Like the other person said, I never said Amazon was a saint. And guess what: stuff breaks. It happens. Returns are necessary. Making them even harder to do helps nobody. I wish decent brick and mortar stores weren't getting stomped on

> The older I get, the more I blame the internet for most of our current societal ills. Really though, a lot of it can be blamed on the advent of the internet. Which sucks, because the internet is an awesome tool.

Just gonna end up making it harder for the rest of us to return our crap. This is an organized theft setup, not some random Joe trying to get a heater for the winter because his furnace gave out.

Well, considering Kotaku is well-known for gaming articles filled with political activism and social justice, this is not surprising at all to me.

Exactly. After a certain point, you get diminishing returns. $100 gets you probably 85-90% of the way there, which is certainly more than enough. People forget that a good mic and a good DAW do not fix a bad take. The price of the tools is

You can ignore variables if you'd like, but some other lower population states have worse per-capita stats themselves.

They don't have as much of the demographic that causes damage to property because of the religious and cultural backbone here that (decreasingly so) binds this state. For all the complaints people throw at the Mormons, standard of livi

I didn't say or act like Utah is a utopia. You invented that. Only that I don't have to pay to use bathrooms. I have my own complaints with this place too. We're gradually getting overtaken by the very things I laugh at Calif

by seanw444 3y ago
I find it funny how California causes its own issues, makes laws to fix said issues, and then causes more issues as a result. Living in Utah which tends to be a very anti-business-mandate place, and which does not have any such law, I'

Finally! I've been waiting to give this a try. I thought about adding it manually, but didn't realize it required patching and recompiling my kernel, which wasn't a worthwhile endeavour to me.

Anecdotally, my "fancy" 2500 Laramie gets plenty of hauling and towing use. A lot of people who buy these kinds of trucks like having the capability. I like knowing that if something big needs to get moved, or something messy, it

Yeah I think the right field is supposed to have some navigation components, but it's completely unpopulated.

Yeah that always confused me. Still does. I need to research it more.

Those GIFs really do make it super simple. I learned it the same. The unit circle made absolutely no sense to me, and appeared as yet another dogmatic arbitrary "rule" shoved down my throat in school. Had they made an attempt to m

Yeah I imagine it would pull the network down a lot.

And this predicament has been caused by their decades of being given special treatment via government interference.

Let's take a look at where the exponential growth of technology kicked off, and when the first actually almost-free-market began. Hmm. Quite a strong correlation.

Adults have a lot more responsibility for their actions. One of those actions is choosing to participate in a system that is widely considered harmful in multiple ways.

Leaving it up to what people are willing and capable of doing sounds as fair as can be to me. That's what competition is there for. It also is not perfect, but it is better. I expect to get dogpiled on Hacker News though. The demograph

Our laws are very similar to our medicine. We take a pill that causes a side-effect, which requires a pill to fix that side-effect but causes another side effect... so on. We start with state interference of the free market in a small way,

What comes after one side wins? Half the land, resources, population, and production? Collateral damage is in both sides' interest to avoid. We can use those tactics in other countries because we don't really care. That all change

Fox and CNN are two wings of the same bird. That I keep hearing people refer to Fox as the right-wing outlet tells me either "right-wingers" aren't caught up, or they are caught up, and the everyone else still thinks they
