I read the story.

I saw the comments on the story

I laughed at the pedantic slapfights happening in the comments.

I came here to comment on the neat story and poke fun at the silliness, to find the same pedantic slapfights here.

Sigh.

Its a .ml user, what do you expect?

They are all for anything thats Russian.

That includes Trump.

yep, economy is like cold molasses.

The presidents effect on the economy only really starts to come about in their 3rd and 4th year. the first year or two is just carry over, good or bad, from the previous admin.

But that takes thinking… and if theres one thing Americans hate more than eachother, its having to hurt themselves by using the weird thinky head hurty meats.

my windows gaming laptop had a 256gb nvme drive in it. I didnt find it to obtrussive outside of the inability to willy nilly install things from steam. I did eventually upgrade to a 512gb samsung nvme, but almost entirely cause i found a sale that was too good to let pass.

I dont know how much space iOS takes up, though.

That would be against the entire purpose of her campaign.

Havent they pretty much admitted that shes running cause republicans have paid for her campaign, to try and split votes from democrats?

You’d suck that up real fast if you had no money and the only place in 6 months thats hiring in your field is a -tian college/school/church/etc.

Cause a persons gotta eat and pay bills.

only one of these problems can be easily and quickly solved by a shotgun slug to the face, though.

Minecraft runs great, I dont know about factorio.

but I know some native versions suck absolute ass and force you to use the windows version via proton regardless. ETS/ATS and Cities Skylines 1 being my immediate personal examples.

Just in time for 32gb to become the necessary standard, so they can still sell you egregiously overpriced ram upgrades.

I wager your dad has a subscription or something he doesnt want to admit.

I’m not too familiar with chrome books, i know some of them are insanely locked down to prevent this… but see if theres a linux distro compatible with your chromebook, and if its possible to slap a linux install on it.

save you having to buy a new machine, possibly.

AI is nothing more than a way for big businesses to automate more work and fire more people.

and do that at the expense of 30+ years of power reduction and efficiency gains, to the point that private companies are literally buying/building/restarting old power plants just to cover the insane power demand, because literally operating a power plant is cheaper than paying the energy costs.

For the common every day person its 3d tv and every other bullshit fad that burned brilliantly for all of 3 seconds before snuffing itself out, leaving people to have had paid for overpriced garbage thats no longer useful.

I think the tankies have noticed, lol.

BUT AMERICA IS THE TRUE EVIL, RUSSIA REALLY IS THE ONLY GOOD GUY IN THE GAME - probable .ml response.

I dont care if that happened yesterday, in 1979, or 1879.

That is mind blowingly, insanely inhuman behavior and I hope with every fiber of my being that this motherfucker gets skinned alive and thrown in a tub of salt and lemon juice.

Do you think it’s fair for someone in Illinois who has no benefit of Florida beach front views pay the price to fix a snowbirds vacation home over and over?

You’re right. Its not fair for people to have lower insurance costs and a single unified pool.

It obviously makes much more sense to pay 3x the amount to a national, private insurance provder, have them take most of that for CEO and executive pay/bonuses/benefits, and then close offices and cancel policies in florida because they cant “afford” it.

Fuck off with your right wing bullshit already. You aint masking half as well as you think you are with this project 2025 shit.

Definitely not $1,100/yr because replacing just a single broken window costs $1,100.

Gee, if only there was some kind of pooled money that people could pay into so they could cover such things. So people could pay small, affordable amounts to get taken care of and helped if tragedy strikes them.

You know, like spreading the risk out, like some kind of…insurance?

And besides, Sounds like you specifically just want to hang people out to dry in Florida for the sin of living in Florida since you conveniently neglected/ignored the biggest part of my post about where does the line get cut for telling people they don’t matter because where they live.

And of course, I doubt you’d be so “Well I dont deserve help cause its my choice to live here” when disaster strikes where you live, or your mother, or family live. I bet you’d be full of righteous fury and indignation if anyone dared to say that to you.

But its different when it personally affects you, right?

Unbounded risk-taking such as insuring people building houses in risky locations will lead to bankrupting the country.

Bullshit.

Its a drop of piss in the ocean compared to all the ridiculous shit America wastes money on every single goddamn day.

So just stop helping people in florida specifically?

Or we just gonna go full republican hatemonger and tell everyine from California earthquakes, To Midwestern Tornados, to Northern Blizzards, and more, to just get bent and that they should have thought to live somewhere without regular disasters? That they deserve what happens to them for “choosing” to live there?

“Why should I have to pay for YOUR kids to go to school?”

“Why should I pay for social safety nets when I’m well off?”

“Why should I pay for roads when I don’t drive?”

Because there will come a day where you may need the help, and it wont be there cause your pigheaded myopia, and then you’ll cry and cry about the unfairness of it all and maybe, just maybe, if you have a functioning neuron in that brain of yours, that maybe the fraction of a cent of yours that actually goes to help people isnt such a bad thing afterall
