  There’s VERY few services that the luxury of choice is not again for. A lot of the times that’s simply an excuse

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Could a minority in US Senate essentially disolve the federal state?⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s insane that such a pivotal rule is removal by simple majority

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Do you think The Boys is an accurate representation if real people had superpowers?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  In reality, the ones who didn’t care would outnumber the ones who did.

  That’s not true. Most people care about public perception. From dictatorships to narcissists to normal people

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What even is money at this point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I eat both. A poor man’s meal variety, rice, beans, and sourdough (water, flour, salt)

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What even is money at this point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Flour is worth an entire cabinet or shelf. One of the cheapest ways to eat possible

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What even is money at this point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  When you pay rent. When you pay the bank. Most of paying is for labor, yes, a crazy amount more than most people realize. But the wealthy skim some off the top, and that portion isn’t paying for labor.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What even is money at this point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Case in point. If you’re buying a 2 pound flour bag you’re scamming yourself lol

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What even is money at this point⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  If 1 kg of flour is 2$ but a small piece of bread is 7$ you know it’s a scam…

  This is ignoring labor costs and possible artisan experience, depending on where you buy bread. Also funny because paying $2 for a kg of flour would be a crazy scam; that’s more expensive than even the some of the fancier flour brand

  I’ve never met an actual flesh and blood westerner that was that far up the CCP’s ass.

  I’ve met one. They are very rare, but very voca

  Beautiful wilderness , long hiking, a decent amount of trains, world-class museums, an expanding network of intercity bike paths, lake for fun, there’s plenty of destinations to be had.

  Anyone who says that doesn’t know.the Midwest

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s even the appeal of Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  For desktops, I would assume most people are building their own, yes.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s even the appeal of Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Windows does not come with a desktop, unless you’re buying pre built, in which case you don’t mind spending extra money for the same product

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s even the appeal of Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  That’s for laptops, not desktops

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What’s even the appeal of Linux?⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  Seriously, do people pay for windows? I’ve transitioned one copy I got on my laptop a dozen years ago through a few separate pc builds. And duplicated another key, which was quite easy

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨YOU HAVE NO POWER HERE⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  No.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨China has built the world’s largest bullet-train network⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨[deleted]⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  It’s absolutely significant. Not to the point of being a deal breaker, but it is significant.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨California is debating whether or not to remove the bike lane on the Richmond-San Rafael Bridge. During the public hearing, a politician was driving his car⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨month⁩ ago⁩:

  If billionaires always could win unions wouldn’t exist.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Epic just won its Google lawsuit again, and Android may never be the same⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m hoping that supreme court is too tech deaf to even understand the implications this has on corps, and so that they don’t take this ruling back

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And nothing of value was lost⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Why do you think considering someone human is mutually exclusive with wishing death upon them/thinking it’s fine for them to die.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And nothing of value was lost⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Yes, it does. Because when you don’t acknowledge someone, you start pretending they shouldn’t have any rights at all, and then you can fall victim, far more easily, when they scapegoat someone, or fall victim to that hatred being redirected to an invalid target

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨And nothing of value was lost⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago⁩:

  Are you incapable of fighting someone you consider human?
