I pay cents for GPT4. Please I urge everyone to stop paying this ridiculous $20 monthly fee if you just occasionally use chatGPT.

No no, please don't confuse people here. That is not what anarcho capitalism is, nor would any Mises supporter call what was described above as anarcho capitalism. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anarcho-capitalism

If I can't transfer ownership of "stuff" between the stores?(installation platforms), or if I can get banned from a "store" and lose access to precious products purchases then it is definitely a walled garden. Mayb

Have to confirm, but pretty sure I couldn't install it via steam on a fresh computer. Same account, play on original computer still, etc.

I'm as much of a fanboy of capitalism as you can get. BUT, if you can show me a system that works fairly and well with fallible and evil humans that's better, I'm 100% onboard and will go to bat for it. We just don't hav

Microgrids or micro-infrastructure will become a thing. The local need will cause infra to spider out to the nearest producers. Not the other way around.

This is like the worst of both, and has nothing to do with capitalism. This is pissing off both sides and pointing the finger at the other. How convenient. So ask yourself who stands to benefit from it in the long run.

I know you're being snarky, but yes. Having money and being genuinely generous towards people will put you on good terms with them. Just like being nice and polite and friendly and considerate, same thing.

Sounds like every debate and argument I've ever had. You push and prod their argument for a few sentences back and forth and before you know it they start getting aggressive in their responses. Probably because they know they will soon

It's fast enough that you can just check possible outcomes for whatever criterion you want.

Eclipse with PyDev had awesome support for types in python 2.* before they were a python 3 thing. It actually worked really well for the 90% usecase and was my secret weapon about a decade ago.

I honestly don't trust the stats, and this kind of analysis and "blame on politicians for lying and focusing on negatives" does not convince me. Especially with all the ensuing gaslighting that happens in response to valid cr

Not only that, but it strikes me as "secondary" law making. I.e. Bureaucrats, politicians, police chiefs, etc get the power to "repeal" laws by simply not enforcing them, under the cover of "lack of resources".

It's offence when you leave your border on go over into another country. But either way, doesn't matter what I think, it's what Elon Musk thinks as he was giving them the starlink access for free.

I'm pretty sure the reason there was the free internet access being give to Ukraine was conditional on it being used for defence only and not offence. Seems pretty reasonable to me.

I exaggerate for a reason, because I feel strongly about it and think that it does do those things in a literal sense. Besides, I've consumed tiktok and seen the content. It is nowhere near appropriate for children, it's night and

You could come up with corner cases and odd delineations for those former examples too. Yet we all know the gist of the laws and manage to somehow, on the aggregate, prevent kids from engaging in said activity. E.g. alcohol. How do we stop

While people are on the fence about it, our children are having their youth, innocence and brains destroyed by tiktok et al. Those platforms are cancer to adults even, let alone impressionable kids... yet here we are still debating it and f

How much electricity do you use? I have a low range inverter (5KW) and it can give me 4.5kw sustained power from my battery and as much as I want from the grid because it acts as a pass through. At 220V that's 20Amps, or 40A I guess wi

Incorrect, please get a hybrid with the auto-islanding feature. I literally have a whole-house UPS and barely a blip when I get a power outtage. So unless there is something magical about electricity in the USA, I'm not sure where this

by zo1 3y ago
Hybrid inverters have auto shutoff (islanding I think?) so you can merge the grid power with your solar power and there is no difference when the grid is down. Off the shelf, installed, and magically works. It acts as a glorified whole hous

Side note of a kinda similar thing happening, forgive me for the sidetrack and side-rant. PrivatePropery <- was a website in South Africa setup in a market where all real-estate sales was controlled and gate kept by real-estate agents (a

But those people are the kinds that we don't want anywhere near the good kind, nor anywhere close to our children. Hence why a lot of us feel like they should be, within reason, separated from the rest of us.

You know why he used it. We all do, we just don't want to say it for fear of thought police or because we have internalized racism.

No one is going to agree to such non-trivial impacts to their lives so long as it seems unfair. I will never give up meat, but will do so tomorrow if we blocked all mass global transportation networks, mandated fruit trees in all houses, an

Some of the "better at planning" poor people have built up crude math to make it all makes sense, but seems overly complicated for someone like me. The one I noticed: "oh, I got $85 for selling that pot I made, I'll use

We're cattle to be farmed. More heads of cattle = bigger farm. Quality of life, national identity, indigenous populations, etc all take second place to that except in lip service and politician platitudes.

What do you mean? This is a perfectly possible / valid theory, you're welcome to try poke at it if you're open to debate instead of dismissing me.

Side answer. This kind of regulation lifts GDP by mandating some sort of economic activity. A barber in a room in his house means less rental, less money for commercial real estate company, less money spent buying "commercial" cha
