In the US that seems to get you shot nowadays.

Chess puzzles

A political debate is intended to convince voters that your policies are the right decision. Not that they are correct in a factual sense.

If you argue that others should not own investment property for whatever reason but you are a valid exception it’s one thing.

If you say that “look at how much money I’m making, tax me harder daddy” it’s another.

I’m happy we still have two.

Short answer: hard to start a new company that can compete. Over the decades all the other companies have done poorly and gone bankrupt or been bought out.

Not sure I can give up that right where I live.

You could try: “thank you but it’s not for sale” next time.

Of course, an eye was definitely the first thing that came to my mind.

Linux tends to get out of your way to let you get shit done. Windows tends to be a marketing platform for Microsoft products that lets you get shit done.

I don’t see why my office computer needs some xbox app I can’t uninstall.

Without doing much research on the topic I’d say time limit it to x years after publication.

I usually round to 5 minutes. If I for whatever reason need the exact minute it will take a couple of second to see, depending on the design of the clock.

Photos have been staged and lies have been printed as soon as those technologies were invented.

AI generated stuff will cause video evidence to be weaker in court. Other than that we will quickly adapt as a society to become as resistant to fake videos as we are to fake photos or text.

Anyone who only drives a modest amount of miles every year purchase price is almost always the dominant factor.

Most of my driving is longer range, a lot of it in the winter, actual winter, I live really far up north.

An EV that gets me home in the winter is about twice as expensive to buy as a gas car that is good enough, both used. Difference in deprecation alone is more than my fuel costs.

I’d have to drive 50% more to justify electric over gas.

With my driving habits electric is twice as expensive as gas.

This is assuming electricity is free and gas is more expensive than it is now. The electric cars are luxuriously expensive to buy, even if cheaper to operate.

I don’t mind the free food and alcohol.

I’ll read the manual after it stops working. There are 10 pages of “warning: don’t microwave your cat” and 10 pages of what obvious buttons do and if I’m lucky 3 pages of fault codes that in the worst case scenario I’ll see one of them the next 10 years.

Sometimes customers pay me to troubleshoot what other vendors sold them, I find the manual for their model number and basically flick through it until I find something.

The target audience for the gas-station reading glasses are people aged 45+ that need something good enough to read about 30 minutes per day.

If you are near sighed you’ll probably use them all day every day.

Yeah you could. Noone else could would bother to use your usb/hdd/ssd with your file system unless you gave them the drivers.
