That’s true. Skin color is especially meaningful in the US, where privilege, opportunity, education, and many other aspects of life fall mainly along racial lines. In america, race is inextricably tied to skin color. I’m a little disappoint

I mean, if you think you can get max diversity of ideas without also pulling people from different cultures, you’ve been around way too many white men.

Hmm, I’m not so sure we should allow people to sell fentanyl pops or cocaine to kids without going to prison. Not arguing against your point broadly, but that’s exactly the type of response that would sink an effort to remove imprisonment f

Right, but we’re discussing walmart.com vs amazon.com because walmart.com doesn’t have the crazy low prices that the retail store does. You’re absolutely right you can easily undercut amazon at sam’s club, so (eg) why can’t walmart.com matc

This isn’t necessarily hard or bad, though. If I take $100 and loan it to my neigbor, the debt appears from nowhere. Heck, theoretically, he could loan it right back under different terms and create more debt. Debt isn’t necessarily bad—the

Really? Free and open source software—in this case, an unencumbered ISA—seems like an easy parallel to communally managed means of production. Of course an implementation would be far more useful, as it would be the likely target for lawsui

Right, but then why buy from walmart if the competitive price is gone (as shown in the original example of online vs retail price)? If it’s just a single region agnostic price plus some location sensitive fee, they’re just another branded e

Right, but that makes the online component even more confusing. Why would you ever order from walmart.com if they don’t offer those competitive prices? Amazon has plenty of stock, more than walmart can compete with. I can’t buy notebooks fr

What the hell are they doing spying on american citizens? The people you’ll attract are the people attracted to abusing said power. Good luck weeding out the creeps; let’s hope only a few die as the result of beuracratic negligence.
