I’m glad he took a moment to specify the difference between pessimism and doomism.

I readily admit that I’m a quiet pessimist… but I also hope I’m wrong, and I still think we should do everything possible to combat climate change.

Pretty sure any dairy product and any meat is a non-Kosher combination. I’m not an expert, though.

Well, that makes it a lot easier. Thanks!

Yeah, but to eat Kosher you can’t serve meat and cheese together. If you go to a Kosher deli in New York, for example, if you want cheese on your sandwich they’ll serve you the cheese on a separate plate. You have to put the cheese on yourself.

So, what’s on the burgers isn’t considered “cheese”, or it IS cheese, but served on the side, or McDonald’s just said “fuck it” and serves cheeseburgers that aren’t Kosher. My guess is #1. It isn’t technically “cheese”, but some sort of “processed cheese food” crap. They already do that with their milkshakes, which don’t actually contain any milk.

They probably get away with it because it isn’t really “cheese” as most people define it.

When I started typing, I thought that was a joke, but now I’m genuinely curious.

McDonald’s is gross. This is probably the most severe consequence that the IDF will ever pay.

Meanwhile, some world leaders are absolutely perplexed as to why their citizens aren’t choosing to have children.

My first guess is that it would have been overpriced and deliberately incompatible with existing chargers. No loss.

Seriously? “Thanks for letting us escape to your country, now stay the fuck out of our bar.” Major dick move.

Oh, I know. “Almost seems” is doing some heavy lifting in that statement.

$75,000 for ONE child seems almost reasonable. $22,400 is a fucking joke.

What kind of fediverse search are you talking about? Provide a link. That would do much, much more than any explanations or testimonials possibly could.

Because people are dumb. If the machine knows when someone is looking at it, it can stop doing whatever it does to try and get your attention, and put itself in “sales mode”.

Still, you’re right. It seems like an overly complicated and expensive solution. Old-fashioned vending machines did the job just fine.

Until reading this article, I never knew that Musk even had a brother. Considering the press Musk has gotten, though, that probably suits the brother just fine.

I have no idea

😂 good point. I’m just thinking that since it’s NK, the “manager” probably didn’t have much more freedom or authority than the employees did. I’d be very surprised if he benefited from the embezzlement. I’d expect the higher ups to take it all.

I’m all for worker’s rights, but killing the plant manager was a touch much.

Interesting. I was unaware of that.

If a trail is off limits to motorized vehicles, then it’s off limits to motorized vehicles. That should be the end of the discussion.

If someone thinks the laws are unfair and should be changed, then they should fight to change those laws. The worst thing they can do is be a smug asshole who thinks they’re justified in breaking the law because their motorized vehicle is “different”.

Don’t support corporate “personhood”. Refusing to call Twitter by the stupid name Musk has given it is 100% acceptable.
