  • Virtually every scam used today was first invented back when cash was the only form of payment.

  • Let everyone carry around large amounts of cash on a regular basis, there is no way that could be exploited by criminals. Or even better, valuable metals like gold so the stolen money is not even traceable as being stolen.

  • The only thing anyone is scared about with Bitcoin is that it will burn so much energy that it will accelerate climate change. As a currency it failed years ago in case you haven't noticed.

  • 2000 was a leap year because it was divisible by 400 even though years divisible by 100 are not leap years.

  • And what do you suggest instead if previous tactics clearly are not working?

  • If that was true the farmer protests which are using a tone much rougher than any of the environmental ones would be treated even worse but they are not.

  • Nobody is going to listen to the person politely asking to be listened to either.

  • It is not just Trump either, could be DeSantis or Abbot next or one of the other younger crazies like Marjorie Taylor Green, Matt Gaetz,...

  • Russia has very little other than natural resources. In particular they lack a lot of the later parts of production chains to make use of many of those resources to produce modern goods.

  • More importantly if you lose the ability to buy something for a month that isn't so bad since most things you bought before will probably last another month, but if you lose it for two years we have a different story.

  • The corrupt conservatives and neoliberals are merely two sides of the same coin. One is about not introducing new regulations the industry doesn't like, the other about removing those regulations if they managed to get passed anyway.

  • Especially today or are they going to provide uniform phones, social media pictures,... too?

  • I bet he wishes he could just throw that particular idea out of the window.

  • If they get away with it in Ukraine, absolutely. They might pick a slightly smaller target next time but there are plenty of those around.

  • I consider not wanting to be invaded by Russia a core European value too though I wouldn't usually phrase it like that.

  • I don't think most people are worried about the US running out in the near future. It is more deliberate decisions and problems during shipping that are a reason to become independent of their deliveries as well, not just of Russia's.

  • Or, more importantly, make it easier for the Russian propaganda machine to keep their own citizens isolated and completely at the mercy of state-run propaganda outlets.

  • More than 9 million people of working age have dropped out of the jobs market. The economically inactive population has increased by 884,000 since before the pandemic.

    Looks like those 9 millions miraculously turned into 10% of themselves on the way from "people of working age" to "economically inactive population", wonder how that happened.
