Really holding back on saying some inflammatory stuff with you here, but try to look at it this way:
People don’t want to give away their money individually to poor people because that doesn’t work and it’s costs them A LOT individually to support a single person with low success rate. But collectively we can pay very little to solve the problem on a mass scale. No one is expecting crime to drop to zero, but a big reduction in it for a relatively low cost is an INCREDIBLE value.
I would not love you if you were a worm either
lol I think I just realized why I talk the way I do. I’m like constantly trying to pick words with as little ambiguity as possible so people don’t misunderstand me. Yet it happens all the time. So now I often talk like a goofball robot AND people don’t understand the exact intent of my word choices.
I was diagnosed as ADD as a kid, so I’m definitely some amount of ND.
This must be Roth’s in the PNW
Isn’t the point of the game that Dutch’s gang are losing the freedom they love so much because of the encroachment of larger populations and better technology driving that?
It’s kind of a trade off; yes life is simpler, but it’s also far more dangerous - Arther dies of tuberculosis which is something that is just pretty much completely absent in the US anymore, and has been for a while. So just like today, we’re slowly and collectively trading liberty for safety. More surveillance then, but more conveniences like cars and medicine; more surveillance now, but even better conveniences like the internet and truly incredible medicine.
Maybe this isn’t the intended take away, but I read it as a big poetic “the more things change…”
The manifesto and the actual motive can be two different things
Half my age +7 and double my age -7
We don’t really know his target tho, because he was so easily caught. What if he wanted to kill the journalists right in front of his hero Trump as a tribute or something.
So are 50% of RAM processors going away too?
Even offering that concession, which I don’t, that doesn’t excuse the crypto wallet.
This was shitty, but my actual problem with Proton is their lean into crypto wallets and showing that they are willing to bend over for the police, which kinda make their entire differentiation as a “secure” platform entirely moot.
I don’t disagree with the idea that Trump is compromised, probably in many ways. But Tucker contributed and only now is he trying to rewrite his own history of involvement. Also, Trump is just as likely to simply be the dumbest motherfucker alive.
I was big on memebase back then

Really? Because from my perspective it’s only possible if you’re strong enough to set and stand up for your boundaries.
I think that anyone who makes more than 500k/yr should be banned from commenting on the work-life balance of others, and anyone that shits on work-life balance will have all their bank accounts seized and immediately put into an account that funds unemployment in their home state.
In the long run it is also more expensive.
Because that’s wasteful
On psp.
Sure. I don’t think anything you said is necessarily wrong. But I think that improving the lives of many is worth the risk of some criminals getting a bit more at the expense of everyone. Plus, law enforcement isn’t something I think should go away, but it’s disproportionately funded compared to things that actually help many people.
