They aren’t, player counts have plummeted

Why would you buy GTA 6 after 5 became a live service game? Fuck rockstar.

Best method we have found so far. If you want cookie cutter efficient ass state made beds you can move off to the… Well, every state who has tried has collapsed so you’re shit out of luck.

The beds in that store are for accumulation of wealth

…selling people beds so they have beds to sleep in. Beds that aren’t riddled with bugs thanks to the store not being a homeless shelter.

You seem to have a lot of faith in manifesting your imagination into reality

Says the tankie to the anarchist, both living in delusion of practical reality.

Your cruel maskless authoritarianism will make an example to the world of what not to do. Over and over again people like you are revealed to want one thing. Control without check. It’s why you’re scared of capitalism. You actually have to be worth a damn to compete in a market, but when you embrace authoritarian ideals all you need are friends and guns.

The last two decades of American stagnation in terms of wages and take home pay are largely thanks to the repressive policies of overseas authoritarian “socialists” who justify their repression with the same ideals you do. They suppress their people’s income to make their manufacturing competitive and undermine American labor in the process.

And American tolerance for their bullshit thanks to our naive idea that we are invincible and these countries will “come around”.

I’d love to come back in a decade to see how this all pans out for you, but you’ll probably be parroting the exact same narrative despite continued evidence that a mixed market economy with strong unions is the best structure for society we have today.

The representative is very well aware of what’s going on in Israel and is very aware of the protests and the opinions people have about it. You’re not informing them, and you’re not actually contributing anything by spamming them with phone calls about it.

And if you want to see literal genocide, let the Palestinians rule “from the river to the sea”. What they do to the Jews will make isis look like children in terms of their cruelty.

Politicians have armies of statistics and pollsters to study people’s opinions and feedback.

They carefully choose a demographic groups they choose to appeal to, and they pick issues that will allow them to capture enough people who will begrudgingly support them as possible.

They don’t need the 1500th phone call saying the exact same thing as the last 1400 to understand who they’re representing and what their opinions are.

There are times contacting your representative in this way is important. When your road is fucked up or your local company is doing something they shouldn’t and nobody in the media or on the internet is talking about it.

Or sending a letter, answering a poll, so that their data people can sit and count them to figure out what they need to do in the next election cycle.

According to the TSA frozen water is allowed past so long as it is totally frozen and not slushy and has no water at the bottom of the container. Basically make sure it’s really damn cold before you leave and hope it doesn’t melt on you.

For someone who is a smoker and otherwise would not be able to quit its helpfulness as immensely positive.

Marginally is a massive understatement. Maybe in 50 years we’re going to discover that it causes some crazy side effects, but in comparison to smoking it’s like having a hamburger once a week compared to three a day.

Vaping is actually very helpful and it’s probably helped a lot of people stop smoking.

The only problem was the fact that they got away with doing shit like advertising it to kids and making it cool. Fix that problem and vaping is almost literally only an advantage compared to cigarettes.

And even with more people taking it up, it’s still unhealthy but it’s like mildly unhealthy instead of cigarettes where it’s like oh yeah you’re going to double your chance of dying at 50.

I just bought a couple from these guys, they even threw in a spare flashlight but I only bought one battery so I don’t have a battery for my flashlight and now I need to go buy another battery.

Ingenious bastards.

Have you missed the Republican opposition to climate change? Have you missed Republican opposition to globalization in recent years?

Those didn’t come out of thin air. They come out of many towns across the country whose entire economy once relied on things like mining coal and heavy dirty industry which was all shipped out to China. They are 100% voting in favor of their jobs still.

Also remember that under socialism we are not talking about country level decisions, we are talking about factory level decisions which will largely be decided by the workers. Unless an issue becomes important enough that it becomes a nationwide issue that gets a vote for the larger popular vote, 90% of technologies are going to get trashed.

No it doesn’t, historically people have literally burned down factories and assaulted those who were replacing their jobs.

There’s not a factory in the world with any significant number of workers that find some new innovation that makes all those workers obsolete where the workers go “oh yeah, let’s do that”

There are absolutely zero incentives for a worker too to support such a thing. If you think they’re going to somehow magically vote against their own interest and act in favor of the common good no matter the situation…

Well that’s very socialist thinking from you.

There’s not a worker in the world who will vote away their own job.

Unchecked control of the workers for industry will harm us all. We don’t need socialism we need strong unions.

Hey now, it’s not just LGBT. It’s also:

Christians.

Atheists.

Women who don’t wear the right hats.

Jews.

The wrong type of Muslims…

Vim really is an IDE, not a text editor. It’s usable as an editor but overkill.

Nano serves a difference purpose. It’s like telling someone on a bike that a mustang is better.

we had the technology to move off of them

We still don’t have the technology to move of them. Energy storage is severely lacking.

This is the third big strike I’ve seen and been like “wow this wouldn’t effect me at all”.

Hollywood? I’d rather it go out of business.

American Auto Union? Anyone buying American cars is a dumbass.

And for this one…

Household chores? I do all those myself.

Schools? No kids.

Hospitals? Not sick.

Maybe retail workers and pharmacists. They’d have to strike on a weekend though.

And broadly I’d benefit greatly from half the labor market dropping out. Keep on striking. Never stop.
