong statement from executives on non-retaliation for actually taking the leave will be just about the only wa
