  • U.S. officials cracking down on people trying to bring valuable eggs across the border

    Jump

  • It's not breakfast without an egg.

    Cultural thing, sure.

    But the pancakes/waffles/cake/bread of any fluffy sort take eggs to make, and in the morning the best thing to tie your leftovers across the starch is an egg. Fried, poached, what have you.

    And sure, there's substitutes. But I didn't grow up with those, and it ain't breakfast without an egg.

  • The ability to be spontaneous in life is directly proportion to the size of your bank account

    Jump

  • Went on a spontaneous trip very recently.

    Spent a little more money than I'm comfy with.

    Truck sprung some issues.

    Saw some things I would never have seen otherwise. Some beautiful things, creatures, happenings, and places.

    I'll fix the damn truck. Make the money back (or so)

    Is it risk, or are you just being a pussy? Yeah, the human world sucks, but you don't need all the garbage they sell you, and there's worthwhile experiences you won't get with your nose stuck down to the grindstone.

    I bet you risk your life, limbs, and liberty every single day driving into work.

    I've had multiple friends die driving. They never thought THAT was a risk.

    Go somewhere you don't plan to. It aint gonna last forever

  • FBI Creates Fake Cryptocurrency to Expose Widespread Crypto Market Manipulation

  • National currencies ARE fiat currencies.

    Like the Chinese have been fixing the value of their currency to the dollar, and the federal reserve does exactly that thing where they inflate it at will. Or keep it at zero, and the rest of the corporations inflate it nowadays. Whichever.

    Either way, it's a scam. And I'm not saying the gold standard was a great idea either. It worked at the time, i guess? I don't know, I wasn't there. This fiat currency situation seems possibly workable, but I haven't seen it doing so. At least not for anyone who isn't already in the club.

    The value of money is all made up bullshit anyway, can we at least get some healthcare out of it? Maybe some roofs? Food?

    I like my friends not starving or freezing to death.

  • There was one royal kid-a girl- who learned spanish.

    It made headlines.

    I assume her accent is so bad as to be largely unintelligible to most spanish speaking folks.

    They have translators.

    Border kids learn both on their own or they starve

  • With all the bad stuff happening in the world like politics war racism homophobia etc. What is some good news that isI happening that we don't read or see about?

  • Ah, typical human problems that disrupt regular power generation is somehow specific to solar?

    Nah, wars and climate change fuck with the grid already, just ask texas. Or north carolina. Or palestine.

    And panel degradation is wildly over exaggerated.

    My old as fuck mono crystalline panels (I have owned for ten years, and they were outdated when I got them) still kick literally 99% of their sticker rated juice. Even when dirty. They're dirty right now. I'm not bothering to clean them, cuz they still kick every volt they say they will.

    They also literally produce all of the electricity my entire household needs.

    SOLAR IS BETTER THAN YOU ARE WILLING TO ADMIT

    And yeah, I probably pwned your ass at fortnite or rocket league or something

  • Imagine, if you will, a world where things weren't shitty for the sake of being shitty.

    Where perhaps, good things could just be good.

  • Element in water heater died; less than two months old.

  • Ah yes, thousands and of other products built to be as or more disposable than the first element that blew.

    Why do the boats keep coming, filled to the brim with garbage you never actually needed?

  • When I'm camping I take a memory foam mattress topped with a sheepskin.

    Which is what we were sleeping on during that story.

  • Insurance 'nightmare' unfolds for Florida homeowners after back-to-back hurricanes

    Jump

  • Are you stupid?

    The vast majority of people living in Florida, didn't build a fucking house there.

    Most of the people living there, can't afford a house.

    Like yeah, fuck the vacationers, they're probably the reason we're reading an article about house insurance. But the people who were born there with all their family and friends there, what the fuck are they supposed to do

    We could have a functional colony on the moon and mars if NASA got a quarter of the military budget.

    Maybe, just maybe, we stop spending billions to kill brown people for no good reason, and spend a tiny fucking fraction of that to make our own part of the world Less of a shithole, instead of more

  • You know, not everyone living in Florida has a beachfront vacation home, right?

    Not everyone living there chose to live there either.

    Did you know people can be born places? With family? That aren't rich?
