Wheat is a plant. If wheat was a vegetable we wouldn’t need the distinction between plant and vegetable.

Y’all are going to hate this, but IMO a more viable solution is a subscription model. The more reliable an appliance is, the less you spend on it in the long run, so less profit for the manufacturer. With a subscription, the more reliable they make it, the more profit they get. Then you just need sufficient competition to keep the subscription prices low.

That coin is clever because some people would rather keep the coin and the coin probably costs less to make than the Big Mac.

It does have to do with different drugs in some cases. Users in a k-hole (high on ketamine) tend to lean back.

Someone’s running a pump and dump scheme on Myrrh. Once that bubble pops they just transition to Frankincense like it never happened.

Even better, you can create a “Hybrid PDF” which embeds a second copy of the file in ODT format inside the PDF. This makes it re-editable.
Word supports ODT but it doesn’t support reading these ODT files embedded in PDFs though.

- Comment on Microsoft spent two years and $1B developing the Kin mobile phone line, which failed after just 48 days in 2010(May 14-June 30) due to poor sales. They blamed Verizon for not promoting it enough 3 months ago:
The point of the Kin was that it was supposed to create a new service tier in between dumb phones and smart phones with expensive plans. At the time phones came with 2 year contracts that subsidized the cost of the phone. A basic plan came with $175 worth of subsidy which covered a dumb phone. If you added $30/month for unlimited data, you would get $350 off the the up front cost of a smart phone.
Microsoft’s idea was that parents didn’t want to pay that much for a smart phone for their teens. But a teen would get plenty of benefit for a something in between which would allow them to use a non SMS messaging service and browse social media. Plus it had a keyboard.
It’s still Verizon’s fault. But it wasn’t lack of promotion. The Kin didn’t make sense without the accompanying plan.

For the sake of argument I think you could say that you’re depriving a scavenger of a meal. I don’t know if that’s how veganism is usually framed.

In 2018, SNAP benefits supplied roughly 40 million Americans, at an expenditure of $57.1 billion.[2][3] In 2017, approximately 9.2% of American households obtained SNAP benefits at some point, with approximately 16.7% of all children living in households with SNAP benefits.[2]

In the scheme of things, the interruption of SNAP benefits was a blip. A cruel blip, but I don’t think it’s fair to say we don’t do anything.
- Comment on A hypothesis 4 months ago:
I started on a Mac from Apple’s bad days. The school computers were Windows and it felt like all the other kids had Windows computers at home. I think feeling like I was at the disadvantage probably had an effect on me that led me to Linux. Also the second family computer ran Windows ME, so…
