Wait your hot take is “yes I agree, cut my government pension fund so that my EMPLOYER doesn’t have to pay more taxes”??

This isn’t you getting more in your paycheck now. This is your employer not having to pay as much in taxes. They will almost definitely not give you that money.

Sure I mean, the stock market might go up a bit for a little while with this extra cash flow, but eventually those people who would rely on the government pension fund will need to draw money from SOMETHING. Then those market gains will crash.

In what way is this beneficial beyond “stock market will go up a couple more years”? Which, by the way, unless you already have close to enough to retire now, just makes it MORE expensive for you to buy.

I think that’s incorrect. Not against the honey, but the reasoning. I think it can harbor anaerobic bacteria which the child’s immune system is not ready to handle.

My wife and I were fine with a small wedding, but her parents wanted to invite all their friends to a lavish event. So they booked a very expensive place with the food and told us that was their contribution. We just had to pay for everything else. The photographer, the DJ, the cake, miscellaneous expenses. It all added up. I think we ended up paying around the same as they did, which was approximately double what we had budgeted for our small wedding we wanted. So four times more overall. But we got nice wedding photos and they got their extravagant party with their friends.

Tldr; boomers gonna boom

I think they mean more like “hey guys let me tell you about my new favorite shirt. Super great quality from China. Absolutely love it. They paid me to say that though”. Maybe don’t buy that shirt online based on that review alone.

I don’t know if we want those parts

Pharmacist here. I definitely work the full 40 hours basically non stop and… It’s awful. I don’t think this is how humans are meant to live. If you have a job that absolutely requires the full 40 to be 100% effort, the rest of your life suffers. I believe the reason so many people are able to do 40+ hours is the downtime that’s built into most jobs.

I did 30 hours as a pharmacist for years and it was AMAZING. Like the job was still hard, but it felt like I had a portion of my life that was hard. Now that I’m stuck back to 40 it feels like I have a hard life. I barely have energy to give to my 1 year old baby on days off because I am recovering from the day before. I do the best I can but man was I in a better place at 30 hours.

Trump has a very big microphone and a very loyal fan base. If he complains enough like this, it’s possible someone will do him a “favor” and get rid of the annoyance of the “liar” they feel is defaming their favorite person.

If you’re in America, wait until closer to the election

I’m guessing they didn’t opt in to invest the money anywhere and let it sit in the account not building anything

It would be cheaper at first to promote the idea, then would quietly go back to normal and go up from there.

Mmr does wear off though. Some older Americans got titers drawn and showed they were no longer immune so they got a third shot.

Not sure what he acip recommendation on that is though.

Now imagine that 100 oil employees make good looking ai art to show mother nature either sharing the oil with someone to help them in some way, or even make it look like oil is helping remove a cancer or something from herself. 100 different variations of this. How impactful is your message compared to theirs? Will people even see yours?

What I like about console is the same as why a lot of people like apple: it just works. I have a PC for games that are not on console (eg flight simulator in VR), but for gaming, I just want to be on my couch and turn on the game. No drivers need updating (though game updates are annoying, I can usually delay them, and I can’t mess them up), no “whoops now the sound doesn’t work because I updated something for another game”.

I think foveated rendering also helps with immersion. Being able to blur things you are not specifically looking at and are farther away is a closer match to reality.

Depends on how long it’s been. It was thought the series you got as a child was sufficient, but some people lose their immunity in the ensuing decades. Older people are sometimes getting another dose of their titers are low, but I don’t know the process to get those levels drawn.

It boils down to, “here let me hold your money and if you do anything to scam the system, I get to keep it.”

For people worried about finding the “good areas”, it’s not that tough. We stayed at a Hilton and it was super affordable to use their concierge service to get us a safe driver. He was personable and took us where we needed to go, and explained the safe and unsafe neighborhoods… Though we weren’t planning on doing any walking around randomly or anything. By affordable I mean they only charged like $50 for this guy to drive us for a few hours and wait in the car while we did our sightseeing. We gave a good tip at the end and he was very happy.

South Africa is beautiful and if you can afford to get there, you can probably afford to use this kind of service to be there safely.

I really like Garmin for this. Lots of models to choose from to find your niche (eg, they have running focused, scuba diving focused, or just looks like a regular watch with no gps). What’s cool is their ecosystem is NOT to do much smartwatch stuff. It’s all about health focus. Or maybe fitness focus I guess.

Edit: oh I reread and saw you want blood pressure. They don’t do this that I know of.

I think many require another dose to re-up their immunity. I think you can get those levels checked somehow but if you are older it might be easier to just get the shot again. Check with your doctor obviously

They are still in the prototype stage. If they can prove the physics on small planes, they can scale up for commercial ones.
