When I walk in to a public men’s bathroom I hear a lot of noises I don’t hear in my own house, I often wonder what’s going on with other peoples bodies given I only know my own experience, clearly we’re all very different ;-)

For me at least the ever increasing DPI increases have just not been worth the extra expense, I see 4K is better than my 1080 TV but i don’t care enough about it to spend the money to upgrade. I imagine the dirt cheap DVDs are more preferab

Best thing about streaming subscriptions vs cable IMHO is NO ADS - I find it baffling people spend a hundred bucks a month on cable and still accept like 30% of the airtime is ads…. just no

Yeah completely agree, we all do harm and benefits to the world/society. I’m not making a moral judgement at all. I wanted to comment on the process of how people think (or don’t think) about the reasons they do or don’t eat things (li

All of that can be true (I’m not saying it is) yet it still doesn’t matter. I am perfectly healthy guy who doesn’t eat meat and doesn’t need to.

Stock price is tanking, probably because they started a movement and now they have 100 competitors and own brand labels competing… there’s more choice than ever. “Price” is a premium because vegetarians will pay a premium for something by u

Genuine question.. how did you go from “Personally I don’t like a thing” therefore “humans evolved to eat meat” Personally I don’t like peaches… does that mean humans evolved to eat meat? Honestly it sounds like you tried 1 product, didn’t

Then they don’t want to continue this conversation because they don’t want to internalise what they’re feeling and REALLY actually think about their choices because if I think I might have to change, and then comes the very human feeling of

Mushrooms aren’t “real food”? Yes it’s processed with some additions, but so is a meat sausage. Talking more broadly, not about OP. It seems a lot of people have this cognitive dissonance (I don’t know what to call it exactly) about what fo

Buy/Sell an options spread? Risk is capped at the size of the spread x your stake. Theta decay is offset somewhat.

You see this in competitive dinghy racing. One person will intentionally starve their competitor of good air, so they know and could do the opposite if they wanted. Lots of sports deal with this “dirty air” concept like Formula 1 especially

I tried the first video, I bought a broken old tv off marketplace… guess what… the lens didn’t work and I had no use for the LEDs… so I had a broken old tv I’d ripped apart that I had to dispose of and some new LEDs I wasted money on… I gue

So we think staff will work 100% for 4 days? Presumably the lost 20% is making tea, chatting to coworkers about sports, checking personal messages, pooping etc, seems unlikely that behaviour would change and productivity get to 100%. So 100

The UK is at more or less the same price as it was in 2000. France same as 2008. Meanwhile SPY is up 2.75x in that period. The US seems to be the anomaly. Value doesn’t always go higher. Maybe the USA is special, maybe not.

It’s also dependent on what those 1000 are. Is it 1 app x 1000 instances or is it 500 apps x 2 instances. The former with 1 or 2 different apps, not much would change, when you run lots of different apps though, then configuration of routes

Seems the problem is supply. Build more. Problem solved? Why don’t we build more? Politics, locals often don’t want more housing near them so you can’t get a permit to build… many people in life don’t want change and oppose it as they only

If you need to cut cable because you can’t afford some expenses is that not the definition of “unable to pay bills” the article mentions?
