I think you needed a 4th row where copilot reinstalled itself with a forced update and begs you to use it again.
- Comment on Is there a reason why toilets are made out of one of the most resonating materials possible while also being made in a shape that makes a small fart sound like a damn trombone? 1 week ago:
Like why even make them like that other than punishment. They dont need to be like that.
I get their prisoners and all, but have to hold your dick or it falls in the water seems like its above and beyond.
- Comment on Proof of life for the recently deceased 1 week ago:
I wouldnt be surprised if its on a scheduled timer to go off 1 second after the deadline, and some years later we found out that timer creation was logged and it was made the day after he was admitted to the hospital.
- Comment on They eliminated cashiers and keep the profits. NY Democrats are fighting back. 1 week ago:
Something like this is more along the right way to address something like this.
- Comment on They eliminated cashiers and keep the profits. NY Democrats are fighting back. 1 week ago:
I’m not missing the point, funny enough it seems to be you that has.
Something should be done, but this is NOT the way to do it.

If it’s written as that image describes, I don’t even think they intend to pass it, they just wanted the headlines, but that would be the ultimate goal as written if so and it passed.

Right, because if I self checkout my $200 grocery bill, that worker definitely would have made $20 in that few minute interaction.
I like the idea, but that’s a terrible implementation.

Ah, gotcha. Thanks for the clarification.
- Comment on The Dangers of Socialism they warned us about... 2 weeks ago:
Even socialism would still use eminent domain to take property, but itd likely be for something a bit better than that. Probably a highway, train, or building that is more for the public good.
- Comment on this absolute bullshit from reddit 3 weeks ago:
Think of all the horrible CSAM posts I can flood reddit with while NOT LOGGED IN! They must be in shambles!

I’ve seen some of the laziest biggest pieces of shit not get fired because we’re union.
It doesnt need to be this way, but through corruption or other means this has happened.
Like the room in NY with teachers that just sit in it all day because they cant be fired.
- Comment on Ubisoft Co-Founder Claude Guillemot Dies In Plane Crash 1 month ago:
I was just reading a story about some sky divers who died in a plane crash shortly after launch.
It said the non commercial airliner stuff isn’t held to the same standards, and whatever state / agency it was said it couldn’t say these types of planes are safe because of it.
- Comment on Supermarkets destroy food if it doesn't sell. We can always feed the world. We just don't. 1 month ago:
We have a couple of services where I’m at now, where as food approaches its best before date, it goes into the app where you can order it at a discount and then go pick it up in store. If it can be frozen, they’ll also freeze it to prolong its shelf life.
I once got a large box of like 50 frozen burgers (frozen by default, not fresh to frozen) for like 80% off because they’d reached the best before on the box. They weren’t freezer burned or anything like that, they were perfect.
A lot of places would have just thrown that out.
- Comment on Electronic Arts has launched EA Advertising, a way for brands to integrate ads in games 1 month ago:
Im still baffled by all the money some games make off cosmetics.
Cosmetics in paid loot boxes are a serious issue, but if you can make money to help pay for your game with cosmetics, all the more power to ya, but i don’t understand it hah.

They could offer it for free instead with that.

But now you might just be feeding them without them seeing it as a friendly action and get no benefits.

If Nintendo didn’t have so many good exclusives, it doesn’t make that much sense to get ya.
- Comment on The rich convinced us that taxing them is too complicated but everyday people can be taxed pretty easily 2 months ago:
If you can’t figure out how to turn enough profit on your $10B company to pay the wealth tax, then you have to sell enough of it to pay the tax, and someone else gets more say in how the company runs.
What’s actually more likely to happen is executives would take a higher salary to pay the taxes and pay their employees less, because the last thing they want to do is be forced to sell shares which is the same as giving up ownership and control of their company at that level.
So yes there might be more taxes, but itd be at the disadvantage of the employees, and the government will give it all to DND anyway and you’ll never see a dime of it.
- Comment on The rich convinced us that taxing them is too complicated but everyday people can be taxed pretty easily 2 months ago:
This is where I stand on it. Charging taxes on unrealized gains is never going to happen, and its not like we’re going to give them a refund if it swings the other way.
Taxing collateralizion and usage of the unrealized gains would be massive, and if they don’t like the new system, then sell them and pay taxes like everyone else.
- Comment on An 82-year-old YouTuber grandma was raided by police and SWATs during her live stream last night where she plays Minecraft to raise money for her grandsons cancer. Authorities brought 20 police cars 2 months ago:
It really depends on what the call in was.
If someone says there’s an active threat and their life is in danger, sending 1 car would would be gross negligence.
Now, this call, seems excessive.

So what youre saying is it was gods will for the church to decline and it was done via the plague which must have come from God if everything is part of God’s plan, which means God wanted fewer followers and eventually have none?

Ive had it in my car for 7 years and zero flaking and feels great. Thats definitely specific to the quality you have.

They could just let you rot in obscurity.

- Comment on I was on social media before web browsers existed. I am Legion. 5 months ago:
Ive been around the internet since early dial up days, and while I haven’t used every social platform that appeared, Facebook was the one where I saw everyone was really just posting their projected self, the world is amazing fake lives. I dont think it necessarily started immediately like that, but it quickly became that.
