I mean, what do you want us to do? Index tax taxes or make them percentage based so they don’t go 33 years being eaten away by inflation? Create a system that actually pays for the roads it needs to exist instead of saddling the future with massive debt? Not make it legally difficult to impossible for any alternative forms of transport to exist or at least be usable by sane people? That all sounds impossible. /s
Classic Fortune, sowing the seeds of blaming labor for every problem. Though, they should be careful because these Hynix/Samsung stories are showing the world how much the parasite class cheats workers. You suppose Micron workers who thought they had a good deal making high five-figures are looking at these bonuses and suddenly developing class consciousness?
There’s this cool new thing where you can search for stuff on the Internet. You should check it out. To answer your question, yes - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Button,_Button_(The_Twilight_Zone)
The Chinese probably gave them normal gifts, pins, and phones because why waste money on tech when top secret files are stored in the bathroom and POTUS tweets sensitive information?
Nice idea, but you’d never get funding. So lean into it. Instead of remaking flops, demake them. Redo Battlefield Earth or Waterworld on a half million dollar budget. As the world watches your film with effects that would make Sharknado blush they will finally ask “what is art?”
Depends what you mean. If, as the commentators appear to be assuming, you mean you lost a yelling match with the worst person imaginable at lunch then no, not a great idea to change your mind. If, as someone who assumes you are a reasonable competent human would, you mean a specific point which has been thoroughly examined for some time, then yes, change your mind.
I just want to apologize, as this is largely my fault. There was a blowout clearance on Easter Candy and I went in all. Having gained 924 metric tons over the past few weeks, I’m throwing the averages way off.
Sounds like a problem one of our super genius god brain billionaires should be able to solve before lunch.
Sorry if this is a stupid question, but shouldn’t something generating the heat of several atom bombs be utilized as a heat source for making energy, instead of energy used to cool it?
Sounds about right. Think how many trained medical professionals who should be tending to patients had to spend time tending to private insurance for just this one case. Now multiply it by every single case, some more than others. We talk about a medical professional shortage in the USA when simply freeing them from insurance timesinks would be an immediate, huge jump in available work hours and morale.
Why is the butt plug room so small? Are we even serious about fighting fascism?
Brutal self own for Lemmy
I had a similar thought about Bill Clinton’s dick back when we learned that Trump sucked him off. I know Bubba was POTUS, but people seemed to be lining up to blow him. His penis must be immaculate, whatever that means.
Because outlawing vaccines can’t bring you a mojito by the pool? Also, while that’s a bold plan to eradicate the poors, all of human history up until vaccines were created suggests it might not work.
Facebook will announce some new feature, spin up a few million more bots, and have a glowing report for the investors next month.
Did Bernie read my Terminator fanfic? The one where the 1% are living it up on some islands with T800 butlers while the Terminators clear out the rest of humanity?
In Jon’s defense, Reddit was fairly good and useful (unlike Twitter or FB) at one point many years ago. If you’re not active there it would be easy to think things are still good.
I would be more suspicious of starting the year at 3.5% and dipping to 2.23% in Feb. If we ignore that oddity it makes for a less exciting headline, but jumping from 3.5% to 5.33% in the months after Microslop canned Win10 and slopped up Win11 tracks.
I hope you are correct. If we extrapolate out, Linux could easily approach 10% as more people leave Win10 and split. There may even be a positive feedback loop where people leaving Win10 (and frustrated Win11 users) see that Linux is completely viable for gaming.
You know where would be a great spot for a data center? Martha’s Vineyard.
