Ahh money. The only thing you need to win.

Agreeing with the people that have the money is just the best way to get more.

Oh yeah, as someone that did the same thing it’s insane that you can actually just negotiate your own price and it doesn’t actually take much effort.

But if you already have insurance and it’s bad you will pay more. Anything to get more money for a middle position not doing anything other than scrape money from everyone for only themselves.

I mean that actually was one of the things that made them so great. Tracking, arrival timer and an easy app.

Literally those being things that the taxi companies had to push to replicate is a good thing it’s a shame we had to give up the idea of properly funded labor and job protection to get it.

People don’t know these things or they assume and project the idea all they did was have power and that’s all that needs to be done to maintain it.

Maybe it’s our attention spans are shorter to even deal with it, maybe it’s just that we are so comfortable in our existence plus so overwhelmed by knowledge that it’s easy to just pick parts you like and assume it will all be fine without the struggle. But we are to busy lying to ourselves, and just carrying on as expected I think, to pivot until forced.

Half a liter per kilowatt hour. That’s the average water use

It’s like the idea of recycling plastics with water.
Not all of it is reusable to the same degree. A good portion of water has to be evaporated off to cool down the exterior towers plus water isn’t really infinitely usable in these loops. It gets gross or full of materials.

Another thing that people need to remember is generating electricity uses the water here as we literally don’t use many methods that don’t involve water, we are not on a green grid and neither are these huge data centers for the most part. We boil it for the electricity then have to use additional to clean the system after.

Oh everyone is into toys and roleplaying right now. That’s the theme of the era.

Pretend.

Pretend to do business like your daddy and then sit back and watch number go up. Pretend the new algorithm system is some super future app. Pretend we can just undo it and that we really have control over everything we do.

Heck, even most politicians aren’t actually bringing plans but simply roleplaying what they think is the party or level of conservativeness needed to just make it work a little longer.

No plans. No thoughts towards the future. Just now and how to make it feel more right than be.

Honestly. Probably not as big a deal as we would hope. America rubs in debt. It’s the economic battery that’s used to power the purchasing power of the nation itself even if it’s not a great idea it does hyper charge the government of oligarchs pretty well.

And, with massive soars in Cost Of Living I would bet it’s mostly by the same percentages that the debt is raising even if it’s closer to real inflation and not the lower stated values.

People are incentivized to spend beyond their means cause the forever debt feels cheaper than paying for it up front which makes you then a consistent battery of debt paying back more as you hopefully hit peak production.

The problem for sure is that there is no exit on the other side. And with astronomical costs and no clear way to exit the debt likely you end up to old and still fucked.

The debt is a feature not a bug but will absolutely cause instability if not checked. This might still not be truly in the red yet though.

Dying at work is the end they want for their workers. Especially if there’s a pension.

I see you have also read Boeing’s retirement study and plan.

Isn’t the whole point that you aren’t supposed to compress it cause it will force you to overheat the flower to try and get the THC making it essentially the same as burning it?

Seriously they recommend either using the teeth to cut a piece right from the nug or sucking on it like a straw to make sure their is air flow for the oil to vaporize properly.

This seems backwards.

Don’t worry just buy this wallet removable card holder that attaches to your phone but comes off so that you can keep it separate when charging or putting it down, or trying to hold it in your hand without a big bulky thing that keeps popping off.

And don’t worry, the magnets no longer affect your credit cards just, hotel keys, cheap gift cards, bus passes, etc…

Yeah sometimes classic ways are still best or you find you really don’t need something you give up for efficiency, just do you and it’s fine.

LOL it always the hot garbage that I’m shocked I managed to find that I try to seed as long as possible almost as an apology for making someone else have to host it to give it to me.

But I will say sometimes it’s just a bad quality and it’s hard to figure out if it’s worth keeping it around because it’s the only version available or letting it die.

You can use them to make bread actually. And thicken a soup. Some of my favorite ways to hide them. And that should help disperse whatever is happening with them.

I think you might have a gastro issue with them. Potatoes are so high in basically everything that they can upset your stomach, and it not be a grease thing. Unless you are getting really grean skinned potatoes full of solanine you might actually be best using them sparingly.

You could look into yams. Sweeter but usually still cheap and pretty darn healthy. I would also say grow peas or green beans. They sprout in days and will harvest for month/s.

Unfortunately if you struggle with potatoes you might also struggle with eggplant that also tends to be cheap.

If you have zucchini I love to just cut them in half and scoop out some of the inside center and mix that with breadcrumbs and sauce and some cheese put it back in the zucchini boat and bake them. They store well and are pretty filling.

I get food insecurity. I once had to feed my whole family on the budget of just my paper route because of a drunk Mom. It’s not fun. But if you let me know what is cheap around you maybe we can figure out something if you want.

I have pretty much taken to making my own stuff to save money and bread is way easier than you think if you are ok with it not being super special but with some money saved they can get a little more fun. I just recently did little buns with mustard and onion powder that was way better than burger buns from the store for way cheaper.

Literally yeast water salt and flour is enough to make pizza dough. If you have a jar of active dry yeast it will last forever it feels and if you just put some in a new jar with some water and flour you can just keep it growing forever and literally not bother buying more. Then sauce and cheese and throw it on a pan you had preheating in the oven.

And milk that’s starting to sour you should absolutely try to make into a quick cheese or something cause it’s likely not bad just chemically changing. Just a little vinegar and you can make cheese or if you are baking use it instead of water and the sour flavor actually helps them taste better.

Chive pancakes can also be made cheap and be a nice thing to make a lot of freeze and use as a filling snack/side.

I will add in that adding some cheap meat and some cheap veggies of any kind to stretch a meal absolutely makes it way more filling and can let you get second and 3rd meals from it.

Also potatoes are insane. I tossed a few under a bush during the winter and just realized I see their sprouts coming out from underneath it in several spots. And a single potato I tried to purposefully grow is wildly outperforming the basil I’m trying to grow. A bowl and some straw could probably grow these things with a little water and fertilizer.

I think that’s a nice idea of a statement like Jesus loving you unconditionally.

Not helpful really and probably not exactly true.

Usually it’s a badly designed heat sink that’s meant to cause an eventual short so that it has to be replaced. Or just shoddy low material builds. LEDs really can last an obscene amount of time and they don’t die another part does.

So, I’d say there is some slight issue with replacing all decision makers with AI cause Walmart and Amazon does it for employee efficiency. It means the staff are micro managed and treated like machines the same way the computer is.

Walmart employees are moved around the floor like roombas to never interact with each other and no real availability for customers to get someone. Warehouse workers are overworked by bullshit ideas of efficiency.

Now I get that it could be fixed by having the AI systems designed to be more empathetic but who is choosing how they are programmed? The board still?

We just need good bosses who still interact with their employees on their level. We don’t need AI “replacing” anyone pretty much anywhere, but can be used as a helpful tool.

Porn. Always good for the money.

I help setup ad placement TVs for resort style businesses.

Studied theoretical astrophysics and astro xenobiology as a double advanced major…

My boss used to brag he managed to get the astronaut in his team so, I am useful for facts and puzzles.

God I hate my existence.

Oh that’s funny. I still see these things installed in some buildings but it’s not like I ever saw anyone bother with the “premium water” but also now sodastream is getting in on it for I think a higher cost actually…

Ugh. Please let this whole concept of selling tap water die.
