I am. The economy has to do with people having jobs, shelter and food.

Lemmy: “I’m 14 and make $9/hr. at Taco Bell and the ‘economy’ is only for RICH people!”

Jesus Christ pull your head out of your ass.

That’s a bit much…

They’re not merely replacing floppies, swapping in some emulators to take over. They’re attempting to redesign and future-proof the entire system. That kind of a big deal. Oh, and it all has to run flawlessly during the transition period.

This ain’t your homelab boys.

Can you make an argument that it’s illegal? Chapter and verse, what’s the law being violated?

He holding a lottery for petition signers. A first-year law student could fight this.

I’d seriously like to hear from you guys as to the violation here. May be some angle I don’t know about.

Because it’s a lottery you enter when signing a petition. That’s it.

The media has been beat up for decades as too liberal. Now, simply reporting the truth will make the accusations of bias stick even harder in conservative minds.

Pretty fucking mess we’re in, isn’t it?

His defenders will ask, “Well… That does seem excessive, doesn’t it?” The racism will be missed or ignored, the service status will be ignored, they’ll try to approach it logically. They seriously won’t see those two items. They will latch on to what they can argue. “I’m just asking!”

See how easy that was? Next one please.

There’s far more to motivation and more pay can actually be detrimental depending on the sort of work. Sounds stupidly counter-intuitive doesn’t it? Take a look, this really opened my eyes:

That video really hit home for me. I looked back over all the varied jobs I had and the places I was most happy gave me what the video talks about. My last job was double the pay and benefits of the one before and I haven’t been less motivated.

Seriously, give it 10-minutes. At one point I was thinking, “Damn! He’s talking about Linux!”

Such a society is not possible because we’re human beings, warts and all. FFS, teach monkeys how to use money and they invent prostitution.

There will always be people who look to dominate others for personal gain. Also, the “tragedy of the commons” is well known fact of life. If an economic system isn’t taking human behavior into account, it’s useless, hippie bullshit.

That’s why capitalism worked so well for so long. Now that we’re into the later stages, it’s up to government to reign it in. When I was a kid in the 70s and 80s, a bad/immoral reputation could easily tank a company. Now no one gives a shit, keeps buying and buying. Fine. Time for the government to step up, but our representatives are bought and paid for by the very organizations they should be regulating. And that last is going to be a feature of any economic system.

Maybe it’s already too late? Seems like it, but then I see people like Lina Kahn taking on Wall Street and Silicon Valley, and I have hope.

Yes? All true, and there are logical reasons for not wanting the homeless around your home and work, exactly as I wrote about.

These are people accustomed to living outside. You really think they will just happily sit around the shelter? Would you?

Well, yeah? Devil and details is what I’m asking about.

Alternately, I’d take an El Camino.

Since the 80s in Oklahoma for me. My dad’s generation came up with this. Thought it was common knowledge.

Oh boy!

“I’m not 80, and I’m not that close to 80,” said Trump, who is 20 months away from turning 80. “I’ve done cognitive tests. I’ve done them twice, and I aced both of them, and the doctor in one case said, ‘I’ve never seen anybody ace them.’”

He aced a test that only shows… Fuck here’s the test:

Recite these words back to me: person, woman, man, camera, TV

Harris could hammer that one home! “Here’s the cognitive test Trump brags about.”

Dyer and other psychiatrists, though, said that test, often used as an initial screening tool which Trump took nearly seven years ago, is not helpful in assessing his current condition.

Seven years is a long time in one’s 70s. May be almost zero difference, may be drooling on the carpet.

“That assessment is given to potential nursing home patients to decide which wing to assign them to, not to someone you want to hire, let alone be president,” said Andrew Smolar, a Pennsylvania psychiatrist who has had numerous patients of Trump’s age and apparent condition.

OUCH.

I got jacked up within 2-weeks of hitting energy drinks and espresso. The headaches were blinding for a day or three. Guess I was really hitting it hard.

Glow in the dark compounds have to be charged with light and don’t last but minutes.

If you’re talking about stuff like tritium, you’re talking about $1,000 keyboards.

Am I missing an option?

When I was a trainer I had a 2-week class for AT&T customer service reps. The shear amount of BS involved in long distance calling and billing was overwhelming.

Know the terms intralec and interlec? (sp?) Good. You don’t have to.

The FBI put on their largest ever investigation. And remember, they not only have to identify these people, they have to identify them committing a crime with enough evidence to prosecute. Not easy.
