So… We’re supposed to like the shareholders who keep expecting unrealistic growth forever and voting to pay the greedy CEOs more and more while ensuring maximum efficiency by “streamlining” the business, paying the least possible to any non-C-level and automating anyone they can out of a job?
Sorry for the run-on sentence, but give me a break.
Mine just hit me and did the best they could out there. I don’t blame them just as I don’t call the latest generation lazy whiners. We’re all doing the best we can in our situation given the options we have.
It’s penis. He means penis. Like, probably the length and girth of his penis. No one ever mentions penis color or how hairy it is (those are Jeep guys), just always the size.
The media won’t give me great answers to this question and I think this I trust this community more, thus I want to know from you. Also, I have heard reports that Russia was winning the war, if that’s true, did the west miscalculate the situation by allowing diplomacy to take a backseat and allowing Ukraine to a large...
I agree with what you said and appreciate the insight. Thanks for writing it.
I think part of it from Russia’s side is definitely an attempt to rebuild Stalin’s buffer to the west, but there are echoes of the appeasement that took place before WW2. Crimea was quick and done.
Then, it’s a repeat years later in an attempt to grab more. Thing is, since then there was a lot of election tampering in the form of misinformation and it continues as an attempt to turn Americans against each other. Russia is waging war via the Internet and it’s working.
I think the US government is unable to control it because there is no direct control of social media companies, and social media companies are ineffective. Their interests are purely financial and to truly be effective, it would require significant investment.
The US is instead providing just enough support, but I think it’s purposely done. What happens if they were to provide double? Ukraine pushes Russia back to the border and then what? They continue forward? That’s WW3. Even if they stop at the border, Putin may be forced to stop and may lose power. Then you’re dealing with a potentially worse successor who wants to destroy at all costs…again a dangerous unknown.
They’re doing it this way on purpose to bleed Russia slowly over time. Russia expected to drive a 40 mile column into the capital and finish fast. A long war is not sustainable for Russia economically and the population isn’t interested either (as shown by the huge expatriation that took place when conscription was announced).
If enough western countries continue to provide arms, it will damage Russia for a long time to come.
Yes, it’s gotten stable and there’s good content. Still a lot of 0-comment threads, but the comment threads I am involved in are much better overall. It’s not teen-mob-mentality over here and I’ve been surprised many times over my 4 months. Thanks to all of you guys and gals that make it happen.

So I replaced the battery of my Graphing Calculator and my Headphones just recently, and now i’m left with 2 batteries that I don’t how to dispose of....
In the US, we have stores called “Batteries Plus.” I have no idea where my recycling center is, but these people take all your batteries. I have a box for bad batteries with a tester nearby and go unload occasionally. They seem happy enough to take them.
Indirectly, yes. The UAW may have been setting it’s sights on non-unionized plants, but I bet competition plays a factor in maintaining your skilled workforce.
If you don’t come running when they cry, they understand it’s sleep time after a while and go to sleep. My youngest doesn’t cry at all and accepts his fate.

No, that doesn’t mean we ignore all crying, but there is a difference.

As with all companies now striving to do more with less and do it faster, they’ve released a flawed product. Could QC have found this? Or is quality control something they deemed sufficient by simulation? The tech industry is eating itself alive right now with this crap.
OS bugs are exactly what I’m talking about. The product cannot function without an OS and trying to pretend the overall design should be divorced from it is pretty silly. They knew of the issue and released or didn’t when releasing. Is one of those better than the other?
Shhhh… It’s only price gouging if it’s gas stations during a weather crisis. All other companies doing it during (and after) a pandemic is called capitalism, and it’s unamerican to not like that.
I’ve been messing around with it (got a big class C ship) and it’s a lot of fun to face the enemy while still going in the other direction. I’ll have to try combining too, though. Thanks for the tips!
