Turkey_Titty_city,

all Tinder cares about is keeping you swiping, with your eyes on the screen.

Turkey_Titty_city,

ignorance and paranoia about radioactivity go hand in hand.

i know so many otherwise smart people who lose it on this issue. because they just think any radioactivity = destroy planet forever . completely ignorant to how it actually works, and just think every power plant must eventually chernobyl and that one barrel of nuclear waste is enough to destroy 1000s of miles or something equally absurd.

totally sad.

Turkey_Titty_city,

china is causing a fuss for political gain. a huge chunk of their fishing practices are illegal and violates international law anyway. their concern is theatrics to drum up their anti-japanese nationalism.

Turkey_Titty_city,

which is why people want to be rich. it's way bigger benefit than the money.

people think about all the maga types that are 'one day millionaires'. nah, it's not about being rich for money, it's about they back a guy who does the stuff they wish they could personally do. like be rabidly racist in public without consequence

It's the protocols more than anything.

stuff with this speeds existed already, it just wasn't via USB. it was expensive proprietary protocols and hardware and cables. USB is an open standard design for consumer use, and not for giant corps with datacenters who can pay $2,000 for a single data cable.

Thunderbolt is basically a data-transfer focused version of USB, and just requires a different controller that supports the new protocols to achieve the higher speeds.

multiplexing is one way to achieve higher bandwidth and throughput over the same physical cable.

The GDP gap between Europe and the United States is now 80% (www.lemonde.fr)

It was early this summer, before Americans started crossing the Atlantic to savor the sweetness of European life. Prices are very much affordable for them there, and the Wall Street Journal gave the reason as being Europe’s inexorable impoverishment: “Europeans are facing a new economic reality, one they haven’t...

Turkey_Titty_city,

GDP is a useless metric. Most USA GDP grown is from stupid shit like housing prices being super inflated.

Do younger people go home earlier now? Or go out less? Is it since COVID?

Someone asked a question about how frequently young people have time to socialize and it made me think about what people do with their evenings. I recently asked my son to go to a concert (free ticket to see a band i know he likes) and he declined because it was an hour away on a weeknight. If we invite our kids or niece/nephew...

I don't go out because post covid everything costs 100% more and is 100% worse.

I spend $60 on two beers and a mcdonalds quality hamburger + fries last week. F that. in 2019 that would have been 20 bucks. in a place that was crowded and it took me like 30m to get my food. and almost every place is like that now. double the price for half the service or quality of product.

if going out was fun and affordable I'd do it more. I went out regularly before covid. I just don't want to have to drop 30-40 bucks for a single beer and junk food meal anytime i want to socialize.

all my old spots that were affordable, chill and fun, are gone. i used to hang out in coffee shops after work because they were quiet and i don't drink.. now they all closed at 2pm. bars are noisy and crowded and want $15+ for a cocktail and $10 for a budweiser. that used to be $10 and $5.

Turkey_Titty_city,

a lot of people don't care about animals. they just want something cute to own and brag about.

or that it's trendy and hip. like doodles. half the dogs at my park are doodles because they are a designer status dog breed.

Turkey_Titty_city,

every field trip i had had a permission form with the cost on it that had to be signed by a guardian or you were not allowed to go.

Turkey_Titty_city,

I live in a 'communist' city.

Most people here are driving huge honkin' SUVs and are screaming about the lack of street parking, even though they have driveways.

The entitlement is pure insanity, and this is from so called leftist liberals. The same ones who support BLM, but viciously oppose any new development, especially anything that with affordable housing units.

Truth is a lot of lefties become conservatives when they the issues affect them.

Turkey_Titty_city,

because the us govt doesn't give a shit about monopolies.

EU might get up in their shit though.

It's exhausting dealing with entitled idiots who are too cheap to see how expensive their crappy bike actually is to own.

Seriously. So many people would be better off just buying a $1000 bike, but they'd rather hold on to their cheap crappy bike and pay $100s each year to tune/replace, etc all the cheap crappy parts, and then blame the mechanic when it falls out of tune a few weeks later....

Turkey_Titty_city,

Since the 70s. 50 years ago.

Jimmy Carter make a speech about it. Everyone laughed at him and called him a pussy.

Turkey_Titty_city,

he's a TED talk basically.

most TED talks are like that. sophisticated sounding gibberish that has no real world merit, but sounds really cool and interesting.

Turkey_Titty_city,

There are countries with way better CEO to work pay ratios. But in the USA we act like it's totally normal to have these huge wealth gaps, when in reality they are recent phenonemon and the only other era they were repeated was the gilded age which resulted in a decades long depression that was only ended by a world war.

Turkey_Titty_city,

been here a month or so.

def seeing more abusive people show up, and nutcases who are spamming their ideological nonsense on every post who have think being first to post about their victim hood as misunderstood holders of THE TRUTH is some sort of relevant commentary and they are being oppressed by some other group of a different ideology.

this thread seems to be exhibit A.

also way more low quality shit posting and memes which i have to spend several minutes blocking each morning.

Turkey_Titty_city,

gender neutral bathrooms are the answer here.

most public places have them now, don't get why you can't have one in a school.

Turkey_Titty_city,

My dad used to talk about how democrats were evil and should be put in camps to be exterminated. And the worst thing the country ever did was allow women to vote.

I used to think he was an insane person. Now I realize he simply was a republican ahead of his time. He died in 2012.

Turkey_Titty_city,

100%. the level of comments kbin are blowing my mind, actual discussion. debate. different perspectives. people writing full sentences and explaining their thoughts.

instead of people being banned and insulted for having a differing opinion. or being told they are mean and bad people.

the 3rd grader level of discourse on reddit didn't exist 10+ years ago. it happened only after the site because a household name.

Turkey_Titty_city,

good. hopefully the media can stop pushing this nonsense 24/7. i wonder if the families will pay for the millions of dollars wasted in searching for these selfish idiots? who knowingly signed up for this death trap?

at least emergency services in my area charge idiots for rescues. fuck around in the White mountains and you can end up paying six figures or more for a rescue. which is as it should be. they don't however, charge for legitimate rescues.
