You would think that the public wouldn’t support a war the US wages on the public.

Don’t they have his foreskin saved as a religious artefact? Like in some church somewhere because it performs miracles?

Isn’t the wallet thing kinda backwards though? Like, it’s not as if we all had wallets perfectly sized to carry this kind of paper money before the paper dollar was introduced.

I figure that if coins had been the predominant form of currency for at least the past century, we’d have a great way to carry coins other than a pouch, and paper money would be inconvenient.

You know, because the only people crossing the border are Mexicans. And Mexican cartels have been the only driver of emigration.

Maybe not, but spending too much time near the coast lines could do it.

I feel like these billionaires are afraid of the shitshow we call capitalism collapsing and they’re willing to throw money at the problem so they can keep it going and stay in power.

Can you just imagine being able to see what is available on all services from one interface, all at once, and then start a stream of it seamlessly from whichever you movie profile page you have access to?

When I was little, we used to have a box plugged into the CRT TVs of the time that, when connected to a network, would allow you access to something similar to what you’re saying. Typically, you’d be able to open an electronic program guide to see a menu that displayed all the different services that you’re subscribed to and be able to switch between streams seamlessly. Granted, the biggest difference is that the individual service providers had a set schedule as to what was streaming at the time, so if you missed content scheduled at a certain time, you’d hope they’d rebroadcast it at some point.

Maybe we could have something similar, but with the ability to pick anything from each individual service providers’ library on demand?

Although there was a problem with this system, but I don’t really remember what it was. The service providers banded together and started raising prices, I think? But, then again, aren’t they doing something similar now?

Could this possibly lead to Amazon Storefronts? They definitely sell enough stuff to fill a mall

Be the change you want to see in the world.
