I’ve had one of these for years.

This article cites a meta study of 4 others.

Your saying they aren’t arrogant assholes?

Do people expect the price to go down?
I’m confused

I think you should pay more attention. There were a bunch of people outside today. Republicans have been loosing every special election since Rump was swarn in again. People are working on it, how they can.

I did see that myself while writing.
Decided to go with it.

I mean, from the users point of view, nothing happened.

A Dr. providing compassionate euthanasia assistance.

Not really. Religion is pretty universally built on certainty. Science is entirely best current ideas and more questions.

Hubris is un-earned arrogance. Or arrogance from ignorance.
Some people are appropriately arrogant. It’s annoying as fuck, but you can’t argue with their results.

Bad title. Not a delivery.
Just a drive around the campus to see if it works.

It’s a security feature. They don’t actually do anything. But nobody who’s not supposed to sit there knows that. When you touch both of them to see what they do, you’re instantly disintegrated.

Like Amazon undercutting dipers to take over and then raise the prices. China is doing similar on the scale of nations. They want to be the next US in 50ish years. They’re using economics to do it.

China is intentionally undercutting the rest of the world in clean energy tech, to establish a global monopoly. They see how important it will be, and want the world to be dependent on China for its energy.

People need to be okay paying for things online.

Communick is a paid fediverse provider.
I pay $30/year because I believe it’s worth paying for.

It makes sense for different servers to have different financing models. Ads I’m sure will have their place. But I imagine they won’t be popular.

Can you see me?
Which one am I?

Cutting features doesn’t cut costs as much as you might think.
LED strips are very cheap. Going back to real buttons costs more than touchscreens, not less.

Chinese vehicles are so much cheaper for lots of reasons. From cheaper labor generally, to actual under the counter government subsidies.

A couple times a year when they run sales, you see no more than one popup per app. It’s a fraction of what you see on any other ad driven service, and quite reasonable.

I don’t know how long it’s been since I’ve use a default launcher.
Over 15years at least.

NO TAXES!?!
I never said anything close to no taxes! I said the opposite of no taxes!

I said the purpose of taxes isn’t what people think it is.
Governments don’t need to take money so they have money to spend.

That doesn’t remotely mean I don’t want taxes, or taxes aren’t necessary.
Taxes are absolutely necessary!
Taxes are the flip side of government spending.

The government spends into the economy with one hand, and taxes out of the economy with the other hand. Taxes are the real inflation control.

99% of that is correct. That is exactly what governments do. You understand exactly what I’m saying also.

The one part that’s wrong is tiny, but absolutely foundational to what I’m saying,

What governments do, doesn’t necessarily correlate with how things work. What they do, and have done for centuries, could be wrong.

I’m arguing that it is wrong. I’m saying that everyone has been running their economies and making monetary policy decisions based on wrong ideas, since fiat currencies were invented.
