Judging by the backlash I saw online on that butter recall because of the missing “contains milk” statement, it seems like few will miss the regulations.

In the long run, looser regulations could prove to be a Darwinian solution to most current issues.

That was a wild rabbit hole…

The Beagues paid 15 cents for [their infant son’s] stamps and an unknown amount to insure him for $50, then handed him over to the mailman, who dropped the boy off at his grandmother’s house about a mile away.

TIL thanks

Wow how did they get this photo of a moving subject in a camera from the 30’s. I’m impressed

Wow, you totally misunderstood the whole issue?

The point of China subsidizing their industry and their universities isn’t so that their people can “buy a new car every year or two” because they’re cheap.

It’s because that way they progress their technology and manufacturing infrastructure so much that no one else can compete. They chase everyone else out of the market, while their companies pull in massive profits and keep the high paying jobs for their citizens.

Well paid workers can buy their own housing without government assistance, but what happened to all those tax benefits the US gov handed out for EVs? They catapulted Musk’s wealth, while the workers are nowhere closer to affording an EV, or a home, or even healthcare.

I don’t know if this is a criminal charge, but if it is, then this is the answer right here.

A couple of months behind bars would be a brutal wake up call to billionaires that money can’t buy everything.

Of course they’d just double down on buying more politicians and judges.

Gotta appreciate the level of commitment on this commit…

Yes, yes it is. And it’s also masterfully done.

Western democracies weren’t ready for the sort of warfare that’s being fought online, and now the US looks like it’s about to break.

Even if Kamala wins, all these accounts will start spewing fake content about election fraud by the metric ton. Last time it was a close call, not sure how it’ll go now…

So let me boil down the list of arguments in your refutation:

• Assert a belief about wrongness.
• Assert a belief about lack of knowledge
• Disregard provided proof contrary to own beliefs
• Present zero proof supporting own belief
• Expletive

Masterfully done, you should run for president. Moron.

I always use /all, out of curiosity what’s your issue with it? I have nsfw hidden, and have been having a good time.

I’m sure they can be re-educated as well as any other minority… (/s but not really)

I unplugged the bassist and people went to buy the album.

Im using Firefox because fuck Google’s monopoly, but Firefox seems to care little for some stuff I think is critical, namely AV codec support. Lack of out of the box support for HEVC and a few others, which my underlying OS supports perfectly, is a big turn off.

May be time to give Opera a spin

Great, as soon as you have that working we’ll just make it useless in Ubuntu and rebundle everything plus their mothers in a snap

I can’t follow your reasoning. If companies cannot own houses, how do you propose this shell-ownership would work? Wouldn’t the owner just be free to sell the house at any time and pocket the cash for themselves?

As for tax evasion by foreigners that own real estate, I mean how is that even a problem? There’s millions of foreigners that do business in the US everyday, plus, these ones have actual immovable assets that can be seized…

Sounds perfect, do it. I wanna see your income statement when you own 20 apartments.

Definitely then the issue lies with click to subscribe, and not with click to cancel.

If the customer is insufficiently informed of any penalties for cancelling, then he shouldn’t have been allowed to subscribe in the first place.

You should get a prescription, it will do wonders to your humour.

Hot take: birthrate is high when it’s economically profitable to have kids - helping hands all around to take care of stuff. When they’re a financial burden for the rest of your life besides substantially worsening your quality of life, birthrate plummets.

For $2000? Is this comic from the 50s?
