Most people tend to buy the imperfect cheap product rather than the better, more expensive product.
If we refused to buy crap, they wouldn’t make it. If we refused to buy it, they couldn’t make it.
They sell us crap because collectively we prefer it.
Yes. Otherwise we have to call them sparkling fascist.
Can we agree that until it doesn’t happen to anyone, it should happen to this guy?
It’s not really lost. If it sank in dock, it’s right there only lower.
Their success is not because people don’t see through their bullshit. It’s because the people opposing them have to follow the rules.
They also believe that everyone else is too stupid to put it together. They think they’re such geniuses that they will be able to cover their tracks and convince everyone that it’s the brown people’s fault.
Yeah, kind of seems appropriate.
I’m ready to weep from this.
Every time any problem comes up, my current manager insists we must use Excel to solve it.
Cremation doesn’t burn everything to ash. Pieces of bone are left intact and must be mechanically pulverized to make the remains a powder.
When my dad’s dog was cremated many years ago, the remains they gave us were partially ash, but the larger pieces hadn’t been pulverized. It still had many intact pieces of bone. We could see evidence of some injuries and degenerative disease the dog had experienced in his hip and spine.
I’m not sure how many people would be down for rooting through their pet’s remains for proof that it is the right animal.
I’m white. This fucking turd doesn’t speak for me.
I didn’t have the option to have my bank send it in, but I printed a check for each kid each month to cover school lunch costs. I don’t know what it cost them to process the checks, but it wasn’t all that inconvenient for me to do. If there had been a no-cost way to load funds online I would have done it, but it wouldn’t have been much more convenient for me. I’m not going to pay extra to make it easier for them.
Whenever anyone talks about how high interest rates are now, I remember when my wife and I bought our house in 1997. We were pre-approved for a 30-year fixed rate mortgage at 7.5%, and we were told to take it.
What we were actually told was, "you’ll never see a rate this low again.
Yeah, that’s what I meant. Ask the women in your life for advice.
What do your woman friends say?
Because Trump’s been an idiot all along. With Biden there was a decline, so they could claim he was no longer competent. Trump was never competent, so any decline doesn’t really matter much.
Yeah, I meant “guaranteed”
the US doesn’t give their citizens the same rights as those in other countries receive.
The U.S. doesn’t give their citizens the same rights that the U.S. constitution has.
When people ask me why I like Linux, my go-to reason is my main personal machine. I use it for everything I do outside of work, including running my Emby server.
I built it from $500 worth of parts 13 years ago. I’ve kept updating the os and applications. It’s starting to slow down a bit after the last os upgrade, but it’s still plenty usable.
I am getting concerned about the spinning platters. As far as I am aware, Linux won’t prevent an ancient hard disk drive from reaching the natural end of is life.
It’s probably time to move on to a new machine. Well, new motherboard, CPU, RAM, and disks at least.
We all knew it, but confirming it seemed like the right thing to do.
